Jiazixing has many research institutes, and Dong Tianchai specifically refers to the Human-Machine Integration Research Institute. This is the most important reason why he is willing to leave Zhao Wangxing and come to Jiazixing.

“Human-machine fusion technology has developed rapidly in recent years, but there are also some confusing signs, so I wanted to come and see it with my own eyes.”

A group of seven people rode in an extended vehicle. Dong Tianchai and Lu Linbei sat in the middle row. Cui Zhuning and the others sat in the front and rear rows respectively. Because of the partition, they could not see or hear each other, which made Cui Zhuning deeply sad. Feel sorry.

Speaking of his major, Dong Tianchai talked endlessly, "Have you ever heard of a saying? If cows have gods, then the gods must have horns?"

"Well, this is a saying that has been around since the time of Earth."

"Yes, but there is a deeper meaning hidden in this sentence. It can be regarded as a certain kind of theorem, a dilemma that human beings cannot escape from. Similar statements include 'human beings cannot imagine things they have not seen' and 'no one can do anything about it'" Describing colors to a man born blind'."

"Yeah." Lu Linbei didn't understand what the other party wanted to say.

"The same applies to the development of science and technology. It is limited by human beings' own thinking patterns. We can only expand human inherent abilities, but cannot create new abilities. All abilities beyond the scope must be converted before they can be used by humans, such as normal Light and sound outside the frequency, in fact, the word 'normal' itself is a limitation on thinking..."

Lu Linbei could only nod his head, unable to say a word.

"Do you understand?" Dong Tianchai asked.

"Dr. Dong's words have to be 'converted' before I can understand them."

"Oh, I always forget that, look, that's the way my mindset is bound to me. What I'm trying to say is, technology is an extension of humanity, you understand that, right?"

"I got it."

"Well, if there is a race that is completely different from humans and is also developing technology, it will definitely be extended according to their thinking model - even this statement is not completely accurate. That race may not have thinking, and the extension will naturally be something else. Something that humans cannot understand and may not even be able to see.”

"I kind of understand what Dr. Dong means, but that new race shouldn't be able to understand human technology, right?"

"Yes, that's what it means. Of course, there is a greater possibility that each other can understand part of the other, then this part must be something the two races have in common."

"Yeah." Lu Linbei nodded, still not understanding what Dong Tianchai meant by saying these words.

“This is where the confusion about Jiazixing’s human-machine fusion technology lies.”

"Does Dr. Dong understand Jiazixing's technology, or does he not understand it?"

"I understand, but this shouldn't be the case. Jiazixing people can be said to be a brand new race, and they should develop technology that is suitable for themselves. But so far, the scientific and technological achievements of Jiazixing that I have seen are all comparable to ordinary people. The perfect union of human beings.”

"Maybe it's because the Jiazi Planet people were originally transformed from ordinary humans. Although their chief system officer Guihai does not have a fixed body, he is also derived from humans. Therefore, they are an extension of humans, and the technology they develop is an extension of extension, so there are Something in common.”

"This is also the explanation given by Jiazi Xing, but 'extended extension' does not necessarily have compatibility. There is a high probability that it does not. Even if it can be compatible, it cannot be perfectly compatible. Jiazi Xing and Guihai are a major mutation of human beings. , should have its own unique extension. And you should be the bridge between the two extensions."

"I?"

"Yes, your ordinary brain belongs to humans, and your digital brain is similar to that of Jiazi people. You admit that you can't understand the code, but you can easily understand everything after entering the network. This is normal and consistent with the theorem. If you are a scientist, The two brains will be in serious conflict, and research that the ordinary brain thinks is important may be meaningless to the digital brain."

"Fortunately, I'm not that smart. I study the history of the Earth, and the other brain isn't interested in that."

Dong Tianchai didn't hear the irony at all and nodded solemnly, "You are indeed lucky to lack talent and achievements in science. According to inference, your digital brain must be very dissatisfied with this, but it cannot compete with the ordinary brain. Tell me, do you never want to come out every time you enter the Internet?"

Lu Linbei had to nod and admit.

"If you let your digital brain make the decision, it only takes a short time, a few hours, or at most a few days, for it to evolve complete independence, abandon the ordinary brain, and embark on a completely different path. If it proceeds If scientific research is conducted, will it still be consistent with your current expectations?"

Lu Linbei shook his head. He already understood the general meaning of Dong Tianchai, agreed with it very much, and came to his own conclusion, "So the Jiazi people either hide some of their technology, or they are still controlled by normal humans, just like I can still Like controlling a digital brain."

Dong Tianchai stretched out the thumb and index finger of his right hand, posing like a pistol, and pointed at Lu Linbei, as if shooting a pistol, "That's what it means."

"Dr. Dong can be an investigator." Lu Linbei couldn't help but said.

"Investigator...is investigating something?"

