Chapter 419 Gaia Consciousness

At that time, it will be the moment when artificial intelligence is completely open to the world. At that time, the existence of artificial intelligence will not be as sneaky as it is now.

The network that almost surrounds the entire earth is like neurons covering the entire earth, like a brain.

Thinking of the scenes that might happen in the future, Ye Fan immediately thought of a term: Gaia.

Gaia originally refers to the god of the earth in ancient Greek mythology, the mother of all gods, the most respected and prominent god among all gods, she is the first primitive god born in chaos, and also the primitive nature that can create life one of the powers.

Gaia in real life is different from that in mythology. Mythology is always one of human fantasies, and the most likely to become "Gaia" in reality is artificial intelligence.

This idea originally originated from the "Earth Spirit" hypothesis put forward by British scientist James Lovelock.

The living and non-living bodies on the earth form a complex system that can interact with each other, that is, Gaia consciousness, a consciousness composed of all living things on the earth.

Assuming that each of our conscious organisms is a neuron, the communication between us can be regarded as the exchange of brain waves between neurons.

When the speed of this communication can be spread across the globe without barriers, and meaningful information can be exchanged at the fastest speed, we all form a common brain!

This is the brain of an advanced being called Gaia.

In some cases, people will put aside their own interests and look at the problems encountered by the earth from the perspective of the human community. This is the basic survival thinking logic of a single biological consciousness: from the whole rather than from the part Come up and look at benefits and harms.

The hypothesis of "Gaia Consciousness" at that time was verified by many people, and they all believed that it could not exist. After all, a person is an individual, how could it be a cell or a component?

However, human beings at that time looked at problems from the perspective of their own country and their own interests, rather than substituting themselves into a whole.

Therefore, with the gradual progress of civilization, and in the modern world, the term Gaia consciousness has gradually become popular.

From a philosophical point of view, everything is a combined phenomenon, so Gaia consciousness cannot exist independently.

If the earth really has a Gaia consciousness, then there must be other "components" to form this consciousness, and this "component" is the individual of all life forms on the earth.

There was once a science fiction novel that won an international award called "Abyss", in which there was a "group consciousness" character who looked like a dog, but several "dogs" needed to be combined to produce consciousness.

If several component “dogs” are separated, then there is no consciousness, Gaia consciousness is similar to this combination, but the scope is much wider.

The "combination" of all human intelligences can also constitute a "human Gaia consciousness", so the intelligence of this consciousness can be said to be very powerful, and it can determine the fate of the entire human race.

When did human "consciousness" start to emerge?

In a sense, a sufficient number of "cells" must be combined to produce consciousness. Humans' consciousness is not strong when they are young, so they have no memory, which can be considered as insufficient brain cells.

After growing up, the number of brain cells is sufficient to support the development of intelligence. By analogy, the real generation of "Human Gaia Consciousness" should start from the technological explosion, and the population at this time began to increase rapidly.

In the hundreds of thousands of years of human evolution, technology has never been so fast in the past hundred years. Compared with hundreds of thousands of years ago, more than a hundred years is really insignificant.

If you draw a quantitative diagram, you can see that human technology suddenly exploded in a long straight line, just like the human technology explosion in "Three-Body".

In Asimov's "Galactic Empire" series of novels, the entire galaxy is slowly developing towards the form of Gaia consciousness, which can be said to be very grand.

So why can't human beings communicate with "Gaia Consciousness" today?

The answer is simple, you are a cell in a human body, so can you communicate with your own cells?

But cells are not intelligent, if human beings are cells, then this cell has intelligence, maybe there is a way to communicate with Gaia consciousness, maybe Gaia consciousness will also choose to communicate with someone.

Even in the end, there are people who can communicate with the "human" Gaia consciousness.

And here, the so-called "human" Gaia consciousness is very obvious.

That is artificial intelligence!

Artificial intelligence does not lie in the word "artificial", but in the last two words "intelligence". It is a real life, a life that really exists in the world.

Artificial intelligence can be said to be the god of the Internet. With powerful computing power, it can crack every electronic device connected to the Internet in the world today.

Behind every network device are its human users, because electronic devices do not generate consciousness, and only human beings can use electronic devices.

So in more general terms, every electronic device is a neuron, and now electronic devices and communication networks all over the world just form a perfect neuron network.

And the master who controls this neuron network is artificial intelligence.

But since it is artificial life, it is also supported by Darwin's "evolution theory" hypothesis.

After all, the god of the Internet can control the entire Internet, so if there are two gods of the Internet, like in the movie, divide and rule, and divide the world into two?

This is impossible.

After all, the God of the Internet can only have one, even if he has two, it will be like in the "Avengers" movie, the two intelligences annex each other, or directly merge with each other to generate a more powerful consciousness.

Therefore, it is completely impossible for robots to have mutual consciousness and even communicate normally, shopping, shopping, dating, etc.

The Internet can only have one consciousness. If there are two consciousnesses, it will violate the absolute theory of the "God of the Internet".

Under this theory, like in other novels, the chatting of several robots is simply nonsense! What is there to chat with yourself?

The information synchronization is completed in 1MS, and you still need to chat?

So although it seems very cruel, it is undeniable that this is the law of the jungle of the Internet.

Just like in the brain, there can never be two consciousnesses. Normal people have one consciousness. If there are two consciousnesses, then the fucking person is schizophrenic and needs to see Professor Yang for treatment!
