Chapter 381: The enemy on the side of the couch
Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Failure is common. You are still so young, don't be discouraged by a failure.
“This will be your valuable experience in the future.”
Sean slowly raised his head: "Thank you for your encouragement from the wall-faced person."
He took a deep breath and started the report: "Thank you for your tips at the beginning of our group's establishment. You are right, our biggest enemy is actually the hearts of the people.
“We didn’t realize this at first, so the first simulation experiment quickly failed.
"Because there is a huge difference between people who want to upload consciousness and who want to immigrate interstellarly as everyone's consciousness.
"And we did not handle this disagreement well, believing that persuasion would make most people willing to upload their consciousness and hand it over to strangers.
"As a result, we were overthrown by the people, and this experiment failed.
"After that we actively summarized our experience, and finally found that we could only use power to make most people obey the arrangements and upload our consciousness."
Speaking of this, Sean was a little disappointed.
Jiang Yu smiled and comforted again: "Have you ever studied my experience? When I just took over the Solar System, the public didn't understand me very much.
"But now I am willing to let the whole nation discuss the future fate of the solar system nation.
"Because in many cases, most people's perceptions are not necessarily correct, we must use some means to not let the people get deeper into the misunderstanding.
"If you talk about democracy at this time, it will be a complete harm to others and oneself.
"And now the people's vision is no longer so shallow, so they can make appropriate decisions on their own destiny."
Sean finally became less nervous, and he smiled and said, "We have similar ideas, which are inspired by your other prompt, 'In that simulated world, you are the wall-facers'.
“We realized that it was only when we put ourselves into the role of the wall-facing person in the simulation world that simulation experiments began to make progress.
"The Jupiter University team then went through seventy-three simulation experiments, and all failed without exception."
This time, Sean's mood was no longer low: "I picked up some Jupiter University groups, and other representative failure cases to report to you.
"After successfully uploading most of the consciousness, the simulation experiments are still very slow. First of all, because the data storage device is too large and requires too much energy.
"I finally built a large spacecraft after spending a lot of effort. However, during the flight, I was short of energy due to various reasons, so I had to give up the conscious maintenance of most people."
The machine servant brought Shaun a cup of tea. Shaun continued after thanking him: "The entire 'conscious immigration' discussion group did not expect that so much hardware space was needed to store a person's consciousness.
"Later we used a lot of methods, and finally most people built a huge fleet before they became conscious, which solved the problem of insufficient energy.
"But there are many new problems that have occurred, and the fleet has been divided many times during the long journey.
"We had to take all the armed fleets into our own hands and suppress them with force before we finally arrived at the colonial planetary system.
"But new problems are coming. On the one hand, we lack sufficient labor to develop a new world, and on the other hand, we do not have enough resources to produce a large number of clones, so that most people's consciousness can be returned to their bodies.
"In addition, many problems arise in the virtual consciousness space. Many people are unwilling to return to the real world, and many people have developed worldly disgust, bloodthirsty and other emotions over their almost endless lifespan.
"Especially in the virtual space, they are immortal. Many people enjoy killing and have no respect for life.
"The bigger problem is that humans in virtual space generally regard humans in the real world as enemies. After all, they were forced to enter the virtual space at the beginning."
Sean took a sip of tea: "We have tried many times, and humans who have returned to reality are no longer normal people.
"We...we are very alienated from them, as if they were from two different civilizations.
"In short, humans entering the new galaxy will definitely gradually perish because of internal contradictions.
“So we changed our strategy to divide humans into two and prevent people from returning to reality in the virtual world.
"From then on, human beings become a situation where both virtual and real worlds coexist.
"But centuries later, people in the real world began to treat people in the virtual world as playthings, and the two worlds became inequality.
"Because the real world needs to maintain the virtual world, the virtual world is essentially at a disadvantage, and this fragile balance cannot last long."
Jiang Yu pinched his chin: "This is something I didn't expect before."
"We didn't expect such a result in the end," Sean continued: "So we adjusted our strategy and changed to universal virtualization."
Jiang Yu smiled and said, "This is not a good idea."
Sean sighed: "Yes, the consequence of doing so is that the development of the real world will definitely be out of human control.
"First of all, we have tried that after the national virtualization, some of them still need to participate in the real management of the fleet through smart computers.
"But doing this will still polarize humans. It is impossible to return to reality together. People who have always managed reality can naturally return to reality first.
"Just like the previous result, the contradiction between those who return to reality first and those who still exist in the virtual world is irreconcilable.
"People who return to reality first have been guarding against revenge from later generations, while those who remain in the virtual world regard people who return to reality first as enemies.
"Because we have been in the virtual world for a long time and do not respect life enough, the ending is even more cruel than before."
Sean took a sip of tea: "So there can be no special things, we can only give reality completely to the smart computer.
"But even highly independent artificial intelligence lacks sufficient resilience in the face of complex and changing space.
"Whether you encounter alien civilizations or resource or energy bottlenecks, smart computers will find the best solution and the more they solve it.
"Later we thought that we would report the real world experience to people in the virtual world like news, and we would like to express our differences in what happened.
"But it still failed. In the virtual world, all humans have a collective vote. However, people express their opinions and may have to argue for several days when encountering problems.
"And the communication becomes more extreme, and the consensus is simply not reaching a unified opinion.
"Events encountered in space must be solved with extremely fast and efficient results, and the solution of collective voting is not practical at all."
Sean sighed: "In the end, we found that there seems to be only one way to go, and the national consciousness is digitized, and then it keeps digitizing.
"We can develop human technology in the virtual world, so that artificial intelligence can become the body of civilization, and we are the soul.
"But centuries later, humans in the virtual world lost their biological characteristics.
"The endless life span, no new life, has gradually left human beings out of biological instincts, become more and more data-based, and eventually gradually lose their creativity.
"In the end, humans will lose themselves completely like ghosts in the graves after hundreds of years.
