Wandering Spaceship in Deep Space Chapter 456: 1 old friend

Zhang Yuan found that the young partners around, although they agreed with their mouths, they actually didn't listen very much.

If you haven't experienced that era, it is impossible to have that kind of empathy, and everything becomes natural. Perhaps, this in itself is the limitation brought about by too little experience of one person. This limitation will not be compensated by the increase in IQ.

"Come on, the future will be your young people's world!" Professor Xue found himself happy, said a little too much, and waved his hand quickly.

Out of the door of the laboratory, an old friend is already waiting eagerly. This is the first deceased Zhang Yuan encountered in the new civilization, Mr. John.

In order to ensure the consistency of intelligence and the adaptability of memory, the "extraordinary" usually uses bodies cloned from the original cells. The genes may be fine-tuned, but they have not changed too much.

So, in the experiment just now, Zhang Yuan easily recognized this winking guy in the crowd.

"John?!"

"Lao Zhang, it's me! Have a drink?"

"Let's go! There is a nice restaurant over there, I will treat you."

Under the double happiness, Zhang Yuan couldn't help smiling when he saw an old friend, and his mood was even more wonderful.

The two walked into a roadside restaurant, ordered a bit of food, and then ordered a small glass of red wine.

Scientists like them don’t like to allow alcohol to damage their brains, but today they see an old friend and are happy in their hearts, so they can’t help making an exception. As long as they don’t get drunk, there is no big problem.

John took the lead and said: "Congratulations, a genius is a genius, no matter which world you are in, you are a genius... You have done something again, a long, long time ago, it seems to be the same. It seems to be easy from the tree Pick an apple."

"There are more geniuses now than before, and with the drastic improvement of learning ability, there is a lot more content that can be explored!" Zhang Yuan said with a smile, "If you don't put more effort, you can be People are far behind."

"...But if it weren't for the intellectual enhancement and human-computer interaction capabilities brought by the auxiliary brain, I think it might take ten times, or even twenty times, more time to complete this task."

In this era, with the aid of the brain and some human chip technology, whether it is mathematical modeling or coding, it is not known how much simplified than before.

On the other hand, the increase in memory has opened up a lot of barriers between disciplines. In the past, geniuses studied hard for a lifetime, and may only be proficient in a small piece. Now ordinary people can quickly learn more knowledge and be proficient in several. It has become possible to combine different disciplines.

John nodded and agreed, "The series of changes brought about by super memory is indeed an epoch-making high-tech... We finally passed this threshold. It is hard to imagine that if we fail this threshold, What will our society be like now? It may also be like some virtual worlds, lifeless."

"Two or three hundred years ago, wasn't it like this... a dangerous age. Fortunately, we have already crossed it."

The distance from the sinking of a civilization is sometimes just the effort of a generation.

Hearing this period of history, Zhang Yuan couldn’t help laughing. John was the same John. He remembered that this guy had been worried about the future of the earth’s civilization when he was on the Earth Age. Declined.

Now I am worried about the seemingly solved problem of "beyond the threshold".

"It was indeed a dangerous time, it was indeed dangerous. I have read papers related to assisting the brain, although I don't understand it..."

Zhang Yuan said: "Although the threshold of this intelligence is high, it is not unimaginably high. I think that as long as we learn from enough samples of intelligent life and crack the memory code, there are still not too many problems. . It’s just a matter of time. However, our human civilization may not be able to last for hundreds of thousands of years. This may be the limitation of mankind."

Human memory has greatly improved, and even the whole intelligence has improved a lot. Like the "ε-δ" language in advanced mathematics, it is not difficult to understand as long as it is memorized by rote.

Many people are surprised to find that some seemingly difficult subjects, such as group theory, topology and other definitions, and science subjects with a lot of concepts, have all been simplified after rote memorization.

When rote memorization has become an instinct, it has actually become a trick. Carrying it on your back will find that many subjects are actually not difficult.

John said: "The most important thing is that in terms of logical thinking, humans have no essential improvement. Therefore, the improvement brought by the auxiliary brain is still limited. This dangerous period of history may still be smashed and crush us. ."

The more abstract knowledge, the more association ability is needed, and the less improvement it can bring.

Biological scientists still don’t know how to improve the seemingly abstract ability of "logical thinking" by transforming the brain.

Moreover, the memory that the human brain can process is still limited. Nowadays, human beings can be proficient in three or five subjects without any problem, but there is no way to be proficient in thirty or fifty subjects.

The auxiliary brain can only record part of the memory, not all of it. The brain itself is also responsible for some memories. It is too difficult and too difficult to integrate a large number of memories.

Zhang Yuan smiled and said: "Now this is very good, it is impossible to reach the sky in one step. Professor Tu, who launched the final charge and picked off the brilliant pearl, passed away thirty years ago. I really want to see this. A hero."

"It is indeed a pity, but the research and development time of this auxiliary brain technology has exceeded 500 years, and it is not the credit of Professor Tu alone."

Even with some minor flaws, the two are still very satisfied with the current scientific progress, or simply can't be satisfied. The worries about civilization are long-term, but they cannot conceal short-term optimism. If there is only worry and no optimism, people will also collapse.

John suddenly asked: "In addition to assisting the brain, what do you think is the most epoch-making technology or idea?"

Zhang Yuan thought for a while: "The random number incomplete theorem! It proves that the'true random number' cannot be generated by the algorithm itself...that is, the information itself cannot generate information. This theorem is too strong, it is about the universe Essential, self-awareness, and even a crucial step for strong artificial intelligence!"

Computers can indeed generate true random numbers with the help of user activity or hardware instability. There are even specially made "true random number generators" that can use the randomness of molecular thermal motion to output random sequences. However, without the help of the external environment, the computer still cannot use the algorithm itself to generate a true random number.

Randomness~IndoMTL.com~ is inseparable from strong artificial intelligence. Under the guidance of theory, how to make strong artificial intelligence is another big issue.

"The second is the subatomic theory that can break the confinement of quarks."

Quark confinement, in simple terms, is to pull apart the energy of the combined quarks, which is enough to form a new quark in a vacuum and combine with the original quark, but as a result, a separate quark cannot be obtained. But after the introduction of subquarks and subleptons, using a small amount of energy, it can pry the conversion between quarks and generate huge energy.

Although quark energy still uses the mass-energy equation, it can convert 60% of the mass of matter into energy, which is close to 100% of antimatter!

"If quark energy can be used, mass production of antimatter is no longer a problem. Nuclear fusion energy alone is still a bit difficult. Antimatter is basically the strongest weapon of the third and even fourth level civilization."

Zhang Yuan shook his head: "No, quarks can get trillions of degrees of high temperature. A small-scale energy room really can't be done. Even the scale of Bright Galaxy is still too small. If you hollow out one Planets, it’s nice to rely on the internal volume."
