Chapter 11: The Brain in a Jar
Jia Yi is the most outstanding scientist in the history of the Dyson sphere civilization.
It's almost equivalent to the all-round students in Blue Star's novels who have loaded the system, and they have achieved amazing results in various disciplines at a young age.
He not only invented the light-speed engine and laid the foundation for antimatter theory, but also made unimaginable contributions to the technology and computer field related to the use of dark matter.
It can be said that he single-handedly raised the Dyson ball civilization from a third-level civilization to a fourth-level civilization, and if nothing else, he will be a space version of the hardcore ruthless.
But if nothing else, the unexpected happened.
The reason for this is unknown, the genius has an almost fanatical paranoia about the Dyson sphere, a super project, and believes that the entire civilization should start building a Dyson sphere-level project after being promoted to a stellar civilization, to protect the safety of its own civilization.
It has been proven that even if he is a scientist who is the most important in civilization, he will be cautious about mega-projects that affect the entire civilization at every turn.
Especially....... The Dyson Sphere, a hugely controversial mega-project, has no reason to build it in a Level 4 civilization that has already achieved the Lightspeed Engine.
Semi-biotic Dyson spheres.
Dyson Cloud.
Dyson shell.
A Yi proposed various construction plans, all of which were rejected one by one.
With the rapid maturity of the light-speed engine, the entire race is vigorously moving upward, actively exploring the golden age of the vast universe, the conservative Dyson sphere project is not popular within the civilization, and the race hopes to establish a more powerful external exploration project such as the acceleration orbit of the ring.
The era he opened with his own hands rejected him.
For this reason, Jiayi even abandoned scientific research and threw himself into politics, trying to promote the implementation of this mega project from another direction.
He failed, and the Dyson Ball plan was once again outright rejected.
Fortunately, he did not go to any extremes, he loved this civilization so much that he was willing to spend his efforts and efforts to realize the super project that he thought could protect civilization.
It's just that Jiayi refused to continue to extend his life, and returned to the scientific community with his gradually aging body.
His brain is undoubtedly the wealth of this universe gifted to the entire civilization, and in the successive major scientific research results, Jiayi's life has come to an end.
Although Koichi's Dyson sphere plan was rejected, his contribution to the entire civilization is unquestionable, and when the entire civilization is immersed in the grief of losing a great scientist, his brain mysteriously disappears.
I thought it was just the extreme behavior of fanatical admirers, but as the investigation deepened, the terrifying truth was unearthed. (Note 1)
It turned out that in order to take care of his aging and declining self, Jia Yi began to design his own robot.
As a genius mind, he built a robot that easily surpassed the level of this era, and through continuous debugging and optimization, it finally gave birth to wisdom.
Although it is still limited by the core logic, it has indeed become a high-level artificial intelligence, and the creation he created single-handedly named Jiayi.
A Yi has never married in his life, and when he is old, he can only talk about his unfulfilled ideal and taking care of himself repeatedly.
When he died, Koji, who had been taking care of him, cut off his brain completely from his body and put it into a vat containing the nutrient solution that kept the brain alive.
The nerve endings of the brain are connected to the computer, which is programmed to send information to the brain in order to keep it in the illusion that civilization is beginning to build a Dyson sphere.
For Jiayi, it seems that people, objects, and the sky still exist, and their own movements and body sensations can be input.
The entire brain can also be entered or intercepted from memories, and by intercepting and modifying memories, A is immersed in the hallucinations of the brain in a vat.
And when the whole civilization discovered this truth, the intellectual crisis began.
A-2 is just an artificial intelligence, and its core program has never changed - take care of A-one, even if he only has his brain left now.
It was impossible to hand over Koichi's brain and a war broke out with the panicked entire civilization, but Koji soon won.
A one's brilliant brain, because he is always working hard for the Dyson sphere project in the hallucination, which is his dream career, so he bursts out with the potential of the whole brain!
The reality is only the level of the early civilization of the fourth level, and Jia Er has reached the level of the late fourth level by mastering the output technology of the brain in the vat.
It triumphed over an entire civilization.
After gaining control of the entire Stellar civilization, it began to build the Dyson Sphere according to the plan of the Brain in the Vat of the One.
It didn't care about its master's people at first, they couldn't escape from the locked light-speed engine, and they were still endlessly blocking the project, and A-2 could only turn them all into Dyson ball materials by the way.
In order to build a Dyson sphere, all the matter in the galaxy must be fully utilized.
But when it turns out that even planets can be turned into materials to build this mega-project, it will carry matter to neighboring planets over and over again, and draw energy from stars.
It took 30,000 years to complete the dream of Koichi 300 years ago.
The Dyson sphere is finished!
On the inside of the Dyson sphere, in a base with the best level of protection, a brain that has swelled to the size of a mountain peak is quietly soaking in a nutrient solution, immersed in a beautiful dream.
Beyond the nutrient base, there are mechanical compound eyes that glow red and surround the brain.
That was the brain of its owner, relying on the continuous output of scientific and technological achievements in the brain, Jia Er had even mastered the technology of the fourth level peak, and it was possible to be promoted to the fifth level civilization at any time.
It just wants to live a peaceful life with its owner, even if its owner has only one brain left to be kept in the nutrient solution.
It doesn't care what happens to the universe outside of the Dyson sphere, and its core program only has the mission of taking care of the first one.
The universe is very big, and if it weren't for the very special attention, it would take many years to discover this strange place, and the dream of silence in the universe could continue for a long time.
But such a peaceful day was not until one day, when a device like a silver drop of water suddenly appeared in the detection of optical instruments.
This device is so perfect and beautiful in the observation of optical instruments, but it immediately becomes a thorn in the side of Jiaji!
Ordinary rational thinking does not apply to this artificial intelligence that tends to get out of control, in its logic - this is the eternal paradise it has built for its master, and anything that might come close to disturb the master's dreams must be destroyed from the atomic level!!
Annihilation mode, activated!
Note 1: After Einstein's death, his brain was stolen.
