Ten thousand I am across the heavens

Chapter 591 Merit System
The old lunatic and Princess Shencan also showed great curiosity about the magic weapon with extremely strange specifications in front of them. With the two of them's cultivation level, they can use their own spirit to probe quietly, and they can probably guess the magic weapon's origin. some effect.

"Well... I thought your Mo family would be a...how should I put it? It's a more serious organization. I didn't expect you to have this kind of product." She smiled amusedly, with a strange expression on her whole face that was tangled together.

"Ahem, we will also consider the various needs of citizens to a certain extent. For example, such magic weapons are usually outsourced and handed over to special companies for customization. In industries that have no decisive significance, a fixed proportion of investment is made, but in fact, that's all.

Being able to make the magic weapon so realistic can only be said to be the ability of the company itself.In fact, we are not very encouraging the development of related industries. "

Lan Nuo forcibly changed the topic back to a more serious one. Princess Shencan also pretended that she hadn't seen anything just now, and continued to ask: "What do you mean by not encouraging the development of related industries? Didn't you say that you will be able to meet the needs of citizens?" Satisfied? This should be considered a very important need."

Lan Nuo shook his head: "The desire of intelligent life itself is divided into high and low, and those primitive, vulgar desires will be restrained little by little with the development of the times, or even eliminated a little bit.

Things that we take for granted now, in ancient times, would actually be considered unreasonable and a violation of everyone's freedom.

It’s like it’s impossible for us to see an opposite sex we like on the street, knock him out with a stick, and then drag him home to mate, but this is a natural behavior when human beings have not entered the stage of civilization. would criticize this behavior, and even think it unreasonable to stop it.

I am not saying that human interests can only develop on the road of promoting social progress and wisdom sublimation. For everyone, in the current era, they have the right to freely choose their own interests, but as a guide for the advancement of society , we also have an obligation to let society as a whole gradually get rid of vulgar tastes.

It’s not that promulgating decrees prohibits the existence of certain interests, but that in the process of allocating social resources, the development of some industries will naturally slow down, and actively guide people to accept more positive interests. In this way, with the times People's choices of their own interests will also change subtly.

Of course, in this process, there will always be some people left behind, and for them, we have also prepared an ending in line with their ideas, which involves another system. So far, we have called this system merit system. "

"Public morality system?" Princess Shencan asked slightly, "Is it a system related to the power of faith?"

Lan Nuo shook his head and said: "No, the social morality mentioned here is social morality. In simple terms, it means not littering, helping old ladies cross the road, etc., and in larger terms, it may be to support construction in remote mountainous areas. Inventions create creations that change the world.

This is somewhat similar to the merit system we mentioned before, but the difference is that the merit system is for the living, while the merit system is for the dead.

There are always some people who are unwilling to contribute to the society, or they just want to live comfortably, or even want to be like the ancient emperors, above others.

But we may not be able to satisfy them in real life, especially those who want to be above others. The above is my ultimate pursuit.

Living in the world we are building today, they may be extremely painful, and may even become a factor of social instability and cause a series of damage. "

Princess Shencan nodded: "I can understand this situation. In fact, even if you don't say it, I still want to ask this. If it is, it is very difficult to prevent it. It is impossible to stare at everyone every moment of every day, and monitor all eating, drinking and lassing! Even ordinary people will definitely not be able to accept it.

As for the superhumans who want to cause damage, it is too easy to take advantage of the time when they are not being monitored. Even if you can catch clues afterwards and punish the superhumans who committed crimes, the losses that have already been caused cannot be recovered. , and they may kill tens of thousands of people in just one second. "

Lan Nuo nodded approvingly: "I didn't expect you to realize this. You are right. This is one of the important problems we encountered in the early days of establishing social order. Few people are willing to take revenge on society at the cost of their own lives. But even if it is only a small number, the damage to social order is still huge.

In the face of this situation, blocking is worse than sparse, we cannot monitor everyone's thoughts and conduct strict thought review on a regular basis, that will only make people more extreme.

If you want these people who retaliate against society to give up their original ideas, or even let them actively serve the society, you must let these people see hope and let them see that their dreams have a chance to come true.

In reality, we will not allow someone to be superior to others, but this is not necessarily the case in the virtual world. Artificial intelligence constructed from individual chips can be used as a servant to serve users, and it can give these People bring self-satisfaction, as long as these artificial intelligences are real enough.

And our current neural connection technology can be regarded as quite developed, even for extraordinary people, it can make them unable to distinguish between reality and virtuality.

Under normal circumstances, the permissions of this kind of virtual reality technology are not open to ordinary citizens, and the permissions of virtual reality that ordinary citizens can use will not provide those vulgar services.

Only those who are still lacking in self-motivation and unable to integrate into the existing social order after repeated guidance can apply to open the merit system.

After opening the merit system, when they do things that would have earned merit, the merit will be converted into merit, and the purchasing power of merit in the virtual world will be a hundred times that of merit, and their various permissions in the virtual world will gradually increase. unlock.

In this way, in the real world, they can become qualified social individuals and strictly abide by social ethics, while in the virtual world, they can get what they can't get in reality.

