Chapter 331: Invalid evolution and fixed-point evolution
It is obvious and precise to have exhaustive evolution without sufficient supply of materials.∷, of course, robots themselves can also be considered materials, with extremely large amounts, and possibly hundreds of trillions of robots themselves, which are a lot of resources. However, these resources are still very limited compared to a planet or a star system. The materials required for exhaustive evolution can only be supported by the star system, but cannot be supported by the robot group itself.
Xiao Yun was silent for a moment and figured out this truth. So Xiao Yun nodded and said, "This plan seems to be very feasible. I will start to make arrangements to let the plan be experimented on the robot group as soon as possible."
"My team also proposed the second and third plans," said Xiao Muhong. "Or, you should make a comprehensive judgment on these three plans."
"Please say it." Xiao Yun continued.
"We call the second solution "ineffective evolution" solution." Xiao Muhong said calmly, "In short, it is to consume the living power of the robot group through the technological level that some robot groups will never be able to evolve to, so as to drag them into the abyss of evolution and ultimately achieve the goal of eliminating all robots."
"This solution is as follows: we know the evolution mechanism of robots, and know that after they acquire a high-tech creation, they try to master the high-tech creation through exhaustive evolution, and ultimately achieve the purpose of using this technology for their own purposes. Moreover, this exhaustive evolution is engraved in their bones. Once a creature that exceeds their technological level appears, then exhaustive evolution will surely begin."
"So...if we design and create a technological creation that is very different from the existing robot technology level. Suppose the existing technological level of the robot group is only enough to make a pistol. But we have given the robot group a natural disaster-level weapon? Does this mean that no matter how many robots are, no matter how long it takes to evolve, they will never be able to master the principle of natural disaster-level weapons? Because the technological gap between a pistol and a natural disaster-level weapon is too big. There are countless technological faults in it, and the evolution of robots also needs to be progressive step by step, and they are unlikely to produce a technological leap."
"So what consequences will happen in this way? We know that exhaustive evolution comes at the cost of robots. Every evolution failure will kill a robot. And... a robot that only understands the principles of pistol manufacturing will never rely on exhaustive evolution to master the principle of manufacturing natural disaster-level weapons. Does this mean that the robot group will waste all its energy on this impossible thing, resulting in the decline of its own race?"
Xiao Muhong finished talking about the plan they called "ineffective evolution" in one breath, then stopped, looked at Xiao Yun quietly, waiting for Xiao Yun's reply.
Xiao Yun rubbed his head tiredly and fell into thinking again. After a while, Xiao Yun shook his head and denied the plan: "I don't think this plan is feasible."
"First of all, this plan was wrong from the beginning. Because the primary purpose of robots is to reproduce. Evolution only serves reproduction, that is, there is a difference between the two. If that's the case, how can we expect robots to sacrifice their entire ethnic group because of reproduction? This is unreasonable."
"Secondly, even if your assumption is correct, the robot will suffer from too much exhaustive evolution, but... I don't think that the robot's designers and makers would ignore such obvious loopholes. He only sets a rule, that is, if the evolutionary goal is too difficult to achieve, then temporarily seal the evolutionary goal and avoid investing too much in the price for the goal. Just such a rule is enough."
"So, in general, I don't think this plan is feasible," Xiao Yun concluded, "but... this plan still has some advantages. I think we can use this plan to experiment on the robot group."
"Okay." Xiao Muhong nodded calmly, "Then let me talk about the third plan found by our team. We call this plan "fixed-point evolution."
"Please say it." Xiao Yun signaled.
"The evolution mechanism of robots is to rely on foreign technology creation to enhance their own technology. In our current situation, robots rely on the technology of our human civilization to achieve their own evolution. In other words, our human civilization has the dominance of the technological development of robots. Can you understand the meaning of this sentence?"
Xiao Muhong paused for a moment and again cast his sight on Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun nodded: "I can understand these meanings. It is true that as you said, we have the dominance of the development of robot technology. In some aspects, how the robot technology develops depends on us. In which aspect we want the robot to develop in, the robot group will develop in."
Xiao Muhong said: "Yes, that's right. Our third plan is also proposed based on this foundation. The specific content is: Our team will once again work with various institutes under the Academy of Sciences to develop a complete set of scientific and technological trees. If the technology tree develops, the robot group will also improve its own abilities. But like the first plan, the science and technology tree also has a fatal loophole: as long as the robot group evolves according to this scientific and technological tree, when they evolve to a certain level, the core chip will have a fatal mechanical defect, and the defect cannot be repaired through virtual world means."
"In this way, when fighting with the robot group, we can stimulate the vulnerability by broadcasting a message containing a specific character code. All the core chips of robots that have been triggered will be burned. If the brain is lost, the robot will naturally die. This is the fixed-point evolution plan developed by our team."
Xiao Yun fell into deep thought again. After a moment, Xiao Yun said: "This solution is also very feasible. However, I also have a question to ask you, have you considered the situation where robots start to evolve after a rapid and large number of deaths? If our human civilization goes all out to develop a special science and technology tree with fatal defects, and thus makes the robots significantly improve their abilities, but because the robots start to evolve exhaustively, they eliminate the defects and leave only the part that is beneficial to them, then in this way, wouldn't we make wedding clothes for the enemy in vain?"
"Of course I have considered this issue." Xiao Muhong said very simply, "I can answer your concerns from two aspects. First of all, this technology tree is specially customized. You should know that since the development of science and technology is based on a certain path, it is unlikely to change to other paths. Even if it can, it will inevitably have to pay a heavy price because this is not a specific technology, it is a systematic and complete technology system."
"I can give an example of this. It is like the "alchemy system" developed in our civilization in the feudal era. Alchemy is undoubtedly wrong. But our civilization has been on this wrong path for a long time. The alchemy system has no value for modification. Only by completely and completely overturning it and re-establishing the correct scientific development system can we return to the right path. So I ask you, can you modify the alchemy system into a correct scientific development system? You can't do it. Therefore, the special science and technology tree we have formulated for robots. As long as the robots embark on this path according to our plan, they cannot do the defect of modifying the science and technology tree. The only thing they can do is to completely overturn the science and technology tree and start to develop from the starting point. And... overturning the science and technology tree means the demise of the robot group."
"This is the first point, and the second point is that if death comes too fast, the robot group will not have time to carry out exhaustive evolution. We can think that robots in one star system and robots in another star system can be regarded as physically isolated, and they can be regarded as two unrelated groups. And if we destroy all robots in one star system in a very short time and do not give them time to deliver death messages to robot groups in other star systems... Then how do they start exhaustive evolution?"
"You know... the information carrying a specific code segment is propagated at the speed of light. In a very short time, it can sweep the entire star system and be received by all robots in the star system. Once the data is received, the core chips of the robot will be burned immediately and they will die immediately. Wherever the radio waves reach, the robots will fall in pieces, and no robot will survive."
Xiao Muhong's tone was always calm and without any emotional fluctuations. He described a doomsday scene for a robot without any emotional fluctuations. The invisible and qualitative radio waves swept across the entire galaxy at the speed of light, and it would bring death wherever it went... If this plan could be implemented smoothly, the robot would not know how he died until he died.
Death comes so fast and so much, how can they have time to start exhaustive evolution and find solutions to death through exhaustive evolution?
