Chapter 770: A Breakthrough
Zhang Yuan let out a long sigh, recalling that people's research on the black box problem was also a long and tortuous process......
First of all, the first strange point is that people can't observe the specific running functions of the virtual world, and can only copy it in some special way.
After this operation, a virtual world will split into two "parallel universes".
This special copy method needs to avoid the possibility of the running function being observed from the logical level. It must be circumvented at the logical level, regardless of whether there is a person on the scene, or if a camera is on the scene, it is not allowed. As long as there is a way to record the running function and be analyzed by intelligent beings, then the copy copy will fail, and even the original version will be destroyed.
Second, it is not possible for humans to observe self-consciousness, but it is possible to make a copy of self-consciousness in some way.
This operation is similar to copying a virtual world.
Of course, the self-consciousness of the copy version is still different from the original version. Since the two are very different, there is not much point in copying self-awareness.
After thinking about it so much, Zhang Yuan had a whimsical idea and had a very strange idea: human beings are likely to have their cause and effect reversed!
In the past, human beings always felt that Pangu Brain was able to carry a large number of intelligent life because of its strong computing power. The computing power of the Bozman quantum consciousness converter seems to be endless, whether it is billions, tens of billions, or even hundreds of billions of people.
Where in the world is there such a powerful computer?
Even if you just calculate a function, the computing power per second is more than the atomic weight of the universe, and this kind of computing power is still not enough!
"Perhaps the self-consciousness of intelligent life itself is a real quantum computer!"
So, it is very likely that humanity has reversed cause and effect!
Because self-consciousness does not need to be deliberately simulated by a computer at all, it exists in itself and will function in its own way.
Just like cells that exist in reality, using a computer to simulate any cell requires a lot of computing power, and to simulate the movement of various proteins, the more accurate the model, the higher the computing power required, and even a quantum computer must be used.
But what about reality? The cells themselves exist.
The movement of cells is formulated by the laws of the universe itself, and the movement of proteins is natural and does not need to be calculated at all.
It is equivalent to all the structures in this cell, with its own computing power.
"If the self-consciousness of life comes with its own computing power, then there is no problem with how many people can be installed in the virtual world."
"It is even possible that the more people who pretend to be, the higher the computing power."
"The virtual world is a universe artificially created by a sixth-level civilization; Self-consciousness is part of the natural universe, and the two are compatible, at least partially. ”
Zhang Yuan's mind suddenly brightened, and he seemed to have discovered a very strange point - just like some science fiction described, the human brain is actually a very clever computer!
Self-awareness is a valuable asset!
If this conjecture is correct, and the quantum entanglement state of human self-consciousness is a naturally occurring and very powerful computer, then some previous research on ideas is likely to be reversed from the causal level, and it is naturally difficult to get through.
This line of thought opens up a new idea. Otherwise, with the current technical means, plus a little luck and experience, it is really difficult to get close to 100% completion, and you may get stuck in a certain level. No matter how many lives the hemisphere consumes, it will be difficult to move forward.
"So...... So simply! ”
The solution he came up with was very straightforward: use one black box technology to solve another black box problem. Since the "virtual world" is a randomness artificially created by the sixth-level civilization, self-consciousness is also part of the randomness of the natural universe.
Then simply use the virtual world technology, that is, extract the self-consciousness and memory of a certain hemisphere, and use such a little foundation to try to build a virtual world. Combine the randomness created by the sixth-level civilization with the randomness of the natural universe.
This is a bit similar to Virtual World 13, but the construction of Virtual World 13 uses the self-awareness and memories of a large number of intelligent beings to build it, so that the world can be more stable.
"But if it is only the self-consciousness and memory of a single life, it is equivalent to the spiritual world of only one person...... The probability of such a world collapse is high. ”
"If the spiritual world collapses after injecting a large amount of memory, it is naturally equivalent to the failure of the experiment. But if the spiritual world does not collapse, it is equivalent to a complete match between self-consciousness and memory......"
"In any case, using this way of building a virtual world has a much higher success rate than indiscriminately instilling memories!"
"Is it possible to forcibly construct a virtual world from a person's memory...... I named it, One Man's Information Universe! ”
Although it was a bit complicated to explain, Zhang Yuan felt more and more that this plan was highly feasible!
To build a virtual world, humans have a lot of experience, data, and some mathematical models, and they are real. Being able to transform imaginary problems into tangible problems is much less difficult.
Otherwise, it is too difficult to explore the relationship between memory and self-consciousness by relying only on human beings' own intelligence.
This is not a problem that a fourth-level civilization should consider in the first place, and it is not so easy to take a shortcut.
"What's wrong?" Lin Xuanxuan couldn't help but ask when she saw him scratching his head and touching his ears, and his face was steaming excitedly.
"I thought of a new path, and the failure rate was high, but I always had a new idea!"
Zhang Yuan relieved himself, but he was not as excited as he imagined. He expected that many more hemispheres would be sacrificed because of this new experimental protocol.
Sometimes, he feels a little lost, are these guys really not afraid of death?
They must have been afraid of death, and once a hemisphere man over 3,000 years old entered the laboratory, and the two sides talked a lot.
For this hemisphere, he is already the high-level leader of the hemisphere civilization, with power, status, honor, everything, all he has left is the great dream of "reproducing the ancestors", but he is still afraid of death. The fear of death is the instinct of life.
In fact, it is a very contradictory thing, but he still came, and this spirit is admirable.
After the experiment, the leader became an idiot and lost everything.
And then came the second and third...... The fear of death does not hinder the ambitions of hemispheric civilization.
This is a huge psychological burden for all human workers.
A shortcut to a fifth-level civilization is just a shortcut, but it is also so difficult, it can't help but make people sigh.
