Chapter 392 Quantum Thinking and Intuition



After teasing the fat man, Chen Feng was in a good mood.

Even Lai En beside him smiled knowingly.

Ou Junlang is not really such a loser. He is quite talented in singing.

As for other aspects, it is really hard to say.

Chen Feng felt strange.

Because the fat man is only stupid on the surface, but his brain is still quite useful. When dealing with Zhou A, the fat man's tricks really shocked Chen Feng, but he didn't know why he couldn't do anything.

Maybe this is fate. The starting line of life is the end point of others, which exhausted his luck in life.

Maybe this is fate.

Ignoring the fat man, Chen Feng chatted with Lai En again.

The two first talked about the recent situation of Xingfeng Research Institute.

"Those people haven't come to cause trouble, right?"

"No. It was all over this morning." Ryan nodded, "Actually, President Ou is in charge of these things. I didn't get involved much. You know, I'm not very good at dealing with these."

Chen Feng smiled and said, "With your brain, if you want to learn, there should be nothing in this world that you can't learn. The so-called essence of politics is actually still about psychology and statistics."

"If you don't like it, then there's no point in learning it. No matter how hard I think about it, I'm not as good as some natural politicians. The so-called political sense depends partly on experience and partly on intuition, and some people are naturally good at it."

Chen Feng nodded, "So this is the incredible thing about humans. Intuition is very important, and it allows us to do things beyond our capabilities."

Ryan: "For example, defeating alien invaders that were impossible to defeat?"

"Yes."

Ryan sat down next to him, "Then what do you think intuition is?"

Chen Feng: "Let's first speculate what human thinking is. The ancients thought it was the soul, the immortals talked about consciousness, and the top programmers believed that thinking was a particularly complex process. Of course, in the 21st century, some people also believed that human thinking is actually the quantum collapse in phosphorus atoms."

Ryan: "I am more in favor of the last statement, but this is more metaphysical and cannot be proven conclusively. At the same time, this also denies the feasibility of another technology that many people are dreaming of now, that is, mind transfer and mechanical immortality."

"I tend to agree with this statement. Because a thousand years later, I saw a more specific statement, which is much more complicated than the simple quantum collapse of phosphorus atoms. Countless ultra-low energy quantum collapses are aggregated to form a quantum thought storm. The essence of our thinking is a quantum storm that is both regular and irregular. Our memory is the more regular part of the quantum storm, and our temporary divergent thoughts are the irregular part."

"Neither part can exist independently, and they must rely on each other to be considered a complete person. When we learn new knowledge, the quantum storm in the brain is irregular at first. But through training and memory enhancement, the originally irregular quantum storm begins to show certain regularities, and then memories are formed. Of course, memories will also be forgotten. The reason for forgetting is that the quantum itself tends to be irregular. The forcibly kneaded regularities can be maintained for a certain period of time, but the tendency from order to disorder cannot be stopped."

Ryan, "But we can also learn again and work hard to improve our memory. Repeated use in life to re-consolidate the law."

Chen Feng nodded, "Yes. We can regard our fragmented memories as small vortices that make up quantum storms. Due to the differences in what they have learned and the scope of their involvement, these small vortices will belong to the same type, and will form some vague connections with each other. Usually it is difficult for us to realize this connection, but at certain specific moments, when our emotions have a special desire for something, the desire to solve the problem will become a driving force, and let this larger law emerge naturally, which becomes our intuition."

Ryan: "So you think intuition should be based on a relatively complete knowledge system?"

"Of course. Let me give you an example. Top programmers are usually very smart people, but if you let them do the work of a carpenter, they will not be able to think of a solution to a difficult problem. But if they are carpenters, they can solve the problem with a flash of inspiration. Conversely, if you let a top carpenter do programming, even if he has learned a little basic knowledge, he will not be able to come up with a solution when faced with something outside his knowledge framework. Even if a programmer has never learned it, he can rely on the accumulation of knowledge in related fields to complete a self-divergence."

Ryan: "So the mystery of human beings lies in intuition? We can always do things beyond our original abilities, which makes our upper limit infinitely high. So compound eye civilization must destroy us?"

"Yes, put yourself in their shoes. Our potential is so strong that even I am afraid of it. But this is only one of the reasons. In fact, the compound eye civilization wants to destroy not only the earthlings, but also other civilizations in the entire galaxy."

Ryan: "Is that so? Let them go?"

"Raise them in captivity."

"How far is it usually kept in captivity?"

Chen Feng thought for a moment, "I can't be 100% sure about this. You all know about the solar system barrier, right? I speculate that if it is a civilization that was blocked in advance by the barrier, then they might at least let it go to level two or above, but we haven't seen this. The person who went the farthest only left the solar system for less than 200 light years, and didn't even see the Orion Arm. As for the sites we found, they are basically near the first-level civilization."

Ryan: "I didn't expect you to use the outdated expression of the Kardashev scale."