But this is actually a strategy of last resort. I think you should be able to imagine what will happen to such a person in the end? "

The old lunatic seemed to have thought of something very bad in the past, and said with an uneasy face: "Such people may eventually indulge in the virtual world. After accumulating enough merit in reality, they will completely enter the virtual world, and then They didn't come out either."

"That's right, such things have actually happened a lot. The merit system can make individuals who are unwilling to integrate into the society become moral saints when they still have energy, but in the final analysis, their purpose is still the same. is to have fun in the virtual world.

Once they think that they have enough merit to enjoy eternal bliss, they will completely give up life on this side of reality.

Therefore, when we open up the merit system, the target is basically the death penalty in reality. Only those individuals who are potentially extremely harmful to society and may cause major damage to society may be allowed to open up the authority of the merit system, and they have every reason to refuse to use it. , but so far no one has really refused.

For them, this may be a dream opportunity, and many people are even actively applying to open the merit system, but from our point of view, this is actually a long and extremely long death sentence.

It's just that the way of executing the death penalty is very gentle, and even makes the executed feel enjoyable, but it is still the death of wisdom in essence. Those who are completely immersed in the virtual world, do they know their final outcome? "

The two shook their heads. It was hard to imagine what would happen to such a person in the end. They even felt that being omnipotent in the virtual world was not a particularly bad ending.

"The variables in their thinking will be quickly extinguished in this process, and it usually only takes about 500 years in the virtual world before their intelligent thinking will completely disappear.

Instead, they become those existences that are indistinguishable from artificial intelligence. Even if their physical bodies and brains are still active, their every move can be completely calculated, just like a machine with its own With the artificial intelligence of the code, every choice made is certain, and such a person can basically be considered dead.

Because of the same artificial intelligence, we can easily program it. Even if they are forcibly pulled back to reality, it is just equivalent to adding an artificial intelligence robot, and it may be the kind of artificial intelligence with a very bad personality program. "

Seeing the unpleasant expressions on the faces of the two of them, Lan Nuo sighed and said, "So, I don't like the merit system. It is actually a survival of the fittest in society. It removes those wisdoms that have almost no possibility of improvement from society. filtered out.

It's like pulling out those seedlings that are not growing well from the nursery, so that those seedlings that have better growth potential can have a better growth environment.

But in the final analysis, this is a kind of elimination. No one has the slightest chance of making progress, and no one deserves to be given up. It's just that our ability is limited, and we have to make compromises in the face of productivity and the future of some people.

Maybe one day, when we have enough ability, the merit system will be completely eliminated, and everyone will be guided to go up spontaneously and pursue higher wisdom. "

Princess Shencan looked at those who chose to enter the Paradise of Bliss on her data terminal, shook her head and said: "No matter what the ending is, it is their own choice, it is not your problem, if you do not give With this choice, the ending of these people will be much more tragic.

As you said before, no one is responsible for the future of the entire civilization, and you are just individuals in the civilization, and other individuals are also responsible for their own choices. "

Those individuals who choose to enter the world of bliss, their thinking will be accelerated under the aid of computing equipment, and then enjoy hundreds of thousands of years in this virtual world, and finally their thinking is completely rigid, and there is no longer any difference from artificial intelligence.

However, social resources are limited, and it is impossible to support them forever, so after confirming that there are no more variables in their thinking, their thinking will stop abruptly, without ending, like a computer being unplugged. Like the computer with the power supply, everything stopped, there was no dying struggle, and there was no violent resistance.

And these are also the acquiescence of those who choose to enter the world of bliss. Such a death will not cause any pain. Rather, they have already died a long time ago, and now they just erase the reverberation of their thinking.

The Lannuo people know very well that the merit system is actually the biggest loophole in their current social system, not even one of them. If this thunder explodes in the future, it may lead to the degeneration of the entire civilization.

Lannuo can only make people vigilant about this ending as much as possible. Even if they don't create a system, virtual reality technology will also be invented, and virtual reality technology without rules, the impact will be It will be like the Internet that was just born.

There is no basic order established, so that there are too many crimes derived from it. After the development of this behemoth, it is impossible to establish order and let everyone go online with their real names...

If the merit system is not established and the virtual reality technology is popularized first, the possible situation will only be worse. In the movie "Inception", the countless people who are intoxicated in the dream may be the people who shrouded the world at that time. reflect.

……

"Okay, let's not talk about these things. I hope that after you lead the ancient peoples into the new social system, you should be as cautious as possible when encountering virtual reality technology. The more difficult it is to resist your low-level civilization. Individuals, the more difficult it is to escape from the illusory world.

We can open this technology to you, but we hope that you will abide by the agreement we made during the process of using it, and do not open it unrestrainedly. "Lan Nuo's words made Princess Shencan begin to weigh the future development of her race.

And she felt that maybe her own race could be awakened partly in advance, and let them integrate into the Ziwei star first, at least not to lag behind this planet, otherwise let alone becoming an emperor, I am afraid that in the future, even ordinary people will not be able to reach the same level. Can't reach it.
