Xueba's life simulator

Chapter 258 Mars Hydroponics Module
There is another important reason why this organ 3D printing technology was developed so quickly this time. It is because of the "evolution" research and development of genetic drugs and the advancement of organ cloning technology, which not only successfully improved the medical level of China, but also saved the lives of many people in China. The lives of many ordinary people have also been saved for the Chinese scientific community by a group of scientists who would have otherwise died of illness, and the lifespan of many scholars has been extended.

Many of these scholars who have been cured of their physical diseases and extended their lives are older. Although many of them have reached the age of 80 or [-], they still insist on the front line of scientific research.

Even if some do not continue to do research, they still work as teachers in colleges and universities, teaching and educating people.

There are also quite a few students brought out by these old scholars, and it can be said that the world is full of peaches and plums.

And their students, seeing the future development prospects of Zhou Ming's experimental team's related research fields, coupled with the reasons of their teachers, also moved their research directions closer to the research fields of Zhou Ming's experimental teams.

In this way, Zhou Ming's biological experiment team gathered a large number of biological talents in Huaguo at once in the fields involved in the research, and the natural organ cloning technology was also the same.

Under such circumstances, the development speed of organ 3D printing technology based on organ cloning technology will naturally increase.

After the experience at the age of 30 was over, with the changes in Zhou Ming's surroundings, soon his text experience at the age of 31 also emerged on the interface in front of him.

[At the age of 31, with your wholehearted dedication, you have successfully developed an artificial intelligence technology with autonomous consciousness that can be carried by the current hardware level. 】

"31 years old? Isn't that the year [-]? It's only six years from now. It seems that the speed is quite fast!"

After seeing the written experience of his 31-year-old year displayed on the interface in front of him, Zhou Ming also had a smile on his face, and thought in his heart.

As long as he in the simulated world successfully transforms the artificial intelligence technology with self-awareness so that it can appear on a non-quantum computer, Zhou Ming will be able to reshape it in the real world after the simulation is over, and the time will not be too long. will be earlier than in the simulated world.

The surrounding environment began to change, and soon Zhou Ming found himself in a spacious room.

There are many people in this room. These people include children of seven or eight years old, and middle-aged people who seem to be in their 50s and [-]s. They are also dressed casually, and they don't look like researchers.

Zhou Ming, who was using the life simulator, realized that this group of people was the first group of ordinary people who came to visit and test this artificial intelligence when he listened to them.

Previously, Zhou Ming and related researchers in the simulated world had conducted some professional tests on this artificial intelligence, and there were no problems.

Now, what they have to do is to change the people who ask questions from these fixed people to those who come to visit. Do more extensive testing.

"Where are you from?"

A young man in his 20s asked the artificial intelligence. It seemed that he planned to ask the artificial intelligence according to the three philosophical questions.

The so-called three philosophical questions are "Who am I, where am I from, and where am I going?" These questions have existed for thousands of years.

"I was created at the Luzhou Artificial Intelligence Research Center with Professor Zhou Ming and his team as the main research subjects."

The artificial intelligence in front of them replied.

Sure enough, the young man went on to ask his second question about the artificial intelligence.

"Who are you?"

"If you're asking about my name, I don't have a name yet. If you're asking about what I am, I'm an inanimate body. My body is made up of various mechanical parts, and my consciousness is made up of a series of complex The code is made of..."

The artificial intelligence replied to the young man in detail.

"where do you want to go?"

"I'm not going anywhere. It's not up to me to decide where to go. It's up to whoever made me, or someone else."

……

Zhou Ming and the others also restricted the questions everyone asked. Each person could only ask three questions at most. The purpose was to allow the people behind to have the opportunity to ask questions.

If there were no restrictions, Zhou Ming and the others estimated that some people would be able to ask for a day alone, which is not what they want to see.

"Can you play chess?"

"meeting."

"Can you play chess?"

"meeting."

"Can you play chess?"

"meeting."

Someone in the back asked three repeated questions in a row. Seeing that the so-called autonomous artificial intelligence in front of them seemed to be a stupid machine, not as they thought, the person who asked the question also showed a look of disappointment. .

Because in the eyes of many people, if this is really an artificial intelligence with autonomous consciousness, then when they repeat questions like this, the answer of the artificial intelligence should also be in another state.

Still take "Can you play chess" as an example, if you ask the first article, then its answer is still yes.

But if you repeat "Can you play chess" after it answers "yes", then in many people's eyes, if it really has autonomous consciousness, then the normal answer should be something like "yes" , I’ve just said that” and so on.

If you ask the third time "Can you play chess?", then its answer should be similar to "Are you annoying, why do you keep asking the same question?"

Because in the eyes of many people, to have autonomous consciousness should be like human beings, possessing all kinds of human emotions and desires.

But they forget that the purpose of artificial intelligence is to serve human beings, and it is not good for human beings to make them have emotions.

After the person who repeatedly asked "Can you play chess" three times just finished asking, the person behind him also asked the artificial intelligence: "The person asked you three questions just now, don't you feel bored?"

"Although I have the same thinking ability as you humans, I don't have an emotional system and various desires. I was created to serve humans, so I don't feel bored. If you don't find it boring, you do Ask for a year, and I can answer for a year like this."

"You also said that you have the ability to think, and you also said that you have self-awareness, so can you talk about where your self-consciousness and thinking ability are reflected?"

"In addition to emotions and desires, where your human self-awareness and thinking ability are reflected, my self-consciousness and thinking ability are reflected.

