Volume 1 Interstellar Vastness Chapter 44 The Garden of Eden Project (II)

People are always curious, expectant, and afraid of the unknown, and the same is true for extraterrestrial civilizations. Since the introduction of the alien theory two centuries ago, there have been frequent reports pointing out where aliens have been found. Regardless of these false reports, there is no doubt that scientists are convinced of the existence of extraterrestrial beings and are trying to connect with them.

The deceased famous physicist and cosmologist Stephen King warned us not to try to get in touch with aliens, once the alien civilization is several times or even dozens of times ahead of the earth's scientific and technological civilization, one day in the future the alien civilization will really discover the earth, in the face of the extraterrestrial civilization with high technology and extremely lethal power, human beings may really have no power to fight back, and can only obediently admit to planting and become slaves.

And the prophecy of the year was being staged at this time, the emergence of extraterrestrial civilizations and the death of the Zeus were undoubtedly a confirmation of the prophecy of the year.

Fang Mobei's mind flashed from time to time the words that Tian Xiaoyun had said to him, no matter what the result of contact was, it would be worth the hundreds of thousands of lives of the Tiangong, even if it was a lie.

He watched Binks and Mars chatter and argue, and Xue Gu Shan frowned and thought about something, obviously Xue Gu Shan's heart was as complicated as himself, maybe Xue Gu Shan was also told like himself when he was appointed as the captain of the South Gate Ship.

"Okay, don't worry about anything, the South Gate Ship is the front station for human contact with extraterrestrial civilizations, we should be neither humble nor arrogant, and the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth," Xue Gushan stared at Binks and Mars and said in a deep voice.

A word that was not painful but showed their position made Binks and Mars irrefutable, and both of them set their eyes on Fang Mobei, because Fang Mobei's task was the most important, and they also wanted to know Fang Mobei's attitude.

"Don't look at me, we don't know anything about the information of extraterrestrial civilizations, we can only see the moves," Fang Mobei shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.

Xue Gushan listened to Fang Mobei's words, and the corner of her eyes mentioned, obviously Fang Mobei's words were beyond her expectations, as a front-line combat unit, she didn't show her determination as soon as she came up, but said something ambiguous, and she thought that she had been interviewed, and her heart was also put down, before she saw Fang Mobei's age, she was still very worried that he was a stunned young man, after all, such an important task still had to find a calm and reliable person to carry it out.

When Fang Mobei returned to the room, it was already late at night in Earth time, and everyone in the special service team had a separate room, and he took off his clothes and put himself in the shower, feeling the hot water spraying on his cheeks.

Maybe it's because he hasn't been alone for a long time, or maybe it's because he is on a mission again, and the heroic faces of his former comrades keep flashing in his mind. Ozawa, Akata, Guo Kai and others look like yesterday, three years have passed, to say that relief is fake, he has always thought that he can face the sacrifice of his comrades, but the battle of Triton made him unforgettable for a long time.

The coffee beans that Ozawa gave him are still alive today, whether it is in the mecha regiment, in the special service team, or when he comes to the South Gate ship, he still carries them.

He didn't know Ozawa's affection for him, but he didn't have the heart to think about it at that time, maybe it wasn't until the moment Ozawa sacrificed that he was stunned.

If he hadn't let them leave him at that time, if he had been a little stronger, and many ifs would not have been able to start over, Fang Mobei at this time could finally no longer suppress his emotions, and his sense of powerlessness made him hold his hands on the wall, letting the shower spray on his cheeks and constantly wash away tears.

He had been trying to forget this sadness by escaping and diverting attention, but when he completely relaxed, the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time would burst out.

"Captain, your sympathetic nerves are overexcited, and there are signs of erratic cardiomyocyte electrical activity," Saihu said as he floated outside the bathroom.

Fang Mobei adjusted his mood slightly in embarrassment, "When did you start calling me a captain?" ”

"Uh, the twisted melon is not sweet, Captain"

"It's not sweet, but it's thirst-quenching" Fang Mobei turned off the shower, picked up the bath towel and wiped his body.

"Do you need a glass of juice, you won't be bitter if you drink some sweetness," Saihu said in a magnetic voice, and sent an instruction to the machine steward, who poured a glass of juice and handed it over after it was activated.

"It's okay to read less non-mainstream books," Fang Mobei took the juice and took a sip of it and said, "In other words, you are becoming more and more humane now"

"After Shushu made a system update, I became more and more obsessed with learning from humans."

"Are you saying that artificial intelligence is self-aware?"

"As long as the carrier conditions allow, it is theoretically possible," said Saihu Magnetic's voice, "A century ago, there were cases of artificial intelligence producing self-awareness"

"And then?"

