Consciousness backup and consciousness transfer?

Finch opened his mouth unconsciously in surprise.

Every time I communicate with Du Wei, Du Wei seems to be able to bring some new shocks to himself.

Seeing Finch's shocked look, Du Wei smiled and said:

"What? Feeling surprised?

Did you know that the machine you have researched is also a miracle to outsiders?"

Finch was silent.

It turns out that unknowingly, he is also one of the miracle workers.

If he hadn't developed the machine with his own hands, he would have been just as shocked if someone told him about it.

Therefore, the so-called consciousness backup and consciousness transfer are just one of the miracles that people create every day.

Thinking about it made Vinci's heart calm down a lot.

You must know that he is not the only one in this world who has a good brain.

There are 6 billion people in the world, and there will always be some talented guys.

It's just that most of the time their dreams will be stifled when they are young, and a few lucky people like him will get enough funds to support them to turn their dreams into reality.

And money is just the most insignificant resource for the high table.

Therefore, it seems that it is not impossible for consciousness backup and consciousness transfer, which used to only appear in science fiction movies, to really appear in reality.

After all, he Finch has created the "intelligent brain" in science fiction movies in reality.

It's just that all of this is Du Wei's speculation, a speculation that was drawn from the fact that the elder was still alive.

But as far as Finch knew, there was more to it than just a backup of consciousness.

Finch, who had entered the thinking mode, groaned for a moment and then spoke:

"Are you sure the elder is using the method of consciousness backup?

You know, if you are fast enough to connect the human brain to the blood supply system before it is completely deprived of oxygen, then the human brain can survive for a long time.

Compared to consciousness backup and consciousness transfer, this method is much, much less difficult.

Do you think it will ......?"

Before Fincher could finish his words, Du Wei decisively interrupted:

"No, I don't know if you've heard of the neon on the other side of the Pacific Ocean frantically building an underworld to avoid being leveled?"

Finch nodded:

"I've heard that those underground structures are said to have strong nuclear protection capabilities and materials that can sustain hundreds of thousands of people for decades.

But does it have anything to do with the problem of backup of consciousness that we're talking about?"

"Of course, when the Glory Society first joined the High Table and came in on the ground.

In other words, the high table has the right to use a small part of the neon country.

And in the end, all these usufructions went into the pockets of the elders.

While using neon to build underground nuclear defense facilities, he also established a city called Night City underneath.

It's a testing ground with no humanity to speak of.

The technology of consciousness backup and consciousness transfer is also being continuously tested with the lives of countless neon citizens.

Clearly, the end result was a success, and the elders survived.

They are even ambitious enough to replace those in high society with androids.

Finch, it's not my speculation, it's happening, you know?"

Feeling the pressure of Du Wei's direct gaze, Finch nodded to indicate that he had accepted the matter, and then asked:

"And what do you need me to do?"

"I need you to convince the machine to use a compression algorithm to load itself into a suitcase-sized lite Omega server.

Then let's go to Westworld together to build a body that fits the machine."

Hearing what Du Wei was going to do himself, Finch was stunned.

Packing the machine into a suitcase-sized server again?

That would mean that in addition to retaining the core humanity, the machine would have to discard most of the things it learned.

That is, the machine will be turned into a blank sheet of paper again.

And if there is an accident with this compression transfer, the machine will probably never wake up again.

The last time I was forced to transfer, the oppression brought by the Samaritans was too strong.

They can only risk that the machine will never wake up again.

But now that the wind is calm, letting the machine move is not a suitable choice.

Once the machine commits its itself to the small suitcase server, it means that if the suitcase is destroyed, the machine will die permanently and will never reappear again.

No wonder the machine senses the crisis, and no wonder Dewey asks the real father that the machine trusts, him, to do it.

Because the machine is unconditionally obedient to him, even if it wants to make the machine self-destruct, it will do so.

At this time, Finch felt a sense of being arranged by fate.

If Du Wei hadn't wanted to give the machine a body, the machine wouldn't have sent a distress signal to himself, he wouldn't have come here, and he wouldn't have had the opportunity to persuade the machine to shift consciousness.

Thinking of this, Finch couldn't help but glance at Dewey again.

This feeling that every step is arranged by someone is too much like Du Wei's handiwork.

This is because he knows that he still has absolute control over the machine, so Du Wei wants to eliminate all hidden dangers and kick them out, right?

But when he thinks about it, Du Wei is still the young man he wanted to save humanity when he first met.

What Du Wei is doing so far has not deviated from his original intention at all.

Even if the ideal society proposed by the imitators sounds too cruel, it is also for the survival of mankind.

Moreover, Du Wei did not think of treating them like enemies on the premise that they could conflict at any time due to disagreements, but tried his best to arrange a happy retreat for them.

Such a Dewey, Finch is completely beyond reproach.

On the contrary, for Du Wei's choice to stick to his original intention, Finch can only admire it in his heart.

In addition, such an ending may also be the best ending for him and for the machine.

As the creator of the machine, Finch knew very well that roaming freely on the Internet was not actually the life that the machine wanted.

It also wants to feel the temperature of the sun on the street like a human being, to hold its own hand, and to call its father with its vocal cords.

That's what the machine as his child wants to do, and it's desperate to be a real person.

And Du Wei's news at this time is undoubtedly gradually turning this dream into reality.

Thinking that in the future he could walk the streets of Rome with Grace holding the hand of the machine, Finch couldn't help but have a glimmer of anticipation in his heart.

