Dow and Carbon-Based Monkey Breeding Guidelines

Chapter 646 Scheherazade's Conspiracy
Cases exist and are very classic.While it's often impossible to know the name of every creature in the world (not to mention some of them don't have names at all), this surprisingly didn't pose a hindrance when we were trying to implement the Grand Vision.As long as we don't try to eliminate some individuals, "all races and lives in the world" is actually a concept that can be accepted by most wishing machines.

It is not yet clear where the boundaries of this concept lie.Are those simple creatures that we consider to be in their most primitive forms included?Are those "phenomena with animate manifestations" that we are still debating today included?In any case, it does not see any obvious damage for the time being (if we discuss it from a strictly academic point of view, we cannot assert that it is absolutely risk-free. As one of the constituent elements of the instruction, its definition will definitely affect the final implementation of the instruction way. However, we are not yet able to estimate how this effect will be achieved).

This creates an unexpectedly convenient situation, as the individual designations of the wishing machines can be very confusing in a few cases.Sometimes they're content with a rough anatomy and a designation to refer to, and other times they're almost asking you to provide a whole, horribly detailed database (date of birth, place of birth, physiology at all points in time). Model data or even mental activity data, unless you purposely made a wishing object and kept monitoring it from birth, or you used another wishing machine to call the data, otherwise it is almost a project to get these data together. a task that can not be done).

Like many other problems, we haven't figured out the regularity of this difference for a while, but it does make things seem unfair-someone is easily included in the content of the wish, which means that it is both It is easy to be blessed, it is easy to be cursed; and some people are so cunning to escape, it is almost like a wishing machine deliberately pretending not to see it.Such cases are rare, but not linked to the lifespan or ability of the individual, we have a great case between a great Helebo sage and an unusually long-lived common thallus (meaning it seems to have no This puzzling phenomenon has been found in any trait that can be called intelligence, and this commonly used laboratory organism is known to have no complex nervous system.

Although the mechanism behind this puzzle remains to be studied, an interesting conclusion has been confirmed by multiple experiments.We found that wishing machines tend to take special treatment for "closer social relationships".

To give an example we have encountered in the past: when an ordinary researcher tries to designate a stranger as the object of the instruction, it may be asked by the wish machine to provide an entire database.However, assuming that the stranger has a biologically and sociologically recognized offspring, and it is parthenogenetic, the offspring may not need to provide that same database when operating the wishing machine, Instead, it suffices to specify the object using words such as "my life giver", "my ancestor", "my previous generation"-what a convenience!The Wishing Machine almost never asks for a detailed definition of the first-generation term, and that means that all references to people starting from "I" are greatly simplified. It is far easier for "I" to grant a wish about "my" offspring or ancestors than a stranger with an estranged relationship.In practice, this is a matter of the amount of data, but it is also very in line with our simple life intuition: in the legends and stories circulated everywhere, readers will also find that mutual blessings between blood relatives, partners or close friends (in fact, we seem to collected more curses) is much more powerful than Stranger.

This is not unavailable.Naturally, we would think of using this relationship mechanism to refer to some particularly difficult objects.We ask the stakeholder to issue instructions for the relevant module from which to reference the definition of the object, or in fact we don't actually have to have the stakeholder present.As long as the relationship performance is determined by us, we can describe the relationship ourselves.We no longer need to provide a complete database, but say "we specify the descendants\ancestors\closest relations of someone".Through this technique, the indescribable becomes describable.Social connections are wonderful.It's worth warning, though, that this little trick doesn't necessarily reduce work in absolute terms, because even if you get away with defining the real object, you'll still have to define "someone".From experience, it is not as easy as the author describes in this book.You often can't find the person who is related, and even if you find it, you still can't specify it.

Let's take a long-term view, stop sticking to individual relationships, and place objects in groups.That is to say, instead of being obsessed with who the relatives of a specific Helebo saint were, we can directly consider all the Helebo saints as designated objects.Naturally, it also includes the one we want.

