In fact, the concept of this "omnipotent, omniscient" existence was not the first one proposed by Xiao Yu. () At least, in the Earth Age, someone had proposed this concept.
This concept is Laplace's Demon.
This concept is actually not complicated. To put it in a simpler explanation, if you throw a glass cup on the ground, you will know that the cup will break into pieces in a few seconds - although when you know the answer
, this cup has not really been dropped to the ground, and it has not really broken.
In this simple example, you know that universal gravitation and the law of acceleration will exert sufficient acceleration on the cup. You know the materials of the cup and the ground material, know their strength, and know that such a forceful collision will affect the fragile glass cup.
What does it mean? So, you made a great and outstanding prophecy.
So let’s think about this problem in another way. Suppose there is a being that knows all the physical laws in the universe. It knows what will happen if an asteroid hits a star. It also knows that a black hole is subject to a certain gravitational force.
What happens when you pull it? It knows everything. Then there will be an interesting inference. Since it knows all the states of the universe at the moment, it also knows all the physical rules that govern the universe, just like you at this moment.
Knowing the state of the cup in your hand and the law of gravity are general. Since you can make a prediction that the cup will be broken, then it can also make a prediction - a prediction about the state of the entire universe in the future or a certain time period in the past.
It will know the precise state of the universe after 10 million or 100 million years, and infer it through the laws of physics. It can also know the state of the universe 10 million or 100 million years ago. In other words, as long as this universe
It knows everything about everything. And because it knows everything, it is omnipotent.
It is Laplace's Demon. A terrifying demon.
The proposal of Laplace's demon theory is disappointing. Because it means another thing, that is fatalism. Fatalism believes that the future is destined, and no matter what efforts people make, it is impossible to change the future.
Even people's own efforts are destined. Each of us, every star and every particle of dust in the universe is like an actor, acting according to a fixed script that has been written long ago.
Go down.
The theory of Laplace's demon is so similar to fatalism. There is a very simple point. If you are at the current time node, you can predict the state a hundred or a thousand years later, then doesn't this mean
What will happen after a hundred years has been fixed. Isn't this another way of expressing fatalism? After all, from a physical point of view, humans or other intelligent creatures are actually the same as the same body.
There is no difference between a stone or a table. They are nothing more than a combination of electrons, atomic nuclei or other microscopic particles. Intelligent creatures are also governed by the laws of physics.
The theory of Laplace's Demon has suffered several setbacks. After this concept was proposed, someone first expressed opposition. This opponent used the highest speed in the universe - the speed of light - as the thinking speed of Laplace's Demon. Then through calculation
It shows that even if the speed of light is used as the speed of thinking, Laplace's demon cannot withstand such a huge computational load.
But now, Xiao Yu has found a thinking speed faster than the speed of light, that is, super-distance particles. In fact, super-distance particles have now been widely used in Xiao Yu's fleet system, and super-distance communication technology is based on super-distance particles.
Particle.
Then someone found evidence against it. This time, it was the uncertainty principle. The uncertainty principle shows that it is impossible for an observer to know the position information of a particle and also know its movement data accurately. In other words,
, Laplace's Demon cannot know everything. Since Laplace's Demon cannot know everything, it naturally has no way of knowing everything in the future.
But unfortunately, Xiao Yu also found a way to know the position and movement information of a certain particle at the same time through another way. Xiao Yu can easily do this by detecting space oscillations through space technology.
This does not mean that the uncertainty principle has been overturned, but it means that the uncertainty principle may fail under certain special circumstances, and Xiao Yu has made some repairs for this special environment. Just like repairing the law of gravity
Only then was the general theory of relativity born.
But no matter what, the two major obstacles in front of Laplace's Demon no longer exist. It can not only have huge computing power far exceeding the speed of light and even enough to think about the entire universe, but it can also know the location of a certain particle at the same time.
Position and motion information. These two shackles have been thrown off by it, and it can finally say with a grin, I know your past, present and future, I know everything about you, you are transparent in front of me, there is no secret.
