For now, resources and energy will not be lacking for a long time.
With these resources and energy, it means there is endless wealth.
How this wealth is distributed is an interesting topic.
Based on the results of discussions at the Science and Technology Development and Human Resources Development Symposium.
The existing wealth distribution plan will not change, but more resources and energy will be invested in scientific research.
Simply put, in the future 90% of personnel will participate in scientific research work.
Regardless of whether it is enterprises or personnel, after receiving basic scientific research funds, they want more scientific research funds, or they want more income.
Then we have to exchange the results for it.
He quite agrees with the outcome of this discussion.
Xu Zhengping nodded and said seriously: "Ninety percent of domestic personnel are involved in scientific research work, and the competition will be very intense."
"Competition! What we are not afraid of is competition." Fan Xiaoming said and glanced at Su Zhe, "But it is foreseeable that with so many people participating in scientific research work, science and technology will usher in explosive development in the short term. , I just don’t know if there is a critical and significant breakthrough.”
"It's hard to say." Xu Zhengping smiled, "But I already have a plan in mind for the future development of the school. By the way, I want to build the high-energy space city into a mobile one, which will be more convenient."
"Mobile is also feasible." Fan Xiaoming thought for a while and said, "Then we need to make some changes to the high-energy space city."
Now, the high-energy space city is under intensive design.
As for the place of design, it is in the virtual universe.
There are many people involved in the design of high-energy space cities.
There are 30,000 core personnel, and even more peripheral personnel, totaling more than 10 million.
Because designing in a virtual universe is very convenient.
It is extremely convenient for designers to communicate or make modifications.
Most importantly, after designing in the virtual universe, it can be tested immediately.
It can be said that in the virtual universe, most problems can be solved very well.
Xu Zhengping nodded and said seriously: "That's what I thought. The high-energy space city has a diameter of one thousand kilometers. In terms of area alone, it is larger than the area of the Tamu Desert. I just thought about it. Some are replicated in high-energy space cities, covering the entire industrial system’s automated factories, various laboratories, large scientific equipment, etc.”
His idea was that simple.
He wants to recreate everything in the Tamu Desert.
Although it is a replica, there are still differences.
For example, everything in the Tamu Desert has gravity, in the environment of the earth.
According to his idea, a high-energy space city has no gravity or microgravity and is in a space environment.
Automated factories, various laboratories, and large scientific devices covering the entire industrial system under different environments.
To be honest, there are many similarities between Tamu Gobi and High Energy Space City.
Just like the Super Hadron Collider.
"Re-engraving..." Su Zhe thought for a while and said, "It is feasible. Although it is difficult and there are many challenges, these are not problems. I completely agree with the principal's proposal."
"Yes! I agree too." Fan Xiaoming said with a smile.
Then, the three began to discuss the details of the modifications to the high-energy space city.
Previously, the high-energy space city was planned to be placed at a Lagrange point in the solar system, but now the requirement is to be able to move freely.
】
To achieve free movement, the most critical thing is such a massive artificial celestial body.
That requires providing huge thrust, which means adding a large number of engines and then energy systems.
In a short time, the three of them decided on the general direction for the modification of the high-energy space city.
The revised plan was immediately sent to the scientific research team responsible for the high-energy space city.
"We hope that the high-energy space city can be built as soon as possible, and then we will have two sets of training bases with a full industrial system." Xu Zhengping said with a smile.
"The construction of a high-energy space city will take two or three years anyway. After all, there is still a lot to be done in the country." Fan Xiaoming said with a smile, "But this is just an estimate now. It may not take more than two or three years." .”
With increasing automation and the involvement of humanoid robots.
Its domestic productivity is exploding.
Just like making humanoid bionic robots and game cabins.
Manufacturing factories are basically automated.
Its automated factories were built one after another.
As long as raw materials and energy are sufficient, humanoid bionic robots, game cabins and other related industrial products can be continuously produced.
This is the case in the country now.
Relevant companies are working towards fully automated production.
As discussed in the seminar.
