Chapter 15: Sunrise

When it comes to the problem of itself, the customized agent cannot understand it, so Anne can only be in a daze now. Of course, some robots will respond to this kind of problem, but that is only simulated in complexity, and it does not know how to pretend to understand, which does not mean that it really understands.

Fu Bin pondered for a while and said: "Physically, it should be, but in consciousness it is not, it seems to be just on a vague boundary, maybe everyone's point of view is different." ”

"So, if she awakens successfully, then it will undoubtedly be a real life?"

"Yes, then she's no different from us."

You see, the way you define things is to compare them with your own empirical definition, and to admit it if you meet expectations, right? The difference between our consciousness and machine thinking is that it has the logic to define itself, and if the program defines itself, it will fall into an endless loop and thus die, while people will not die, because human consciousness will not stupidly go on infinitely. ”

"Yes, our consciousness is not a tendon, and we will give up directly on problems that we can't figure out."

"In fact, the awakening of the so-called agent is to make it aware of the existence of 'me', but the concept of 'me' is actually something that even we can't define and can't write, so we can only rely on them to get out of that step."

"Wait, didn't you just say that consciousness has a logic that defines itself?"

"Hey, that's right. That's what I said, but I didn't say I succeeded in giving a definition. ”

"Uh...... You mean that our consciousness has the logical capacity to define itself, but it cannot successfully define it? ”

"That's right! I like to discuss issues with young people like you, who know everything about it. **Long said happily: "You see, in fact, the awakening of the agent has been successful, but the software is different. In other words, the same substance, the same body, or the same hardware, but the software installed is different, and the meaning is completely different. The awakening of intelligence is uncontrollable, and in fact it is a kind of error. Consciousness can also be said to be a process that can go wrong, you know? ”

"You're saying that the difference between conscious thinking and machine thinking is that consciousness makes mistakes? Seems to make sense. Fu Bin nodded, although the other party was obviously suspected of being fooled here, and obviously didn't want to parry, but it couldn't be said that his answer was not inspiring, so he didn't expose it, and asked down the slope: "Old Yang, I have a doubt, is the depth of the starry sky here the same as the real world?" Or is there life anywhere else in the Second World besides this planet? ”

**Long was stunned for a moment and said, "You kid, you are very good at asking questions!" ”

Fu Bin sighed in his heart, just yesterday, there was a beautiful monster I don't know how to ask questions, why is the gap between people so big? Well, it might be my own problem.

"Let me tell you, the vast majority of life in this world is actually scanned into data by the earth's organisms, and then formed through random evolution, and a small part is a variety of life forms with possibilities that are screened out, such as ......"

When Fu Bin heard the second half of the sentence, he was immediately interested, but the dragon suddenly braked: "Oh, that's it, I can't reveal too much to you, let's talk about it today, my number is 3329, pay attention to not having prefix letters, if you have any questions in the future, you can ask me again, but I can't guarantee whether I answer or not." ”

It seems that ** Long also understands "Life Simulation and Division", and the information he understands must be more advanced and comprehensive than Fu Bin, but since people stopped, he could only stop in moderation, so he said: "Dr. Yang, then my hyena ......"

"Oh, yes. That's what you're here for, I almost forgot. The dragon said to Anne, "Go to Room 13 and catch a hyena for him, the kind trained with the latest trainer." ”

**After the dragon confessed, he began to think about it and no longer paid attention to people, Fu Bin hurriedly followed Anne to catch the hyena. I picked a young mouse that was not yet an adult, and it was only the size of a mouse, but it looked cuter than a mouse, a bit like a pangolin. Anne opened a terminal next to her and sent a program to Fu Bin's phone, which can connect to a chip installed in the hyena's brain to control it and display its location and status.

One of the distinctive features of this hyena is that it has a black mole with a clump of fluff on its forehead, so it is simply called Xiaomao. Speaking of which, Fu Bin used to be a little obsessive-compulsive about choosing a name, he must be literary and artistic, and after experiencing survival training with briquettes, he is occasionally more casual.

Putting Xiao Mao on his shoulder, he came out of the biology lab and went to Eva again, only to find that only the first novice task had additional rewards, and the rest could only be done as a normal task. In other words, he is no longer a newcomer. And because the polar night is approaching, there are no new people coming in all the bases for the twelve days from the day before the polar night to the three days after the polar night. Because the climate during this time is too harsh, newcomers may not be able to adapt.

So Fu Bin sadly found that his luck was really too bad, and he happened to be the last batch of newcomers before the polar night. In the polar night, due to the extreme climate, ordinary people can't get out of the base, and the atmosphere of this planet is very thick and the wind is extremely strong, which can really blow people away. Moreover, even in the base, the temperature will drop to about minus 30 degrees, so most people can practice or train in their rooms with peace of mind.

