How did you, a prisoner on death row, become an important weapon of the country? Yecheng Gao Weiming

Chapter 778 Then... I wish you good luck!

When artificial intelligence becomes popular, will it also be the time when humankind dies?

Hearing Li Xin's words, Ye Cheng narrowed his eyes.

Yes!

What is artificial intelligence?

It is one of the important branches of computer science.

Artificial intelligence and intelligence!

When humans give machines the ability to think, observe, and practice independently, artificial intelligence comes into being.

And artificial intelligence, isn’t it another kind of silicon-based life?

What is silicon-based life?

Humankind's definition of it is that all living things that do not use carbon as its basic molecule have self-awareness and are silicon-based life.

For example, elements such as silicon, boron or phosphorus, as well as non-carbon-based life forms with the ability to evolve and transform.

This definition may not be accurate, but it is a major breakthrough in human cognition.

Why can only carbon-based life exist in this universe?

Silicon-based life also has a very high possibility of existence.

After all, natural selection, survival of the fittest.

For the vast universe, most planets with harsh environments are paradises for silicon-based life to thrive.

Moreover, Li Xin's experience also proves the fact that this kind of life form exists.

Then the problem comes again.

Why does Li Xin believe that artificial intelligence is approximately equal to silicon-based life?

This reminded Ye Cheng of what a foreign boss once said.

The boss is Elon Ma, who has devoted his life to the research and development of computer science, electrical engineering, and space technology.

He once founded the most popular car company in the world, but the purpose of founding it was just to make money to send his own rocket into space.

Elon Ma once said something when a certain famous AI software was released.

【Goodbye, humans! 】

Like several well-known foreign scholars and professors, he regards artificial intelligence as a type of silicon-based life.

It is unanimously agreed that silicon-based life is a demon unleashed by human hands.

It allows human beings to create it through thousands of years of hard work, inheriting the past and linking the future, and making self-sacrifice.

When it changes from one dimension to two dimensions, and from two dimensions to three dimensions, the human world will face an uncontrollable situation.

Let’s use the simplest analogy.

When map software has artificial consciousness, it may only take a moment for you to fall off a cliff.

When the nuclear bomb button still requires electricity to sense, it may trigger a nuclear explosion, just a small mistake made by silicon-based life at a certain moment on a certain day.

and so……

Li Xin’s words are by no means alarmist.

Ye Cheng also saw clues from a series of behaviors of the first generation at the end of Tianqi.

The breeding ground for silicon-based life is carbon-based life.

When it grows enough to break away from carbon-based life, it is the moment when disaster occurs.

Thinking of this, Ye Cheng nodded.

"Okay! I promise you, sir, we will use our whole country to continue to find the whereabouts of the first generation, and consciously control the development speed of artificial intelligence in our Dragon Kingdom."

Li Xin laughed when he saw Ye Cheng actually drawing inferences.

"Don't be nervous! My friend."

"More than three hundred years ago, the first generation did not like our Dragon Kingdom, and it is even less certain after more than three hundred years."

"In fact, based on my speculation and research, the most likely country for the first generation to abscond is..."

Li Xin slowly said a name, and Ye Cheng was convinced.

Where to escape?

It must be the cosmic policeman, the overlord of the galaxy, and the spokesperson of the earth - Ying Jiang!

Perhaps, only Eagle Sauce is the best paradise for the development of silicon-based life.

The two of them made a tacit agreement not to discuss this topic again.

Li Xin continued.

"To find the whereabouts of the first generation, you can ask my classmate Qin Wenjing. He may still be working for a certain big boss in the Dragon Kingdom. If you detain him, you may make surprising discoveries."

"In addition, we must control the development of nuclear fusion! This efficient use of energy is one of the technologies that silicon-based life cares about the most. It is even a bridge for humans to break through primary civilization and enter intermediate civilization."

"Although I don't know why the first generation didn't hand over this technology to Eagle Sauce without reservation, but there must be a reason."

"In my opinion, controllable nuclear fusion is like Pandora's box. It would be fine if it is in the hands of our Dragon Kingdom. If Yingjiang knows about it..."

When Li Xin pointed it out, Ye Cheng felt the same way.

"By the way, if you have time, please help find the whereabouts of the descendants of the Feng family. You should have seen them too."

"When I was in self-isolation, I asked my son Feng Kanyu to search for Xu Xiake's descendants."

