Chapter 113: The Heart Know-how

In the afternoon of the next day, the Xuanjijing Research Group of the School of Life Sciences of Yenching University.

"Professor, the Buddha said that the mind has seven tricks, with your years of teaching career and careful study of the heart, how many knots does the human heart have, and which knots are in charge of desire and emotion?" Ou Zhou asked.

Professor Li Qingyuan said eloquently: "This statement is actually a misunderstanding. The theory of seven knots does not refer to the seven knots of the heart, but refers to the skull, which generally refers to the seven places of the eyes, the ears, the nostrils, and the mouth.

The five internal organs are often read in the seven orifices.

Therefore, the lung qi is passed through the nose, and the lungs and the nose can know the smelly fragrance; The heart qi is through the tongue, and the heart and tongue can know the five flavors; The liver qi is through the eyes, and the liver and the eyes can distinguish the five colors; The spleen is through the mouth, and the spleen and mouth can know the grains; Kidney Qi passes through the ears, and the kidneys and ears can hear the five sounds.

If the five organs are not in harmony, the seven knots will not be understood. The ear is the essence, the eye is the god, and the mouth and nose are the breath. The essence of the five organs reaches the seven orifices, the lungs open to the nose, the heart to the tongue, the liver to the eyes, the spleen to the mouth, and the kidneys to the ears.

The lungs open to the nose, the lungs face the hundred veins, and the division breathes. Lung qi deficiency can cause coughing, wheezing, etc.

The heart is open to the tongue, the tongue is the taste organ, the heart is the main blood, the main consciousness, if the heart fire rises, it can lead to red tongue, irritability, insomnia, and in severe cases, faint speech.

The liver is open to the eyes, the mood is irritable and irritable, the liver is hot, the face can be red and the eyes are red, the liver and gallbladder dampness and heat can appear scleral yellow staining, and the skin yellow staining.

The spleen is open to the mouth, the spleen mainly transports the water valley, transports the water and dampness, and the spleen is weak, then the tongue is tooth marks, and the mouth is light and tasteless.

The kidneys open to the ears, the ears are the hearing organs, and kidney deficiency and kidney essence deficiency can lead to deafness and tinnitus.

The seven orifices are connected with the whole body of the human body, and together they complete various functional activities of the body, and the two are closely connected. ”

Ou Zhou continued to ask: "Professor, if you don't have seven senses, why do you have seven emotions and six desires; The head has seven orifices, but there is no door to lust. In this way, where do passions and desires arise? ”

The professor replied, "If you want to have a heart, you also have a heart, and the door of the heart is the eye, so it is said that the eye is the window of the soul." ”

Ou Zhou asked: "The professor's meaning, could it be that lust is caused by eyes?" ”

The professor shook his head and said, "You can't generalize. For example, the engine is the heart of a vehicle ship, and it is matched with intake valves, exhaust valves, connecting rods, pistons, cylinders, fuel injectors, lubrication systems, and so on. Missing any of these components will not allow the engine to function properly. The human heart and the engine are quite similar in that there are more emotions and desires, which come from the resonance of the eyes with the mind and the brain, and this resonance comes from the meridians, latitudes and veins distributed in the human body. These veins are equivalent to the entire lubrication system of the engine, and the blockage of any one of the meridians can lead to the loss of body function, which in turn can lead to failure. Various pathologies of the human body are formed by the accumulation of lesions due to the dysfunction of a certain part of the body. ”

"Professor, did you say robots have emotions and desires?" Ou Zhou continued to ask.

"There are many ways to express emotions, joy, anger, sorrow, sorrow, and sorrow, all of which fall into this category. And the expression of human emotions is warm feelings. In other words, there is warmth and enthusiasm. The robot is composed of cold parts, despite the use of smart chips and implanted with bionic mode, which can cry, laugh, and communicate with people. However, the warp and weft of the human body is a hard injury that the robot cannot reach no matter what. Therefore, the robot will not have spontaneous emotions and desires. ”

Ou Zhou kept asking: "Robots will not have spontaneous emotions and desires, so will the artificial intelligence heart not have spontaneous emotions and desires?" ”

The professor replied earnestly: "The logic is like this. Unless the scientific community breaks through the mystery of the human body's meridians, latitudes and veins. ”

Ou Zhou asked again: "Professor, if the heart of the robot is completely designed according to the human heart, and then the robot body is copied according to the real human model, what will be the situation?" ”

The professor replied, "This is the so-called android, and the form of the android is similar to cloning. However, because it involves human ethics and morality, it is not supported by society and academia, so it has no prospects for development. ”

"Professor, my brother and I once used the ancient and modern mind method on one night two months ago to communicate with the Buddha after the original spirit came out of the body, and the Buddha once said that today's technology may be able to create artificial intelligence hearts, and when the technology matures, it can be transplanted into the body of the great evil people to avoid its scourge. From this, we want to figure out the question of whether the intelligent heart will produce seven emotions and six desires? ”

The professor solemnly said: "Theoretically, it won't. However, the difficulty of researching and manufacturing the heart of artificial intelligence is like the ancients yearning for an eagle to soar in the sky, and with the current science and technology, I am afraid that it will be difficult to reach such a height. ”

"Professor, what are the main difficulties?"

