Chapter 53: Alternatives? Two options?

Why can humans use mobile phones instead of relying on them?

The question of the number map Hengyu was very strange, but it seemed to hide his true intentions, so it caused Ma Zhao, Tu Hengyu, and Hao Xiaoxi to ponder.

Many thoughts flowed through Ma Zhao's mind, and finally merged into a question under a rigorous logical framework.

Why do people use mobile phones?

Ma Zhao thought to himself that he might not have answered in detail enough, but it was mostly for communication, work, study and entertainment.

So, why can a person not rely on a mobile phone?

Ma Zhao thought about this question for half a minute.

In the end, he came up with an answer.

Because mobile phones are not necessary to carry out these four activities, many things, including computers, can replace mobile phones to help humans carry out these four activities, and even these four activities themselves are not necessities for human beings.

Not a necessity, nature can not be relied upon.

If you change your phone to a computer.

Considering that computers and their derivatives are to some extent a rigid need of human civilization, the only way to allow humans to use computers without relying on computers is to find alternatives to computers.

This alternative allows humans to do what computers do, or even do better, when they don't have them.

Ma Zhao hesitated: "You want humans to find alternatives to computers, to be precise, better alternatives, right?" ”

The reason why humans don't rely on mobile phones is because humans have alternatives to mobile phones, and these alternatives are better than mobile phones.

Ma Zhao and the number map Hengyu looked at each other.

Digital Tu Hengyu smiled: "When humans can give up computers, humans can use computers unscrupulously. ”

Although there was no positive answer, the implication was that Ma Zhao guessed correctly.

Ma Zhao frowned and said, "But there is no substitute for computers for human beings. ”

What can replace a computer for complex calculations, and what can replace a computer program for manipulating complex instruments?

Does such a thing really exist?

Facing Ma Zhao's question, the smile on the face of the digital figure Hengyu did not move at all.

"Let's play a game."

"I can tell you where the three antimatter are, but I promise you won't be able to catch any of them; Or I'll tell you where two of the antimatter are, and make sure you can catch them. ”

"Antimatter that is not chased will explode."

"Take your pick."

"I'll give you thirty minutes to discuss, and then I'll tell you your answers in thirty minutes."

"It's outdated."

With that, the digital figure Hengyu lowered his head.

"What the hell was he talking about?"

Hao Xiaoxi asked.

Although she listened to the conversation between Ma Zhao and Digital Tu Hengyu, she still didn't seem to understand, such as "You can use the computer if you give up the computer", she couldn't understand this sentence at all.

Tu Hengyu pursed his lips, and he explained for Ma Zhao: "My digital life seems to think that humans have something better than computers, but humans don't use this thing. ”

Ma Zhao nodded in affirmation of Tu Hengyu's explanation, and then added, "But we don't know what this thing is. ”

Hao Xiaoxi raised her eyebrows.

She seemed to know what was better than a computer, but she wasn't sure if she was right.

"Is he talking about planetary consciousness?"

Hao Xiaoxi asked.

Ma Zhao and Tu Hengyu were stunned.

Planetary consciousness?

Ma Zhao hesitated: "What is planetary consciousness, does it refer to Ava's special existence?" ”

Hao Xiaoxi briefly explained the coalition government's definition of planetary consciousness.

"We don't know much about planetary consciousness, and we're not sure if planetary consciousness can do things similar to computers." Ma Zhao paused, "But there is a high probability that it is possible, as long as you look at the planetary consciousness as an enlarged brain." ”

The brain itself is a special kind of computer.

Tu Hengyu took over the conversation: "Consciousness is something more mysterious than a computer, and it is not easy to be invaded, at least it is completely beyond our understanding." ”

If there is an enemy that can invade consciousness, it must be an enemy beyond the scope of human comprehension.

In the face of such an enemy, it doesn't matter what humanity uses.

"However, does Earth have planetary consciousness?"

Tu Hengyu wondered.

Hao Xiaoxi pursed her lips, and she said uncertainly: "There should be, at least Ava thinks we have, so the beasts on Pandora don't attack our people." ”

"But we've never had any contact with Earth Consciousness."

The Coalition Government's investigative team is still roaming the planet, trying to gain contact with Earth's planetary consciousness from inaccessible places like primeval forests.

But the team has not found anything, and the finance department even suspects that they have fraudulently funded public travel.

Ma Zhao took a deep breath, and he said in a deep voice: "Only when the earth also has planetary consciousness, only in this way can we give up the choice of using computers." ”

"Then Tu Hengyu's digital life wants us to get in touch with the planetary consciousness, and to establish a closer cooperative relationship with the planetary consciousness."

"Tu Hengyu and I don't understand these things, so it's inconvenient for us to participate in the next task."

Ma Zhao said solemnly: "I'll leave it to you, Director Hao." ”

Hao Xiaoxi nodded with a heavy heart.

She turned around and informed the coalition government of what she had just found and the two choices given by the digital map Hengyu, and attended the meeting remotely.

The coalition government received the news and exploded at once.

"Incredible!"

"It turned out that digital life stole antimatter!"

"Is the technology of digital life mature?"

"Our network security is so unreliable!"

"Where can I find planetary consciousness now?"

"These two options are variants of the tram problem, and according to this digital life, there will be an antimatter explosion anyway!"

"What now?"

There are many issues before the coalition government, one of which must be solved immediately, and that is whether to know the coordinates of the three antimatter or the coordinates of the two.

The number diagram Hengyu only gave them thirty minutes.
