Ever since the "brain chip technology" was obtained from the alien black hands, people have begun difficult research on the brain. Especially in the next four hundred years, almost overwhelming power was exerted, and because of a series of
By coincidence, I reluctantly completed it.
Assisted brain technology integrates the crystallization of countless wisdoms! Many of them are contrary to common sense, and even blindly guessed without any basis, but they have been miraculously verified.
If there were not all kinds of accidental epiphanies, if there were not flashes of inspiration one after another; or if there were not brain chip technology and the "National Superhuman Project", which greatly improved people's intelligence...
Anyway, as long as any one of these conditions is missing, this technology will be impossible to complete.
Recalling the dark past and unable to see the fumbling ahead, everyone felt sad.
Fortunately, this period of time has finally passed.
"I think these silicon-based transformers certainly belong to the new human citizens." Soon, a male professor took the lead in putting forward his idea. He played a video on the big screen and gave the first
evidence.
"According to social experiments on Ge Yingsa people, this kind of auxiliary brain will not change a person's personality for the time being, nor will it destroy social stability. We don't need to worry about these problems."
"Look..."
What was played on the video was the seventeen-year follow-up investigation of a Ge Yingsa man by New Humanity.
This guy named Li Ran is essentially a lazy guy who doesn't like to study. He likes to show off and pick up girls...
Since he had a car accident and was very lucky to be transformed by a new human being, he began to rely on his super high IQ to rise to great heights.
Any knowledge of low-level civilization has become very simple to him.
But essentially, he still doesn't like studying.
Since becoming a university professor, he has only allocated a very small part of his energy to scientific research work. The rest of his time has been indulged in showing off and picking up girls, especially his own female students, for which he was also reported
There was a series of scandals!
Of course, with Li Ran's status on this planet, no one will do anything to him... Some criticisms from the media are irrelevant to him. This guy with bad morals cannot survive on his own planet.
The land is very nice.
"...According to this series of observations, the acceleration of thinking speed will not affect the personality and essence. This Li Ran is not even willing to think about why he suddenly became smart and where did the system in his head come from.
Wait for the question."
"He just wants to live happily..."
This video is very convincing.
Everyone was thinking quietly in their seats: Even if the auxiliary brain is installed, the person is still the same person.
The professor came to the final conclusion: "So, installing an auxiliary brain will not significantly change the personality and character. There is no doubt that there are not many ethical issues. I think this technology is beneficial to us.
It’s harmless. And after so many years of research, the success rate of the surgery is almost over 99%.”
"We have rescued all examples like Zhang Ruien...so it has reached a level where it can be popularized."
"As for the identity and status of the silicon-based transformers... there is nothing to worry about. After the silicon-based transformation, they will become a more advanced species than the new humans. They are smarter and more creative. Of course, they still belong to the new humans.
citizen."
After the professor finished speaking his point of view, he sat down quietly. Soon, someone else pressed the talk button.
Yu Yifeng called his name: "No. 114, please speak."
She was a middle-aged lady. She stood up and asked in a slightly questioning tone: "I have a question: using such technology, almost every cell in the brain has been transformed. The depth of such transformation is not
Something as simple as a brain chip can be compared."
"I wonder if the original personality has died? For example, this Li Ran, when he accepted the transformation, his personal will was erased and replaced by a personality with the same memory?"
"We don't know these problems, and we can get real conclusions. If it is as I guess... this technology is simply murder for us!
"'I' was already dead at that time. The next me with the same memory, no matter how smart or powerful I am, what does it have to do with the current me?"
"Everyone, are you afraid of 'me' disappearing?"
This paragraph sounds a bit like a tongue twister, but in fact everyone understands it. This also brings an inexplicable feeling of discomfort.
The conference room buzzed with excitement.
"This is indeed something that cannot be confirmed by experiments." Yu Yifeng thought to himself.
Because all surgeries are done in a state of blurred consciousness... No one knows whether the original personality has truly died. Whether a new personality was formed afterwards due to the symbiosis of the auxiliary brain with the original brain.
This new personality seems to have all the same memories as the original personality, making it difficult to distinguish between true and false.
Because for now, the reason for the formation of human self-awareness is still a black box. People can already read the brain's thinking, but there is no way to figure out how this thinking came into being at the first moment, and there is no way to create something out of nothing.
Self-awareness. Therefore, the auxiliary brain must still be based on the biological brain and cannot operate alone.
After a while, someone else stood up and said, "Everyone, why do we care about this? Isn't this kind of question too worrying and confusing?"
The speaker was Professor Nakatamura. As one of the main people in charge of the auxiliary brain, he was a little angry at these inexplicable questions: "Human life is like running water, always changing. Every minute, every day
It’s updating every second.”
"If you explore the nature of self-awareness, you can't see clearly or touch it. I think that since there is no way to explore it clearly, you don't need to care too much."
"Let me give you an example... Can you be sure that you will be the same person after you wake up as you were before going to bed?"
"Perhaps, every time you sleep, the previous you will die, and when you wake up, you will be a new you. It's just that when you wake up, you have no memory of when you died, so you think you are still the same you."
"But who knows? Maybe you were already dead when you were sleeping... Madam, can you confirm that my guess is wrong? Yes, it cannot be..."
"If my conjecture is true, you have died tens of thousands of times, do you still care about this time?"
Professor Nakatamura's words suddenly aroused more discussions. Many people thought his words were strange. It was a bit sensational that every time he slept, an original "I" would die.
But no one can refute it.
Does this possibility exist? Of course it does, and the probability is not small.
"Does every 'I' only have a lifespan of more than ten hours? Every sleep is the birth of a new life?"
"In fact, usually, we think that as long as the brain is alive, I will still be me..."
This has actually evolved into a complex philosophical question: Who am I? What is the real me?
Yu Yifeng touched his chin and thought carefully. He immediately felt that as long as the existence of self-awareness is continuous and there is no interruption in the middle, he can think that he is still himself.
However, how to prove its continuity is still a cosmic problem, and there is not even a specific definition.
As Professor Nakatamura said, is there any interruption in human consciousness when sleeping? No one can know. Regarding the fact that brain waves are naturally continuous, it is unknown how self-awareness is.
"Even time has a minimum Planck time, and human self-awareness is most likely discrete... In other words, self-awareness will be interrupted for a while."
Hearing everyone's discussion, Professor Nakatamura paused for a while and then said: "So, there is nothing to argue about the issue of self-awareness. We have already discussed it when we invented the brain chip and when everyone used perfect hormones.
pass."
"...Assisted brain technology, although the brain cells are completely transformed, when the transformation is carried out, the entire human brain remains active and has not died. Therefore, for the time being, it can be considered that...I am still me."
