Chapter 329 The future of mankind

It is not that easy to achieve electron immortality.

Of course, everyone knows this.

From ancient times to the present, from reality to literary works, there will be no lack of people who pursue eternal life.

For example, in ancient Tianxia, ​​there were various emperors who ate immortality pills and ate death. No matter how much they were, they were just a bit real or a bit fabricated, which showed humans' pursuit of immortality.

There are also various literary works that pursue immortals and seek Taoism. Even when Sun Wukong was studying Taoism, he asked first: "Can you get immortality?"

And many foreign legends, such as making deals with demons for immortality, offering sacrifices to indescribable beings for their own lives, praying for God to give them permanent life, and turning into a black and destroyed world without giving them, are all similar things.

These things can all show some of human mentality, and a longer life span has always been what humans pursue.

"I want to live longer" is not only an extension of power and desire for pleasure, but also of great significance to the development of human civilization.

Do you think, how many major projects are saved because the death of the leader is stagnant? How many experiments are conducted at critical moments because the death of the leader is thrown into the archives and eat dust?

Although everyone is human, you have to admit that people cannot be generalized, and the leading role of some people is truly unparalleled!

People will feel regret when their lives are overwhelming.

If the Emperor of Eternal Life lives for another twenty years, what kind of impact will it have on the world?

You should know that he was a person who established the unified system of Tianxia, ​​and the great dynasties in later generations were modified based on him.

What if the Russians' aerospace transport expert lived for another twenty years?

You should know that he is the one who has made the Russian aerospace technology ahead of Merecon for a long time, and has pushed Meirukan out of breath in the early stages of the space race.

"If TA lives for a few more years, the world will definitely be different."

This is a question that many people have thought about.

Although human technology is not good at present, it cannot stop human brains. Various literary works have already given many paths.

There are many roads, but in summary, it is roughly divided into two paths: one is the eternal life of the flesh and the other is the eternal life of the electron.

It is easy to say that the eternal life of the body is to use various techniques to maintain the health of the body so that you can live forever, or even be more extreme. If your own body is not good, you can change your head and use other people's bodies.

From the beginning of human beings, this is basically what we have taken. With the development of technology, various diseases and injuries have been solved. From the average life span of human beings in their teens to the average age of seventy, and will be longer in the future until they break through the limits of human life, this path will be completed.

The immortality of electrons is even more extreme. Now scientific research has found that the human body does not seem to be a necessary part of "life".

Just like farming, people’s early belief was that plants had to be planted in the land before they could grow, but now people have found that it is possible to plant them without soil, and they can also be planted in water.

Some people believe that the body is actually similar to the brain, it is just a device for conveying nutrition.

If the technology is enough, you can just pick your brain out and put it in a nutrient box to survive and think about it. As long as the nutrient solution in the nutrient box is not exhausted, as long as the energy supply is continuous.

Even more extreme, you don’t want all matter, not only the body, but also the brain, just "consciousness"!

Some people believe that human self-cognition is just some memory and some electrical signals, which are also some related technologies for neural connection to virtual reality. If all consciousness is converted into electrical signals and uploaded directly to computers and networks, humans can also live forever.

But there is one problem that needs to be solved in these methods, that is, the "self" problem.

It’s okay to constantly strengthen your body. After all, all the parts belong to your own, but the lifespan has increased, and you are still yourself. This is easy to understand.

If you change your head and body, then should you be considered yourself, or someone else, or two-in-one?

The upload of consciousness is even more amazing, and you don’t even want the body. At least the brain in the tank has a brain, which is the thing on your body, and consciousness becomes a string of data.

At that time, are you, or even you, still a human?

What is the difference between you and advanced artificial intelligence?

Should you be called electronic life?

If you have a mechanical body, you are a real "robot", so are you going to have a mechanical ascension?

In the end, many problems are not just technical issues, but also human morality and ethics.

The roles played by ethics and morality are also dual.

Some people believe that they are buffer layers for the stable development of human civilization and are very necessary.

Some people think that they are obstacles to the development of human civilization and are completely unnecessary.

Without ethical and moral intervention, humans may have now transformed into "tenactile monsters" through various artificial biological engineering.

"You" can accept it, or even "you" feels good and practical, it is all about "you", but some people don't accept it, and some people just think that the original form of human beings is beautiful and only accepts human form.

If there is another racial division, and finally humans and "humans" start to fight themselves, who will end up fighting the end of civilization?

So although the pilot has now sprinted towards the 100% nerve infiltration level, reaching 100% is not the end point, but a starting point, and then there is still a lot of things to do.

Even whether the last 100% of the infiltrated equipment should be shelved or permanently sealed is also a question.

But that's what happened next, and it's also something that humanities scientists have to argue. For now, the old scientist who has listened to Tang Chao's talk about the prospect can no longer sit still.

What is open-minded, what is open-minded, what is left to young people, doesn’t exist, I can work for another twenty years!

Some elderly people even said on the spot, "When do you need a real person test? Come to me, I will be a 100% infiltrating tester!"

Well, I still see it. It doesn’t matter if I die. I have been studying the project for my whole life and have made breakthroughs, and I will devote myself to it.

Seeing that the old scientists were getting more and more excited, Tang Chao didn't dare to let them stay here, so he quickly took them away.

I originally wanted the old scientists to rest, but they didn't. They also wanted to discuss with Tang Chao about introducing equipment.

With the infiltration cabin with a level of 80%, helmets with a level of up to 50% will certainly look down on them.

Of course, the helmet market must be supported. After all, it is for the general public. It is a huge order of magnitude, and a subsidy of 100 billion will not be short. However, in the high-end and sophisticated fields, that is another matter.

For example, in the Space Administration, Advanced Research Institute and other places, the most cost-effective use of infiltration cabins.

Although the infiltration cabin is expensive, it doesn’t cost much to use in those places, so it’s actually “not much money”.

When money can be exchanged for high performance, and money is not a matter of work, people are happy to do it.

The requirement to buy the infiltrating cabin is nothing. Tang Chao was going to sell it to them when he asked them to see it.

But this matter has to be kept secret, and now the outside world only knows 50% of the helmets.

At least it has to be kept confidential for a period of time, only...
