Chapter 2088 Machine Contradictions Stubborn Thinking

"I will not be grateful to him because the tool has played the role it should have played. He is just a tool."

Faced with Alexia's questions, the boss once again declared his own point of view. Of course, he also knew that it was not appropriate to say this, especially from the standpoint of human beings, there was some suspicion of ungratefulness. So he immediately raised his other theory and refuted it to Alexia.

"It's not that I don't know how to be grateful, ma'am. But you have to know what kind of existence is behind that terrible machine. A computer? Or a computer with its own thinking, I really don't understand why the government has such a big heart to let such a guy appear in front of everyone in a panic. Don't they know what threat is?"

"That is intelligent life, sir. It is a miracle brewed by modern technology!"

"I don't know what a miracle is. I only know that when the atom bomb comes out, people also call it a miracle. But now, it even harms our own people more than it does to our enemies!"

He increased his voice, as if doing so would make him more verbally overwhelming. The boss continued his own opinion.

"Before even your own problems were completely solved, we stepped into the realm of God without authorization. The result of this is that we will inevitably create an uncontrollable existence. Look at the power that the guy showed, is that something that man can do? He is learning and surpassing humans, surpassing his creator, and want to be on par with God. And under the premise that he has taken us a big step ahead, who can guarantee that he will serve us as always, as we serve God. Instead of kicking us out and replacing us with one kick."

This kind of panic thought was not beyond Alexia's expectations. She knew very well that in the minds of most conservatives, there was probably a similar idea.

There is nothing strange about this. Because science has never been a concept for such people. They never take the initiative to understand the limits of science, and everything that exceeds their cognitive scope will be rejected by them. For example, Ultron, I am afraid that their only impression is the classic science fiction movie more than 20 years ago. It is probably unrealistic to get rid of this and make some fair evaluations of Ultron.

As Alexia expected, the boss soon started talking about the old joke.

"I don't know if you've ever watched an old movie, and you probably don't have much impression of it in your grade. If you've seen that, you'll know what I do. Because it has revealed what a computer that is beyond our control will do. He will control everything in this world, and then annihilate all human beings in a planned way, trying to replace us with the things he created and become the masters of this world. Don't believe that young people, everything is similar."

"First, the robots that made the big men proud, they thought it was their achievements, but who knew if this was the conspiracy of the computer. Then, let these robots replace our police and army, so as to deprive us of all our resistance. In the end, maybe he stood directly on the TV and announced his rule over all of us and the fact that humans became their slaves. If this happened tomorrow, I would not be surprised at all."

"That's just a movie, sir. Reality won't develop like it is in a movie, especially that development has no logic."

Alexia made appropriate rebuttals, but this rebuttal seemed to stimulate the boss's nerves, making him immediately blow his beard and stare.

"What does it mean to be illogical? Is movies necessarily illogical? You highly educated people just like to be self-righteous. Let me tell you, I have experienced many things in my life, and in your opinion, these things are the same as what happened in the movie."

"Have you seen a few people chasing dozens of people across the street with just four guns? Have you seen someone who can burn a tank into scrap iron with a bottle? No, you have never seen it, just think about it according to your ridiculous scientific logic. You will not believe it at all and regard it as delusions. But, these are all things that happened before me, and I have experienced it myself. How can you say these?"

It seems that he had received some unfair treatment when he was young. When it comes to science and logic issues, the boss was a bit of a use of the topic. Of course, his use of the topic did not interfere with Alexia's judgment. She could clearly identify the more or less suspicion of changing concepts in the nonsense he said.

This is a show of the game. Many people think that those who do scientific research must be dull and clumsy in their words. In fact, this is a simple prejudice, and the spiritual God is the self-comfort for you to close the door and open the window. You should know that science is the most logical science, and the basis of speaking is also logic. You expect a group of problems that can use formulas and calculations to solve complex problems that you can't even understand a symbol will lose to you in language logic. This is not easier than the disabled people who want to jump high and long jump compared to the world champion.

Most of the time they act dull and unwilling to speak, but simply don't like to communicate with ordinary people. Just like ordinary people don't like to communicate with mental retarded people, in their eyes, ordinary people are probably similar to mental retarded people. If you remove this prejudice and give them a fearless temper, basically, any professional scientist can transform into Tony Stark, and you can't even recognize your own mother at any time.

As one of them, Alexia can certainly detect the loopholes and ridiculousness of his logic. And she, who wants to find out the intentions of these people, could not smile at it like ordinary people and give the boss enough face. She is here to pick on it. For this reason, she also acted unceremoniously with an arrogant but not arrogant attitude, just like you are a student sitting in the audience and a teacher standing on the stage, saying to the boss like this.

"Sir, I don't understand what you have encountered, which makes you have such prejudice against science. But what I want to tell you is that you cannot deny science completely just because of a little bit of your own experience. The reason why this discipline has become the foundation of the entire human society is because it has irreversible truths. And on Ultron and the robots he created, are the things you are worried about, and there is no logic to support it."

"If Ultron and those smart machines are regarded as one species, their required ecological environment has no intersection with humans at all. The movie considers the relationship between the two based on the law of species competition, which is actually incorrect. Because fundamentally, there is no competitive relationship between the two."