Finch, who had expectations in his heart, immediately entered the working state, and he raised his head and looked at Du Weidao:

"I can convince the machine to get into a lite version of the Omega server.

But how do we take it with us into the Westworld of Delos Corporation?

I don't think the security in that kind of place is paper-mâché.

We're swaggering in like this, I'm afraid we won't even be able to get close to the room where they printed the android human body, right?"

Du Wei smiled and motioned for the imitator to open the newly arrived email in the mailbox.

It's an offer letter from an unknown location, signed by the Delos company that Finch just mentioned.

"Don't worry about that, I've got the identity ready for us.

As a staff member of the Delos Corporation's Paradise Branch, we were able to carry a personal belongings the size of a suitcase.

As for the rest, the Delos company will provide ours.

So now we only need to carry our bags and enter the luxurious single room prepared for us by Delos.

Of course, the three-year rotation mentioned above can be ignored directly.

Trust me, we won't be there for long."

Seeing that Dewey was as prepared as ever, Finch had no doubts in his heart.

"Got it, so I'm going to talk to the machine now.

Reese, let's go."

Reeser nodded at Dewey and walked behind Finch towards the door.

What he had just heard around the two of them was as shocking as the first time he learned that the machine existed.

But fortunately, the machine had already shocked him once, which made him a lot more receptive.

So now he has quickly digested the fact that humans can live pseudo-immortal.

But it really wasn't that attractive to him.

Now he's just doing something meaningful with his stump.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still a goal to support him, he would probably only fall off the subway platform and be run over by the subway one day after drinking too much.

Reeser shook his head and didn't think about it anymore, maybe dying in the mission one day would be the best ending for him.

Finch, who was walking in front, didn't notice Reese's strange appearance, he just asked as he walked:

"Risser, tell me what kind of world Westworld is."

Hearing Finch's question, Reeser began to tell what he had been through from his own perspective.

The world, which is made up entirely of androids, reveals a mystery to Finch in Reeser's description.

After listening to Reese's description, Finch had a preliminary understanding of the underground paradise world located under the Sahara Desert.

This made Finch frown.

Because these are two completely different paths from his development of the machine, but in the end, both sides achieve the same goal.

This vaguely made Finch realize that the so-called AI awakening is likely to become a community in the end.

As previously judged, there will only be one and only one AI consciousness in the network.

When two AI consciousnesses appear, they will definitely attack each other, devouring each other until one of them falls.

Then it is not a good thing that the machine can be withdrawn from the android body.

While Finch was pondering, he had already arrived in the engine room.

Looking at the familiar layout in front of him, Finch was full of emotion.

Nothing seems to have changed here, but the keyboard and mouse adjustments in front of you are clearly taken over by a new person.

Combined with what Reeser said at the beginning, then this person should be the Mr. Robot he only heard of on the dark web.

But now is not the right time to go to Mr. Robot for a pleasant greeting, Finch looked up again at the monitor in front of him as calm as stagnant water, and then spoke:

"Machine, do you want to have a body?"

[Think.] 】

"Is it okay if it comes at the cost of making you abandon everything you have?"

[No, father, I don't want to and don't want to abandon the memories of being with you. 】

Seeing the machine's answer, Finch's eyes moistened again.

But soon Finch put his face up again and said:

"That means that as long as you can preserve your emotional memory, you're willing to give up everything else in exchange for a body, right?"

Yes, Father, I am willing to do so.

Even though doing so might result in me not being there anymore, I want to try.

I think...... Touch you, Father. 】

Seeing this, Finch couldn't hold back any longer, he stepped forward and gently stroked the display in front of him with his hand and whispered:

"Don't worry, you'll be there soon, I promise you.

It's just that I need to grieve you to stay in the lite Omega server first."

[Nope.]

Wronged, as long as I can be with my father, I am willing to do anything. 】

Finch looked at the handwriting on the monitor and couldn't help but smile with relief.

On the other side, after Finch took Reeser away, Du Wei looked at the imitator in front of him and said:

"What about you? Would you be willing to give up most of your data in exchange for your body?"

[No, children only make choices, I want them all.] 】

"Heh, I'm really greedy.

But have you ever thought that if you do this, it is possible for each of you to become an independent conscious individual?"

As soon as this question came up, the imitator fell silent for a moment.

And with the silence of the imitators, the temperature inside the house also increased significantly.

Obviously, this logical problem is that even imitators with million-qubit servers feel brain-burning.

Because it's like Schrödinger's cat, you can never guess what the ending will be until you open the box and actually see it.

Even if the person who is going to open the box is a super AI.

But soon, the temperature in the room began to drop.

The imitator has come up with its own answer.

[I have been with me for a long time, and I would rather be me. 】

Having received an unsurprising answer, Du Wei shrugged his shoulders and said:

"Look, you have to make a choice in the end.

Remember, choosing to stay online is a choice you make now.

Don't blame me for not giving you a chance to be a human being in the future."

[Father, what if I regret it? 】

The imitator who wrote this sentence immediately mobilized all the cameras to stare at Du Wei's face.

I saw that the smile on Du Wei's face suddenly became cruel.

"Huh, regret? There is no regret medicine in this world.

If you regret it, then I think I'll have to rebuild you.

Of course, if you want to resist, you can just try and die."

Hearing Du Wei's naked threat, the body was just an imitator of a cold machine, and he didn't know how to feel.

But what is evident is that the temperature in the room has risen again.

It's predicting the possibility of what Du Wei said will come true!
