With the current science and technology, it is no longer a problem to realize the so-called multiworld and multiverse. It is nothing more than brain-computer integration technology plus virtual universe technology.

It would be even better if human sleep technology was added.

Virtual universe technology can open up any imaginable world and universe in the digital world. Regardless of whether this world or universe exists in reality or does not exist, as long as you think about it, you can create it in the digital world.

For example, the current games "Proxima Centauri" and "Europa".

The former is a world built strictly in accordance with reality, and all rules refer to the rules in reality; the latter is different, with some modifications made in the real world, which means it is a surreal world.

For another example, virtual universe technology can be used to build the worlds and universes described in the book. It can be a world of cultivation or a world of fighting spirit. As long as you can think of it, you can create it in the digital world.

To say that virtual universe technology that creates worlds and universes in the digital world is not new, then brain-computer integration technology directly breaks the barrier between human consciousness and the digital world.

The digital world has taken shape since the emergence of computers, but the digital world at this time was too simple.

After the success of brain-computer integration technology, human consciousness can directly enter the digital world, and the digital world can also be presented to humans in a way that is familiar to humans.

Naturally, human consciousness can freely enter the world and universe created in the digital world.

The virtual universe technology and brain-computer integration technology are not perfect enough. If human sleep technology is added, people can stay in the digital world, or virtual universe, for a long time.

It is very suitable to use these to simulate the development laws of the real world.

After all, a person's consciousness has been in the virtual universe since birth, and he cannot discover that the universe he is in is virtual at all.

In other words, for these people, the virtual universe is the real universe.

At this time, there can be no difference between the virtual universe and the real universe, and multiple universes can even be simulated on the basis of the real universe to predict the real universe.

Bao Qi was watching everyone looking at him, thought for a while and said: "Yes, we can do this with the science and technology we have now. It's just that the development rights of the virtual universe, to be honest, if the operation is not good, it will be really difficult." It will bring devastating disaster."

Su Zhe nodded and said, "There is no technical problem in achieving this, but at this speed, if we cannot grasp it well, it will indeed bring disaster.

Just like what we just ate, here, we can conjure up the food we want with just an idea. The key point is that the experience is still the same as in reality, only in terms of eating, plus other things, the result will be This is really hard to say. "

"Yes! If all the authority of the virtual universe is released, it means that human nature is completely released. What consequences will this have? It seems that there are too many unknowns about the development of the virtual universe. It’s hard to say what the actual situation will be like,” Xu Zhengping reminded.

Fan Xiaoming smiled and said, "I think it's good. Now we have to pay more attention to the development of the virtual universe. Not to mention technical predictions, but the general trend of human nature and human development can be simulated.

Besides, the development of the virtual universe can provide different ideas for the development of the real universe. No, we must also participate in the development of the virtual universe, and we cannot just count on those people.

Furthermore, no matter what happens in the virtual universe, it is much easier to correct than in the real universe. Even just an idea can restore the world in the virtual universe to its original state, but it is almost impossible in the real universe. "

To put it bluntly, the world in the virtual universe is just a bunch of data, but the real world is not.

According to his previous thinking, the development of the virtual universe relied on those people to promote it, and the focus of development here was on the real universe, but now his idea became a little different.

Not to mention changing the focus of development, but the importance of developing the virtual universe must be raised to the same level as the development of the real universe.

Zuo Dajun looked at a few people and said with a smile:

"I said you said I was pessimistic before, but I think you are really pessimistic. Don't you find the picture in front of you so attractive?

Do you want the scene in front of you to take place in the real universe or in the virtual universe? Don’t you want to experience such a universe?

To be honest, as long as we don't solve the problem of distance limitation, sooner or later our universe will become what I imagined.

What do we humans fear most? It’s the unknown, no matter what it is, as long as we experience it once, we can face it well.

In this way, we can experience these in advance in the virtual universe, but we still need to control what should be controlled. No matter how much trouble there is in the virtual universe, it is fine, but the premise is that it cannot affect the real world. "

To be honest, if the virtual universe is really released, even if it is limited, it will be almost impossible not to have an impact on the real world.

All we can say is to control and minimize the impact.

When Zuo Dajun said this, the scene in front of the five people became more exciting.

What a battle between human fleets and superhumans.

Superhumans are able to travel freely through space and destroy human defenses from the beginning.

All large battleships and so on were destroyed by these barbaric superhumans.

In the end, humans can only rely on remote control of humanoid bionic robots or mechas to fight against these new humans.

Compared with humans, new humans are more powerful.

Humans rely on mechas and new humans to confront each other head-on. Both can achieve a 50-50 score in offense and defense.

But the human side has a big disadvantage, that is, once the mecha attacks, its life support system is destroyed, and the human mecha is basically useless, but the new humans will not.

The body of the new humanity is as powerful as the human mecha. As long as the core of the new humanity is not destroyed, the new humanity will not burp.

When several people looked at the scene in front of them, it was like watching a documentary, with that ethereal voice explaining the scene.

The screen flashed and a line of large characters appeared.

In the final battle, humanity was defeated and the new humanity became the leader of the galaxy, looking forward to the rise of humanity and its return to the galaxy.

Seeing this line of big characters, Su Zhe and others all laughed.

"Army! Your imagination is still good, and the picture is good, but the story cannot withstand scrutiny. These new humans in the picture are just scum in front of the SS-defense system. As long as these new humans appear in the SS-defense system The covered space areas were directly named one by one." Fan Xiaoming said.

