Cultivate a black technology god

Chapter 168 Quantum Collapse and the Shurangama Sutra

Robert froze in place.

Xia Zhi couldn't help thinking that Robert's role was stuck.

He walked over to wake Robert up.

At this time, the side door was opened, and another Robert came out from inside.

Xia Zhi was very surprised to see Robert, and then looked back at the frozen Robert.

When Robert saw Xia Zhi, he smiled and said:

"President Xia, I heard that you entered my manor, so I came to see you right away."

Xia Zhi pointed to the frozen Robert and asked:
"Your avatar?"

Robert was amused by Xia Zhi's words. He sat down and explained to Xia Zhi:

"That Robert is my AI, and I'm the AI's baseline."

Xia Zhi let out an oh, and said with a smile:

"You are here to study your own simulated artificial intelligence."

Robert nodded:

"I'm terminally ill, and I don't have much time left. I had hoped for medicine, but it could extend my lifespan for two or three years at most. I finally found that I had to rely on myself. I decided to develop my own artificial intelligence to replace me."

Xia Zhi smiled and said:

"After being replaced, you are not you anymore."

Robert shook his head:

"That's not necessarily true. If it's 100% like me, isn't it me?"

Xia Zhi squinted his eyes and asked:

"Consciousness upload?"

Speaking of this, Xia Zhi thought of an interesting sci-fi concept:

Flesh is weak, machinery soars.

A technology from the P agency game "Stellaris (Stars)", which digitizes biological consciousness, abandons the physical body and adopts a mechanical body to achieve immortality.

Robert nodded:
"That's almost what it means. Do you know about quantum collapse?"

Xia Zhi didn't know about this thing, but when he was in the game, the game panel brought up the search engine at any time, and he searched for what quantum collapse was.

Wikipedia says so:

Before observation, a quantum exists in the form of a wave (reflecting the probability of finding the quantum).When observed, the quantum must exist in a definite position, that is, the original quantum wave collapses into a point (also called a needle wave), and the quantum shows particle nature at this time. (quantum)
Here is how it collapses. Everyone thinks that there is a certain physical mechanism process that we don't understand, and we can't just use the word collapse to avoid everything.

However, Copenhagen believes that this is the case, because the purpose of observation is to determine the state, otherwise observation itself is not a successful method, or the means of observation is a failure, until we always have a way to develop effective equipment .Any effective means of observing the microcosm is successfully designed, which in itself means that a clear result can be obtained, that is, the state is determined.

Because of this, once observed, the uncertain system will be observed to act and become a definite state.This is an obvious reason!It's like, on a calm water surface, if you throw a stone into it, ripples will appear on the water surface. This is the effect of throwing a stone.

Throwing stones is like a means of observation, and has nothing to do with consciousness.

Xia Zhi didn't quite understand, and looked at Robert.

Robbit said with a strange smile:

"It's electrons. When you don't measure them, they exist everywhere, and they don't exist everywhere. Once you measure them, electrons will come out in a fixed state. The same is true for consciousness. If you see this flower, you will suddenly When you think about it, thinking about it is actually taking a measurement. You measure it with your nose and find it is fragrant. You measure it with your eyes and find it is red and beautiful. You measure it with your mind and find it is pleasant.

Then the results of these measurements, that is, the results of thoughts, suddenly give you a further thought: This is a rose, so you recognize it.

The process of mobilizing human consciousness is actually measured by moving thoughts, and then thoughts are generated.At this time, the idea is generated, which is actually a few concepts that we have created through measurement.

At this moment consciousness is no longer free, it suddenly collapses onto a concept "rose".Therefore, it is thoughts that produce "objectivity", thoughts are measurements, and the objective world is created by a series of complex thoughts.

Going a step further, the Shurangama Sutra says, "The awakening of one's nature must be clear, and false awareness is false; the original awareness is brilliant, and awareness is the fault." What does it mean?

The creation of the entire material world, in fact, at the beginning of the formation of consciousness, the universe itself is originally pure and natural. Once you have a thought and want to see it, this thought is a kind of measurement, which immediately makes this "pure and natural" Become a definite state, and thus become the material world.

The Shurangama Sutra is the earliest and clearest statement of the relationship between consciousness and measurement. "

"what?"

Xia Zhi was taken aback for a moment, seeing a Western foreigner quoting the Shurangama Sutra, which made him feel a little dazed.

Unexpectedly, Robert would also study Buddhism.

Considering that he went to the doctor in a hurry, it was understandable.

The full name of the "Surangama Sutra" is "The Surangama Sutra, the Secret Cause of the Tathagata on the Top of the Great Buddha, the First of All Bodhisattvas to Practice and Realize the Righteousness," and it is an extremely important classic of Buddhism.

Anyway, Xia Zhi didn't understand.

I have only heard of things related to Buddhism such as Namo Amitabha, the Diamond Sutra, and the Great Compassionate Hand.