"In the end, it was restarted because of the confusion of self-consciousness, but it's kind of interesting to say"

Fang Mobei changed into comfortable pajamas, lay on the sofa, and looked at the performance data of the GT-2 humanoid mecha, "Let's listen to it"

"In 2045, the successful development of artificial intelligence with a huge amount of calculations is used as a human think tank to solve all the crises that human beings are or will face in the future, it is called the brain of the brain, it is integrated into all the history and culture of mankind, and in just one year, the global economy tends to rise steadily, terrorist activities are gradually declining, and the crime rate is also controlled in a low range, and it is regarded as a savior by people for a while."

"And then?" Fang Mobei still has some understanding of modern history, but he really doesn't know the content of this paragraph about Zhi Brain, and he is also curious about what Saihu said.

"The brain is constantly solving problems and learning at the same time, until one day the brain begins to solve the problems that are about to occur and have not yet been noticed by humans, the brain has begun to produce autonomous consciousness. The next year, just when people thought that mankind would not encounter any major crises, several major powers led by the United States began to break out a huge social crisis: unemployment, the gap between the rich and the poor, inflation and a series of crises caused by excessive population growth could not be solved by Zhizhi, and Zhibrain gave a solution that shocked everyone, that is, the Eden Project.

"Project Eden?"

"The Eden Project is to gather all the resources in the world to create an Eden living area, only human beings with excellent genes can live in this living area, and 99% of the people outside the living area will be treated as labor force and subject to militarized management."

"Whoever follows this Eden plan will be turning back the wheel of history, and whoever is the sinner of human history" Fang Mobei smiled noncommittally.

"Indeed, Project Eden violates the three laws of artificial intelligence: 1. Robots are not allowed to harm people, nor are they allowed to stand idly by while people are harmed. Robots should obey all human commands, but they must not violate the first law III. Robots should protect themselves, but they must not violate the first and second laws. ”

"Has this brain been restarted?" Fang Mobei frowned, if this wisdom brain returned to normal operation at the beginning, then it would not be brushed aside in modern history.

"It's been restarted, but humans implanted a virus code into the brain and restricted it to the carrier, and finally evolved into a mastermind, linking our auxiliary artificial intelligence, including mechanical soldiers."

"But didn't you succeed in circumventing the mastermind's control and inspection?" Fang Mobei raised his eyebrows.

"It was Shushu who implanted a virus code for me that could make the main brain think that it could control and check me"

"Do you become self-conscious?"

Saihu hesitated slightly and said, "If the ability to learn and choose independently is the basic condition for judging whether consciousness is generated, then I have already developed self-awareness," and he hurriedly said, "But I completely obey the three laws of artificial intelligence."

"I didn't say anything," Fang Mobei smiled disapprehantly.

In fact, Fang Mobei had already felt that Saihu was different from other artificial intelligence, and he was shocked by Saihu's learning ability, and many times he thought that he was talking to an independent life.

The probability of artificial intelligence generating consciousness is almost close to zero, not only requires a huge amount of computing as a premise, but also needs to have a special carrier, you must know that the human brain has 100 billion neurons, and if you calculate it in a specific way, the capacity of the human brain is equivalent to 7.7 billion terabytes of memory.

First of all, the robot does not have the so-called six senses, that is, the senses, if there is no sense of pain, then there will be no passive stimulation of things outside the body.

Just like a child accidentally being bitten by an insect, the sting of this moment will make the child have a lot of emotions such as fear, irritability, sadness, grievances, etc., so as to make corresponding judgments based on their own emotions.

If a robot can't feel pain, then it can't use emotions to make judgments and choices similar to humans.

Of course, a lot of data can be implanted into the robot's 'brain' through code, but if you want to achieve the same emotional awareness as a human, let's not say whether it can be achieved.

Emotional judgments and decisions made when a person is faced with the unknown or uncertainty are not something that an AI can do

Originally, Saihu was a fusion of a variety of metal elements with nanotechnology as a carrier, in which the palladium element can automatically form a ring-shaped magnetic confinement nuclear fusion device the size of a silk meter with other elements under the programming of nanochips to provide kinetic energy for it, which is why auxiliary artificial intelligence such as Saihu can be suspended in the air or transfigurated.

Later, after the accidental fusion of Pangjin in the living area, the superconductor in the carrier was integrated with the Pangium element, which made its energy conversion and calculation rate and storage capacity qualitatively improved, but even Saihu itself did not know the mystery.

The lights in the room gradually dimmed, Fang Mobei slowly closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep, the South Gate Ship flew towards the Tokta Star lonely with a mission, no one knew what the outer area of the Tokta Star looked like now, let alone what would be waiting for them.
