Chapter 0335 - Life Extension
Dr. Jane chuckled suddenly, seemingly forgetting the fear he felt when he saw the titanium jars.
"I went to see the workshop of the 'Meizhi Life Extension Foundation' and saw their operation once, which is very primitive, a group of people must be in place before a person dies, and then when their client is declared dead, they will use ice water to cool their body, and then quickly carry out cardiopulmonary support and oxygen support to keep his blood circulating. The freezing procedure is then carried out as soon as possible and its blood is drained, while glycerol solvent is injected to prevent frostbite. These bodies are encased in a special material and placed upside down in a titanium tank filled with liquid nitrogen, becoming frozen meat at minus 200 degrees. The titanium cabinets in their storage room are all soaked in corpses like this, which is interesting. ”
"I've heard that just freezing a head can be a lot cheaper, isn't it?" Dr. Liu asked with a wink.
Dr. Jian nodded: "The whole body of 150,000 Gran is not discounted, but if you have a single head, it seems to be about 80,000 Gran. ”
Dr. Liu snorted: "Eighty thousand, it's strange why their business is not very good, there are so many rich people in the Mada Federation, what is eighty thousand." If I were to do this kind of business, I would be a billionaire in a few months. ”
"Then who knows? Maybe it's because their technology is still immature, but it's two centuries behind here. Dr. Jane smiled, revealing a faint swirl of wine.
"By the way, Dr. Liu, since the current theory believes that when the human brain wave is in a α state, the person's conscious activity is obviously inhibited, and he is unable to think logically, and is in an unconscious state. At this time, the brain receives or transmits information based on intuition, inspiration, inertia, imagination, etc., that is, the right brain is working. So can it be said that β brain waves are more special from an evolutionary point of view? ”
"You're right, I've also been troubled by this question, it is said that evolution in living organisms is the result of selection, but I can only guess that β brain waves help creatures escape, and the role of the left brain has been relatively well reflected in social life."
"I don't think so, the right brain is the evolutionary direction of social organisms. I agree with Sperry on this point that his Nobel Prize was not won for nothing. ”
"I know that some people have done some secret experiments to replace human skulls with artificial skulls, and those artificial skulls have complex receptors in them that can directly hologram the position of brain waves, which is much better than the original test effect of sticking to the scalp."
"Do you do too much experimentation?"
"Hmmm! There are some data that show that the subjects are patients with brain trauma, but because of their own brain trauma, there will be some trouble for the experimental results, and it is difficult to find some common patterns. At that time, it was only discovered that the brain's ability to repair itself was relatively poor, and perhaps it was also related to the trauma, and they would not have allowed the use of this experimental skull if it weren't for the big problem, and I remember the lab telling the patient that it was a way to stimulate the brain to make the patient recover, but in fact many cases died because of inappropriate stimulation. We are here today because of the work of many people in the early stage. ”
"I once knew some people with surprisingly high IQs, but strangely enough, their social skills were relatively low, and their lives seemed to exist only to pursue the mysteries of the universe. But from an evolutionary point of view, such an individual is a failure. The most important thing in socialization is the ability of individuals to interact with each other, because you can't communicate through chemicals in a natural environment that is not in direct contact......"
He was about to say something, but was interrupted by an unusual voice.
Oh, what's going on? Dr. Liu suddenly turned his head.
Suddenly, the instrument flashed a soft alarm, and the red light flashed.
"Look, what's that? β brain wave area beats so hard. ”
The two stood in front of the stage, nervously watching the changes on the screen.
Countless strange surfaces of 0s and 1s flashed across the holographic screen, like a green rain in the night.
"It's just a small digital recording of a memory wave, but we don't know what that means."
"How hard is it to crack it?"
"It's as hard as an earthling two thousand years ago to figure out what their sun is doing every morning." Dr. Liu replied casually, "But now that I have her, I can try to import and analyze." ”
"What are the chances of success?"
"It's hard to say that it's unlikely that the same record will be completely parsed by the receptor, and it's not clear whether the recipient's own form of memory carrier will modify the input record, and these biochemical reactions are completely uncontrollable. But we'll have to try, because there's no other way. These are the lost sources of records, with only a few archives. ”
"Let's get started!"
Ms. Jane gently pressed a red button.
One of the lights on the console glows red, and a time countdown appears on the display.
"There's an hour and a half to ......"
"Keep chatting?"
"I remember when I first entered the lab, I was told that only the geniuses of geniuses could come in, so I was very proud."
"A genius of geniuses, it sounds like a product of some kind of percentage."
"Indeed, some people say that the probability of a superior intelligence in the crowd will not exceed one percent, and this one percent may also be blunted due to environmental factors, so the proportion of so-called geniuses is far lower than this value."
"But even if it's low, the population base is there, so even one in a thousand will have six million geniuses."
"There won't be so many, environmental factors plus innate factors, so there will be far from so many geniuses, and some federations will even have no more geniuses after the age of ten because of the system."
"You seem to be unhappy with some of these federations?"
"It's none of my business, I'm just talking about things, human beings will have mutations in natural evolution, but after entering the social organization, they will face environmental choices, and some people will be eliminated, which can only mean that their fate is not good. I've always thought of evolution as essentially a restructuring, and I haven't had much time to think about which direction to go in......"
"In fact, as long as one human being can reproduce billions of populations, I never worry about the future of mankind, only about our current research."
"Sounds like a statement that could easily be criticized by the ethics court."
"Don't worry! We never face the media, they only do bad things. ”
"It seems to me to be just a compromise, because otherwise they don't get votes, they don't get power, and they can't use power to do things that they don't want people to know."
"That's right! I didn't think you knew a lot about politics......"
"It's nothing more than some game theory practitioners, ridiculous and boring political practitioners, who realize their power and needs through the laws of reality."
"Clever words, respect you!" Dr. Liu took a gentle sip of the liquid in the glass, feeling the light sweet taste. (To be continued.) )
