"Actually, I also felt it, and the doctors didn't look at me directly after the operation."

On the hospital bed, Su Yu smiled faintly, without the slightest fear of being killed by the disease.

Her tone was firm: "Although this life is very short, I am quite happy, and I can earn as long as I live." Rather than lingering in a hospital bed, it is better to dedicate yourself to science, and I will sign this agreement. ”

"It's better to wait for your family to come over and discuss it together before making a decision. There is a consultation with experts here, and if you take a conservative approach, it will still be several years. Maybe in two or three years, there will be new technology, and the possibility of cure will be greater. ”

Considering that the girl regarded Xia Ming as an idol, Xiaotang and Liluo both asked him to come over and talk to the girl. But the girl's mentality is so good, Xia Ming is a little unbearable.

"My parents left, and I relied on the financial support of my grandparents to go to college. Earn money while studying, enough to support yourself, cure the ......"

The girl looked very cheerful, shook her head and said with a smile: "I don't want to be a burden to others anymore, my life motto is, I'd rather be responsible for the world than the world for me!" The burden of the burden oh, hehe...... After signing the contract, the medical expenses are free of charge, and there are benefits, right? ”

"You still have to change your perspective and consider it carefully", Xia Ming deliberately scared her: "We want to try brain-computer interaction interface technology on you, which involves human body transformation." While we do our best to ensure safety, there are certainly risks. And if you succeed, you will be a weird person in the eyes of ordinary people. ”

"Brain-computer interface!?" But the girl became excited: "Really!? Is it brainwave control? ”

"Hmm...... No, the direction of brainwaves is inherently defective and not suitable for the development of brain-computer interfaces. ”

Xia Ming began to popularize science for young girls, and she had the right to know this.

Although the direction of brainwave control has been very hot in recent years, it has too many flaws.

When the human brain is in different states, the waveforms of electromagnetic waves emitted to the outside world are different. There are α waves when you relax, and there are β waves when you concentrate. There are theta waves in the sleeping state and δ waves in the sleeping state. If you amplify the sensitivity, you can separate more waveforms per wave.

Brainwave control uses this waveform correspondence to control the machine, for example, concentrating on a specific pattern, the brain will emit a certain frequency of β waves, and after this waveform is amplified, it is associated with the inductive control of the machine, and it drives the machine to do corresponding actions.

In principle, this is only a one-way mechanical correspondence, even if brainwave sensing technology is developed to a very precise degree. It also requires additional brain training, and it is unable to perform complex manipulations, let alone interact with information.

Using power armor as an example, if it's brainwave control, you can't just think about "turning left" when you want the armor to cooperate with you to do the "left turn". Because instructions such as "turn left" and "turn right" are the same in the brain's thinking mode, and the characteristics of brain waves are the same, it is impossible to distinguish them by machines. You have to think clearly of something like an octagonal shape or a Möbius ring and have the brain emit a specific waveform to be recognized by the machine as a left-turn command based on the corresponding list.

If you want to use brainwaves to control power armor, you need to be trained by the crew first. To form a mental reflex, you can subconsciously convert the corresponding action instructions into corresponding graphics or scenes. Not to mention the difficulty of training, after hundreds of instructions training, the crew may also become mentally ill.

Some people will say that it will wait for the development of brainwave detection technology to a certain stage. Perhaps it is possible to analyze the waveform characteristics of each idea, so that the brain does not have to be trained anymore.

However, human brain waves are only related to the state of brain operation, and different patterns and scenes will have corresponding waveforms. But when it comes to the content of thinking, there is no correspondence with the waveform. Through high-level thinking established through language and logic, brainwaves must be able to be analyzed, which is a black technology that is blacker than strong artificial intelligence.

Another major drawback of brainwave control is that it cannot realize information interaction, even if brainwaves can accurately control the actions of machines, but various data of the environment, machines and human bodies are still separated. The brain cannot read the electronic signals of the machine, the senses are not expanded, and the environment cannot be informatized.

Does that add that the brain can read machine signals, and the brainwave control is perfected?

Since the brain can read electronic signals, why do you need brainwave control? Wouldn't it be nice to control the machine directly by electronic signals?

Therefore, Xia Ming decided early on that brainwave control was a crooked technology tree, which was used for entertainment, or simple control on specific occasions, but it was by no means the right direction for the brain-computer interface.

Xia Ming's resonance with artificial synapses through QNI is completely a black technology realized by R3AI, not a normal branch of the human technology tree, at least not something that can be made public and promoted now.

There is currently only one right direction, and that is the physical connection between the human body and the chip.

However, this direction has always been subject to the body's immune mechanism, and the human body will reject foreign objects.

The success of Qianyan has given a new dawn in this direction, that is, biological computer plus autologous cloning technology. To put it simply, it is to replace the chip implanted in the human body with the body's own synapses.

As a result, although there will still be problems with the connection between synapses and external information transmission, the most critical obstacle is no longer than directly implanting a silicon-based chip into the human body.

Xiaotang and Liluo's idea was to clone a small cluster of electrical synapses somewhere on Su Yu's body. Using this synapse as a router in the human body allows the brain to connect to an external computer for information interaction and brain-computer control.

