Reborn Technology Upstart

Chapter 459 One Thoughts on Future Scientific Development

In order to be able to complete the task within the scheduled time, Ye Zishu not only used the morning time, but also extended the evening working hours to 1 am.

If he doesn't think there are too many things to learn, if the time for learning is compressed, the progress of learning will be greatly affected.

The study of medical and biological knowledge is very important to him, not to mention that there are so many prescriptions waiting for him to develop, many of which have ready-made technical materials.

As far as future technological upgrades are concerned, biology must be involved in the field. Learn more knowledge now, and when facing problems in the future, you will have an additional way of thinking about solving problems.

So now he compresses the learning time of mathematics and advanced software technology, although these are equally important to him, they are not so urgent.

The artificial intelligence technology that is now available is sufficient for most scenarios, and it is already far ahead of the existing software technology, so there is no need to upgrade it again.

Even if a more advanced artificial intelligence has been developed now, there is a high probability that he will use it himself, because this level of artificial intelligence already has a real IQ, rather than being simulated like it is now.

There is an essential difference between artificial intelligence with real IQ and simulated artificial intelligence. Although both are still in the category of tools and have not yet broken through the forbidden area of ​​life, they are still considered a huge leap.

It is common for artificial intelligence with IQ to be smarter than humans as long as the computing power is sufficient. At that time, most of the work can be handed over to artificial intelligence without his own participation.

Even when the artificial intelligence has accumulated enough knowledge, it can conduct scientific exploration and research and development on its own. This ability is also the reason why Ye Zishu has always wanted to develop a more advanced artificial intelligence.

Regardless of the fact that there are many human beings on the earth, and there are too many scientific and technological workers, but if we really want to achieve the rapid development of civilization, we do not know how many years it will take to achieve a qualitative breakthrough by relying on human beings alone.

Except for the last scientific explosion in history, the development speed of the current scientific field is getting slower and slower, and the difficulty of research and development is getting higher and higher. It seems that human intelligence can no longer keep up with the needs of scientific development.

People like Ye Zishu sometimes clearly feel that when manpower is limited, if they want to break through the limit, let human science develop further, and enter a new period of prosperity, they must achieve technological breakthroughs.

If we really rely on the evolution of human beings, one day we will hit the ceiling. The evolution of human beings is too slow, especially the evolution of IQ, which can be ignored for tens of thousands of years.

And he thinks that the ceiling problem can be solved from two aspects,

The first is to use more advanced tools to extend and amplify human capabilities.

And his goal is to put more advanced artificial intelligence, through the explosion of machine computing power, to break the inherent limitations of human beings, and to achieve breakthroughs in human society and technology.

Although this seems a bit crooked, he believes that this is the safest way. As long as the artificial intelligence is not a real life, there is not much danger.

Of course, it is also very important who owns such artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence is right and wrong, and it depends entirely on the person who controls artificial intelligence. This is the only danger.

The second is to start from the human body itself, through biological and genetic technology, to make a leap in the level of human life, so as to make a breakthrough in the improvement of human IQ.

However, he believes that this method is very dangerous. If it is not fully grasped, it is best to use it with caution. Once a change is discovered, it will bring catastrophic consequences.

Some people will say that it can be used in a small area first to narrow the dangerous area. It seems that there is no problem in doing so, but in fact the problem is even bigger.

Human beings are a complex contradictory body, and it is difficult to completely control them. If unreformed people control these people, they may not be able to control them, because IQ and physical fitness are not on the same level.

It's like humans playing with ants. If humans want to play with ants, they don't need to spend much thought at all. The two are completely unequal.

If the transformed human beings manage themselves, it is inevitable that there will be racial discrimination. Now that there is not much difference between human beings, various elite theories have appeared, and some people even openly declared that ordinary people are a waste of food.

If there is a difference in the nature of life, he doesn't quite believe that these transformed people will treat ordinary people kindly, and there is a high probability that they will enslave ordinary humans, and he even thinks that these people have no need to exist at all.

Just thinking about it, you can feel how terrifying this is, and this is something Ye Shu absolutely doesn't want to see. Because of this, it's not as good as everyone else.

If everyone is transformed, once the technology is flawed, the group may be wiped out, just like human beings face natural disasters.

The reason why human beings are different, even at the genetic level, is to avoid being wiped out by natural groups, so that the human fire can be preserved.

Just like the relationship between humans and viruses, humans will always face the threat of viruses, but there has never been a virus that can destroy the entire human race.

It is because individuals are different among human beings, and no virus can be harmful to everyone, which will make some humans ignore the threat of this virus.