In the future, industrial product production, including agriculture, will be fully automated and intelligent.
All people have to do is scientific research and some services.
In contrast, social patterns will also change.
As for what it will become, it’s hard to say now.
"How long it will take depends on the actual development speed." Su Zhe nodded and said, "That's right! I heard that the School of Computer Science has developed a new generation of artificial intelligence, which can complete non-creative tasks, especially It’s those repetitive tasks.”
This year, it is not just Jiutian Research Center that is developing rapidly, other colleges in the school are also developing rapidly.
Among them, the School of Computer Science and the School of Architecture are the most prominent.
The School of Computer Science has creatively developed some original things such as remote-controlled humanoid bionic robots, game cabins, virtual universes, etc.
In particular, remote control of humanoid bionic robots and game cabins has greatly promoted the development of productivity.
Then there is the School of Architecture.
During this year, the School of Architecture developed rapidly.
In terms of disciplines, not only have other disciplines been drawn into the School of Architecture, but its business is no longer simply the design and construction of traditional buildings such as houses and bridges.
Right now, it's just the construction of facilities on Earth, the construction of those facilities in geosynchronous orbit, or the construction of those on the moon.
All schools of architecture are involved.
Specifically, such as the design and construction of space cities, solar energy collection stations, light energy transmission stations, etc.
After all, in the eyes of teachers and students at the School of Architecture, everything is “architecture.”
Xu Zhengping nodded with a smile and said: "Yes! It is true. From their tests, the new generation of artificial intelligence is not bad, such as those repetitive tasks and those with mature solutions. These artificial intelligence It can all be done.”
He is aware of the development of the School of Computer Science.
Especially Bao Qizheng, who came to the school in the same class as Su Zhe.
Although not as good as Su Zhe, the difference is not big.
These achievements of the School of Computer Science are almost all driven by Baoqi.
"That's right! That's a great thing." Fan Xiaoming said, "In this way, those 90-minute jobs in the past can be replaced, which will free up more people to engage in scientific research."
"Those jobs that have mature solutions and those that are repetitive should indeed be replaced." Su Zhe smiled, "Humans like us are very suitable for creative jobs."
With the development of science and technology, this day will come sooner or later.
The only difference is that the time is different in the morning and evening.
"Are you planning to use artificial intelligence to control humanoid bionic robots and other devices?" Fan Xiaoming asked with a smile.
Xu Zhengping nodded and said: "That's more or less the case, but don't worry, safety facilities have been put in place, and there will be no humanoid bionic robots controlled by artificial intelligence or other devices that can hurt people."
For these, preparations should be made from the first day of developing artificial intelligence.
Such preparation is carried out from both hardware and software aspects.
According to the actual situation, today's artificial intelligence is only weak artificial intelligence and has no main consciousness.
To put it more bluntly, current artificial intelligence is just a rigid program and does not pose a threat to people.
Fan Xiaoming and Su Zhe nodded.
The two of them are clear about the precautions against artificial intelligence.
"With the participation of artificial intelligence, productivity will grow explosively. It's hard to say when the high-energy space city will be completed. It's a year or two, maybe faster." Fan Xiaoming said seriously.
Su Zhe nodded with a smile and said: "It will be right soon, but we still have to wait for the development of the moon and Mars, as well as the asteroid belt. Building a high-energy space city requires a lot of resources, which are all obtained from the earth. This is not a good choice. "
There are many projects underway right now.
Such as light beam projects, beam channels, space ports, the construction of many automated factories, etc.
These all require resources.
Right now, global resource mining is running at full capacity.
Even so, there are still embarrassing situations where projects are waiting for raw materials.
To solve this situation, we rely on the extraction of resources outside the earth.
Such as the moon, Mars, asteroid belt, Venus, Mercury, etc.
However, we are still in the early stages of fully developing the solar system.
Related resources also rely on the earth.
But things are about to change soon.
"Yes! It's okay to go slower. It's better not to over-exploit the resources on the earth." Xu Zhengping nodded.