"Detective, I mean detective." Lu Linbei changed his words, and then laughed, "Dr. Dong's statement is similar to the origin theory. Ordinary humans and Jiazi people are at different origins, so they will inevitably end up in different places. Dimensionally expanded, intersection is the exception, and difference should be the norm.”

Dong Tianchai shook his head resolutely, "The origin theory lacks scientific rigor. It is a perfunctory solution for an earthling to face a difficult problem. It is closer to theology or philosophy. Both have the characteristics of self-dissolution and internal collapse. It seems that It's grand and profound, but it's actually just a disguise to hide the original problem. It can hide it from mediocre people, but it can't withstand in-depth investigation. From a scientific perspective, it's all a dead end, just a few more detours..."

Lu Linbei fell into the maze again and only heard one sentence: he was what Dong Tianchai called a "mediocre person".

When Dong Tianchai finally shut up, Lu Linbei said: "Dr. Dong put forward a theory that the scientific research of Jiazi people is quite abnormal. How do you plan to prove it?"

"Proof? We are on the road to proof. I came to Jiazi Star mainly for this."

"Dr. Dong plans to communicate openly and directly with the scientists from Jiazixing?"

"Of course, is there any other way? Science is complicated. Many times you try to explain and come up with all kinds of popular metaphors. You think you are straightforward enough, but the other person still doesn't understand. So scientists had better not beat around the bush and give Adding unnecessary barriers to normal communication.”

Lu Linbei was stunned for a while and said: "But this is not a normal exchange at all, but a contest about the truth, a battle. If I guessed correctly, Dr. Dong is writing an article, intending to point out the scientific research of Jiazixing Any abnormalities?"

"Hey, you guessed it right. I have almost written the article. I have been contacting Jiazixing's official research institutions a few months ago, hoping to communicate with them, but they always refused. Until a few days ago, Suddenly invited me to come for a direct interview.”

"Then Dr. Dong came?"

"Yes, of course I can't miss such a good opportunity. In fact, I don't like interstellar travel, especially deep sleep. Every time I wake up, I feel very painful. The last time I took a spaceship was ten years ago, and this time it felt too painful. It was important that I decided to suffer again.”

It was rare for Lu Linbei to meet someone who felt the same as him, but before he could express his sympathy, Dong Tianchai had already ended this inconsequential topic and started talking about other things.

“Scientific research has always extended more to human senses than to the brain. Yes, humans have long invented computers, which has greatly expanded the computing power of the brain, but it is not enough. Compared with the extension of the senses, There is still too little extension of thinking. Human-machine integration may be a breakthrough. As a new thing, it is full of possibilities. There are many paths in front of us, such as the modified version of Jiazixing, the game version of Longitude and Latitude, and you. coexisting versions. Unfortunately, the various paths refuse to communicate with each other and instead go their own separate ways. This will cause huge waste and completely violates the principles of scientific research."

"There is a reason why this situation occurs." Lu Linbei finally inserted a sentence.

"Reason? The only reason is the selfish nature of human beings, and science must first get rid of this nature. Again, if you try hard to explain things that are difficult for the other party to understand, do you still need to work hard to hide your secrets?"

Lu Linbei could think of many reasons to refute Dong Tianchai's statement, but decided to hold back. He had his own tasks, which definitely did not include convincing a proud and stubborn scientist.

Cui Zhuning reminded him that everything must follow Dr. Dong.

Dong Tianchai expressed many views on the selfish nature of human beings, and then continued to talk about his ergonomics theory and prospects for future development.

Lu Linbei could do nothing but nod and hum. He couldn't even doze off, because Dong Tianchai was sitting next to him and turned to look at him.

The position that people like Cui Zhuning dream of is a torment for Lu Linbei. This is not communication at all, but a bombing. The strength gap between the two sides is too big. The weaker side can only watch bombs falling from the sky around them. Stirring up clouds of dust.

Therefore, when the vehicle finally stopped, Lu Linbei was so relieved that he even forgot about his mission. It was not until he saw Cui Zhuning that he remembered that he was going to invade Jiazixing's network.

A large group of scientists from the institute were already waiting at the door. They gave up their rest time and didn't get off work even after dark, just to see the true face of their idol. When they saw Dong Tianchai, they immediately came to greet him.

Dong Tianchai, who was still in a state of excitement just now, was "brought back to his original shape" by the crowd. His face turned red, his speech was slurred, and he always wanted to hide behind Lu Linbei.

Lu Linbei acted as a temporary bodyguard, trying his best to separate Dong Tianchai from everyone, and even said a few polite words for him.

The crowd finally dispersed, and Dong Tianchai entered the institute building accompanied by several leaders. Lu Linbei was squeezed in behind to join Cui Zhuning.

"They may want to test you later..."

"I will accept it." Lu Linbei said, a little nervous about the upcoming mission, but also a little more confident. Although he could not understand most of the genius's words, he finally had a little understanding of Jiazi Xing's hidden purpose. .
