The story of Thanksgiving is very scary, but it is also full of uncertainty. This concept has appeared many times before, and it provides an in-depth analysis of whether this concept poses a definite threat to turkeys or humans and considers its significance.
Turkeys don’t know Thanksgiving, but Thanksgiving means the demise of some turkey groups, which will be sent to factories and then cooked and served on human tables.
But turkeys will not disappear because of Thanksgiving, because as long as humans still exist and Thanksgiving still exists, turkeys will continue to exist. Looking at Thanksgiving at this time, it seems to have become the ultimate goal for turkeys to realize the lofty value of chickens.
Target.
At least this is the purpose of artificially raising turkeys. We can't be too impatient to raise a group of turkeys that are destined to die in the chicken coop and never realize their self-worth in their lives, right?
…
Yougege also thinks so in the book.
When humans think about Thanksgiving, they should not only see the bloody side of Thanksgiving, but should also be alert to the extended meaning behind this concept, that is, where is the realization of human value?
…
This is also the last part of the entire "Free Consciousness".
"Beyond the Stars"
Here, Yougege gave many questions.
Among them, Zhuo Zhiwen made detailed records of five.
The first question is "Where is the value of human beings in the world?"
The world Yougege mentioned here is not just the human world, because according to our current overall social consciousness, there are many choices and directions for realizing one's own value in society.
You can play many roles, such as an outstanding employee, a filial son or daughter, a great parent, a loyal partner, an outstanding scientist, a patriotic person, etc.
But in summary, personal value always serves human society itself.
This is completely different from the overall ecology of the earth.
Because the premise is to serve human beings, not the natural ecology.
Some people may question, if I am a natural scientist and I turn the desert into an oasis, am I not serving nature and realizing my self-worth in the world?
In fact, it is not the case... The original value and significance of the concept of desert turning into oasis is still to serve human beings. It is a concept that was born to create an environment more suitable for human habitation. Perhaps some animals that also need oasis to maintain their lives will benefit from it, but it does not
It does not mean that this value has been fully reflected.
The questions raised by Yougege here are not questions for the sake of questions, but questions raised on a special basis.
Zhuo Zhiwen found the most reliable supplements and explanations through the Internet.
"What is the value of lonely human beings in the world?"
Perhaps this is what Yougege really wants to ask.
Human beings are really lonely. This loneliness is buried in the subconscious, and there is a feeling of being cold at high places.
Humanity, which already occupies a dominant position in the earth's ecology, has tried to establish contact with alien civilizations, but under the warning of the "Law of the Dark Forest", this move that has no short-term benefits has been suspended.
[For details, you can search for the word "Red Bank"]
After the pause, people spent more energy on themselves and became a lonely existence growing silently on the earth.
But oddly enough, our desire for other independent minds is torn between anticipation and panic.
Looking forward to it because there is an answer to this question.
panic
, because the collision between different ideas may not bring about fusion, but substitution.
The second question is "How much living space do humans need to be satisfied?"
When talking about living space, what do you think of? Is it crowded or abundant?
Yougege’s self-answer may be completely different from everyone else’s.
She said: "It's so small that it's hard to breathe, but it's so big that it's unimaginable."
This statement makes people feel very confused... What does it mean to be too small to breathe? And too big to imagine? Do writers like to use this kind of contradictory rhetoric?
In fact, when you continue reading, you will find that Yougege’s statement is not confusing at all.
Here, Yougege compares his residence, the largest villa in the city, the overall area of the city, the area of the country where the city is located, the land area of the world, the overall area of the earth, what fraction of the earth is equivalent to the sun, and compares the sun with other celestial bodies.
, and finally stopped in front of the largest celestial body currently observed by humans.
The numbers at this time have grown beyond imagination.
Some people may think that this comparison is nothing. Isn't it just to express that the earth is nothing but dust compared to the universe?
actually not.
In terms of the universe, the earth is not as big as dust. The volume of dust in the universe may be equivalent to a galaxy...
In this contrast, what does Yougege want to express?
Is it a small expression? Or a large expression?
Yougege did not explain clearly, but she quoted an idea after completing the comparison.
Perhaps in a few decades or hundreds of years, humans will be put into a box that is difficult to turn over from birth. There, you will be surrounded by hybrid nanorobots that collect neurofeedback information from your body.
