Chapter 154
(Title: Human Wisdom)
In fact, the existence of this chain of contempt is unreasonable. In Zhang Yuan's era, the function of bionic organs was not as good as that of human organs. However, with the development of science and technology, bionic organs have long surpassed themselves.
"Mr. Yamamoto, where is the reproductive system?" someone suddenly asked in the audience.
"The reproductive system? You can keep it or not..." Yamamoto frowns said: "However, keeping the reproductive system will increase the complexity of the system. I still prefer not to keep it. Or, it must be. If you want to be a bionic organ with only tactile function."
"If you want to make yourself happy, you can directly stimulate your brain with bioelectricity to get the same feeling..."
The entire venue was in an uproar. In this way, wouldn't human beings become a "brain in a tank" existence?
Except for the brain, all are machines. Are humans or humans? Can you get the same feeling with a little current?
"Yamamoto Academician, your idea seems to be too ideal!"
"I don't agree with it!"
"This has a serious impact on our ethics Challenge!"
"...What about the brain in the tank? Who can be sure that you are not living in the world of the brain in the tank now?" Professor Yamamoto retorted loudly, "It's just Is it possible to change the true nature of human beings by replacing the human skin with higher machinery?"
"What is the true nature of human beings?! Can you answer? Could it be your cells? Does it represent you?"
But there are still not many people who can accept it.
Zhang Yuan faintly felt that the atmosphere in the venue seemed a bit chaotic, the discussion was getting louder and louder, and various opinions emerged endlessly.
Even though the benefits of this kind of bionics transformation are obvious, the overwhelming majority here still cannot accept it.
Even more difficult to accept than the public welfare system...
He quietly asked Academician Ding, who was sitting next to him, "teacher, is there no better one? Everyone can generally accept it. Is there any plan for this?"
Academician Ding faintly smiled: "So...what's your idea?"
Zhang Yuan hesitated for a moment, but still strengthened his belief: "I only Obey the results of the calculation. If they are correct, then... execute it. This kind of debate is totally unnutritious."
"But for ordinary persons, these two schemes are really It’s too radical and there may be no way to accept it."
"The so-called better way? Where is there any better way?"
Academician Ding lightly said: "What we have to do , Is to change the entire civilization from the root, starting from the root node is completely different. Only in this way can we take a crucial step to get rid of mediocrity."
"...you have to know that through laws and morals The reform of the People’s Republic of China is absolutely unreliable. People of this generation have witnessed the decline and fall of Earth civilization, and indeed have the driving force for reform. But shouting a loud and ideal slogan can motivate for a while, but it cannot motivate the whole life."
"Because human nature is here, human nature has not undergone any changes since the birth of mankind... People are self-interested creatures, and there are few exceptions."
"No experience, There will be no corresponding beliefs. When this generation of us dies, future generations will waste all our efforts. They are impossible to have our beliefs and persistence."
"A great civilization , There is no way to build it in one generation. The zeal of the gentleman will be cut in the fifth generation; the zeal of the villain will be cut in the fifth generation. The earth civilization has declined, and the generations behind cannot feel it. There is basically impossible motivation."
There was silence for a while, and Academician Ding said: "So, humans are still humans. After thousands of years, our civilization has become the same civilization as Earth civilization. Zhang Yuan, do you accept this speculation? "
Zhang Yuan was stunned. Professor Ding's speculation was very cold, and it didn't sound very comfortable.
But this speculation is indeed in line with normal logic.
The humans on Earth Era have witnessed the rise and decline of Earth civilization with their own eyes, the pain and shock that the following generations cannot appreciate.
If the first generation cannot make major changes, then the following generations are even more impossible to make major changes.
It is indeed unrealistic to rely on things like morality to restrain the people behind, because morality itself is the product of Nash equilibrium under the mutual game of human society. If a certain "morality" goes against the interests of most people, then humans will abandon it without the slightest hesitation.
Academician Ding continued: "However, Zhang Yuan, there are many things in the world. As long as we make a choice, future generations will not be able to make any changes! For example, several points raised at the meeting. "
"If you think about it carefully, there is a child who has no parents since birth. The father's love and the mother's love are all given to him by robots. And everyone around him has no parents, he will think this is As it should be by rights, the world itself works like this."
"If a person lives in society, the surrounding people are all bionics and have undergone related transformations. He would feel that there is nothing at the worst about performing bionic surgery, and he would not insist on pure anthropology of shit..."
Zhang Yuan sighed, yes, it is true.
Human beings are a kind of conformity creatures. Herd is not a phenomenon, but a part of human nature. It is the best choice based on human physiological characteristics.
But, are the transformed humans still humans? He was also a little puzzled.
"So, what kind of humans are humans?"
Academician Ding laughed: "Is the gene as the standard? The chimpanzee's genes are similar to humans at 99 %, why are they not humans? The genetic gap between Paramecium and humans is not big."
"Genes will be screened due to the environment. Maybe tens of thousands of years later, humans who are used to living in space , Has formed reproductive isolation from us. Are they real humans, or are we real humans?"
"...Based on wisdom? Those with Innate mental retardation or Alzheimer’s Do you have to be expelled? If you are so smart and stupid than you, do you stop being a human?"
"Culture is the standard? If you live in medieval Europe, say, "The sun is The center of the entire universe will be burned alive; if you live in the Qing Dynasty, you have to tie your braids, and you have to kneel down when you see officials! Do you think these pedantic creatures are humans?"
"Nothing is eternal, especially thinking about this thing, which changes the fastest."
"As long as you think you are human, then you are human."
Zhang Yuan understood what Academician Ding meant, and he sighed slightly.
Looking at the noisy group of people around, what people are struggling with now may become very ridiculous for people in the future.
Human wisdom.
It's...naive.