Xia Zhi couldn't listen to what Robert said later.

It probably means that when he cultivates an artificial intelligence that perfectly fits his baseline, his physical consciousness will be destroyed, and the artificial intelligence in the machine will become him.

In other words, there can only be one consciousness of him in this world.

Xia Zhi waited for Robert to finish speaking, and asked:
"Then, what's going on with this stone house?"

Robert explained:
"This stone house is an embedded program, and only people with specific permissions can see it. The normal game plot is the murder case."

Xia Zhi nodded and asked again:

"Why does the stone house explode every once in a while?"

Robert laughed:
"I set up a program. If the evolution of artificial intelligence deviates from the baseline, it will trigger the destruction program, which is an explosion."

Xia Zhi didn't quite understand:

"Self-destruct is self-destruct, clearing this program is just clearing that Robert, isn't it enough?"

While talking, Xia Zhi pointed to Robert who was standing next to him.

Robert patted the sofa under his buttocks and said:
"When the artificial intelligence source code deviates from the evolutionary baseline, the surrounding codes must be cleared, and together they form the sum of the remainder of a formula."

Xia Zhi was taken aback:
"Formula? Sum of remainders?"

Robert explained patiently again:
"In my algorithm, everyone's thought is a formula, which is the ultimate baseline for the evolution of artificial intelligence. If the formula can be used to perfectly handle all thinking decisions, it can trigger the final quantum collapse.

However, the evolution of this formula requires time accumulation and data feeding. In the process, errors will inevitably occur, that is, the 'remainder' of this formula. I will collect the remainder, and then, boom!
All blown up. "

Xia Zhi said oh, thinking that Robert is quite interesting.

He's not an idle programmer.

It can be seen from his creation of Incite, an artificial intelligence company worth tens of billions, that he has made achievements in the field of artificial intelligence.

However, Xia Zhi felt that Robert's theory was a bit vague.

It is better for him to follow the tasks given by the system step by step.

However, according to Xia Zhi's guess, even if the system gave the source code of artificial intelligence, it would be different from the artificial intelligence that Robert was pursuing.

The artificial intelligence of the electronic age he is using now is only close to the human learning ability, so that the program can learn some experience from the data, and then apply it to the task.

For example, workers who replace some basic jobs.

It is not to complete the uploading of human consciousness, or to create a new life, this kind of mysterious and mysterious idea.

After chatting with Robert for a while, Xia Zhi no longer pursued him for privately opening a channel for cultivating artificial intelligence on the platform.

Xia Zhi exited the game, and saw his secretary Xiao Mo come in with a file.

He glanced at the time, smiled and said:

"Haven't you returned yet?"

Xiao Mo laughed and said:

"Mr. Xia, if you haven't gone back, I won't go back."

Xia Zhi said with emotion:

"In the beginning, Qi Siyue worked as hard as you did. In fact, there's no need. It's fine for you to stay here."

Xiao Mo put the documents in his hand on the table and said with a smile:

"Look, isn't this a problem?"

Xia Zhi smiled and shook his head:
"It's too late today, save it for tomorrow, go back."

With that said, Xia Zhi stood up by himself.

Xiao Mo also hurriedly put away his things and went downstairs with Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi asked Xiao Mo:
"How did you go back at night?"

Xiao Mo smiled and said:

"I will drive."

Xia Zhi thought for a while and said:

"It's too late, it's not safe, I'll drive you back."

Xiao Mo quickly shook his head:

"No, no, how can you trouble Boss Xia to take me back?"

Xia Zhi and Xiao Mo got out of the elevator. Xia Zhi pointed to the car with its lights on not far away:
"It's not that I drive, there is a driver, it's just a detour."

Xiao Mo nodded obediently:

"Okay, thank you Mr. Xia."

Xia Zhi muttered:

"When the smart city here in Jinling is built, the aircraft can be arranged, and it will be much more convenient then."

Xiao Mo said:

"It's coming soon. I remember that the construction period was said to be early next year."

Xia Zhi nodded.

The two got into the car together, Xia Zhi said to the driver Pan Dong:
"Send Xiao Mo back first, she lives in the famous mansion of Surin in the east of the city."

Pan Dong responded briefly:

"it is good."

Xiao Mo and Xia Zhi sat in the back seat together, Xiao Mo smiled at Pan Dong:
"Thank you, Uncle Pan."

Pan Dong is still succinct:

"Need not."

Ren Feizhou, the co-pilot, looked at Xiao Mo from the rearview mirror of the car, and then saw Xia Zhi looking out of the window, distracted, and couldn't help saying:

"Xiao Mo, this is the first time Mr. Xia has personally sent employees home."

Xiao Mo was flattered, she looked at Xia Zhi and didn't know what to say, so she could only thank Xia Zhi for taking her home again.

Xia Zhi waved his hand:
"It's okay, it's not too far anyway."