Thoughts are wired from birth.
This is the plot of "The Matrix".
But Yougege made modifications on this basis.
In "The Matrix", mankind was reduced to this state due to defeat, but in Yugege's imagination, this box was made by mankind itself and was called the "Eternal Box" or the "Darkest Box".
Its power is that it can store one or billions of consciousnesses and help them complete "world construction" without difficulty.
So the initial "too small to breathe" turned into the final "unimaginable".
After reading the second question, Zhuo Zhiwen's mind suddenly became more active because she thought of a set of "truths" recently published by AOA on the Internet. The question included the "Number Sequence Battlefield" system being studied by the US government.
.
This system is an upgraded and improved system based on the old simulated battlefield system for soldiers to receive "actual combat" training.
The advantage is that there is no need to mobilize troops and spend a lot of resources to conduct real-life exercises. Soldiers can also experience the most realistic battlefield on the "digital battlefield".
But the problem is that this system is still immature and has several failure cases.
The "truth" announced by aoaa reveals the consequences of these failed cases...
That is to turn the subjects into "vegetative people" who no longer have thoughts. Their bodies are still alive, but no one knows where their thoughts have gone.
Although after the "truth" was disclosed, the US Department of National Security immediately refuted the rumors and said that AOA's disclosure had no factual basis because so far no one can be sure that human consciousness definitely exists.
[In layman’s terms, just like Zeng Yijie explained the problem of human emotional consciousness before
As mentioned at the time, is emotion a spiritual thing, or is it a feedback experience of brain nerves brought about by body hormones?】
In short, the U.S. Department of National Security admitted the existence of the experiment, but also disclosed the agreement signed by the subjects, and emphasized that the knowledge accidentally caused a pause in brain activity, and they would "wake up" early.
With these explanations, and the fact that AOA has been regarded as a "terrorist organization" in the public eye in recent years, the "truth" bomb finally went off.
But the thinking left to the Department of National Security is quite different.
Especially Zhuo Zhiwen now.
Thinking of this, she picked up the pen and made a new note in her notes, which read: "aoa - numerical battlefield - missing consciousness - United States".
Keep looking down.
The third question is rather strange.
Yougege’s original words were “Should ordinary people pay attention to scientific development?”
This question may not seem strange at first glance, but the reason why it is strange is that the answer to this question seems obvious.
Not enough. When Zhuo Zhiwen looked down, she felt that it was not that simple anymore.
The notes clearly recorded a small question that Yougege added under the question, that is, as powerless people, do we need to pay attention to the development of science and the future of mankind?
For a long time, for most people, science has been closely related to our lives. However, because we do not understand science and feel it is strange and distant, we do not pay much attention to the development status and principles of science.
Just like everyone knows how to take pictures with their mobile phones and knows how to distinguish the quality of mobile phone cameras, few people know what it means to put a high-precision camera module in an ultra-thin mobile phone.
Because it's too complicated.
Science always feels so ungrounded.
Most people in society also know very well that people engaged in science are like gods who can read heavenly books. Whatever they say, we are all confused.
In this case, why should we still pay attention to scientific development?
If you have any questions, just leave them to scientists.
If you have that free time, why not see more fun things and eat delicious food.
That's why this question seems strange.
It seems that we, who are "powerless", really do not need to pay attention to the development of science, let alone the future of mankind.
But is this really the case?
The answer given by Yougege is "big mistake!"
She believes that everyone should pay attention to these issues, regain thinking tools, and realize that scientific development and progress are driving the overall transformation of mankind.
And this overall transformation concerns every individual.
It’s not that you should give up because you can’t understand the “Book of Heaven”, but you should look through those complicated things and see the profound meaning behind the development of science.
Just like "artificial intelligence".
For most people, artificial intelligence is a highly sophisticated scientific product, and its complexity is definitely not something that ordinary people can understand.
But everyone should be clearly aware of the earth-shaking changes that "artificial intelligence" will bring to human society.
This point has been partially mentioned in the previous "Elimination".
And here, Yougege once again emphasized that the revolution brought about by "artificial intelligence" is closely related to everyone.
Because if you don't pay attention to it and don't think about it, you will become the first group of existences to be replaced by "artificial intelligence".