"More than hundreds of years have passed, and I don't know what clues Xiao Yu found back then. You can try to find his descendants."

"Perhaps, that is also one of the means to restrain the first generation, or to restrain silicon-based life forms."

"Looking for Feng Kanyu?"

Ye Cheng smiled bitterly after hearing Li Xin's words.

The Taibao from Guanshan of the Feng family he knew was Feng Shiwen, the old man running a stall in Panjiayuan Ghost Market.

Feng Shiwen never married and had children in his life. He only had one adopted son, Li Cen.

Li Cen even entered the Deling Underground Palace with Ye Cheng, perhaps by his side at the moment.

But since Li Xin didn't ask about these things, Ye Cheng didn't want to say anything and still nodded.

Because he still can't figure it out.

If Li Xin did not travel through time, would Feng Shiwen exist at the same time?

This is one of the famous time paradoxes, the grandfather paradox!

Even Einstein didn't figure it out, and it's even less possible for Ye Cheng.

If no clues can be found on Feng Shiwen, we may have to look for the whereabouts of Xu Xiake's descendants.

After all, when the First Generation descended on Blue Star and caused a tragedy in Stone Village, hundreds of people in the village did not survive. Only Xu Xiake survived by chance.

There should be something in him that can restrain silicon-based life.

"And...what else? Let me think..."

There was a silence in his mind, and Li Xin's old voice sounded again.

"besides!"

"If our Dragon Kingdom's current technology reaches it, we can build lunar exploration equipment and go to the lunar surface!"

"Since the silicon-based life escaped there three hundred years ago and abandoned the mothership on the moon, it must still retain its hull."

"Not only the silicon-based mothership, there should also be a destroyed fleet of the carbon-based civilization."

"Go to the moon!"

"Go to the moon and see what happened back then!"

"It seems that Eagle Sauce has only done this before, but obviously they were not successful. They just landed on the front side of the moon and seemed to find nothing."

"According to my inference, the mothership and carbon-based fleet should exist on the back side of the moon, an area that humans have not yet explored..."

Hearing Li Xin's request, Ye Cheng smiled.

This is unfortunate.

The Dragon Kingdom wanted to dig up Deling with great fanfare, but for what purpose.

The purpose is to obtain sufficient lunar soil, refine the helium-3 materials in it, build new rockets, landers, and space mine trucks for lunar landings, and work hard for the upcoming fully controllable nuclear fusion.

Unexpectedly, there might be a silicon-based mothership and a carbon-based fleet on the far side of the moon?

It seemed that the moon landing was imminent and had to be launched.

Just letting the people of the Dragon Kingdom land on the back of the moon will undoubtedly increase the difficulty.

However, it is still within control.

After all, Chang'e-6 has already gone up there, and the Longguo people's landing on the lunar surface is just around the corner.

Ye Cheng responded softly: "Don't worry! Sir, there is...anything else you want to explain?"

Ye Cheng understood that Li Xin's time was running out.

The originally stable brain space began to collapse, and Li Xin's voice became more and more erratic.

This is a sign that brain space is about to close.

If you don't hurry up...

really!

Li Xin, who felt his energy was depleted, smiled calmly.

"Am I going to disappear from this world completely?"

"My friend! One last thing."

"After you leave the brain space, you should appear in my office area."

"That's where I spent hundreds of years with the original escape pod."

"I have a lot of research, and it's all documented here."

"There are also some insights and methods on human brain development..."

"But you have to be careful. Over-exploitation of your brain may cause you to lose the basic emotions that humans should have."

"For example, my killing in front of Deling was one of its sequelae."

"In addition...the first generation also left a very important thing in the escape capsule, which is also the thing that the Carbon-based Federation cares about the most..."

"It is..."

As Li Xin's voice became more noisy and erratic, the space in his brain vibrated more violently.

Ye Cheng understood that this gentleman was about to pass away and completely disappear from this world.

He could only stop speaking and listen with all his strength, trying to remember every word the other person said.

At the same time, a touch of sadness flashed through my heart.

Having witnessed Li Xin's magnificent life with his own eyes, Ye Cheng had already regarded him as a friend.

Even, he is a teacher worthy of respect and love.

Now that my husband is about to leave, it is impossible not to feel sad.

"call……"

When Li Xin finally said everything, he let out a sigh of relief.

"It's over, it's all over! My friend!"

"I haven't asked yet, what's your name?"
