Chapter 3134 Super Body Era
"this……"
Li Yao thought for a long time before he understood what Gu Wuxin meant.
Indeed, in the human civilization where Li Yao lived, both the Star Federation and the Real Human Empire have stepped into the information age, and almost everyone is connected by crystal brain and the Internet. No matter work, study or life, all aspects It is inseparable from the Internet, and even a "spiritual clan" like Lu Qingchen was born, trying in vain to connect everyone to the virtual space through the Internet, and give birth to a new form of civilization.
Not to mention, "Fuxi", the mastermind of the Covenant Alliance, is a kind of crystal brain and spiritual net essence. Like Xiao Ming, Wen Wen and Boxing Champion, it is a new generation of information life.
So, is Gu Wuxin's so-called "super body" the same as the informatization concept of Lu Qingchen, Fu Xi, Xiao Ming, Wen Wen and Boxing King?
Li Yao doesn't think so. Gu Wuxin and his super body have already touched a deeper realm of information life than Lu Qingchen, Fu Xi, Xiao Ming, Wen Wen and Boxing Champion. Perhaps, that is the essence of life.
"You have to admit that humans or all carbon-based intelligent life are information animals. Since the appearance of our oldest ancestors, those bacteria and viruses born in the primitive ocean, they have been designed to replicate, transmit and weave information And what exists, swallowing information, constantly swallowing more information, outputting information, and transmitting information to a larger group of people and a farther range, these are our instincts and the meaning of our existence.”
Gu Wuxin continued, "In ancient times when the level of technology was backward, individuals of carbon-based intelligent life had to seal themselves and live a life that was monotonous, boring, boring, and lacked information interaction. Their instinct to absorb and transmit information is suppressed.
"Once the technical means are mature and the social environment permits, carbon-based intelligent life will immediately transform itself and the whole world in the direction of informatization, post-informatization, and super-informatization, and use various forms of networks to connect all individuals closely. together.
"They are eager for information, and they are constantly devouring information that has no meaning to themselves, ranging from changes in the universe and major national events, to celebrity gossip and social news from the next town, to trivial things about the parents around them. What does this information have to do with their lives, and what impact can it have on them? But they just want to know, and they don't hesitate to waste their precious lives.
"Similarly, they upload their information to the Internet non-stop, no one cares what they eat, what they wear, how they feel or what kind of problems they encounter in life and work. No one cares about these, they also Knowing that no one cares about this, but they just can't control the impulse engraved in the deepest part of their genes, like a never-ending high-power radio station, continuously releasing information, information, information, and using this information, on the Internet and Reconstruct a self in the virtual world, a better, more exciting, more 'real' self.
"This is what happened to every individual in the early days of Pangu civilization's entry into the information society.
"Of course, because the Pangu race has the ability of large-scale telepathy, and has passed on this ability to other races in the Pangu civilization alliance, so we build a network, and the way of information exchange may be different from yours.
"But I believe that the essence is the same. There must be more and more 'Internet addicts' and 'information tribes' in your civilization. Your society is also slowly moving towards informationization, networking and even virtualization. development direction, right?
"There is no need to answer, I have already perceived the answer from your brain waves.
"Actually, what is the difference between reality and illusion, and what is the difference between me and others?
"I said just now that once I am linked to the super body, I can live in the brains of hundreds of millions of people, and hundreds of millions of people can also pour into my brains to share wisdom, emotions and memories. You seem to be very vigilant and disgusted, but Think about it carefully, it's not as exaggerated as you think.
"I don't know if there are similar things in your civilization... In the words of the earth, there are games and movies. Then, when you are intoxicated by a beautiful, wonderful When you are in movies and exciting games, don’t you also substitute yourself into the role of the protagonist in movies and games to experience another life? With the continuous upgrading of technology, the online world gradually has all the beauty of the real world, which has been improved a hundred times After the changes, who would refuse to spend a more brilliant, beautiful and rich life in the online world? After all, compared to our exponentially exploding wisdom and desires, how weak our brains and bodies are, what we have How lonely and boring the real world is!
