Chapter 55: The weight of the soul is not weighed by death

In the history of human civilization, many branches of civilization have coincidentally given birth to the concept of "soul".

This is not only reflected in the myths and folklore of various civilizations, but even in the early days of human civilization entering the stage of scientific research, there were many specious experiments to try to weigh the quality of the soul......

Unfortunately, in the end, human consciousness is nothing more than electrical signals released by synapses in the human brain.

That is, consciousness is attached to objective brain structures and matter, and does not exist out of thin air.

That is, the soul and the body are one, and there is no way for the soul to go out of the body, or to weigh the soul.

Common sense, though, is meant to be broken.

For example, Zhang Daoxuan can rise into the sky, which has a great impact on traditional mechanics.

That Zhang Daoxuan said that after his soul was out of his body, he was able to have a conversation with Bi Gates through the electronic Internet, which obviously also impacted today's brain science.

Therefore, the female academician in the field of brain and cognition, who had just completed the psychological evaluation of Zhang Daoxuan, was also very concerned about the results of the experiment at the moment.

This is simply because if the instrument can measure the numerical changes that occur in Zhang Daoxuan's body, it means that several top journals in related fields can be published.

It also means...... There is a high probability that human civilization will change qualitatively......

The traditional "consciousness upload" is not so much the upload of consciousness as the uploading of relevant information in the computer storage device, and the "digital twin" comes out of a person who is like himself, but in fact does not exist in the person.

In other words, there is no way to achieve immortality in the individual sense through "consciousness uploading".

If it were just a clone, it would have problems similar to those encountered by large language models today.

That is, it has a very good ability to summarize known problems, which exceeds the ability of most human beings to summarize.

However, it does not help something that needs to be groundbreaking.

Why has human civilization been stuck at this level for many years?

It's not because there's a problem with the level of education, it's not because the human brain isn't smart enough.

Simply because the human individual does not live long enough, the physiological peak of being able to think efficiently is not long enough.

The peak of a person's thinking is probably from his teens to his thirties.

In any modern discipline, basically after graduating with a master's degree, it is only barely enough to learn the existing knowledge of this discipline.

At the Ph.D. level, it is only a little bit possible to make some breakthrough research.

However, the doctoral stage has entered a period when mental power begins to decline.

In a few years, you will be in your forties and fifties, which is already the end of the life cycle of personal scientific research.

The reason why we have seen achievements and breakthroughs in modern scientific research is mainly because of some older people.

That's not because they still have good brains at that age, but because of their status and wealth, they have more young and useful brains.

Young and easy to use brains, at this time, they often have to be grateful to Dade, those older brains give them such a good opportunity.

For example, most of the academicians and Dajiang scholars gathered here have passed the golden age of their scientific research careers.

Gathering them is also useful for gathering them.

That's mainly because they have more experience and the ability to manage the time of other researchers.

Although it seems that there are only about 300 academicians and Dajiang scholars surrounding Zhang Daoxuan, in fact, although there has been no official announcement yet, the number of scientific researchers working around Zhang Daoxuan has exceeded 10,000.

Zhang Daoxuan was tested by many instruments and watched by many experts and scholars, and his soul was out of his body.

Out-of-body is a magical feeling.

Although I still subconsciously think that seeing things needs to be seen through the eyes, and touching things needs to be done with my hands.

However, in fact, when consciousness floats, all modes of perception change.

The reason why I still feel that I see with my eyes and touch with my body is the same as Zhang Daoxuan's entry into the electronic Internet, where he still has to fantasize about the ground, passages and doors, and people can't imagine things beyond their own cognition.

When human beings see unfamiliar things and have unfamiliar experiences, they also like to get closer to the experiences and experiences they originally had.

In this test task, Zhang Daoxuan not only wanted to go out of his body, but also injected his consciousness into a specially built temporary local area network.

When Zhang Daoxuan entered this LAN, he imagined it as a huge square similar to the Colosseum.

Over there, onlookers academicians and Dajiang scholars, scientific research workers operating instruments, cameramen and General Yang.

All they saw at first was Zhang Daoxuan keeping one movement there, and then he didn't move.

At this time, Zhang Daoxuan didn't just look motionless.

In fact, his breathing, heartbeat, and all metabolic reactions stopped.

Biologically speaking, he is not alive now, but it is known that he is not actually dead.

That......

Is this a state of pause?

Just when the vast majority of people were amazed when they saw Zhang Daoxuan's heart rate and other physical indicators.

The guy over there who was watching the server data suddenly said, "There's a lot of data flow changing!" There are tons of data flow variations! ”

The female academician of brain and cognition hurried over to see how the situation was.

I saw that the data information on the computer was refreshing like a waterfall.

"Is there a way to manifest it?" The female academician asked.

The actual operator, with sweat on his head and his hands flying on the keyboard, was too busy to do so, and he said, "It's still ...... Can't ...... yet It takes a lot of code to build ......"

However, before he could finish speaking, the code on the monitor that was originally like a waterfall suddenly turned into a scene of the Colosseum.

And in this scene, Zhang Daoxuan stood there, and he said, "I can sense your conversation just now, and I have realized the embodiment ...... a little."

Zhang Daoxuan's voice came out of the stereo, which was different from the sound he himself made in the flesh through the vibration of his vocal cords.

However, even so, it can still be heard that it is Zhang Daoxuan's voice.

At this moment, whether it is a front-line operator, an academician, or a Dajiang scholar, or a cameraman, a recorder, or even General Yang.

They were either staring at Zhang Daoxuan in the Colosseum on the screen, or staring at Zhang Daoxuan's body.

They have little joy at the success of their experiments, nor at the joy of humanity entering a new chapter.

They have only one fear, as if imprinted in their genes, from the depths of the spinal cord to the brain......

Zhang Daoxuan in the computer, Zhang Daoxuan in reality.

In the end, which one is Zhang Daoxuan?
