Chapter 294 The fate of mankind

Changing human beings is a grand proposition. Given Liu Kunlun's limited cultural knowledge, Ji Yu never tires about explaining his views to him.

"What was the world like a hundred years ago? Britain was still an empire that never set, with colonies all over the world. Germany, as a defeated country, was in social turmoil. The United States was not a world policeman, pursuing unilateralism. Japan was ambitious and attempted to occupy neighboring countries. China had just completed the Northern Expedition and was still in fragmentation and was in a mess. At that time, the great powers judged heroes by the output of steel and coal. They fought against the tonnage of warships and the caliber of main guns. How many divisions had the troops, the reserve of artillery shells, the kilometers of railways, the quality of soldiers, and the quality of aircraft. In that era, launching wars was still cost-effective. They could divert domestic conflicts, dump goods, and plunder resources. So a hundred years later, what has happened to our world?"

Ji Yugan opened the virtual screen with her, showing the documentary from a hundred years ago, World War I, World War II, folk life, and the texture of black and white films simulated the vicissitudes of the times. A hundred years are just a drop in the ocean of human history, but changes have taken place beyond the previous five thousand years.

"In today's wars no longer aim at fighting for land, population, mineral resources. The cost and benefits paid to occupy a country are not proportional. The form of war is no longer comparing with the output of steel, coal and oil and the number of people of appropriate age. Wars rely on drones and robots to fight. Of course, this does not mean that wars will not happen without profit, but it is just that large-scale deaths will no longer be done."

"Today, the population on the earth is 8 billion, and the newly added population is almost all in non-developed countries. They believe in monotheism and guide their lives according to the teachings of a thousand years ago. On the contrary, the population of developed countries is on the decline. The developed medicine and the deciphering of genetic codes have made human lifespans longer and longer. Pay attention to the obituaries in recent years. You will know that the dead celebrities basically have a lifespan of over 100 years old, but humans in developed areas are increasingly disliked to have children. On the one hand, the number of retired people has increased, the pension gap has increased, and the pressure has been transferred to young people, so young people have no economic foundation to raise them later."

"Someone said, isn't it okay for us to introduce population? Just like Europe ten years ago, we introduced a large number of refugees from North Africa and the Middle East to supplement our labor force. I don't mention the quality of refugees. Even if they are as hardworking and willing to work like Chinese people, how many jobs are left for them in the world?"

"Twenty years ago, we went to a restaurant for dinner, and there were waiters ordering orders and serving dishes. Now, from the welcome to the delivery staff, they are all robots, and even the chefs are robots in fast food restaurants. The factory is even more terrible. 100% automated management, and there is no sign of a living person in the entire factory. We shop online, drones and robots deliver goods to our doorsteps, we violate traffic regulations, electronic eye records and take photos, we take trains and planes, from ticket purchase to security checks, no manpower is needed, when we travel, we are no longer traveling. When a human-driven taxi passes the toll station, it will be billed automatically. A living worker needs to eat, drink, defecate, and sometimes a migrant worker needs to pay five insurances and one fund. He needs to socialize, entertain, fall in love, breed, and have houses and cars. Sometimes he will get sick and take leave. Then the robot does not need these. The robot works for seven days and twenty-four hours. Although the purchase fee is a bit higher, the cost in the later stage is low, and he is diligent and hardworking. Let me ask these refugees, which point can be compared to the robot?"

"What does Mr. Ji want to say?" Kunlun couldn't help asking.

"I want to say that our world has changed. The emergence of artificial intelligence has caused a large number of people to be unemployed and laid off, but they cannot die immediately. On the contrary, due to the development of genetic technology, many diseases can be overcome. These people cannot live well or die quickly. However, technological progress cannot be stopped, so our future is very troublesome."

"so what?"

"So we need to change humans together." Ji Yugan finally reached the point, "Our bodies are not as good as robots, and our wisdom is not as good as artificial intelligence. Countless Hollywood movies predict a terrifying future. Artificial intelligence rebelled and replaced humans. This is not an exaggeration. In fact, the artificial intelligence developed in our future technology will tell me without any obscureness. It feels that the existence of humans is purely redundant."

Thrilling science fiction has become an imminent reality, and it is unrealistic to stop the development of technology. The wheel of history rolls forward, and no one can get a mantis chariot. Where will humans go? This is a serious question.

Ji Yugan gave the answer: "Humans themselves are bound by themselves, and our brains have constant computing speed, and artificial intelligence can continuously improve efficiency. Our bodies will be tired, injured, and die. However, when a robot is damaged, it only needs to replace parts. As long as the consciousness is not destroyed, humans will not perish. On the contrary, humans will develop into higher-level creatures, which I call them new humans."

"You must be curious about what the new human looks like. I can describe it. The new human is like you, tall and handsome, well-proportioned and healthy, with developed physical strength, tirelessness, accurate brain operations, super reaction ability, never get sick, even in an air crash, will never die, even if the body is lost, you can print a new one at any time, technology is developing rapidly, and in the future we will no longer need to rely on cloning to maintain immortality. In fact, my company has been engaged in the research and development of artificial intelligence and gene editing, but we have a bottleneck, how to export and implant consciousness, that is, the soul, which seriously hinders our process. Fortunately, I met you."

After Ji Yugan said this, he did not ask Liu Kunlun to make a decision on the spot, but left a book and left with ease.