"The heart works from the heartbeat, and the power of the heartbeat comes from the contraction and expansion of the heart muscle. The human heart can beat rhythmically because the heart contains a set of rhythmic, excited, conductive, contractile, and special myocardial fibers composed of a heart conduction system, including sinus node, atrioventricular node, left and right atrioventricular bundles, and Purkinje fibers. ”

Professor Li Qingyuan turned on the video teaching mode, pointed at the screen with the intelligent teaching whip and said:

"The conduction mechanism of the heart is as follows: the pacemaker cells in the subepicardial epicardium located in the right atrium near the entrance to the superior vena cava are excited, and through the transition cells in the sinus node they are transmitted to the atrial muscle, causing the atrial muscle to contract, and the atrial contraction lasts about 0.1 seconds, followed by diastole. At the same time, the excitation can be transmitted through the internodal bundle to the atrioventricular node located in the lower part of the atrial septum, and the atrioventricular node continues to transmit impulses along the left and right atrioventricular bundle branches to the ventricles, and finally transmits the impulses to the ventricular muscles in small branches, called Purkinje fibers, thereby causing ventricular contraction for about 0.3 seconds, and then entering diastolic phase to complete a heart beating cycle. A cardiac cycle consists of four processes: atrial contraction, atrial diastole, ventricular contraction, and ventricular diastole. ”

The professor put down the whip and continued to teach: "With the current science and technology, the manufacture of artificial intelligence heart assembly cannot achieve the natural movement mode of the heart. That kind of self-generated contraction and expansion function, the current scientific and technological community is still powerless. At present, the artificial heart used abroad is only implanted with a blood circulation pump in the left and right atrium, strictly speaking, it is only a part of the heart, which is far from the heart assembly. ”

"Professor, if we completely follow the original model of the heart, use an intelligent chip to design an artificial intelligence heart assembly, and replace the contraction and expansion functions of the heart with an intelligent microcontrol pump to maintain blood microcirculation and ensure the normal supply of human blood, will it be different from the artificial heart in the traditional sense?"

"Have you ever thought about it, machines, there are always failures, once the artificial intelligence heart fails, it will immediately stop supplying blood, and life will end in an instant. Who wants to make such a joke with their own life, and besides, who can afford to pay the price of their lives? ”

"Professor, we have already considered this question, and there are two groups of people who can achieve our wishes. They are the heart disease critically ill and the S criminals. The former will lose their lives if they don't change their minds, and the latter are dying people anyway, and they will become heroes who contribute to humanity by experimenting with their bodies. In addition, as long as the two groups of people agree to be an experimental product of artificial intelligence heart, they will receive a large amount of financial compensation. ”

The professor smiled: "The so-called heroes have been teenagers since ancient times, and I dare to think about such a problem." Not to mention the feasibility demonstration of the artificial intelligence heart, the huge research and development funds and the compensation of the test population are all astronomical, where do you come from? ”

Ou Zhou replied with a smile: "Professor, I won't tell you two that we have solved the funding problem. Now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. ”

Professor Li Qingyuan and Professor Ma Fuya glanced at each other and said solemnly: "If you want to do this, the 18 billion yuan of funds should only be wasted. ”

"In order to complete the Xuanji Sutra, no matter how much money is invested, we will not frown." Ou Zhou said firmly.

"Yes, we will not frown for the sake of this great mission." Jiang Yang said.

"I can assure you that the two younger brothers will definitely not lack funds. They have the financial strength to support this ambitious research project. The only thing missing is the R&D team, that's all. Shui Jingxin swore solemnly.

The two professors looked at each other again, and Professor Ma Fuya asked, "Where did you get the huge amount of money you raised?" ”

Ou Zhou said: "Professor, we can tell you the secret of the source of funds, not long ago, we accidentally found the treasure trove of the pirate organization. We returned to school two months late just to cash in on the treasure trove. And this funding is enough to support us to carry out the research and development and experimental work of artificial intelligence heart. ”

After the two professors glanced at each other in surprise, Ma Fuya said, "Could it be that this is the so-called providence, first the Xuanji Sutra appeared, and then the huge treasure vault was realized. Does all this mean that mankind really needs to move towards a harmonious and happy society? ”

Professor Li Qingyuan nodded and said, "The ancient sages have pointed out the maze one after another, and your successive adventures are also very revealing. ”

"So the two professors, can you tell me whether the artificial intelligence heart has the research conditions now?" Ou Zhou asked.

The two professors shook their heads, and Professor Li Qingyuan said: "This still needs to break through the bottom line of human ethics. Without the support of society and the scientific and technological community, I am afraid that it will be difficult to move an inch. ”

Professor Ma said: "Research projects are not carried out in secret. But this requires a huge risk, and once the leak is leaked, blows from all sides are inevitable. There is a high probability that the object will be stillborn. ”

Ou Zhou said firmly: "Science requires great dedication and selfless dedication. All unfavorable factors must not become a stumbling block to the pace of scientific research. ”

"This project needs to be jointly undertaken by the Academy of Life Sciences and the Institute of Artificial Intelligence, and there are many people involved, and the possibility of leakage is very high." Professor Li Qingyuan said.

Ou Zhou said: "If two professors from the Institute of Artificial Intelligence are willing to participate, plus five of us, the team will be successfully formed." ”

Professor Ma Fuya said: "The team of seven people has a long way to go to complete the design and development of the AI heart. The manufacturing test of the artificial intelligence heart still needs personnel to participate, and the final team is afraid that there will be no less than ten people. A team of 10 people who want to carry out secret research and development work must not be placed in an isolated space. ”

Shui Jingxin sighed: "It seems that my father's thinking is correct, and we in front of us can only let our minds fly, and we will not support it in all aspects, and there will be obstacles all the time." Two younger brothers, you should follow the original plan, complete your studies seriously, and make steady progress! ”