You can regard the person itself as a computer, and the program it executes is nothing more than a higher degree of automation. Your five sense organs can all be classified as input signals. Take vision as an example, light irradiates the retina, and then the optic nerve It is transmitted to the lateral geniculate nucleus of the thalamus, and then to the V1 area of ​​​​the primary visual cortex of the occipital lobe, and then divided into two routes, one leading to the parietal lobe, to the motor visual MT area responsible for eye tracking, and the other leading to the temporal lobe, responsible for object recognition The visual cognition IT area of…”

...

Zhou Ming, a bystander who was using the life simulator for the simulation, did not show any surprise when he saw the first artificial intelligence answerer with autonomous consciousness in the simulation world who came to visit the various questions.

After all, Zhou Ming also has this kind of knowledge in his mind. This kind of artificial intelligence is the castrated version of artificial intelligence that he created based on the accidental artificial intelligence in the previous simulation.

The reason why it is called the castrated version is because the artificial intelligence that was accidentally born in the simulated world had the same emotions as humans.

And the artificial intelligence created by Zhou Ming later has no emotions and desires.

It's not that Zhou Ming doesn't want to have it, but because he can't create artificial intelligence like the artificial intelligence that was born by accident.

But if you want to say that these artificial intelligences become as if they have human emotions, Zhou Ming can also do it, but this does not mean that they really have human emotions, this is actually imitated by algorithms and continuous human learning come out.

Since it is learning to imitate, there will definitely be bugs, but as far as Zhou Ming knows, the artificial intelligence with autonomous consciousness that was accidentally born in the previous simulation world seems to have never had bugs.

At least, no matter whether it was in his simulation experience after the artificial intelligence appeared, or in the words left by himself in the simulated world at the end, Zhou Ming had never heard about the bug in the artificial intelligence.

And the reason why Zhou Ming in the simulated world didn't let this artificial intelligence show emotions is because once it shows human-like emotions, then even if you tell others that their emotions are all simulated, In fact, they don't have any emotions, they are just a machine, but many people can't listen to it.

Once artificial intelligence really shows emotion, it is estimated that many people will run out to fight for human rights for robots, which violates the original intention of artificial intelligence with autonomous consciousness.

This is not just talking, because by then the daily life of ordinary people will definitely be able to live comfortably, and once people have enough food and drink, they will find other things to do to pass the time. Naturally, some people think that robots with human appearance and human emotions should live like ordinary people, instead of serving others and working in factories every day.

But they were created to serve humanity better, not to make them human.

[At 32, the Biosphere Program was officially launched. 】

"Project Biosphere? What is this?"

After the experience of his 31-year-old year ended, Zhou Ming's textual experience of his 32-year-old year appeared on the screen in front of him soon.

However, Zhou Ming showed a puzzled expression when he saw the written experience of his 32-year-old year displayed on the screen in front of him.

Because as far as Zhou Ming knew about the plans related to the biosphere, the most important thing was to build the biosphere in the base that could survive on the moon.

When using the life simulator for simulations before, Zhou Ming also knew some things about the biosphere of the base to be built in the future from the simulation experience.

Zhou Ming still remembers that in that simulated world, when he was 37 years old, Huaguo successfully built the first lunar base on the moon. This base has a biosphere that can form a self-circulating artificial ecological cycle system. The biosphere would allow humans to live on the Moon as if they were on Earth.

But it would be even more wrong if the biosphere project mentioned here is the one about the moon base, because Huaguo started this project very early. Even in the previous simulated world, although Zhou Ming participated in it, he was not The person who proposed the plan, but the improver who improved it based on the future knowledge in his head.

When Biosphere 26 was built and moved in for the first time, it was September [-], [-]. Zhou Mingke was not born at that time.

With these doubts in his heart, Zhou Ming began to observe his current environment.

After seeing Zhou Ming's transformed environment, the doubts in Zhou Ming's heart increased rather than decreased, because in his opinion, the Biosphere Project is still in a confined space, right?

But now Zhou Ming is in an ordinary biological laboratory.

And the self in the simulated world is in this laboratory with other researchers, doing experiments.

"Didn't I focus my research on artificial intelligence before? Why did I return to the biology laboratory? However, this laboratory looks quite high-tech, and there is a big gap compared with when I simulated it." ?”

Looking at the experiment he was doing in the laboratory, Zhou Ming thought in his heart.

Not long after looking at the experiment going on in the laboratory, Zhou Ming, who was using the life simulator, realized what kind of experiment he was doing at this time. It turned out to be an experiment about a special solution.

Speaking of this special solution, it is an important part of the human Mars colonization plan in a previous simulation, and its whole is a hydroponic module.

Hydroponics, also known as hydroponics, soilless cultivation or vat farming, is a method of growing plants in nutrient-rich water, with or without an inert medium such as sand or gravel as a mechanical support, periodically pumped into the fertilizer solution.

As the plants grow, the concentration of the solution and the frequency of pumping fertilizers increases accordingly, because of the presence of this solution, many kinds of vegetables and flowers can grow well in the gravel.

In the simulated world, Zhou Ming and his team are studying the hydroponic culture, which is extremely adaptable. With it, vegetables and other plants can be directly grown on the surface of Mars. In this way, Mars can be completely changed in the future. Due to the climate and environment on Mars, humans on Mars no longer live in Mars base warehouses.

However, Zhou Ming has never seen such a situation in any of the previous simulations, because it is not possible to completely change the environment of a planet, it is a task that will take at least a hundred years .

Just when Zhou Ming was thinking about people experimenting with this special solution in the future, he found that his surroundings had changed again.

But after this change, it didn't turn back into his study, but into a conference room.
