As the only remaining technology leader in the United States, Musk is by no means a mediocre person. Moreover, as a shrewd engineer, entrepreneur, and capitalist... this man also has an absolutely keen sense of smell and is extremely courageous. When gathering
After Intelligent Technology launched long-distance communication, SpaceX's Ares directly chose the long-distance communication module, and then abandoned the Starlink project as proof.
Tesla was also one of the first large-scale manufacturing companies to choose to embrace ETA, and now it is the kind that wins the banner in the Shanghai Stock Exchange every year.
Shortly afterwards, Tesla also completely stopped the research and development of quantum computers and strong AI, and instead focused on the path of brain-computer interconnection.
As the director of the Brain-Computer Center, Ye Ming certainly knows that in the current field of brain-computer interconnection, apart from the Brain-Computer Center... I am afraid that only Musk's side is making the fastest progress.
Even in Mogu's words, Musk's path is quite wild...
But no one knows how it will progress.
Ye Ming's eyebrows wrinkled instantly, and then he stared at Musk.
The latter also looked at him.
After a few seconds, Ye Ming exhaled slowly.
"I don't think humans can embark on, and will take, the path of digital life."
Musk immediately said: "Why? Technology? Or ethics?"
"Although there are too many digital lives in science fiction works, they generally lack a real logic and foundation - thinking can be converted into electromagnetic waves, but not the other way around."
"Even if we find similar neural signal collection and processing devices in the battleships and ruins of Blue Star, and seem to be able to completely decipher the thoughts and signals of the human brain... but it still doesn't work."
Musk's eyebrows also wrinkled: "Quantum computers can't do it either?"
"How does digital consciousness arise? Does it rely on memory to store signals? If quantum computers can work, then strong artificial intelligence like Aita can evolve into digital life."
At this time, Yang Chaoxiong, who had been listening to the conversation between the two, suddenly asked: "What about Yin Ta?"
Ye Ming glanced at Yang Chaoxiong.
Good guy...this senior brother really doesn't care about anything.
"Yinta is an artificial intelligence that I personally trained. She exists based on Aita's logic, but her emotional expression is different." Ye Ming said solemnly: "And... Even if you take a step back and say, yes, have you considered it?
, does that still meet the definition of human beings?”
"It doesn't meet, but it meets the definition of life." Musk looked at Ye Ming and said solemnly: "I even think that it can be defined as life in another dimension."
Hearing this, Ye Ming was suddenly startled, and then fell into silent thinking.
Everyone looked at him, and Musk looked eager.
A minute later, Ye Ming raised his head: "High-dimensional life cannot adapt to the low-dimensional universe, and the form of life must be changed."
Musk was also startled: "What?"
"What you just said is that digital life can be defined as life in another dimension. This is right - human beings obviously cannot adapt to two-dimensional space, but we can expand three-dimensional matter in two dimensions, including circuits. If the three-dimensional universe collapses
If human beings want to continue their lives, or 'self-awareness', perhaps they can only enter the two-dimensional space and then become digital."
At this time, Professor Tang pondered for a few seconds and said: "I don't quite understand the dimensional universe theory - has the current mainstream dimensional universe abandoned the 11-dimensional space of superstring theory?"
"Yes, superstring theory is a purely geometric space. At present, we have completed observations in four-dimensional space, and the results are not completely consistent with superstring theory."
"Then since detectors can enter high-dimensional space, why can't humans enter and survive?"
"Because we cannot capture energy in high-dimensional space." Ye Ming silently calculated: "In half a year, the detector's fuel will be exhausted."
】
"Is this determined by the spatial properties of four-dimensional space, or is it determined by the properties of three-dimensional objects?" Professor Tang continued to ask.
"Maybe both." Ye Ming replied, and then laughed: "Teacher, you still said you don't understand..."
Professor Tang laughed loudly: "I really don't understand, that's why I have so many questions."
Yang Chaoxiong immediately flattered him: "Teacher, you don't understand and can't even ask questions!"
"..."
The masters and apprentices here are communicating, but Musk next to him has been thinking. Obviously, he can hear Ye Ming's opposition to "digital life", but he also fell into what Ye Ming said casually before.
Thinking about the conclusion thrown out in one sentence.
——High-dimensional life cannot adapt to the low-dimensional universe and must change the form of life.
"Ye Ming, is it possible that there are lives from higher-dimensional worlds in our universe?" Musk paused and then added with a stern look: "If there are, what form will they take?"
Ye Ming was stunned, and then fell into long thought.
…
At eight o'clock in the evening, Tang and Chen accompanied Ye Ming back to his room.
"Teacher, I really don't care about business. You can find Xiaoqi more reliable than me."
Ye Ming drank red wine tonight. Although it was not very intoxicating, he was still a bit drunk. He sat on the sofa and asked the hotel's mechanical butler to make tea for the three of him.
After looking at each other with Professor Chen, Professor Tang smiled slightly: "Can't I chat with you without talking about business?"
"Well...of course you can, and we can welcome you on the couch at any time."
"Well, that's what we call talking." Professor Tang nodded. Seeing that Ye Ming was still distracted and thinking, he asked tentatively: "Still thinking about Musk's problem today?"
Ye Ming glanced at the two of them and saw the concern in the eyes of the two teachers. He breathed softly and then nodded.
Musk's "bold vision" today did serve as a reminder.
Although humans want to achieve immortality, with current technology, even Ye Ming believes that it may not be possible in his lifetime - because there is currently no sign that electromagnetic waves can reversibly form self-awareness.
As a rigorous scientist, Ye Ming never believed that digital life could be easily realized.
The consciousness of living things, especially self-consciousness, belongs to the realm of "God".
However, if it is realized, then... digital life is life in another dimension.
If humans can do this, then, as Musk said, is there life in this three-dimensional universe that was once four-dimensional?
Ye Ming even thought of Yin Ta.
Yin Ta, is she really just an AI?
That……
Is there... an AI that needs to be taught step by step by itself even if 1 1 is equal?
In other words, is it necessary for the system to give itself such an AI?