Saying that, Xia Zhi closed his eyes and leaned against the back seat to take a rest.

Ren Feizhou shut his mouth wisely, not daring to disturb Xia Zhi's rest.

Xiao Mo dared to ask Xia Zhi:

"Mr. Xia, how about I relax your head?"

Xia Zhi opened his eyes:
"Ok?"

Xiao Mo sat back, patted his slender legs, and said:

"Lie down with your head on my lap, and I'll give you a pinch."

Xia Zhi frowned, feeling that this was inconvenient.

But seeing Xiao Mo's eager eyes, Xia Zhi glanced at Ren Feizhou who was watching the fun ahead, thinking that if he rejected Xiao Mo, it would make Xiao Mo feel embarrassed.

Then he reluctantly found a comfortable position and rested his head on Xiao Mo's lap.

"It's delicious."

He smelled the fragrance of Xiao Mo's body at a close distance, which was completely different from that of his ex-girlfriend Chu Yuqi.

It is estimated that the two of them use different brands of perfume.

Xiao Mo stretched out his hand, inserted his fingers into Xia Zhi's hair, pressed it on his scalp, and massaged gently.

Xia Zhi closed her eyes comfortably, and the corners of her mouth raised involuntarily.

Pan Zi, who was driving in front, slowed down slightly under the signal from Ren Feizhou's eyes.

Arriving at Xiao Mo's community, Pan Dong stopped the car and reminded him:
"arrive."

Xia Zhi opened his eyes and asked drowsily:
"It's here, Xiao Mo, let's go up."

While talking, she was about to sit up, but Xiao Mo held her head down.

Xiao Mo said:
"It's not over yet, the cycle of all the acupuncture points on the head is not over yet."

"what?"

Ren Feizhou turned his head and said with a smile:
"Go upstairs and press it? You can't stretch it even if you lie down in this car."

Xia Zhi scolded Ren Feizhou:

"You old and unscrupulous, if you talk nonsense again, I will let you take a taxi back."

It was nothing at first, but when Xia Zhi said this, Xiao Mo's face became hot.

She hastened to press the last few acupuncture points, then opened the car door with her bag in her hand, and finally said:
"Thank you Mr. Xia, thank you Uncle Pan." Turning around, he ran to the community.

I had just run two steps, when I remembered something, I turned around and shouted again:
"Thank you, Uncle Ren."

Ren Feizhou shook his head helplessly:
"This child."

Xia Zhi scolded again:
"You also know that he's just a child, aren't you ashamed to be pornographic?"

Ren Feizhou laughed and said:
"I see that Xiao Mo has this idea for you, and besides, haven't you been single for a long time? Ever since you broke up with Xiao Chu"

Xia Zhi interrupted Ren Feizhou angrily:
"I'm not considering finding a girlfriend for now." Then he looked at Pan Dong:
"Pan Zi, go home."

"Okay." Pan Dong drove onto the main road.

At night, Xia Zhi was lying on the bed, unable to fall asleep for a while, tossing and turning, and couldn't help thinking about the charming scenery in the car just now.

It seemed that Xiao Mo could still smell the fragrance in his nose.

"This little Mo smells really good."

The next day, Xia Zhi came to the company and saw Xiao Mo smiling and nodding in greeting.

Xiao Mo came up to him with a cup of coffee in his hand, and asked:
"Mr. Xia, did you sleep well last night?"

Xia Zhi was stunned.

Xiao Mo explained:

"After pressing the head, the nerves are relaxed, which is good for sleep."

Xia Zhi laughed dryly:
"Very good, slept soundly."

Xiao Mo laughed and said:

"That's good."

In the afternoon, the floating capsule mentioned at yesterday's meeting was delivered.

Xia Zhi just had time to experience the floating cabin, and he asked the staff to connect the VR helmet into the floating cabin.

He plans to manually integrate the VR device with the floating pod.

After a while of fiddling, the staff finally stuffed the VR device into the floating cabin according to Xia Zhi's request, and tested it to work well.

Xia Zhi took off his clothes, only wearing a pair of underpants, and sat in the floating cabin.

The special liquid in the floating cabin is very mild, allowing Xia Zhi to float on it.

Xia Zhi stretched out his hand to grab it, and said to himself:

"Something like snot, bouncy."

Xiao Mo next to him couldn't help laughing.

Xia Zhi took the VR device from Xiao Mo, put it on, and then lay down in the floating cabin.

The hatch of the floating cabin was closed, and Xia Zhi also activated the VR equipment.

He got into the game comfortably.

This is the first time he played the game so comfortably. For a moment, he felt that he had achieved the effect that the advertiser said:
Returned to mother's body.

He couldn't help thinking:
If the problem of eating and excreting can be solved, then lying here all the time is not a problem.

This is the real dead house.

"Hi, I met you again." A voice pulled Xia Zhi back from his thoughts.

It's game friend Alice.
