Xu Zhengping glanced at Su Zhe and Ning Qiaoqiao in the distance, and then looked at the big screen.
Seeing that everything was normal with the running proton fusion device, he looked at the people in front of him.
"First of all, it is necessary for us to supervise and restrict related technologies, but there is no need to worry too much about things that have not happened yet. To be honest, those possible risks are likely to happen in the future history of mankind. But it’s hard to say how to look at it.”
"In our opinion, there are some things that cannot be done or committed, and there are some bottom lines that cannot be crossed. This is only what we think now, or of our generation."
"But these ideas will change, and as time goes by, everything is changing. Maybe it is not allowed now, such as transforming people, gene editing, etc. We are now legally and theoretically It’s not allowed, but it might not be possible in the future.”
"What is not allowed in our era may be allowed in a few years. It is hard to say."
"We can only do our best to do a lot of things. As for what it will turn out to be in the end, it's really hard to say."
"For example, the policies we are formulating now are designed to ensure the purity of human genes. This is now, but with the development of science and technology, humans have begun to spread across the universe. It is really not easy to achieve unified management. The result may be to break this policy."
"It's definitely unacceptable to us, but people at that time would think it was normal."
Xu Zhengping finished speaking.
Several people thought for a while.
Zuo Dajun said very worriedly: "I understand this, but it is still difficult to accept it, but so what if I don't accept it. Our generation can only affect the present. If our next generation thinks differently from us, then there is nothing." It’s a matter of method.”
Xu Zhengping said with a smile: "As the saying goes, thatched houses are built every year, and one generation takes care of the other. We shouldn't think too much about things that are too far away. We can make long-term plans and develop the present."
Ning Changsheng nodded and said: "That's the truth. Don't think too much about things that are too far away. We should still pay attention to the present. For example, the proton nuclear fusion device that is currently being verified. After its success, we will have a better understanding of the surrounding star systems. Although there is no faster-than-light flight technology yet, we have a proton nuclear fusion device, and we have the ability to do so. It may take a little longer, but it can be done."
In his opinion, what Xu Zhengping said was very reasonable.
If it is too far away, it is really difficult and impossible to interfere.
Furthermore, each generation has its own ideas, and it is impossible to control them.
Si Wenbo nodded and said: "Yes! But! I still think that the half a year it takes to build Second Earth is too long, of course. After the neutrino detection equipment and neutrino communication equipment come out, it will be faster. It is estimated that it will only take four months, but I feel that four months is still too long. Well, actually I know that this time is already very fast, but I still feel that it is too slow."
He himself knew very well that with current science and technology, it would take four months to build the Second Earth, which is already very fast.
Such a speed would have been unimaginable in the past, but now it can be built in four months.
But!
He always felt that it was still full, and that he could still go faster.
Zuo Dajun looked at Si Wenbo helplessly, "That's not it! If you think it's enough to build the Second Earth in four months, there's nothing you can say about it."
Fan Xiaoming nodded and said, "I don't know how. In reality, no matter what is being built or manufactured, everyone is satisfied and don't know what's going on."
Xu Zhengping thought for a moment and said with a smile: "I know what's going on. I think everyone thinks that the reason why reality is not fast enough is the virtual universe. Take the Second Earth as an example. Now it takes four people to create it in reality. Months of time, but how long does it take in the virtual universe? It is no exaggeration to say that if everything is ready, then we can complete the creation of the second Earth in the virtual universe with just one idea. This is still such a complicated first Earth Two, those are the simple ones, so it’s even simpler to do.”
This is what he suddenly remembered.
For now, the current manufacturing capacity is already very strong.
Take a flying car as an example.
After the design is completed, the intelligent and automated factory will directly coordinate and the designed flying car can be produced soon.
As it stands now, this process takes two hours.
This is in reality.
In a virtual universe, as long as the design is completed, the flying car will appear in the virtual universe in the next second.
When the two times of reality and the virtual universe are compared, the result will naturally come out.
Zuo Dajun was shocked, "This...this, is really what happened. Yes, we always feel satisfied. It is caused by such long-term comparison. In the virtual universe, as long as we are well designed and prepared, we can do it in an instant." To produce a product, all operations are completed instantly, but in reality, there is a process.”
As soon as Principal Xu Zhengping reminded him, he suddenly woke up.
He has a deep understanding of this aspect.
Take their mechas for example.
In the virtual universe, the design of mechas is completed instantly.
After the design is completed, just an idea and the mecha can appear in front of them.
But in reality, this is not possible. Parts need to be manufactured slowly and then assembled.
He admitted that this process was much faster than in the past, but compared with the virtual universe, there was no comparison at all.
You know, now almost everyone uses the virtual universe for design and verification.
Gradually, everyone has become accustomed to the speed of the virtual universe. When comparing it with reality, it is natural for them to feel that reality is extremely slow.
Fan Xiaoming nodded and said: "Yes! Yes! That's the reason. I always feel that the speed in reality is too slow. I can't find the reason. It turns out that the reason is here. I have to say that it is like this. We are used to it. If the speed of the virtual universe exceeds the speed of the virtual universe, the creation speed of reality will naturally feel slower. This is inevitable, but I have never realized it before.”
In his view, manufacturing in reality cannot be faster than in the virtual universe.
In reality, there will be a manufacturing process anyway, but in the virtual universe it is much simpler.
As for the process, the calculation time is too long.
But as long as the computing power is sufficient, it can basically be completed instantly. Even if it is not completed instantly, it will only take a short time.
No matter how you look at it, it's faster than in reality.
Although the two have no comparative meaning in time, they can give people an illusion.