"The trend of history is mighty and mighty. Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish. Do you understand that this is an inevitable trend in the evolution of civilization. It does not depend on the will of a certain 'hero' or 'devil'. The large, fixed terminals built a primary network; then the terminals became miniaturized, mobile and wearable, allowing the network to cover the entire civilization; then the terminals were further miniaturized and could be implanted under the skin, becoming the birthplace of all people. Artificial organs to be worn; Gradually, the boundary between flesh and blood and network terminals is becoming more and more blurred. With the development of biotechnology and quantum technology, brain cells will become biological crystal brains, and crystal brains will also shrink to The layers of mustard seeds and cells are perfectly integrated into the flesh and blood, and will not be damaged or scrapped after a lifetime of use.
"At each stage of development, the efficiency of people's information interaction, including the amount of information they swallow and output per second, will be hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of times higher than in the past! A person living in the early information age An ordinary person may read as much news information through a network terminal in a day as his ancestors who lived in a village in the dark and ignorant age thousands of years ago, and had access to more news information in a lifetime, and he lives in the information age In the later period, that is, the descendants of the "super-information age", the information swallowed in one second is also billions of times as much as his. If such a beautiful super-information age really comes, they, all of them, will have their brains connected. Come together, share wisdom, emotion and memory, and form a "super body", isn't it a logical and natural thing?
"Of course, I believe you will definitely mention the old-fashioned and old-fashioned question of how to maintain 'free will'. I can't blame you for this. This is a question that carbon-based intelligent life will inevitably ask under the limitations of rigid thinking. I think back then My ancestors mulled over this question when they decided to build a small hyperinformation network, linked into our own hyperbody.
"Don't worry, even if you link into the super body, you can still maintain your small, futile, and ridiculous independence. As long as you want, you can completely close your own super information interaction protocol, cut off contact with others, and free yourself. There is no compulsive order on the fringes of the superbody to do this, it's just that very few people would do it."
"Why?"
Li Yao couldn't help asking.
"Why?"
Gu Wuxin raised his eyebrows high, as if his brain waves with strong sarcasm were still not enough to express his astonishment, "Isn't this obvious and self-evident? Human carbon-based intelligent life is an animal of information, and information is ours. No one can return to the low-level information interaction state of '100,000' or even '10,000' after getting used to the 'hundreds of millions' of super-information interaction.
"Imagine a person who is used to being immersed in the online world day and night, wears several types of information terminals, has countless accounts in countless forums, and has experienced countless kinds of life in countless games and movie worlds. Man, thrown back to the isolated, backward technology, dark and ignorant Middle Ages, no Internet, no newspapers, no books, and no 10,000 kinds of wonderful life, what he faced was the monotonous sky and barren land, surrounded by Looking at the mountains and mountains of the village, the only entertainment throughout the year is to use inferior anesthetics to get himself drunk. Can he bear it? If it is you, cut off the Internet and live without entertainment, how long can you endure?
"The logic is the same.
"For people living in the 'Superbody Era', they have to read 10,000 pieces of information every second, from the explosion of a supernova millions of light years away, to the experts and scholars in another vast world who have cultivated another From a brand-new life form to the beautiful scenery that explorers have just discovered on a certain planet... At the same time, they have to express their opinions and feelings on these ten thousand pieces of information, and combine these opinions and feelings Uploading to the super body and sharing information with everyone is as indispensable as air and water for them. Let alone going back to the ancient times when there was no information interaction at all, it is going back to the early days of the information age. It is unimaginable for all kinds of portable terminals to "only" process three or five messages per minute. If such a "tragedy" happens, they will either have a nervous breakdown or suffocate to death.
"So, you see, the act of severing yourself from the superbody and maintaining absurd independence is tantamount to mental suicide.
"Besides, communication and isolation are two-way. If you want to maintain the independence of spirit and thinking, it means that you can't spy on and share other people's wisdom, emotion and memory. You will become an isolated person outside the main civilization. Ghosts, after all, human beings live in groups, so doing this is against nature, and there is no benefit at all!"