After listening to Xia Ming's popular science, the girl's eyes brightened: "When the time comes, my brain will be directly connected to the computer?" Isn't that an electronic superman? ”

Xia Ming smiled, and the electronic superman was standing in front of you......

"Completing the connection is only the first step, and there are still many things to be done in the future", Xia Ming didn't want to tempt her with any wonderful prospects, hoping that she would make a choice with reason.

"I know!" The girl said: "We need to build an operating system that can not only read the information of the brain from the neurons, but also receive electronic signals from the outside world and convert them into information that the brain can understand. ”

"You really understand?" Xia Ming was a little surprised, generally speaking, girls are not interested in these things.

"I'm the number one striker in DOOM5! Whether it's IEI, cicada movement, or illusion stuff, I get it! The girl said a little smugly: "I studied computers, and the EI and the three laws of EI published by you in IJCAI, our school's computer department watched live broadcasts." ”

That's interesting. This is a little girl with a similar thinking wavelength to theirs, and there are indeed many benefits to being able to participate in the experiment.

Xia Ming didn't agree immediately: "We can't sign a contract with you without telling your family, let's wait for your parents and grandparents to come." ”

"Can they go to the institute? Can my friend, come and see me? I don't want them to worry", the girl asked timidly.

"No problem", Xia Ming nodded, what the research institute wants to keep secret is the core laboratory and Char Heavy Industries, and there are not too many scruples in other places.

After chatting with Su Yu, Xia Ming took another look at the little girl named Xiaoping.

The little girl was isolated in a sterile ward. Xiaotang, Liluo, and several medical experts in the institute are discussing their condition with experts from all over the world on the screen.

If Su Yu's problem is that there are still a few years to live, this Xiaoping's problem is that there are still a few days to live.

Xiaotang and Liluo want to introduce autoclonal technology to prolong Xiaoping's life. This kind of case, regardless of the cost, only hopes to promote the progress of medical technology and can find suitable voluntary patients, which is too rare for the medical community. Although it is not as good as the head replacement surgery a few years ago, it is also a grand event in the medical world. As a result, the institute's request for help has been responded to by all parties, and various experts and even medical institutions from all over the world want to get involved.

Now it is relying on chemotherapy and drug treatment to first inhibit the deterioration and spread of Xiaoping's lesions. Xiaotang: They are discussing the next plan for life extension. The first is the removal of organs, such as the spleen and lungs, which need to be cultured by stem cells at the same time.

When it comes to stem cells, this is the basis of Xiaotang's directional cloning technology.

Roughly speaking. Stem cells are primitive cells that do not divide and replicate, and play a key role in supporting the continuous operation of organs and tissues in the human body. For example, hematopoietic stem cells. Without hematopoietic stem cells, once the red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets in the human body are lost, they cannot be replenished, and people cannot live.

In this sense. Stem cells are somewhat like the body's redundant backup system. Moreover, the lifespan of a person is also related to the number of stem cells. The older you get, the fewer stem cells you have, and the weaker your ability to replenish your body's cells.

There are three types of stem cells in the human body: totipotent, pluripotent and unipotent. Totipotent stem cells can grow into all types of organs and tissues, such as embryonic stem cells. Pluripotent stem cells can grow into specific organs and tissues, such as stem cells in the hematopoietic system. Single-potent stem cells can only correspond to one type of organ and tissue, such as skin and muscle stem cells.

Xiaotang's direction is to replace diseased organs with stem cell cultured organs, and at the same time, the tissues at the lesion site are reconstructed with healthy stem cells to inhibit or even expel cancer cells.

Xiaotang is not a medical expert, but one of her specialties is biology, because she studies artificial nerve synapses, and has a deep knowledge in cloning technology. Although stem cells and cloning are not the same thing, they are closely related, plus experts from all sides, of course, with the help of Qianyan, she has the heart to try.

For Lilo, this is not only an opportunity to refine the neural model, but also a good case study of neural stem cells. The research on neural stem cells can be used on Su Yu to clone or proliferate autologous synapses and solve the physical basis of the brain-computer interface.

"Lilo and I submitted this case to Qianyan, and in the future, she will allocate a lot of resources to help us, and when the matter is over, she will also accumulate a lot of experience. If the relevant thinking model and the integrated medical database are extracted and made into a medical GEI, it can be promoted to the outside world. ”

Xiaotang said: "Aren't you going to attend a high-level meeting in a few days?" I think medical GEI should be the highest priority, and you should have a good briefing with the government. ”

"Well, that's definitely a key point," Xia Ming had more thoughts: "I think we can expand the medical research area into a new research institute, which is equivalent to the cultivation nest of medical GEI." We can receive special cases from hospitals and medical experts who have a good relationship with us, so that we can also treat diseases and save lives. ”

Liluo interjected: "That's a good idea, in the words of you Huaxia people, yes...... Accumulate Yin Virtue? ”

Xia Ming and Xiaotang looked at her expressionlessly, saying that they were becoming more and more like evil villains was just a joke, but you think you are a villain? (To be continued.) )
