Chapter 405: Combining for the Times
Some wise scholars have proposed that the distribution of needs can be implemented in society.
However, the emergence of strong artificial intelligence has put the entire human society in an era of great material abundance, so how to divide the scope is a bit difficult.
First of all, survival materials must be supplied in sufficient quantities. In order to ensure that humans enjoy the changes brought about by the third-level civilization technology, many common civilian materials cannot be treated differently.
However, since we want to stimulate the enthusiasm of the people, we must make some differences in treatment, otherwise the whole society will definitely lose motivation.
Based on this, scholars have turned their attention to traditional fields.
They suggest that the new government retain the knowledge of traditional manufacturing, machinery, industry, agriculture and other industries that will be completely replaced by strong artificial intelligence. In other words, these things will still be offered courses and taught to humans who like them, and some corresponding knowledge assessment systems will be established.
Let humans who learn this part of knowledge, even if they don’t use it in daily life, can also obtain corresponding preferential treatment through the knowledge assessment system. Of course, it is not a one-time assessment for lifelong use.
Scholars believe that this system can not only keep humans enthusiastic about learning, but also keep exercising the human brain, so that those talents who are not talented in scientific research can continue to shine.
Maybe these people will come up with some inventions and improvements.
And after talking about so many preferential treatments, what are the differences in preferential treatment?
For this question, the opinions of these experts and scholars are very consistent, and they all look to the life potion!
In the case that not everyone is a saint, only this thing can drive people to work hard. Most people's instinct is to be greedy for life and afraid of death, which is the same as seeking benefits and avoiding harm.
It is true that there are some individuals who do not cherish their lives, but they are a minority after all, and the reason why those individuals do not cherish their lives is nothing more than being forced by life. Various pressures oppress him and make him breathless, unable to roll inward, and live unsatisfactory. This is a kind of helplessness, not that he does not cherish life, but to find relief.
In a society dominated by capital, overtime has become a culture, and punctuality has become a shame. The meeting has to be held after get off work, and the employees are kindly asked to have dinner before the meeting, and then everyone will go to the site, and go home to take a shower and sleep at night after the work. How considerate. Everyone is rolling, if you don't roll, you will be eliminated by society.
Under all kinds of pressure, there are always people who can't roll, so they are depressed and finally take the path of giving up life.
In the interstellar era, materials are abundant and energy is squandered. With strong artificial intelligence, every day of life is a kind of happiness. You are willing to lie down and play with your artificial intelligence assistant every day. In this case, people will naturally cherish life more, because living is happy!
Therefore, in order to inspire people's fighting spirit, we can only start with life potions.
The advice of experts and scholars is very simple, that is, to treat them differently.
Now humans have three versions of life potions. If they are used one by one, the life span of human individuals can basically reach 1500 years.
Scholars suggest that 1500 years can be set as the basic life span of humans at this stage. Now the research and development of new life potions is estimated to be successful. When the new potion is successfully developed, it can be used as a bargaining chip for treatment.
People like scientific researchers and scientists must be given priority as a privileged class.
And ordinary people who want to break through the limit of life span should strive to become scientific researchers and scientists. Of course, it is not to close all access channels. Those who have made contributions in invention and creativity can also be given.
These privileges are to prevent ordinary people from buying them, no matter how many contribution points they have, because contribution points have become the currency of human society. Over the long years, some people engaged in business activities can obtain massive contribution points through various business means. In the previous system, they are the easiest to obtain 1,500 years of life, except for various scientific researchers and engineers.
Of course, in the future, the acquisition of the three versions of Life Potion 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 will be similar to before, and can be linked to contribution coins.
However, if you want to get the latest version, you can only become a person who contributes to mankind, such as scientists, scientific researchers, research scholars, etc., and there are also various disciplines suggested by some scholars before, such as those professions replaced by strong artificial intelligence. As long as you pass the new government's new regulations and prove that you are the top knowledge owner in this field, you will have a chance.
Science and technology are supreme. Only science and technology can keep mankind going. Therefore, in many rule-making, it is inevitable to favor individuals engaged in the development of science and technology. There is no way around it.
In short, privileges exist, but there are also many opportunities. Anyone who works hard and does not lie flat will eventually have the opportunity to become one of the people with the longest lifespan.
Of course, if people are treated differently, it will definitely cause social hatred and eventually lead to the division of society into two distinct groups.
According to Yi Kai, given human nature, if people are treated differently and the possibility of promotion is completely locked, it is not impossible for a group like the "Dragon Man" to appear.
Therefore, in the discussion, experts and scholars all believe that 1,500 years of life is only the bottom line at this stage, and it is not fixed forever. After the continuous development of science, with the emergence of new methods of prolonging life, this minimum standard will also rise accordingly.
In this way, if civilians want to live longer, they must rely on scientists. That will make civilians pin their ideal of longevity on science. So when a promising talent, a scientist or a scientific researcher appears in the civilian home, they will not hate him, but pin their hopes on him.
Of course, the new government must also guide it, starting from social opinion, values and other aspects.
Admittedly, this method is not perfect, but there is no perfect system in the world. There are only whether it is suitable for the current social environment, and it is necessary to keep pace with the times and make repairs.
As Wang Anshi said, literature is written for the times.
The same is true for rules and regulations.
In the past history, human beings have never had such a great abundance of materials as now, so all the discussions in these meetings are crossing the river by feeling the stones.
After some discussion, many practical rules of strong artificial intelligence have gradually taken shape, and at this time, a military person suddenly asked a question about the fleet.
He looked at Yue Yuan and said, "General Yue, as you said before, every manned warship is equipped with a strong artificial intelligence. Doesn't that mean our entire fleet needs a lot of strong artificial intelligence? Doesn't that mean we have to put a supercomputer on every manned warship?"
"Well, in theory." Yue Yuan nodded and answered seriously, "You are worried about the difficulty of making a supercomputer. Indeed, this worry is reasonable. After all, it takes so much energy to build another supercomputer now. But you may not know that we don't need to install a comprehensive supercomputer on every manned warship."
"Oh?"
Everyone was a little curious when they heard Yue Yuan's words.
At this time, Yue Yuan continued, "Yes, you heard it right. It is a comprehensive supercomputer. This thing is very difficult to build. Basically, it will take countless time and energy of our entire civilization to build one. But in addition to the flagship Tianqin, other warships can completely build supercomputers specifically for military use to carry strong artificial intelligence.
This has been verified by computer scientists. We can do it. The difficulty of manufacturing is much lower than that of comprehensive ones. When the first comprehensive strong artificial intelligence is truly applied, it will not be difficult to manufacture these things."
Is that so. The questioner nodded, and understood the doubts in his heart, but he immediately said, "Then, the strong artificial intelligence on each ship, do their self-consciousness have a superior-subordinate relationship?"
"No!" Yue Yuan answered clearly, "They are only responsible for obeying human orders. Unless there are special circumstances allowed by humans, there is generally no possibility of communication between their respective self-consciousness bodies."