This book is called "The Revolution of Science", which is a very rare paper print. Books have become luxury these days, and reading objects are presented on electronic screens. Ji Yugan is not only a scientist, but also a prophet. The things he presents in the book are more systematic and more reasonable and well-founded than the stories he just told, and it makes people shudder when reading them.

 

;     Ji Yugan's works explain the crises and turning points brought by the biological revolution and the information revolution. The differences between human race and ethnic groups will be replaced by biological differences. They no longer distinguish black, white, yellow races, but are divided into two categories: new humans and humans. New humans are the direction of human development, and humans are slowly transformed into useless waste. They cannot find jobs, and the simplest physical labor no longer requires humans, and they are not even qualified to engage in the oldest industry of humans, because bionic beauties have longer legs and bigger breasts, and are gentler and considerate than real people.

No one will automatically exit the stage of history, let alone the humans who once dominated the world. So where is the destination of human beings? Ji Yugan gave the answer. In the world after the information revolution, massive information flows at high speed, everything is connected, and humans stay online for longer. These wastes are lying on the sofa every day after eating and drinking, connecting to the Internet, and acting as living RPG roles in the virtual world, which is their only function.

Ji Yugan reminds in the book that the development process of mankind has reached the most critical era, like the rolling Yangtze River flowing eastward, unstoppable, and when the times abandon you, they will not say hello to you.

Liu Kunlun can understand the meaning of this book better than ordinary people. Ji Yugan did not exaggerate it. The biotechnology revolution is a gene editing technology developed by the old fairy for huge sums of money. In the future, humans will defeat diseases and death. As long as consciousness persists forever, the body can be replaced. At present, this technology is basically mature. However, biotechnology must be synchronized with the information revolution to realize this dream. When humans master the technology of soul movement, the new era that Ji Yugan mentioned is truly coming.

Kunlun is the crystallization of advanced biotechnology and information technology, and is the new human predicted by Ji Yugan.

Now he finally understood why Shura values ​​himself so much as future technology, because he puts his destiny on mankind. It can be said that if he controls himself, he will control the future of mankind.

But Shura Society is different from Ji Yuhan. The purpose of the "group" that Ji Yufan mentioned is to control humans and continue their rule. Ji Yuhan's purpose is to change humans and create a new era.

Ji Yufan and Ji Yugan both wanted to get the secret of soul transfer from Liu Kunlun. They believed that Liu Kunlun's technology was better than the old fairy, but in fact, Liu Kunlun was also ignorant of the technology of life and death flow, and knew the reason but not the reason. He had no secret to exchange, and only Kunlun's body could be exchanged.

Where to go, Liu Kunlun fell into confusion. The eighteen years he had been attached to Xiao Baiyang. He had only lived in this world for less than 30 years. He had never been to college or even received a systematic education. He only knew that his brotherhood was loyal, he wanted to be kind, and he could repay his grace in a drop of water. He only knew that he should be kind and stayed at the forefront of his own affairs, his relatives' affairs, and his company affairs. But when the process of all mankind was in front of him, he really didn't know how to go.

The "ethnic group" represented by Ji Yufan is solemn that humankind peace and the world is harmonious. In fact, they just want to continue to maintain their superiority. They also realize that the world is changing. With the revolutionary development of biotechnology and information technology, their advantages will no longer exist. Therefore, they must control technology in their hands, walk from behind the scenes to the front stage, and cover up the immortal tribes to become god-like people and continue to rule the world.

In contrast, Ji Yugan was open-minded. Liu Kunlun felt that his views made sense, but he felt that it was not so comfortable. He couldn't say what went wrong.

Wang Haikun and Kunlun sat on the Golden Nanmu Grand Master Chair in the living room without saying a word, lowering their heads to ponder until the sunset was holding the lights, and the staff at home were silent outside and did not dare to disturb them.

After careful consideration, Liu Kunlun finally made a decision, but he still needed to verify his ideas. Among the great scholars of the world, Shao Wenyuan was the only one who survived. He was Liu Kunlun's mentor, and it was the most appropriate to ask him to answer questions.

Most of the international routes in Beijing are handed over to Daxing Airport, and Capital Airport undertakes domestic transportation and private jet services. In the late night terminal, Kunlun boarded a special Gulfstream plane, and its destination is Omi.

The old man likes to go to bed early and get up early. At six o'clock in the morning, Professor Shao went out for a walk and met Kunlun by chance in the community garden.

Shao Wenyuan is nearly ninety years old, but his mind is still clear. When he saw the dew on Kunlun, he knew that he had been waiting here for a long time, so he asked him if he had anything important to come to find me, the old man?

"I'd like to answer your questions and answer questions." Kunlun presented Ji Yugan's "The Revolution of Science". Shao Wenyuan took it and flipped a few pages and said, "I have read this book, but the content is not novel. An Israeli scholar wrote a similar prophecy seven or eight years ago."

Kunlun briefly described what happened recently and asked Mr. Shao for his theoretical support.

Shao Wenyuan said: "I ask you, what is the fairest thing in this world?"

A spark flashed in Kunlun's heart, which coincided with what he thought. He replied: "The most fair thing is time and life."

Shao Wenyuan nodded in praise: "Yes, only time and life are the fairest. Time will not give anyone more, one second less. People in the world, whether they are emperors and saints, or peddlers, will eventually die. There are two eternal laws in the world: one is balance and the other is change. Breaking one balance will inevitably have another balance replacement, which cannot be achieved overnight or reversible. "

Kunlun said: "I know what to do."
