"I found a blind spot, the Empire of Machines, is it a robot? Is that a carbon-based civilization? There's no carbon at all, it's obviously a metal civilization. ”

Niu Dazhi rubbed his chin with his fingers, looking very wise thinking.

"Shut up, can you listen well? You don't understand, don't pretend to think hard, okay? Eve lowered her voice.

Liu Jili, professor of cosmic sociology, continued to give a report on the three major civilizations of the carbon-based alliance:

"The Mechanical Empire, 50,000 years ago, before the carbon-based alliance was officially formed, the home planet was once captured by Palese, causing the number of native races in the Mechanical Empire to plummet to one-third of its original size.

"The mechanical empire has been decimated in population, the productive forces have been severely damaged, and civilization is showing signs of decay.

"And the remaining population, because of the post-war psychological syndrome, not only did the population not recover from the war, but more and more of the population chose to die from the post-war trauma.

"In the end, the mechanical empire had to choose to vigorously develop mechanical labor and save civilized production.

At the same time, all the consciousness of the population in the post-war trauma was uploaded to the virtual world, and the virtual network was used to control the mechanical warriors and participate in the battle.

"Through mechanized production and fighting, civilization was finally saved.

Since then, the mechanical empire has gradually transformed from a carbon-based civilization to a mechanical civilization.

"From the point of view of the native race, the mechanical empire is indeed a carbon-based civilization.

"After the mechanical empire completed the mechanization transformation, it united the other two carbon-based civilizations of the triangulum galaxy to form a carbon-based alliance to fight against Palese together.

"This war between the carbon-based alliance and the Palese has been going on for 50,000 Earth years now."

After listening to Professor Liu Jili's explanation, everyone finally had a general understanding of the origin of the Machine Empire.

"In this way, the mechanical empire should indeed be regarded as a carbon-based civilization. It's just that there is a problem, that is, the current ruling class of the machine empire is robots? Or carbon-based organisms? Fang Yuan asked thoughtfully.

"It should be a new hybrid society, where the civilization planning, war, and production of the mechanical civilization are basically completed by a supercomputer, and the mechanical empire calls this supercomputer the will of the home planet." Liu Jili replied.

After listening to the introduction of the Machine Empire, Eve clapped her hands with sparkling eyes and asked, "So, is there all robots in the Machine Empire?" Wow! ”

The teammates around her all turned their heads and looked at her strangely.

Although everyone has strange eyes, they all know that it must be the effect of her "mechanical heart".

Anyway, this chick does prefer machines.

In her eyes, the spaceship is a cutie.

Then, in the mechanical empire, it's almost a planetary cutie.

"Will there be a situation like Skynet, what if the robot mutinies? Will the Empire of the Machines be finished? "Questions were raised.

In human civilization, I don't know how many movies about robot rebellion have been made.

If you think about it, this stems from the insecurity of human beings about things they can't control.

"According to the analysis of the data we have obtained, the mechanical and protist organisms of the mechanical empire have been fused together, and it is a social integration, and this relationship is like parasitism. In addition, the carbon-based life of the Machine Empire will have some mechanized bodies......"

Liu Jili paused, and then said: "Judging from the social structure of the Mechanical Empire, they have created something similar to artificial intelligence, and the degree of intelligence is no less than that of intelligent beings.

"In a way, it's okay to think of it as a kind of mechanical life.

"It's just that, so far, the artificial intelligence of the mechanical empire is still unable to complete art independently.

Another argument is that the aesthetic and artistic views of the mechanical empire are still determined by the viewpoint of carbon-based life.

"As for the Cyborg Rebellion, it has never appeared in the Empire of Machines, but it is uncertain if it will appear in the future.

"However, from the point of view of cosmic sociology.

"Even if a civilization exterminates one of the species, it will continue to develop as long as the main organism of the civilization still exists.

"If the so-called rebellion of the mechanical empire is to wipe out the carbon-based life of civilization, then the remaining robots will naturally become the main body of civilization and continue to move forward.

"As for what this civilization will look like in the future, that's another topic."

After listening to Liu Jili's answer, the member of the military scientific research class suddenly felt that he was thinking too much.

The idea of a robot rebellion is entirely based on the skeptical mentality of humans themselves.

If the robots really rebel one day, it will only be a change in the main body of civilization.

From the perspective of human beings, it doesn't matter what the main body of civilization is in the mechanical empire.

"To sum up, it can be said that the mechanical empire had to be transformed into a social structure dominated by mechanical productivity after the population was drastically reduced......"

Liu Jili began to make a final summary: "In the carbon-based alliance, the comprehensive strength of the mechanical empire is the strongest, with the largest number of warships, and because it is dominated by mechanical productivity, the production efficiency is extremely high.

"But at the same time, communication is the coldest one.

"So far, the communication between our civilization and the mechanical empire has been in communication with the will of the other party's home planet, that is, the supercomputer, so the communication process is very mechanical.

"However, because of this, we can easily predict the decisions of the Machine Empire.

"The Empire of Machines will always choose the decision that is most beneficial to the development of their civilization, and like computers, they will always seek the optimal solution."

"It's really interesting, I like this civilization, if you can visit the Machine Empire, can you let me bring a representative." Eve immediately raised her hand with an eager expression.

Fang Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "This is a good proposal, if the 'Heart of Machinery' can work against the Mechanical Empire, wouldn't it be ......"

"It's a dangerous idea." Everyone joked.

"It's a good idea, but it needs to be tested. Moreover, beware of the aversion of carbon-based life in the main body of the mechanical empire, which may have bad consequences. After thinking about it carefully, Liu Jili gave an evaluation.

Eve then raised her hand and said, "Can I attend the pre-war meeting of the carbon-based alliance to be held?" If the Empire of Machines attends, I can talk to them about some mechanical issues. ”

"Yes, that's a good idea." Fang Yuan said with a smile.

The one-and-a-half-hour briefing ended quickly.

Everyone listened attentively, as if in a blink of an eye, the report meeting would end.

Members who are ready to participate in the pre-war meeting of the carbon-based alliance immediately start preparing and are about to go to the flagship of the photosynthetic civilization to attend the conference.
