Chapter 47: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

"The system publishes hidden tasks, please pay attention to the host."

"Huh?" Lin Yu heard the voice of the system and wondered.

"What's wrong?" Gong Lao was about to step out of the door of the laboratory when he heard Lin Yu's puzzled voice behind him.

"I'm fine", Lin Yu hurriedly covered up, "But Gong Lao, do you know androids?" ”

Lin Yu was concentrating on two things at the moment, looking at the light curtain of the system, and talking to Academician Gong.

【Lin Yu】

[Hidden Mission: Develop Androids]

【Reward: Random Ability Boost】

【Reward: Random Items】

"What, you're interested in androids again?" Academician Gong quipped.

"It's okay, just ask."

"No, you probably want to do this research, right? Also, you've made some artificial organs, and it's normal to be interested in androids. ”

"Huh? What do artificial organs have to do with androids? Lin Yu said in surprise.

"Don't you know?" This time it was Academician Gong's turn to be surprised, but he still patiently explained: "Artificial intelligence and bionic humans also intersect in some fields. ”

"Android, also known as simulated robots, refers to robots made for the purpose of imitating real people, and there are also names such as imitation humans and humanoid robots. It can be very similar in size to a life-size person, or it may not have a human-like appearance, but generally has human limbs and a head and other body structures. ”

"Huh? Then it is ...... artificial organs," Lin Yu suddenly realized, "that means that androids have organs and tissues similar to those of humans?" ”

"Actually, this is nothing new. I remember someone made a android a few years ago, but I don't know how, so you might as well check it out. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Gong." Lin Yu thanked Academician Gong again, and then said goodbye to Academician Gong and walked towards his dormitory.

When school started, I had to go to my dormitory.

Along the way, Lin Yu was not idle, and opened his mobile phone to check it.

On February 5, 2013, the first android was built in the United Kingdom, called "Rex", at a cost of about $1 million.

It is made by using artificial prostheses and organs from all over the world, and has an artificial blood circulation system, as well as artificial kidneys, spleens, and trachea, as well as an artificial eye autofocus.

…… I feel like I'm so backward?

Why do I seem to only focus on artificial organs to treat diseases, but I don't think of this path - androids?

Is it really that the flesh and blood are weak, and the machine has soared?

Is it too late for me to go to the Immortal Cultivation Tribulation?

Or is it that I am no longer a human being?

Artificial heart, artificial lungs, artificial kidneys, three organs.

The stomach, spleen, pancreas, liver, diaphragm, large intestine and small intestine are also missing...... There are also skin, muscles, lymphatic system......

If I artificially made all of this, and then give him a brain that can think......

Lin Yu was taken aback by his thoughts, and he shook his head fiercely, trying to get all this out of his mind.

He shouldn't have read so many science fiction novels before.

Lin Yu especially liked to read science fiction novels when he was in junior high school and high school, maybe it was the influence of science fiction, so he became a science and engineering man, but how did this scientific research become science fiction?

Science fiction into reality?

Does that have to be a three-body man, a water droplet, and then give him a cosmic microwave background radiation flicker?

Then you can save the world by facing the wall, and finally die with the earth, becoming a giant picture scroll in the universe.

Outrageous, no?

Well, it's already outrageous to have something as outrageous as the system, okay?

"System?"

"I'm here, host."

"You're not going to give me a particularly outrageous task."

"Host, please give a specific example."

"The curvature spacecraft, and that water droplet, the Strong Interaction Space Probe."

"Host, please don't be kidding."

"I'm not kidding."

"According to the system's estimates, humans do not currently have the ability to manufacture them, so the host can rest assured that the system will not issue scientific research tasks that the host cannot complete."

"It's not feasible, but it's not impossible." Lin Yu had light in his eyes, thinking about the beautiful black color of the starship, and thinking about the shell full of technology and metal, he seemed to want to drool a little.

Who can refuse a giant starship?

If there is, it must be a Gundam that you can control yourself!

"Please keep up the efforts of the host, and when one day humans can make it, the system will issue the corresponding task."

"Cut, boring." Lin Yu felt a blow, and his starship flew away.

Walking back to the dormitory, Wang Qingxiang hasn't come back yet, so he probably has something to go out.

He cleaned up his things, there was no dust on the table and chairs, and Wang Qingxiang thought that he often cleaned them.

He removed the tent from the bed, went into the bathroom, patted it a few times, dusted it off, and then folded it and put it away.

Lying on the bed, he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Actually, this is all normal, thinking about what the future holds.

Some people say that the end of science is philosophy, and there is truth to this statement, but only a little.

Whenever we think about the modern origins of science and the future of science, we always have to deal with philosophy.

Science itself is very mysterious, such as the four fundamental forces, Newton discovered gravity by thinking about the fall of apples; Faraday's experiments led electromagnetism, which brought the electromagnetic force to the surface; After the study of the atom was carried out, the strong and weak nuclear forces, that is, the strong and weak interaction forces, were gradually discovered.

Although these four fundamental forces have been discovered, it is known that the nature of these fundamental forces cannot be answered today.

What is the universe?

What is a person?

Why do people want to explore nature and the universe?

Why do people study all things?

Why does math say it all?

Throughout the ages, many people have been immersed in these questions, but have not been able to find a reasonable answer.

Does it really make sense for us to do all this?

I don't know, no one knows.

Lin Yu didn't know, he was just doing it, at least someone had to study it, and he didn't know if it made sense to do such a study.

But there's another solution to this problem: I don't know what the meaning is, but I'll give it meaning.

What is the meaning of being alive?

Finding the meaning of being alive.

Since I don't know what its meaning is, I give it a meaning.

Thinking like this, thinking about it, Lin Yu fell asleep.

When Wang Qingxiang came back and saw Lin Yu sleeping, he was a little surprised, but he didn't make too much noise and just turned on the computer to check the information.

No one knows what Lin Yu dreamed.

Does he dream of the future of humanity?

Does he dream of the end of science?

Nobody knows.

Like do androids dream of electric sheep?