People unconsciously make comparisons.
Ning Changsheng smiled and said: "I really haven't noticed this, but having said that, this virtual universe is really easy to use. With continuous accumulation, this virtual universe will only become more and more powerful."
The accumulation of virtual universe is a process.
Simply put, the virtual universe is a copy of the real universe.
At the beginning, there were only the most basic data and rules, but with the continuous accumulation and improvement of data, the virtual universe will become stronger and stronger.
In other words, the virtual universe will become more and more useful.
At the beginning, the virtual universe at that time was not called a virtual universe, it was called a virtual world.
It was just getting started at that time, and even doing a design or something was still very troublesome.
No.
After it became a virtual universe, especially after the brain computer came out, the data entered the virtual universe.
As this data comes in and improves.
The virtual universe is getting stronger and stronger.
Just like the proton nuclear fusion device designed by Su Zhe was designed and verified in the virtual universe.
This is true for proton fusion devices, and other things will be faster.
Speaking of which, the rules of the virtual universe are replicas of the real universe.
But there are still differences between the two.
As far as the real universe is concerned, everything has a process, and following certain rules, there is a cycle of matter and energy.
Depending on the actual situation, it’s hard to say how long this process will take.
Some are long and some are short.
For example, human growth takes time.
In this process, material and energy are consumed.
This is the real universe.
In the virtual universe, the appearance is similar to that in the real universe, but the time is completely different and the rules followed are different.
In the virtual universe, the most important thing is computing power.
As long as you have enough computing power, you can go as fast as you want.
Compared with the real universe, the virtual universe is cheating.
Xu Zhengping smiled and said: "That's for sure. The more people use the virtual universe, the more data it can analyze, the more powerful the virtual universe will be. To be honest, we can develop at such a fast pace without the virtual universe. s help."
This is not something you say casually.
Talk about it.
People, virtual universes, intelligent automated manufacturing factories, humanoid bionic robots and other remote control devices are all connected to each other.
Except for a few facilities.
Whether it is people or remote control devices, they are all connected to the virtual universe.
All relevant data must pass through the virtual universe.
It can be seen from this that the virtual universe is improving and becoming more powerful every moment.
Just like the design done in the virtual universe.
Such as proton nuclear fusion device.
After design verification is completed, the parts that need to be produced are automatically split.
The production data of these parts will be distributed to different intelligent automated manufacturing factories, and their assembly processes will also be distributed to corresponding artificial intelligence and robots.
In other words, this process is automatic.
Being able to do this is all accumulated bit by bit.
Every step has been proven repeatedly.
From simple to complex.
Furthermore, the virtual universe is quite a large collection.
It takes care of all aspects, such as restrictions on artificial intelligence.
Artificial intelligence is artificial intelligence, robots are robots, and the two are separate.
Whether in a manufacturing factory or elsewhere, artificial intelligence and remote-controlled equipment are far apart.
The two are connected after passing through the virtual universe.
On the one hand, it is for the collection of virtual universe data, and on the other hand, there are restrictions on artificial intelligence.
Fan Xiaoming nodded and said: "Yes! If there is no virtual universe, then we really can't play it. The proton nuclear fusion device we are running will not be completed in this way, and the efficiency will definitely be much worse. a lot of."
Si Wenbo said with a smile: "If there is no virtual universe, it is unimaginable. If nothing else, then the design of Second Earth will take no idea how long it will take. In my opinion, the virtual universe integrates all of our human technologies." , as long as it appears once, we don’t need to redesign it when we use it again. It can be used directly.”
The reason why they say that Second Earth can be completed in just four months is because of the virtual universe, intelligent automated manufacturing factories, artificial intelligence and robots.
And its core is the virtual universe.
You know, the design and verification of Second Earth were all completed in the virtual universe.
Although the verification of the proton nuclear fusion device has not yet ended, their design for Second Earth has basically been completed.
Designing in a virtual universe is much faster than before.
Artificial intelligence cooperates with design, and all it needs is ideas and requirements.
The most important thing is that after the design is completed, it can be verified immediately, and whether it works or not will be known soon.
For example, designing a flying car in a virtual universe.
If the requirements are not high, there is no requirement for personal knowledge reserves.
You just put forward your ideas and requirements.
Artificial intelligence can design one or more flying cars based on your ideas and requirements.
If you don't want to, you can continue to put forward ideas and requests.
For example, the car is too long and needs to be shortened.
The artificial intelligence will make modifications immediately, and other spare parts will also make corresponding modifications.
This process can be repeated continuously.
Of course, in this case, only existing technologies or designs can be used on the flying car.
If it is a new technology, it will be a little more troublesome, and this new technology needs to be verified.
This new technology is now being verified in the virtual universe, and then in reality. After passing it, this new technology can be used in flying cars.
At the same time, this new technology can be used in other places.
Yes, in the virtual universe, it is not that restrictive technology, it is basically shared.
It’s not that there are no intellectual property rights in the past.
There are still some.
If anyone makes a new technology or discovery, he will first get a certificate and a big bonus.
As for any authorization or anything like that, there is no such thing.
Because licensing and the like have been shared, it means that you don’t need money when using other people’s new technologies and discoveries.
To put it simply, it is a one-time buyout for everyone to use.
Due to changes in the social structure, people generally no longer value money, but the certificate.
This certificate represents honor.
As for why people don’t value money.
That's because everyone is full.
As far as the current situation is concerned, everyone can live a prosperous life, and if they have enough money, they can basically buy whatever they want.
Of course, it is within a reasonable range.
In this case, money is just a number, and no one takes it seriously.
Some people died, but not completely...