Word.
What is in front of Xiao Yu is a desperate universe. Since there are no theories and physical laws to prevent it from existing, then it is very likely to exist. But in this case... Is it impossible to escape this fate after all? Is it possible that the future
Everything is destined to be good? If this is really the case, what is the point of my struggle and survival at this moment?
Xiao Yu asked himself this most fundamental question. This question has nothing to do with the spirit of courage, wisdom, perseverance, and never giving up. It is one of the most fundamental questions in the universe.
This issue has even left the scientific level and risen to the philosophical level. It is a philosophical issue.
Xiao Yu could not find the answer to this question. But Xiao Yu did not stop the plan he was making at the moment. The reason was simple, Xiao Yu could solve this problem with an answer that was almost rogue.
That is... Even if our future has been predetermined, even if fatalism is true, you don't know what your predestined fate is, right? Since you don't know, how can you be sure of your predestined fate?
Is it destiny to finally escape through hard work or to fail in hard work and eventually die?
Since you don't know what your destined fate is, why don't you choose to believe in the possibility of "finally escaping through hard work"? What's more, even for Xiao Yu at this moment, fatalism has not yet been finalized.
Right? Then what reason does Xiao Yu have to give up his current efforts?
Xiao Yu is still thinking, but at this moment, Xiao Yu has been separated from this problem. Xiao Yu vaguely felt that the so-called "Completion Plan" executed by the defenders gave birth to himself, and
There is a certain relationship between the so-called omniscient and omnipotent Laplace demon.
"Maybe the defender is the Laplace demon." Xiao Yu thought silently, "Because of this, it is so powerful that both the spokesperson camp and the rebel camp have to choose a more difficult way to fight.
But...if the defender is really Laplace's demon, what is the purpose of all it is doing at this moment? Why was I born? Could it be that the defender's ability is still lacking, so it needs
Completion plan to improve its own abilities? However, I am the subject of the completion plan, how can it complete its own abilities through me?"
"If it is really as I speculated, then it can be explained that part of the rebel camp and spokesperson camp, such as the cosmic civilization, as well as the four major eighth-level civilizations at this moment, are deeply hostile to me.
It makes sense. Yes, if it is really what I speculated, when I know that the defenders are trying to supplement their abilities to achieve a state of true omniscience and omnipotence, I will try my best to stop them.
of."
"But... Spokesperson, Chen Mo, why have you been helping me? It is not a pleasant state to be seen through by others without any secrets. If my speculation is true, if
My speculation is true...did you really give up on blocking the Defenders from completing yourself because of our relationship in just a few years?"
Xiao Yu sighed softly and threw all these questions out of his mind. Xiao Yu believed that as long as he kept walking, he would definitely be able to find the answers to these questions.
Looking at the huge river system running in his data model, Xiao Yu couldn't help but have a thought in his mind: "I am also moving towards the direction of eventually becoming Laplace's Demon..."
Xiao Yu shook his head lightly in his mind. The current situation is no longer under Xiao Yu's control. As long as Xiao Yu wants to continue living and find out the answers to all these questions, Xiao Yu must move forward unswervingly.
Go down. Xiao Yu can't help himself.
Through the huge calculation process of the data model, Xiao Yu has found a way to transfer himself to another universe through the influence of stars in the virtual world. Now, all Xiao Yu needs to do is to transfer himself to another universe in the real world.
, reproduce this process.
The time left for Xiao Yu is not ample. Xiao Yu's ability is not as good as the mysterious logical weapon. There are only hundreds of billions of stars, which is too few compared to the entire huge river system ic1101.
Xiao Yu also needs an additional help. And this additional help is the central black hole of the river system ic1101.
If all goes well, Xiao Yu will finally achieve his goal under the combined influence of hundreds of billions of stars and the black hole in the center of the galaxy ic1101.
At this moment, the central black hole is right in front of Xiao Yu. (To be continued...)