Chen Feng smiled, "It's easy to understand. You can understand what I mean by first-level civilization as the ability to colonize across galaxies. Second-level civilization means mastering mass-energy conversion technology and having initial contact with curvature space and fine quark control."

"Well, that is to say, the civilizations that can be locked up by the compound eyes in advance will be left alone for a longer time. But they only have one shield, so most of them disappear before the interstellar voyage."

"Yes."

Fatty Ou, who was confused by what he heard, finally got a word in, "Then I don't think they are that vicious. They can let humans develop for so long."

Chen Feng rolled his eyes, "You know shit. When the earthlings were first targeted, according to the normal speed of development, they would still be at least nearly a thousand years away from the interstellar voyage."

Fatty: "Then it's normal for them to lock us up in advance."

Chen Feng did not deny this, "Shut up, normal shit! They have no intention of leaving us any relics!"

Regarding this matter, the Planning Institute in his memory in this timeline had calculated it.

According to the technological level and development speed of the first timeline, it would take at least one to two thousand years for humans to stably realize cross-galactic colonization. According to

the habits of the compound eyes, then humans should be given at least another thousand years, waiting until around 3500 years to put down the barrier, and then harvesting it in 4000 years.

Don't look at it as a short gap of one thousand years.

But Chen Feng drew another conclusion from the feedback from the neighboring star fleet behind him, that the compound eyes only have one solar system barrier.

Then, if we act a thousand years in advance, it would be equivalent to occupying the quota of another captive civilization that is locked up by the barrier and provides them with technological inspiration.

So the fat man's analysis without knowing anything is pure chaos.

"But I still don't understand. If the compound eyes are as cruel as you said, they should be killed one by one. They should have caused trouble for us in ancient times."

Chen Feng continued to roll his eyes, "Then let me ask you, can the gorillas in our zoo now use stones to crack walnuts?"

Fatty: "Yes."

"Look, gorillas have already mastered the use of tools. Suppose that from now on, humans evaporate from the earth. Do you think it is possible for gorillas to evolve their own writing in a million years, and become the next civilization on earth in a few million years?"

This question was a little complicated for Ou Junlang. He thought about it for about ten seconds, "Very likely."

"That's right. We know that gorillas have the potential to replace us, so why do we still allow them to exist?"

Fatty: "Too weak to pose a substantial threat to us? Everything is under our control?"

"But if one day gorillas learn to keep fire, use wooden sticks to skewer and grill meat for cooked food, and then invent their own writing, using pictograms to record which meat is delicious and how well it should be grilled. Then they also carve marks on stones to record the seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and learn to use sticks and stones to reclaim land and plant seeds saved last year. What will we think?"

Fatty O said decisively: "We will panic to death and quickly make a difficult decision."

Chen Feng spread his hands, "That's right."

"Then why can't the two civilizations coexist? We are stronger, so we should take care of the weak. If we have the opportunity in the future, we can go out, and land, energy, and so on will not be a problem. By then, we won't mind if gorillas invent writing."

Ryan couldn't bear it anymore, and patted his head, "Because humans and gorillas have inevitable racial segregation in aesthetics and reproduction. If we really go out first, the colony will be full of Orion arms, and we can let the gorillas develop, but haven't we gone out yet?"

The fat man finally understood that everything should be done in stages.

Ryan and Chen Feng no longer paid attention to this idiot, and just talked about the future.

Ryan tried his best to avoid exploring the principles, but he couldn't help but be curious about the technology in the future human life that was beyond his reach.

Especially when he heard that Mercury had become an extremely huge star fortress, Ryan exclaimed in amazement: "If Mercury also had consciousness, it would definitely feel wronged. Our descendants are too greedy."

Chen Feng chuckled, "Don't blame others. Think about who should be blamed for this?"

Ryan pondered the microwave power transmission and ultra-high efficiency solar panels he was about to develop, and his expression was a little embarrassed, "That's right, blame me."

The fat man really didn't understand and left in shame.

Ryan continued to speak with great interest: "From what you said, the Dyson Cloud will be built many years after my death,

right?" "Yes."

"Alas, I really don't want to accept this. Is there any way to make us move faster so that I can see that day in my lifetime? I also want to die in space like you."

Chen Feng thought for a while before saying: "Continuing to accelerate the progress of civilization is indeed my goal. As for whether what you said can be realized, it is hard to say."

Ryan suddenly became very serious, "Then we must seriously solve a big problem."

Chen Feng knew what he was talking about.

The conflict between the two major ideologies in the world today must be resolved, and unfairness and exploitation must be eliminated at a faster speed, and the speed at which human beings are twisted into a rope must be accelerated.

Of course, this was also mentioned in the Plan.

The way the Plan achieved the unity of the community of destiny was to use his personal reputation to overwhelm everything and eventually eliminate strong differences.

Chen Feng did not quite agree with this central idea.

He believed that if he really did it this way, what was waiting for him in the 31st century would no longer be a cocoon of thoughts, but a cage.
