Voyage of the Stars

Everyone no longer has to work, and they will not starve to death while enjoying themselves all day long. On the contrary, they can rely on strong artificial intelligence to live a life of plenty of food and clothing, and play as much as they want.

Since you can live so well without doing anything, why do you have to work so hard to study and do scientific research?

Yes, as long as humans find a way to prevent the rebellion of strong artificial intelligence, they can stay in a galaxy for tens of millions of years, using the inexhaustible stellar energy and massive rocky planetary materials. Supplying all the needs of the entire human race.

Moreover, once most people in the entire society have this kind of thinking, scientists and researchers who are originally at the forefront of scientific research will also feel unbalanced.

Why should I work so hard to do research, while you are lying there drunkenly and enjoying a luxurious life. Why should I work so hard to study Laozi's science for you people who have made no contribution to mankind all day long? Why do you guys enjoy not having to go to work, but I have to get up early and stay up late every day?

In this case, let's all lie down together.

Although this kind of thing has not happened, many things are foreseeable. If the application of strong artificial intelligence is not handled well, even if human beings were calling science first the day before, it is possible to sleep and wake up directly into the land of gentleness. .

At times like this, many scientists think of the Awakener.

Why are Awakeners called Awakeners? That’s because Awakeners have been doing the work of awakening fallen civilization. What kind of civilization is a fallen civilization?

Human beings who were still struggling to survive in the past did not think much about it, but now they feel that they are very close to fallen civilization.

Presumably, the so-called fallen civilization is a civilization whose overall thinking is biased toward pleasure, and ultimately loses the power to advance science and technology!

"Could it be that after entering the third level civilization, many civilizations will become corrupted civilizations?"

"Is a mere aerospace-level civilization qualified to fall?"

"Ideological depravity, is this another big filter for level three civilizations besides the rebellion of strong artificial intelligence?"

"Then why do the awakeners of the dignified sixth-level civilization want to awaken those fallen civilizations? What is the benefit to them? Is it just a hobby? Or an ideal?"

The emergence of strong artificial intelligence has caused human scientists and new government officials to pose questions to themselves one after another.

All kinds of problems, in summary, point to one direction, that is, how humans should use strong artificial intelligence.

To this end, high-level human beings have held discussions more than once.

Just like the ongoing discussion, many scientists and scholars are having heated discussions on the application of strong artificial intelligence.

Yue Yuan was naturally present. The discussion meeting had been held for some time at this time. It was not an enlarged meeting or a large meeting for decision-making, so there were not many people.

At this time, one of the participants pressed the signal light on his behalf to indicate that he wanted to speak. After seeing Yue Yuan, who was presiding over the meeting, clicked the agree button, he spoke into the microphone and said: "Everyone, we have not forgotten what the awakener said. Fallen civilization does not depend on the level of civilization. As long as the overall civilization is comfortable and enjoyable, and leads to long-term stagnation of science and technology, it can basically be generally classified as a fallen civilization.

But what I want to say is that strong artificial intelligence is only the apparent cause of the problem of corruption. The emergence and application of strong artificial intelligence is only an inducement, a promoter and a catalyst for the emergence of corruption, rather than the essential cause. "

When everyone heard someone expressing their opinions, they looked sideways, only to see that the voice came from a cute girl who looked very cute and adorable.

With such an appearance, he could still participate in a meeting of this level. Everyone knew who it was without much thinking. It must be Shi Lifen, a student of Dr. Yi Kai.

She has a doctorate in biology and genetics. She has been working in Yi Kai's research institute a long time ago, but now she has her own research institute, and a group of scientific researchers have formed a scientific research team with her.

He has become a top scientist.

Shi Lifen looks cute, but that's just due to biotechnology, genetic technology, and life potions. Many people in human society now look young even at a very old age.

So Shi Lifen looks stupid, but her brain is not stupid. At this moment, she paused, and then continued: "The essential reason is still us humans. The greedy nature of genes and the lazy nature of genes are the root causes of corruption. And if there is corruption in human society, then it must be the reason of those people. Defeated by the genetic instinct, his thoughts were swayed by the genetic instinct.”