This involves another law: we found that it is actually easier to generalize a collective as a referent than to point to a specific individual (just as the most extreme example given above, there is no object that is better than "the whole world"). life" is more concise and clear, and you can publish it directly in natural language).But what needs to be thought clearly is that some wishes are not prepared for the collective.If you want to give someone a gift, giving it all the same gift of the same kind may cause unexpected chaos, the larger the range of reference, the more people are forced to bear the consequences, the complexity of the entire model , and the possibility that it would involve other wishes, which would make the whole thing full of twists and turns and surprises.These risks and messes make this law much less useful than annoying, as if these cunning and fascinating infinite machines do it on purpose.

It's not all depressing, though.This line of thinking may be of little value in helping us solve a specific problem, but it becomes a good idea in emergency situations.Suppose, dear reader of this book, that you have the misfortune to discover a strange and mysterious place during one of your expeditions.You should have reported to the local administrator obediently, but that administrator once bombed your hometown in the barbaric era, so you spit acid digestive juice on it in your imagination, determined to explore the strange land yourself region, and hope to find a super virus that can kill mixed cats, dogs and rabbits there.

If the author is In response to some special requests, the author has to add some morally and legally controversial examples, so the author himself is undoubtedly reluctant, deeply troubled and unable to refuse. These cases are obviously fictitious, and there is absolutely no reality prototype.)

(The author's postnote: Hey! I didn't allow you to annotate my book casually! I will ask for a second revision!)

You risk your life to kill the enemies who are bombing your hometown.But things are not at all what you expected.You are stuck.A monster, a killer, a wild, dangerous, terrifying unknown beast is relentlessly chasing you.Every particle of its hair is like a murder weapon, and you can't do anything with it.In the end, you and it are trapped in a tiny room.You find that there is also a wishing machine that is activated in the room-it turns out that this wishing machine is the source of all the weirdness!And now it's your only hope of getting rid of the monster, even though you've run out of weapons.Your computing power and knowledge level are just enough to communicate with an unfamiliar wishing machine with common symbols, and you also happen to know some research materials on wishing machines that were not made public at the time because you passed by the window of a certain project team every day.

(Note from the author: Of course we know that this is a small probability event, a pure hypothesis. No one has ever done such a dangerous and undisciplined thing. We also maintain all super cats, dogs and rabbits in the world from beginning to end. Respect.)
At this time, you who are smart and flexible may have thought of using the wishing machine to subdue this dangerous beast.But the trouble is that you don't know its species and name, and it is impossible to provide its physiological model and life records immediately and completely, which makes it impossible for you to specify it in your wish.It's already staring at you, making you jump up and down, every limb end or electrical contact wire trembling with tension.It's over, dear reader, and you think it's all broken.What the hell is this thing?Did someone actually name it?Can you quickly draft an article about its discovery and naming before it rushes to tear your body apart, and convince the Wishing Machine to agree that you are its first discoverer and namer in this world?
This is of course a bit overwhelming.But you are still determined to use all the loopholes you can think of, such as you can lock the object by describing the relative coordinates between you and it, or you can ask to specify the person who bites before your energy organ beats 27 times. The object that swallowed you (and caused one of your limbs to disappear forever).That might be enough for you to designate it and make a wish to kill it, have it disappear at the end of the universe, be forgotten by all conscious and unconscious beings in the world, or simply send it to Central City to study advanced knowledge.That beautiful expectation was also shattered.This is an unspecified monster.Its position is erratic, and the Wishing Machine doesn't think it hurts you by making one of your arms disappear (you don't have time to argue with it about the definition of "harm"). Its social relationship seems to be eating and being eaten, and you It is not known whether it actually has biological ancestors.

Then, in a matter of seconds, you will be eaten alive by the ruthless beast.But at this time, you thought of the principle of "collective subjects are easier to designate" of the wishing machine, so you had an idea, and at the last chance, you gave the wishing machine an order: you want all lives in this environment, all lives except you I have become an anti-violence activist in the full sense of spirit and behavior.

Is the crisis over?Yes.Although not quite.If readers remember what we emphasized in the first chapter of this book, they will realize in time that the most important first rule in operating the wishing machine experiment is not to forget to set security conditions and pre-verification.In the example we cite, because the situation was too dangerous, the party concerned left the safety principle behind in a highly tense situation (it obviously did not set up a sufficiently stable and large-capacity temporary memory in the thinking structure it used) ), and that was bound to have consequences it hadn't anticipated.The good news is that it narrowly escaped being hunted by the nameless monster; the bad news is that the brute now forms part of its reproductive system.

