Seeing that everyone was thinking with a slight hesitation, Zhang Yuan further explained: "I can't eat now because there is no such function integrated in the biomimetic body. We have now abandoned biological cells, and if we really want to enjoy food, we need to install an incinerator like stomach function inside the body, which is a difficult point for the current technology......"

A high-temperature incinerator not only needs space, but also needs to design a series of protection devices, and the hidden dangers in terms of safety are bound to be greater; If it is a bionic biological stomach, the bionics structure needs to be redesigned, superhuman energy does not need food to supply at all, and a few nuclear power batteries can supply power for tens or hundreds of years, so it is necessary to install a bionic digestive system, which is also not so suitable.

"So, just to eat, it doesn't seem cost-effective to stuff a behemoth into your body, so I didn't do it for the time being. If someone is willing to engage in this research in the future, it is somewhat possible. ”

"The same is true for sleep, where NT New Humans have abandoned neuronal brains in favor of carbon-based biological brains. So it's never tired, and usually you don't need to sleep. However, we've made a similar feature that allows you to sleep if you really want to. ”

"When you wake up from sleep, you feel a little bit of pleasure. The pleasure is similar to solving a few minor problems. ”

The host asked again: "So Professor Zhang, has the most instinctive love of human beings also been abandoned?" ”

This is also a point that everyone is very concerned about, love is an innate desire of human beings, which involves the instinct of reproduction. If a person's impulse to reproduce is cut off, it is actually difficult for many young people to accept.

Zhang Yuan pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "The stability of love is not as good as family and friendship, so it has been weakened to a certain extent. In fact, I don't want young people to be impulsive and transhuman. ”

"When you are young, you should fall in love, play, learn, learn more things, and experience all kinds of life. After this, a person is able to understand himself better, and it takes a long time. ”

"The reason why transhumans are called transhuman is because after knowing themselves completely, they choose to become a better version of themselves! The thinking modules, the spiritual qualities, need to be chosen by themselves, not by others instead of choosing, if a person can't even recognize himself, how to choose these modules? ”

"About the desire to reproduce...... Let's put it this way, we also made a module that can adjust the strength of this desire. ”

Thinking module is a new term recognized by the masses.

I don't want to eat, I don't want to work, I don't want to sleep, I feel bored doing experiments, I load myself with thinking modules and it's done, and there are no side effects...... Some middle-aged men who had a decline in their desires suddenly seemed to think of something and became a little impatient.

"This kind of thinking module seems to be very useful......"

"And the longevity of the biomimicry body is not comparable to that of the human body...... Hey hey ......"

"I'm just skeptical, will these features really be needed then?"

"Sounds like a better version of yourself...... Also, not everyone can directly change the past. ”

Many people in society who watch TV and live broadcasts are chatting in private through various means. After this explanation, they were not disgusted by this matter, but felt that they could completely control their thoughts, which was quite a good feature.

Controlling yourself is a very difficult job in itself.

On the TV show, the host asked again: "Do you think that the superhuman model has reached the standard of a fifth-level civilization?" ”

Zhang Yuan was silent for a while before explaining: "We have discussed this issue within our lab, and we have written some papers for it. We generally believe that at the ideological level, superhumans have reached the standard of a fifth-level civilization, that is, in the case of almost immortality, they are able to resist sinking and refuse to indulge in vulgar pleasures for a long time. ”

"As a simple example, some ordinary games are not as interesting to us as they are to do problems; We also don't keep ingesting fragmented and useless information...... Of course, a very good game can still bring pleasure. ”

"For example, the creator mode in the virtual world has a high level of psychological addiction, which is the main reason for the sinking of the human branch of the Bright Galaxy. But for the superhumans, it can control this temptation very well, and it has become an ingenious scientific research tool, which has been tested in the Unreal Lab. ”

"Creator Mode?!" The moderator's voice raised slightly, and he involuntarily repeated it, a nightmare term for many older generations. They can still recall the scene when they first discovered the collapse of the Brilliant Galactic Branch.

It is impossible for the original human beings to reject the "creator mode", a world where almost all wishes come true, and only once you enter it, it will cause permanent damage to the mode of thinking.

But now it's not a big deal, it's really big, it's an unimaginable progress.

Zhang Yuan continued: "As for the progress in science and technology, it will take time to accumulate, and we remain optimistic about it. As you know, the real old fifth-level civilization may have entered this state tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years earlier than us...... This accumulation of time may have reached a qualitative change, and there is no way to smooth it out. ”

"Of course, the final result of the transhuman project remains to be seen, and the loopholes in the thinking will also need time to be tested. I'm not advocating blindly expanding experimentation, and our civilization has been trembling for decades. Everyone can afford to wait, and we can afford to wait. ”

The next session was a debate competition for student groups, which mainly included various topics such as "should we abandon our original human identity", "how should human beings be defined", and "should the future be led by humans or superhumans".

I don't know how many times these repeated debates, and there are only a few core points of pros and cons, and Zhang Yuan is actually not very interested.

It's just that most of the audience still likes to listen to these words, and the students also debate fiercely, all of them are emotional and red-faced.

After all, everything is about their future.

A future that looks bright, but with a hint of the unknown.
