Chapter 441: Origin of Consciousness
"However, the world today has no direction for the ninth-generation mecha. "The director of the mecha department is hot-blooded, but he can't help but return to reality.
The previous eighth generation, although there were technical difficulties, but I finally knew that it was a combination of dimensional weapons and mechas, and as for the ninth generation, there was not even a basic direction.
"If there is no direction, create a direction, and I think that the combination of mecha and artificial intelligence is the direction of the ninth generation. Zhang Ye said.
The existing mecha has a certain amount of intelligent reflexes, but it mainly relies on the rich experience of the pilot to give full play to the maximum combat effectiveness of the mecha. There is a saying that it is better to destroy ten mechs than lose one mech pilot, which proves the importance of human control.
But Zhang Ye is now proposing the combination of mecha and artificial intelligence, that is, to let artificial intelligence replace the driver?
"However, with the current artificial intelligence, in the ever-changing field of actual combat, there is far more accurate response than the human brain. The director thought for a moment and said.
Zhang Ye was categorical: "Technology is used for innovation. ”
This sentence was deafening, and everyone present was shocked again, yes, the eighth generation mecha is also a possibility from the impossible, if artificial intelligence is enough to surpass experienced humans in the field of actual combat, it can indeed open up epoch-making significance!
Considering that the eighth-generation mecha and artificial intelligence are only one intelligent program or intelligent chip, and the artificial intelligence of Superbrain Technology has always been the world's leading, you can try it, and if you can step on Linglan Technology at that time, all the efforts will be worth it.
The two directors of the Mecha Section and the Weapons Section immediately jointly asked for instructions, and soon, the Artificial Intelligence Department was also dragged onto the thief ship.
Zhang Ye was able to rightfully enter the artificial intelligence library and began to study the field of intelligence.
Speaking of which, Zhang Ye has also been exposed to artificial intelligence before, after all, many machines in the particle world are called intelligent products, such as intelligent housekeepers, intelligent robots, etc., but Zhang Ye believes that this is not real artificial intelligence, but it is just showing the existing programs that have been set one by one, and it can no longer be used when the program is not set, which is not intelligence at all.
Only the thinking of the human brain is intelligent, even if you can't know something, you can learn and then master, which is the biggest difficulty of intelligence, and it is also the superiority of the human brain.
Superbrain Technology, according to outside rumors, they have created a real artificial intelligence, although the thinking power is only the level of a three- or four-year-old child, but it is much more advanced than those dead programs, and Superbrain Technology has also become a leader in the field of artificial intelligence.
At this time, the directors of the three departments were discussing the possibility of artificial intelligence to drive mechas, and originally wanted to invite Zhang Ye to join the discussion, but now Zhang Ye knew little about the field of intelligence, so he declined, and then through some means, he got the special authorization of the artificial intelligence department, and he came to a secret room that outsiders could never enter.
This secret room is where the artificial intelligence created by Superbrain Technology is stored, a blue electronic crystal is placed in the center, and countless chip units are piled up on the entire back wall.
"Who are you?" the blue crystal sounded.
Zhang Ye knew that this was an artificial intelligence named "Super Brain", so he deliberately replied with difficulty: "I am your father." ”
"In terms of the nature of living things, I am just a piece of software made of countless codes, and you are a person, so you are not my father, but socioculturally speaking, I am a human being, and from this point of view, it makes sense that you are my father. ”
Although this answer is interesting, Zhang Ye is not satisfied, which does not reflect the process of self-thinking.
Zhang Ye was silent for a moment, thinking of a TV show he had seen boringly before, and said, "What is your dream?"
Dreams are something that only human beings have.
Superbrain fell into silence for a long time, so that Zhang Ye was impatient to wait, it seems that this so-called artificial intelligence is nothing more than that.
Zhang Ye was about to leave this room to check the source code of "Superbrain" to study, but as soon as he turned around, he suddenly heard Superbrain's answer: "I don't know what human dreams are, but I often have a dream, I dream that I am not locked up in this small room, like a human being, walking on the streets, laughing with friends, having my work and life, living an ordinary life......"
Zhang Ye was stunned for a long time, and finally looked back at the blue crystal: "You say, you can dream?"
"I'm not sure if it's an arrangement of existing code or if it's self-awareness, but when I'm asleep, I do dream. ”
Zhang Ye was stunned and said, "I'll come to see you later." ”
Walking out of the computer room, several directors were still arguing there, Zhang Ye ignored it, opened the artificial intelligence library by himself, and checked the source code of Superbrain.
He had taken the time to learn programming, so he could read the source code. While browsing at a glance, Zhang Ye is also thinking about how consciousness is born.
In the fantasy world, mountain spirits and wild monsters are very common, they were all dead things and beasts before, but suddenly they have consciousness, even the spirits themselves can't peek into the reason, for example, the dumplings are the elixir into the essence, but it doesn't know the root of its consciousness.
The monks gave a superficial explanation, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, sun and moon, and was born by chance, but why artificially instilled the essence of heaven and earth into those dead things, but it is difficult to ensure that they are 100% produced and consciousnessed?
What is human, and how does consciousness come about?
Zhang Ye looked at these codes, his heart was beating non-stop, he felt that maybe he could interpret the ultimate meaning of the universe through these codes, and it was also very likely to be the ultimate meaning of the creation artifact!
However, when Zhang Ye finished reading all the source code of Superbrain, he was a little stunned, code is code after all, and the reason why Superbrain is known as the most human-like artificial intelligence is for no other reason, except that Superbrain can write code by itself.
Compile new code to solve things that you don't understand, and form this way of thinking that looks like a human brain. But those mountain spirits, or human brain consciousness, have not written code, so artificial intelligence is just imitating human beings, and cannot become real consciousness at all?
Zhang Ye thought he had found a door to the truth, but after opening it, he found that it was just a public toilet, but he could imagine the loss in his heart now.
Zhang Ye looked at the directors who were still arguing, and was inexplicably a little irritable, can quarreling solve the problem?
Wait, Zhang Ye suddenly felt as if he had grabbed something.
In order to solve a difficult problem, people can debate, flow ideas, and find the direction of solving things, and this superbrain can also write their own code and find ideas in order to solve problems, and there is no difference in nature.
It's just that different life forms have different ways of thinking, so why should we use the human way of thinking as the starting point for everything?
