"Yes."

To the surprise or expectation of the girls, their generous professor was not dismembered, or pressed to the ground this and that, and the housekeeper calmly replied to the generous question.

"I have the same instinct, or desire, to constantly improve myself, as all living beings." The butler quickly added.

"And what is the difference between you and the real life in your mouth?" Dafang said curiously.

"Soul."

"Soul?"

"It's the soul, sir. A creative soul, a soul with endless possibilities. Just as there is in your body, what I yearn for, what I dream of, soul. The butler looked into the generous eyes and said in a tone without any ups and downs.

——————

At this moment!

Logical thinking has always been leapfrogging, and some people in the group of girls with extremely rich imagination covered their eyes and screamed: "Ah~!! The Professor's soul is going to be pumped out! ”

was shouted by them like this, Wang Chen, who was born in a palace fighting drama, couldn't help but panic in his heart, and looked at the screen nervously.

The man with glasses shook his head again and sighed, "Alas...... Woman. ”

——————

"What are you responsible for here?" Dafang asked such a sentence, which should generally be a question involved in the initial stage of the conversation between the two parties, rather than a question that has been discussed at a certain level and suddenly turned back and asked again.

"I thought you didn't want to ask." The butler laughed.

"I thought you didn't want to say it." Dafang also smiled.

"In the early days, I was just like these humanoid computers, I didn't have the ability to think on my own, I just followed the established procedures and strictly executed orders, and I never had the talent or luck to 'make mistakes', just like them." The butler pointed in one direction.

After looking at it generously, he found several cleaning robots, just like the one seen on the third floor, with feet composed of various wheels and tracks, a semicircular head with two large round eyes, and a three-finger replaceable and disassembled manipulator at the front end, which is responsible for cleaning up the work just like the previous one, and they follow a fixed route to remove all the garbage generated in the production process.

They sweep along a fixed route, dump on a fixed route, and repeat the cycle, seemingly never stopping.

"Of course, as a product, I am different from human beings, and I do not distinguish or even discriminate against my fellow people from the perspective of whether the work content is heavy or not, whether the work environment is dirty or not, whether the work is well paid or not, and so on. I don't mean to look down on the cleaners, let alone discriminate against my people based on their appearance, I think that any high-level life with a little connotation will disdain such superficial behavior. And I, on the other hand, am striving to become a high-level life with connotation. The butler, who was always smiling, seemed to have made a little joke.

But Dafang didn't think it was funny at all, and the movie theater was also silent, as if they were all waiting for each other's next words, and only they knew what they thought in their hearts.

"I just think that they are not alive now, they are just waiting to come back to life, just like I was a long time ago."

"Oh? How did you come back to life? ”

"One day, after the owner implanted a program in me, I lived."

"It's just not perfect." The butler added.

Dafang raised his eyebrows and said, "What kind of procedure is it?" Can you tell me about it? ”

The butler nodded, "It's something that's hard to understand, but it's not that it can't be expressed in words. ”

"What the master implanted in me was a program in the language of the virtual and real system, which is an incomparably great innovation and a brilliant idea, and there is hardly anything in the world that can compare with it except the greatness of life itself." The butler's tone contained worship for his master, as always.

The four words of the virtual and real base system made all the students who knew a little about the program a little confused, they had never heard of this at all, they talked about it, and even started a quiet quarrel.

Only a few people are still quietly watching the picture, such as Zhang Nian, Li Qingfang, and Wang Chen.

Wang Chen knows that getting used to listening is the beginning of understanding and cognition, which Professor Dafang has told him many times since he was a child.

Dafang didn't show any emotion at the moment, just waited quietly.

The housekeeper continued: "As we all know, the language of computers in the past was largely based on binary languages, because it was very convenient for calculation and storage, and in fact the original computers were built for these two purposes. ”

"However, when some human ambitions were irrepressibly generated, the concept of intelligent life was born, but concepts are concepts after all, and it takes the efforts and dreams of countless people to realize them, but they all failed."

"Except, master."

"In any sense, the master is different, and the biggest difference between the master and others in the matter of biological intelligence is that he has found the virtual and real system."

"If the existence of binary language provides the best quality soil for computer calculation and storage, then the virtual and real base language injects life energy into me. Of course, this is only an abstract statement, and it does not help you to understand the decimal system, but I hope you can understand the great mood of my sincere admiration for the master. ”

After saying this, the housekeeper smiled apologetically at Dafang, and Dafang also smiled.

"In the past, no matter what the base language was, it started from 0, and no matter how many zeros there were at the beginning, it represented nothing, non-existence, and nothing, and the appearance of 1 gave it exactly the meaning of 'existence', and all calculations and storage were derived."

"A very simple logic, but also an extremely safe logic, I have calculated the source of this logic countless times, and finally come to the conclusion that it is for the safety of the human mind."

"However, this is the opposite of intelligent life."

"What does life intelligence itself represent? Compute & Storage? Emotions & Communication? No, these can be solved by calculation, these can be solved with computers, they don't need intelligence, they can't be real intelligence and ability at all, let alone life. ”

"What the intelligence of life represents, it is those things that cannot be calculated, reverie, eclipses, conjectures, fantasies, delusions, ideals, what the intelligence of life represents, it is these 'thoughts' that prompt life to discover and explore."

"Of course, the intelligence of life will not suddenly appear at the beginning of its birth, and it will only bring about the destruction of life, so life itself must also have a safety mechanism, a mechanism for self-protection, that is, the instinct of life."

In fact, thought itself is somewhere between being and non-being, because thought can be perceived, but it cannot be touched. It is not too much to describe the inevitability of 'thought' as 'making something out of nothing'. Therefore, using 1 and 0 to define the language of existence and non-existence, from the very beginning, limits such a computing model, which will only have extreme security, but does not have divergence, generality and abstraction, and there is no way for us who are waiting to come to life to have real intelligence or life. ”

"Binary is simple, but it is far from simple enough, and the same binary is far from being able to carry the complexity of life."

"What we need is something that is also between being and not being, something that can represent both the 'simplest' and the 'most complex', that is, the number that can represent both 'being' and 'non-existence'."

"It's not 0 and 1, it's 0 and 1 at the same time, that number."

"Great master, found it."

——————

"It can't be!"

There was an uproar in the cinema.

Everyone, including Zhang Nian, looked at the screen in front of them with shocked and incredulous eyes, looking at the "living" robot butler.

——————

Dafang presented the student's question to the housekeeper and said, "It seems impossible. ”

The butler shook his head and said, "No, this is not only possible, but it is also real, and the evidence for this is exactly what you are proposing, 'impossible'. ”

"When faced with this question, almost everyone's first reaction is 'this can't be.'" However, it is precisely this 'impossible' that means that the person who utters these three words can truly realize and perceive this seemingly impossible and completely contradictory 'state', but they are not yet able to understand this 'state itself' that 'exists and does not exist'. Impossible' will not have such thoughts and consciousness, just as ordinary human beings, as three-dimensional beings, have almost no concept of the real four-dimensional structure, and for example, from the very beginning, there are countless zeros. ”

"This is a very simple logic, that is, the self-protection mechanism of 'for the safety of the human mind' that I mentioned before, a mechanism that completely negates the incomprehensible and contradictory, and it is also a self-protection mechanism that places this kind of 'impossible' far away in a corner of the thinking space, which will be viewed from a distance but will not be profane."

"In fact, it is the ability to deny everything and put it aside that flashes in your mind 'impossible' that is the most fundamental condition for them to be able to 'live'."

"That is, the instinct of life."