"All natural substances, air, water, food, and even all social substances, money, and entertainment that humans need are not consumables necessary for machine life. They have nothing to do with this, and they are even the producers of these substances, not consumers. Apart from energy, energy, under the premise that humans have developed nearly infinite nuclear fusion energy, it is impossible to have the possibility of energy as a contradiction and conflict."

"Even if humans kill each other, they will lead to the demise of races, they are more likely to be destroyed by intelligent lives like Ultron. Because humans still have some survival and racial contradictions, it will not be strange if these contradictions are brewing to a level. But machines, machines and us cannot even exist, so how can they become the culprits of destruction?"

"It's just your own opinion, ma'am."

Standing in front of such a concise and unrefutable statement, the boss felt that the words he used to brag and complain in the past were really not confrontational. However, if he wanted to admit that what the other party said was right, his thoughts were just a worry-free thing, which was impossible.

This not only subverted his remarks, but also subverted his life. You know, he has survived with this attitude of questioning science for half his life. If he becomes a fan of science, it would not be easier than killing him.

Of course he refused to surrender, and in order to be able to stand his position, he did his best to come up with all the examples he could think of to refute this view.

"You say there is no conflict between humans and machines, so why do so many workers lose their jobs because factories use machines and become unemployed people who can only wander on the streets?"

"You got the wrong object, sir. This is not a contradiction between man and machine, it is a contradiction between workers and capitalists. In the eyes of capitalists, workers' demand is higher than the demand of machines, and workers' output is lower than the output of machines. Of course, they will choose machines. Even if you sit in that position, you will choose this way. Because this is optimized and the most profitable. The machine only acts as an instrumental role in the middle. It does not actively compete with you for anything, but the contradiction between you and the capitalists makes them make choices."

"Society has always developed like this. Just like when wool workers were replaced by textile machines, a more advanced production method is destined to cause some people to be unemployed, but at the same time, it will also provide an additional part of employment opportunities. It depends on whether you can seize the opportunity."

"But after all, aren't our work still being seized by those machines?"

The boss has heard of this kind of long-term theory more than once, and just like before, he chose to ignore those straightforward principles and firmly grasp the core of the contradiction.

"I don't care about the social development or not. I only know that there are a group of men who should have jobs who have lost their jobs because of those machines, their children are hungry, and their wives are wiping their tears. They have the strength and skills but have no place to use them at all. This is why I don't like machines."

"I probably understand what you mean by saying that. You think that the prevalence of machines will lead to an increase in human unemployment, which will lead to a series of social problems in disguise, right?"

Is that what I think? The boss was confused for a moment. He dared to swear in the name of his dead father. He really didn't think so much, but in front of a woman like Alexia, he was really embarrassed to say that he was shallow. So he could only bite the bullet and nodded.

"Yes, I just can't accept such things. Why do we ordinary people pay for the so-called social development? But is social development necessarily based on the sacrifices of us ordinary people?"

"Well, if you say that, then make a choice, sir."

Alexia didn't agree with this question. She just changed the subject and started to say that.

"Two choices, first, you are willing to be a working class and work in the factory all your life. The material you get can only satisfy the food and clothing of the whole family, so that you can barely support your child to go to community college, and then let him take over your class and continue to be a worker? Or do you want to change the way, that is, you do whatever you want, and you can get a considerable salary no matter what job you do, and at the same time, social welfare can also achieve the kind of way that makes you not even work, and you can live a comfortable and comfortable life, and have everything you need?"

"This is impossible?"

When the boss heard this, he shook his head. The welfare benefits in Europe are already the best on earth. But even the best among them cannot be said to be able to support such benefits. This is not reality, it is simply a dream.

"I mean, if!"

"Then of course I will choose the second one, I'm not a fool."

No matter what kind of race, the demands are the same. That is, who can stand, who wants to make money on his knees or lie down, who will think about work? It is all due to reality and helplessness. For almost all normal people, they want to live a life that can satisfy their needs by doing nothing. But this is just impossible.

Of course, this kind of impossible is not necessarily impossible, at least in Alexia's view.

"If you really want to choose the second type, then you should not reject machines like Ultron. Because you have to be clear that their appearance means a leap in productivity, and only when productivity leaps to a certain level can the second possibility that I have described will appear."

"Machines have no demand, everything they create is provided for human beings. And one day, when the material they create exceeds the overall demand of human society, then the day I describe will become a reality. Is this day far away? From the perspective of the development of modern technology, it is actually not far away, as long as no one makes obstacles."

As she said this, she began to look at the boss's expression. As she expected, the boss also showed a fascinating expression for a moment. But soon, he shook his head and became stubborn again.

"Sorry, I still don't believe it. I don't think anyone in this world can be so kind. Humans will not be like this, let alone a machine. Instead of making me believe that everything he did for such a purpose, I would rather believe that in the movie, everything he did was a conspiracy."

"Yes, this should have been a conspiracy. Those governments may have been controlled. Otherwise, how could they be so indulgent? Damn it, a bunch of shit"

Take out the bottle from under the counter and pour yourself a full glass of strong wine. While the boss drank it all, he also began to end such words with some murmurs that no one could hear clearly.

And this means the end of the topic, but Alexia has already got the answer she wants.

She has seen clearly that ridiculous nature of human beings
