The top-notch movie queen wears books, disguises herself as a man and is handsome all over the world

After reading Qin Jingyu's experimental report, Carter thought for a while and said, "I can understand that from the perspective of the anthropic principle and survivor bias: the reason why we can think continuously is because we ourselves are random and continuous entropy fluctuations?"

Qin Jingyu nodded, then flipped through a document, combined it with the formula she wrote down, and said, "This is a previous scientific data paper. I calculated that the probability of fluctuations in our world is e^(-10^100). And the probability of fluctuations in the Boltzmann brain is e^(-10^28)."

"No, Qin. You have to know that the probability of our current universe being fluctuated is 72 orders of magnitude lower than the probability of the Boltzmann brain being fluctuated."

Carter objected: "Our universe has at least 75 billion continuous Boltzmann brains, so there are at least 75 billion x 10^72 Boltzmann brains in fluctuations, and this is just a very rough calculation."

That’s 750 billion billion billion billion billion billion billion billion Boltzmann brains.

And this is just the continuous Boltzmann brain; there are many more instantaneous Boltzmann brains that have not been counted.

"Qin, I know your math, and your calculations are very good, but this data is too huge. With just the two of us, we may not be able to finish calculating it in the next ten years."

Qin Jingyu also knew that this data was too huge, even unrealistic, so he comforted him, "Hey, Carter, calm down. At least we know that this can be calculated, right? We are just discussing the next step of the research. There is no need for you to get so excited."

Hearing her say this, Carter quickly calmed down, "Sorry, I just..."

She thought about it and decided that it was impossible to make an excuse for what she had just done. "Well, I was excited. I didn't mean to argue. I'm sorry."

Qin Jingyu said, "It's normal that the theories don't agree. We are just discussing normally, not arguing. You should drink something to calm down first."

Carter always thought she was very calm, but when she heard such a huge amount of data just now, which might affect her next ten years, she was still shocked. This was only the data from the first small stage. She thought she was ready for the Boltzmann brain. Now it seems that she not only overestimated herself, but also underestimated the difficulty of this experiment.

Maybe her mentor was right and she shouldn't challenge the unknown.

However, it was also from here that she realized the real gap between herself and Qin Jingyu. This young Chinese boy was only 19 years old this year, much younger than her, but he had a kind of magical power, as if as long as he was there, he would hold up the sky even if it fell.

She was extremely grateful that Qin Jingyu came to Putian University, and she asked him to be her partner.

Qin Jingyu also knew that the data obtained using the probability formula was too outrageous, but there was still a way out.

"Carter, there is no specific boundary between the probability of Boltzmann brain being idealistic or materialistic. Perhaps we can regard the universe as a system, and the probability of the system being in state i..."

Qin Jingyu quickly brainstormed and came up with a formula, which is the Boltzmann distribution.

The universe can give birth to stars and planets and evolve into galaxies. From the perspective of the second law of thermodynamics, this is a process of entropy reduction. So the fluctuation theory is used to explain the fusion of particles into stars.

Moreover, Boltzmann concluded that as long as the time is long enough, the fluctuation process can not only form stars and planets, but even form objects of arbitrarily complex nature - such as a conscious brain.

So this was always a thought experiment, not a real experiment.

"Once we think of the universe as one giant system, the branching formulas become ..."

Carter followed Qin Jingyu's thoughts and substituted them into the formula he wrote on the manuscript paper.

"Is the Boltzmann distribution similar to the softmax in deep learning?"

Carter nodded happily, "Yes. So, our human brain produces the lowest entropy, and the Boltzmann distribution maximizes entropy."

Qin Jingyu input the data into the computer, and then the experimental model generated changes. She continued to calculate the formula, "If we classify the state, the input state ? may be a vector , and I is equal to..."

A is the matrix of k categories xn, Yi is the label of state Ii, the above is the compact form, then their coordinates are...

Qin Jingyu stopped writing halfway.

Carter said anxiously: "Why don't you continue writing?"

Qin Jingyu said: "This hypothesis is interesting. I would like to improve it. Maybe it can be used as our next research step."

Carter showed a look of astonishment when he heard this, but was shocked the next second and said, "Is this just your temporary assumption?"

Qin Jingyu scratched the back of his nose. "When I was comforting you just now, this idea suddenly popped into my mind. It can be said to be an accidental thought."

After listening to this, Carter didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Perhaps this is what genius is. Inspiration always comes in an instant and inexplicably.

Just as he was about to say something, Qin Jingyu suddenly asked excitedly: "What time is it now?"

Carter was confused for a moment, but still said, "Five o'clock, it's almost evening time."

Qin Jingyu said "Oh no" and hurried to the lounge to get his cell phone.

Carter asked confusedly, "Hey, what's wrong with you?"

Qin Jingyu said without even turning his head: "Today is the Nobel Prize award ceremony."

When Carter heard this, she thought, yes, today is the Nobel Prize ceremony. She was still nagging Qin about it two days ago, but she actually forgot about it today because of the experiment.

I quickly followed.

Qin Jingyu returned to the lounge and took out her cell phone from the locker. There were a lot of missed calls and text messages, but she had no time to read them. Instead, she quickly clicked on the international news. She couldn't watch the live broadcast, but the award information and international news were reported firsthand.

When Carter came to the lounge, before he asked whether the various Nobel Prizes had been announced, he asked whether his team had won the Nobel Prize in Medicine.

But just as he said this, Qin Jingyu hugged him excitedly, "Hey, Carter, I'm so happy."

Carter felt a little dizzy when he was hugged, but Qin Jingyu just hugged him gently and then stepped back. He then showed Carter the page about the Nobel Prize in Medicine reported in the news, "Look, it's us."

Carter quickly reacted and exclaimed: "Oh my God, you and your research and development team's White Whale Generation really won the Nobel Prize in Medicine!!!"

Qin Jingyu couldn't hide the smile on his face, "Yes, it's a real Nobel Prize in Medicine!!!"