(Note from the author: Of course this is still a completely fictional case, it does not involve any living public figures who have made outstanding contributions and are widely respected. I think readers understand this. We made up this detail purely, Definitely just wish there was a better reminder to readers not to forget the safety rules.)
...it's hard to explain how exactly this all happened.We can only make some guesses based on the end result.This dangerous creature prowling the environment of the wishing machine may have some kind of instructions written on it, asking it to destroy all invading objects in sight (it may itself be the product of this wish, because a naturally occurring creature is very difficult to fraught with pure destructiveness as it is).Obviously, this conflicts with "turning it into a total anti-violence activist".Faced with this little problem, the wish-making machine's solution was to manage to add an exception to it—becoming part of the wish-maker itself.

(Note from the author: The focus of this case is how a clever but not fully standardized instruction saved but affected the life of the wisher. Please don’t write again asking what part the monster has become. All in all, it is a normal In this case, the actual part of the person making the wish can no longer be seen, and as emphasized above, this is definitely a fictional case.)
This is of course not worth advocating and imitating, but it also inspires us with several ideas.First of all, never forget the first safety rule, set the protective clause first in the order; secondly, it is best not to set any exceptions that can be excluded in the collective order, because multiple lives are fused together to increase the exception Quantity is the logic that wishing machines often use; in the end, since you are likely to include yourself in the group, you can no longer issue any orders that have the meaning of destruction or attack, and you must find a suitable one that is more gentle. Method.You have to find a way to neutralize the offensive command on the guardian, try to distort it, slow it down or delay it until it is relatively harmless in actual effect.This is of course quite difficult, because the mind of the wishing machine works in mysterious ways.

(Note from the author: This is just a popular complaint, not that the researchers really came to such conclusions. It should not be ignored that they have made great efforts and sacrifices in the long and arduous research work. In the final analysis, we think that everything In the end, it can be explained satisfactorily. At least we hope so.)
How do you stop an object that was ordered by the Wish Machine to kill you, but at the same time you can't harm it (given that you and it are packaged as a whole object)?A more direct way of thinking is to make the entire included group become harmless actors, but this is also a painful price in the long run, and it will inevitably affect the entire life and career of the wish-maker. (Author's note: It's hard to imagine that a person who throws himself into a wishing machine environment will not need to take any violent actions in his future life. The last wish of the group, or the time to delay the realization of the wish of the entire group.However, the instruction complexity required by these two operation modes is much more difficult than the first one.For novices who rarely come into contact with the wishing machine project, the author hereby sincerely advises not to trust the wishing machine in matters of inexperience.Miracles exist, but they are usually presented in ways that create pain for you.

There is one more point worth mentioning about the delaying tactic.The author once read a book aimed at discussing myths and legends from all walks of life.There are a few stories among them, although they are not about the wishing machine, they have inspired me a lot.Most of them are about curses and undoing curses.For mages, these stories undoubtedly evolved from the deeds of certain spells, but they also have the characteristics of wish machine instructions in some aspects.When a person is given a curse (instruction) that will die in the future, another clever wizard (wisher) cannot directly revoke it, but has to distort and dissolve it on this basis.They make the old instruction not be implemented immediately, or put an exception condition for it, a different way of implementation.

There are risks, though, in putting off the fulfillment of a wish for too long.The proof of this point of view is still at the theoretical stage, so it is difficult to explain it without specific examples.Since the Wishing Machine never rejects wishes, but always compatibilizes all existing wishes, setting up conflicting tasks for multiple objects at one time will of course increase the complexity of its realization path.Moreover, when the instruction involves a group, the Wishing Machine will always tend to only use internal elements as much as possible to solve the problem (that is, let the people included in this group interact and realize each other, so that although a small degree related to other orders that have already been issued).It is a typical idea to integrate the guardian monster into an organ of the wisher.If the number of collectives involved is larger, but not extended to the extent of a whole society, it is not clear whether there will be more wonderful specificities.Hopefully, someday in the future, a qualified research team will answer this, and we are honored to receive relevant information.If anyone can provide a case in this regard, we are willing to give full and reasonable compensation as a thank you.
