My eyes know the ninja world

Chapter 319 is in the Infinite Monthly Reading World!
"Hey, hey...that's not a field where we can talk at all." Looking at Naruto who stood up, Shikamaru couldn't help complaining fiercely in his heart.

But Naruto didn't have any scruples, he just said what came to mind.

"Uncle Orochimaru, you said earlier that artificial intelligence is a special program executed by a computer, right?"

"Yeah." Orochimaru nodded.

He naturally recognized that the blond boy who stood up was the son of the fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato, and he was as talented as that man.

Naruto continued: "The program is equivalent to a ninja duel game, but isn't it strange? Why do you want the game console, the computer, to understand 'what is a game' when running the ninja duel game program?" 'What about this kind of question?"

"Shouldn't the program itself be responsible for understanding this?"

Naruto's childish voice echoed in the classroom air.

After hearing these words, except for those who were still confused, those who understood more or less were a little dumbfounded.

It can be said to be enlightening, and Iruka, who sat at the end of the classroom and listened to the lecture, said it was wonderful.

He looked at the little boy standing up in front of him, with some relief in his eyes: "Naruto, although he is a little noisy at ordinary times, he is always unexpected at critical moments."

Orochimaru also put on a look of approval, he nodded: "You really deserve to be the son of the fourth generation."

On the contrary, Naruto felt embarrassed, scratched his head and said with a laugh: "I just thought of what to say."

"You're right, sit down first."

He waited until Naruto sat down, and continued to speak: "In the final analysis, a computer is just a device for calculation, and it is completely different from the human brain."

"There is one biggest loophole in what I said before - even if people repeat the exact same calculations as a computer, what they simulate is not artificial intelligence, but a rigid computer."

"As Naruto said just now, does anyone want to let game consoles understand 'what is a game'? This is an impossible thing in itself, and it is not enough to be an argument to deny the possibility of artificial intelligence."

"After that question just now, we can see some interesting things."

"Intelligence isn't an actual thing, it's like an executable program. It's only there when we're running, and it's nowhere when it's off—but the data that makes it up, Or 'records', but honestly stored inside the computer."

"If people use those data and use their own brains to think and calculate complex processes in the program, they can also show the same intelligence after completely simulating a computer."

"But what is very special is that this kind of artificial intelligence uses human thinking as the carrier, that is, it uses the intelligence that already exists as the carrier, and it is the intelligence that exists above intelligence."

"..."

Orochimaru talked eloquently for more than an hour.

Although these students are young, their comprehension skills are not bad.

You must know that Kakashi had already learned complex ninjutsu such as multiple shadow clones before he graduated at the age of five, which was much more difficult than listening to artificial intelligence and virtual world science.

Compared with the previous era, ninja schools now focus more on the cultivation of logic and rational thinking, and their ability to accept such topics is quite strong.

After the lecture, Orochimaru left from the door of the classroom, ready to go back.

"That... Uncle Orochimaru, wait a moment." A voice sounded from behind.

Orochimaru turned around and smiled slightly: "It's Naruto, what's the matter?"

Naruto stopped in his tracks, and said bluntly, "Uncle Orochimaru, there has been a question that has been bothering me recently, can you answer my question?"

"Oh? Questions that can trouble Naruto should also be quite interesting, tell me and let me listen."

Naruto said: "It's like this. Suppose there is a powerful illusion that can control the five senses and all other perception abilities of the performer. How can we judge that we are not in this illusion?"

"Illusion?"

"Yes. My grown-ups said that it seems that five or six years ago, when I was less than one year old, an event called infinite monthly reading happened?"

"People trapped in the illusion of Infinite Moon Reading do not know that they are in the illusion, dreaming a dream that they think is real. Because it is an illusion that cannot break free, they will never notice anything strange until The outside world dispels the illusion."

After Naruto finished speaking, he looked at Orochimaru expectantly.

These unexpected words made Orochimaru stunned for a second, then smiled and said: "Is it the world of illusion? Naruto-kun, you really have an idea."

Naruto said dissatisfied: "This is not something out of the ordinary, I am very serious!"

Orochimaru nodded in approval: "This is indeed a very serious matter. After all... Maybe your whole life has been in a dream woven by a terrifying enemy, but you have no way to prove it, nor can you falsify it."

"Then... what should we do?"

Orochimaru rubbed his blond hair with a smile, and said soothingly: "If it is an illusion, there will be a day when it will be unraveled. If you can't untie it in your life, you don't care about the end of the illusion. Things outside of the illusion are more important in the illusion, and spending your life in the illusion is also what you want to see in the illusion."

"All in all, if you can't figure it out, you won't be able to figure it out. Just don't worry about it."

Naruto straightened his hair and said dissatisfiedly: "If you can't figure it out, you won't be able to figure it out... If it doesn't make sense, it won't make sense even if you say it seriously."

"Isn't this kind of question too early for your age? Think about more meaningful things, Naruto-kun."

"What... If it's an illusion, nothing will make sense." Naruto puffed up his cheeks.

"How come, meaning is what you recognize now, not what you recognize outside of illusion. Let's just say that, my assistant is waiting impatiently for me."

Orochimaru waved his hand, turned and walked forward.Beside a pillar there, a man with short white hair and big round glasses was waiting patiently.

"Hmm..." Naruto looked at the back of Orochimaru leaving, thinking hard about the meaning of those words.

Orochimaru quickly left the ninja school, turned to look at his assistant, and said with a smile, "Dou, what do you think of what Naruto-kun said?"

Dou keenly noticed the change of Orochimaru's address to Naruto, and realized something.

"Artificial intelligence... He was able to crack this thought experiment in a short period of time. He really has value worthy of recognition."

Orochimaru said with emotion: "The more you study, the more you realize how fragile you are, Dou."

"There is only one difference between humans and the 'artificial intelligence' that is simulated by computers and exists in theoretical research. Computers can execute countless programs, but the human brain can only execute the human program."

"Although there are differences, humans and computers are actually the same. Only when the neurons in the brain form specific connections and are active, will humans have their own consciousness and intelligence."

"What constitutes our consciousness is not the biological organization of the brain, but a series of 'computing' programs performed in specific laws."

Dou nodded: "Master Orochimaru, you said that the Sage of the Six Paths created the concept of 'soul'. After people's body dies, they can use other carriers to run the program of 'intelligence'."

"The things you have learned over the years are far more than I was at the same age as you, Dou."

"Oshemaru-sama said that the study of this kind of thing needs the results of previous people as a reference and basis, so that it can be carried out little by little."

"When I first came into contact with the concept of 'record', we can say that we didn't know anything about it, and just regarded it as something similar to genes. But as the research progressed a little bit, everything really So much about the 'record' that ... we're all part of some kind of 'record'."

"..." Dou didn't know how to answer.

"Du, what I asked you earlier was actually referring to what Naruto said later. What do you think about how to prove whether you are in the environment of infinite monthly reading?"

"I don't know, maybe this kind of question is meaningless if you really think about it."

Orochimaru shook his head: "No, it's meaningless, it's just for Naruto-kun. Such a young child should not be ruined by this kind of philosophical and ethereal question, but for us researchers, it is very meaningful .”

"It makes sense...but is there any way to prove it? Are we living a completely fictional life under some kind of illusion?"

Completely beyond Dou's expectations, Orochimaru gave an affirmative answer.

"That's right, we are now in the world of infinite monthly reading!"