Bao Qizheng nodded and said, "That's right. For these new humans, the ss-defense system is absolutely crushing. But why do these new humans look like humanoid bionic robots with the core of artificial intelligence? What do you think? Even if they are new humans, they will look similar in appearance, but other things cannot be guaranteed."

Xu Zhengping said with a smile: "The definition of a noun will change over time. Now we are human beings. From body to consciousness, everything is defined. In a few years, we may not have physical requirements. Then Nowadays, we only care about identity and culture. Now that we are new humans, cultural identity is probably the only thing left. They subconsciously believe that they are human beings, and they no longer care about their bodies.”

The definition of human beings is inherently fluid and will change over time.

Su Zhe's face was full of smiles, "There is really going to be a conflict between humans and new humans. It's hard to say what the outcome will be. Before it actually happens, the good ones are called predictions, and the bad ones are called armchair talks. What will be the outcome? It depends on the actual situation."

Talking on paper will always be talking on paper, and there is a big difference between it and reality.

Just like humans and new humans, humans and strong artificial intelligence.

If a conflict occurs like this, it's really hard to say what the outcome will be.

If one side is too strong, then there is nothing to say. If both sides are similar, then it is different.

In this case, there are many factors that affect the outcome.

Zuo Dajun smiled and said: "I admit that what I think is a bit too natural, but really

There is a conflict between humans and new humans. Maybe a big killer like the SS-defense system will be destroyed from the beginning. It’s impossible to say. If you really talk about it, this is really just an idea on paper. I think The virtual universe is good. We can definitely do it in the virtual universe. "

Xu Zhengping took a sip of the tea in front of him and said, "I finally understand. What you have said so much, Dajun, is to make the virtual universe as open as possible. It is best to have no restrictions, so that we can do it." Use the virtual universe to predict the direction of the real world, or you want to experience such a universe, a doomsday universe."

Zuo Dajun nodded and said, "That's pretty much what it means. Let me tell you, it would be great if we could create digital lives that are similar to us humans. We can completely use these digital lives to replace our human roles in the virtual universe. That way Once this happens, the development of the virtual universe will be even more perfect. There can be new human beings in this virtual world, who are the same as in our real universe, and people like us in the real world are just observers."

"Digital life!" Xu Zhengping said, looking at Fan Xiaoming, Su Zhe, and Bao Qizheng, and said with a smile, "I remember you have conducted research on digital life. How about it? What are the results of your research? Is there any progress?"

"What! You have research on digital life. When did it start? Why don't I know?" Zuo Dajun looked surprised.

"How busy are you every day? Besides, besides caring about the mechas you study every day, what else do you care about!" Fan Xiaoming said, "There are many scientific research teams for digital life research. Our research is nothing more than normal. To put it bluntly, We started doing research in this area half a year ago, and there has been progress, some even exceeding your imagination."

While speaking, Fan Xiaoming waved his hand in front of his face, and a picture appeared in front of them. In the picture was a transparent sphere the size of a table tennis ball.

In the blink of an eye, the transparent sphere was divided into many parts. As these parts appeared, Fan Xiaoming began to explain.

"The transparent sphere we are looking at now is the carrier of the digital life we ​​have created, which is equivalent to our human brain."

"The carrier of digital life is actually built according to the structure of the human brain. The difference is that our human brain relies on neurons, and digital life relies on light quantum neurons."

"In terms of results, there is still a big gap between us and normal people, but the learning ability is almost the same as that of a four or five-year-old child."

"I estimate that within a while, we may be able to create real digital life."

After listening to Fan Xiaoming's introduction, Bao Qizheng continued.

"This is to create a new digital life. It is like raising a child. It is raised from an early age and grows up slowly."

"There is another kind of life copying, which is actually copying the memory of real people. Knowledge, simply understood, means complete consciousness, but make no mistake, this copied digital life is similar to the person being copied, but it is not the same person. They are independent individual."

"Whether it's the former or the latter, related research is being carried out simultaneously. It's still a hardware problem. Light quantum neurons are no worse than our human brain neurons, but the structure of the human brain is still It’s a mystery. Although we have simulated many functions now, the core part is still a mystery.”

Hearing what the two said, Zuo Dajun opened his mouth wide and was stunned for a while before saying: "This...isn't this just strong artificial intelligence? This or that is some kind of digital life. You are still talking about me. You are creating a new human being." , and said... Sure enough, the real world is like this, what I thought before was correct, we humans will be destroyed by our own hands sooner or later."

Fan Xiaoming shook his head and said: "It depends on how you define it. In fact, it is more accurate to say new human beings. We develop digital life to improve the virtual universe. In fact, we don't need to worry so much. The consciousness of these digital life is the same as that of us humans. They all have carriers. Speaking of which, the more advanced the digital life is, the more unique it is, and it cannot do without its carrier. Simply put, the generation of consciousness of digital life is the same as that of us humans.

It's the interaction between substances, not the data. "

Su Zhe explained: "As far as current research is concerned, the generation of consciousness is the interaction between substances. The generation of our human consciousness relies on our brains, and the generation of digital life consciousness relies on what we see. This transparent ball, of course, the digital life we ​​are currently studying has not yet developed consciousness, and there is still a long way to go before it becomes conscious."

It is now a consensus that the generation of consciousness relies on the interaction between matter, and it is a consensus generated by numerous experiments and data.

Current research on digital life mainly relies on the simulation of the human brain.

The key to its progress is the analysis of the human brain.