During this time, contribution points can only be earned by standing guard or writing models, papers, combat skills, etc., but few people can earn contribution points by relying on the latter, after all, many skills and principles, the previous people have been sorted out relatively well, for later people, this aspect is unfair. Of course, the predecessors also lacked all kinds of knowledge and skills at that time, and there was nowhere to spend the contribution value, and there were many inconveniences, so there were advantages and disadvantages of first come, first served.

Now I only have a pitiful -139 contribution points, which is an overdraft limit of 61 points, and it is too difficult to spend the next ten days. Although he still has 7 Qinghui stones, if he wants to cultivate with peace of mind, it is obviously not enough, and selling them is completely putting the cart before the horse. And that star stone is a special cultivation resource, and it is too wasteful to use it as a daily cultivation medium.

Before the last ray of sunshine disappears today, let's work hard to earn contribution points. Fu Bin took all the tasks that he could take, and all the positions had already been booked seven days later, only the coldest two days had a few positions that had not been booked, and Fu Bin didn't know what his situation would be at that time, so he didn't consider it.

In total, I received two tasks, one to patrol the energy nodes on the periphery of the base, and the other to clear the debris at the edge of the base that was blown by the strong wind. The two quests are on the way, and you can earn a total of 25 contribution points for completion.

Fu Bin took Xiaomao to the edge of the base, and when he saw garbage and sundries along the way, he made a sign and sent a signal, and naturally a robot came to clean it up, but he didn't have to carry it himself.

Not long after, to the edge of the dome, although the base is only about 1.5 kilometers in radius, but there is also a trend of mountains and rivers, the edge of the terrain is more complicated, many places need to detour, so the whole journey is more than 6 kilometers, plus to carefully check every node, so this task is expected to take two or three hours.

The role of these energy nodes is to provide a special magnetic field that constrains and maintains the shape of the energy dome. Due to the large flow of people, there is no problem at all at the nodes in the valley flat, but the form still needs to be seen. Fu Bin looked at the scenery outside, this base is located in a barren plateau, a bit like the Gobi, along the pillars of the energy node laid a circle of steel wire mesh, according to the prompt, this circle of steel wire mesh can be energized to become a power grid when necessary, and there will be a prompt when it is opened.

Fu Bin walked towards the nodes on the left slope, there is a path on the mountain that connects most of the nodes, only a few are built in relatively steep places, and you need to climb up to check. Halfway through, this node was just above the mountain of the mine, and Fu Bin had just finished checking it, and instead of going directly to the next node, he deviated from the route and left the scope of the dome protection. Although newcomers can't leave the base in principle, it's for hunting, in fact, the main role of the dome is to resist extreme weather, and it can't block creatures from entering and leaving, and the creatures on the edge of the base have long been cleared. So in good weather, there isn't much difference between the inside and outside of the edge of the dome shroud.

It was very windy outside, and the temperature was obviously more than ten degrees lower than inside, nearly minus 30 degrees, so the bare skin felt tingling, but it was still bearable, and Fu Bin felt a sense of security. It's a bit strange, maybe it's because after coming into this world, everything feels too unreal, and this biting cold makes people feel like a real dependence.

Fu Bin climbed to a commanding height dozens of meters away and overlooked the scenery outside the base. Today is a sunny day, the weather on this planet, the weather is mostly cloudy, there are few clear days, it is sunrise at this time, and it is followed by eight days of polar night. In other words, for quite some time, this was the first and last sunrise that Fu Bin could see, and he naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity.

At this time, on the eastern horizon, a sun much redder than the rising sun on the earth shows a small half, which is due to the thicker atmosphere here. It looks about the size of the Sun on Earth, but it should actually be smaller, or more farther away, and in reality, the star is actually slightly larger than the Sun. I didn't see it, it should still be below the horizon now. The planet at your feet is a celestial body captured by the giant moon, not from the same astronomical system, so the direction of rotation is opposite to that of the parent star, but the direction of rotation is the same.

In a few moments, the sun completely jumped out of the horizon, and the process was significantly faster than the sunrise on Earth. The dazzling light stretched across the earth, instantly rendering the heavens and the earth colorful. The desolate Gobi seemed to be injected with vitality, and Fu Bin immediately saw signs of biological activity on the plains, they were all small creatures coming out of the ground one by one, and there were quite a few of them.

At this moment, Xiao Mao suddenly jumped off his shoulder, and his two little claws frantically gouged up on the sandstone next to him.