In terms of resources, this was also discussed at the seminar.
The exploitation of the earth's resources is also the early stage of comprehensive development of the solar system.
Once this period is passed, the earth's resources will stop being exploited, and all resources used will be extracted from the outer space of the earth.
"In this case, we have to wait until the development of the moon starts to show results." Fan Xiaoming said, "Slow down, slow down, anyway, we have enough for research."
For the development of the moon.
What you need to do at the beginning is to open mines and build factories to produce raw materials.
Reproduce the building materials needed to build eleven industrial cities.
Su Zhe nodded and said: "It's okay to go slow. In fact, we should not over-exploit the moon and Mars-related planets. We must make a good assessment before mining to avoid irreversible effects."
He wasn't kidding.
Like celestial bodies in the solar system.
At this moment, we are in a delicate balance. If any one of them changes, there may be big changes.
Just like the earth and the moon.
There is a delicate balance between the two.
Whether the Earth is over-mined or the Moon is over-mined, the delicate balance will be disrupted.
Not necessarily, all kinds of natural disasters will happen on the earth.
Such as earthquakes, volcanoes, storms, etc.
The most serious one will cause the moon and the earth to collide.
This is not alarmist.
Just like the collision of two asteroids half a year ago, if it weren't for the SS-defense system, it's unknown whether there would be anyone on the earth now.
Why two asteroids collided.
At first, a satellite hit an asteroid, causing the asteroid's orbit to change.
The result was a collision between the two asteroids.
"We thought of this from the beginning. After all, the collision of two asteroids happened not long ago." Xu Zhengping nodded and said seriously, "Relevant domestic departments have joined forces with universities and research institutes to establish a solar system ecosystem monitoring center. The purpose is to monitor the threats posed by the solar system’s environment to the Earth and humans.”
This is not the past.
The development of human beings in the past has sacrificed the temporary environment.
A temporary change in the environment will most likely not threaten the survival of the entire human race in a short period of time.
Of course, this is just low-level development and development.
No matter how it develops, the resources extracted from the earth will basically remain on the earth.
Even so, human development still comes at a price.
Such as global warming, frequent extreme weather, etc.
To put it bluntly, the global environment of the earth has been changed.
The uncontrolled development of human beings has accelerated the changes in the earth's environment, making the earth's environment slowly no longer suitable for human survival.
Although there is no human intervention, the earth's environment is constantly changing. Sooner or later, there will be a day when the earth's environment is no longer suitable for human survival.
But human development has accelerated this process.
To be honest, the uncontrolled development of human beings on the earth is actually like boiling a frog in warm water.
He won't die immediately.
This is development on earth.
As for the full development of the solar system.
There are more ideas.
We really can't just sit there on earth and ignore the development.
If this is really the case, no matter when, mankind will face an unprecedented catastrophe.
For example, when developing the moon, minerals were over-exploited and the mines were transported away from the moon.
Once the mine is mined excessively, the total mass at the end decreases and its gravity changes.
On the contrary, if the moon's gravity changes, the entire ecology and environment of the earth will change accordingly.
If the moon hits the earth, humanity will be wiped out in minutes.
The same is true for developing other celestial bodies in the solar system.
If you are not careful, it may cause a chaos among the celestial bodies in the solar system.
Although Jupiter and Saturn are taking care of it, once things get messed up, both of them may suffer.
For the development of the solar system, we must be careful and careful.
If you don't, the team will be wiped out.
This is the purpose of establishing the Solar System Ecosystem Monitoring Center.
Don’t let humans kill themselves to death.
Of course, the purpose of establishing the Solar System Ecosystem Monitoring Center is not just for these.
Also monitor other changes in the solar system that pose threats to humanity.
The most important of these is the sun itself.
For the sun, a small burst.
Just like when a person sneezes.
It's no small thing when the sun sneeze.
At worst, the earth's environment will become bad, and at worst, humanity will be wiped out.
It’s okay if the sun’s output is stable, but if it’s unstable, humanity will suffer.