"To give a simple example, most of you here are male compatriots. You must be familiar with the term 'sperm on the brain'. What I am talking about is the kind of primitive desire. Of course, I am not targeting male compatriots. We women are also Same.

Genetically, we show that driven by physiological needs, especially when stimulated by wormholes, we lose normal judgment and rationality, and thus behave impulsively or irresponsibly. "

"The main reason I give this example is to say that whether it is a sperm brain or hedonistic depravity, its essence is the primitive instinctive trend of genes. It is the result of more than three billion years of biological evolution. It has an impact on our rational thinking. It’s so subtle that we don’t even know when we start to fall.”

"So our team believes that if we want to completely prevent human beings from falling into hedonistic depravity, we must start from the fundamental problem, that is, we must genetically modify humans again. We must find a way to find the switch of depraved genes, and then use our Reason, wisdom, overcome it, or suppress it, as the potion of life does when it takes effect.”

At this time, a scholar couldn't help but interject: "Professor Shi means that before we apply strong artificial intelligence, we not only have to find ways to prevent it from rebelling, but we also have to modify our genes again?"

Due to gene tailoring technology and the theory of design evolution, humans are not averse to modifying genes.

"No!" Shi Lifen replied: "I just said that we need to increase research in this area. I did not say that we must genetically modify ourselves before investing in strong artificial intelligence. Hedonic degradation will not appear instantly, it has a process , so we still have time, as long as we formulate some targeted rules on the use of strong artificial intelligence, I believe we can greatly slow down this process."

Shi Lifen’s words fully reveal the true nature of genetic determinism.

In fact, this is also true. She believes that as long as human beings' lazy genetic instinct has not been successfully transformed by technology, then human beings will one day become a fallen civilization under the catalysis of strong artificial intelligence.

When most individuals in a civilization tend to degenerate, even if there are a few sane individuals, it will be difficult to reverse the situation. The reason is that the development of science and technology and the promotion of science require a huge population base. A small number of people, let alone developing science and technology, are already very powerful if they can maintain the science and technology of a civilization without retreating.

"That's okay." Another scholar took over and said: "We can specify some policies and regulations. We will definitely put strong artificial intelligence into formal use, but we can set some permissions, and military and civilian uses can be separated. I think This aspect can be reflected in the knowledge reserve and data extraction of 'robot workers'. Many robot workers used by ordinary people do not necessarily know everything."

Another participant also expressed his opinion: "Of course! But what I am worried about is another thing, which is also the most direct thing. That is the impact of the emergence of strong artificial intelligence on all walks of life, such as some Should private goods stores, such as the school education system, change? Should the original courses that cultivate our human hands-on ability be cancelled? Or, for example, should we humans give up our hands-on abilities from now on? Those who were originally engaged in various related industries How do you arrange it?”

The participant asked many questions, which are worthy of everyone’s thinking and must be solved before artificial intelligence is put into use.

Human beings are a group, not the will of one person, so the emergence of new technologies will inevitably cause the replacement of old and new social habits.

These all need to be solved one by one by the new government led by Yue Yuan.

Therefore, Yue Yuan will definitely be very busy in the coming days.

And this is just the impact of the application of strong artificial intelligence on society and civilians. If military issues are added to it, then Yue Yuan really wants to split himself in half.

As some military personnel have raised the question, after strong artificial intelligence can only be used, will the human fleet still maintain the model of man-operated warships?

After all, the drawbacks of this model are too obvious. If a battleship is destroyed, thousands of human beings will die. If all are handed over to strong artificial intelligence, then no matter how the war is fought in the future, humans will not suffer any losses.

But is this really good? Or is it really beneficial to mankind?

Don’t you see, even powerful civilizations like the Awakeners need artificial intelligence to wake up their civilized individuals from sleep during wars and battles.

As mankind enters the third level of civilization, a lot of problems have arisen in various fields.