This is why parthenogenesis is rare in multicellular animals, because the variability of parthenogenesis is poor and diversity cannot be guaranteed.

The main threat to multicellular animals is from microorganisms such as viruses and bacteria, which are generally difficult to deal with, and the survival rate of the population can only be guaranteed through the diversity of individual organisms.

Only the hand of nature is ingenious. No matter how ingenious the artificial hand is, there may be flaws. If it is only an individual flaw, it is fine. If it is a collective flaw, everyone will be finished.

In fact, he has found technologies to transform the human body, such as in vivo biochip technology, which can allow humans to have super computing power like a computer, directly breaking through the limits of the human brain.

The human brain itself has superpowers, but the functions of the human brain are diverse. It is not just focused on computing, but more like the CPU in a computer, which requires too much busy work.

On the contrary, it is not as specialized as the GPU in computing, and the biological chip in the body is like a GPU, which can focus on computing and storage, which can greatly expand human capabilities.

It's just that even if he had such a ready-made technology, he didn't dare to use it casually, because he couldn't afford the consequences, no matter whether he succeeded or failed, the impact would be too great.

Among these two methods, he prefers the first one, which is to use artificial intelligence technology with powerful computer technology, and use tools to achieve heights that humans cannot achieve by themselves.

As long as this road does not touch the ceiling, it is not a bad idea to keep going along this road, and this road is clear, and the technological explosion brought about can also promote the development of the second route.

No matter from which point of view, the first path is the priority to take. If the second path is preferred, the danger and feasibility are open to question.

Ye Zishu is now keen to study medicine and biology, not to improve the ability of human beings, but to achieve technological breakthroughs.

At present, many of his high-tech technologies are realized through mechanical, chemical and physical technologies. Even if he has optimized them, the process is very cumbersome.

For example, the production of solar power generation materials requires very difficult monomolecular thin film manufacturing technology. The technology he developed is already the pinnacle technology for human manipulation of molecular structure materials.

Taking graphene material as an example, it was so difficult to make graphene in previous lives, and many of them were only extracted from graphite, which already has a graphene structure, so the difficulty was so high.

However, solar power generation materials are completely artificially synthesized single-molecule structure materials, which are much more difficult than large-scale production of graphene, not to mention the need for large-scale production in sheets, which further increases the difficulty.

This is not the most rare thing. The single-molecular structure material needs to be stacked with other single-molecular structure materials, and it is not an ordinary stack, and a certain angle must be formed.

In this way, light can be irradiated on the surface of this material, and the energy of photons can be absorbed as much as possible, so that electrons can break away from the shackles of the monomolecular film and move to the direction of the underlying monomolecular film in an orderly manner.

This process will continuously generate a potential difference, allowing electrons to finally reach the collecting film to collect electrical energy, which is why this material has such a high solar power generation efficiency.

In fact, room temperature superconducting materials are also high-precision materials, not like ordinary chemical materials, as long as the chemical formula is correct, they will show characteristics.

Leaf Book collectively refers to this kind of material as structural material, but this kind of structure is presented at the microscopic level, which is difficult to control with ordinary technology and requires advanced technology to achieve it.

It is precisely because the production of these materials is very difficult, and he is not worried that others will imitate them when they are taken out openly. Not to mention whether they can be imitated, even if they can be imitated, the cost is unbearable for them.

This is already the pinnacle of materials science that can be achieved under the current technical conditions. If you want to go further and realize the production of more complex structural materials, you can only start to turn to the microbial production mode.

Especially for materials with irregular structures, using the current production model, the cost is also very high, and it is not universal, even he dare not try it lightly.

The micro-structural materials he presents are all regular structural materials, that is to say, they have the characteristics of structural aesthetics, such as symmetry and mathematical regularity.

The production of this kind of material is relatively simple. From a macro perspective, the production has certain rules to follow, and the cost can still be within the acceptable range.

The production of non-regular structural materials may become impossible from a macro perspective. The only way is to use the characteristics of microorganisms to produce such materials, because they are in the same dimension.

It's like human beings who study high-dimensions will never understand it. If they want to understand it, they can only jump to high latitudes by themselves. On the contrary, it is difficult for human beings to study the world of low latitudes.

Only by standing at the level of the same latitude, can the problem of the same latitude be studied clearly. Other methods are just looking at the flowers in the fog, and it is difficult to see the whole picture, which belongs to the blind man.

Of course, this is just his personal opinion. No one can predict the extent to which technology can develop in the future, but reaching that height cannot be achieved in one step.

Various improvements are necessary in the middle, and many intermediate technologies are born, and the tools are improved step by step to meet the conditions for analyzing problems at different dimensions.
