Transform into a fairy girl

"Teacher Luo, I don't quite understand the introduction to the virtual nervous system of artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence is just an intelligent program based on silicon elements. Why do we need to add a complex project like a virtual nervous system?

In that case, wouldn't it further complicate the already difficult artificial intelligence program?" Ji Ran asked with some confusion.

Teacher Luo was very satisfied with Ji Ran's question, which showed that Ji Ran had begun to study this new content seriously, and this artificial intelligence virtual nervous system was the main topic of his research.

"To answer your question, we have to start with the origin of wisdom. When do you think humans evolved from the earliest single-celled animals to the present day and truly have self-awareness?" Teacher Luo looked at Ji Ran asked.

"Well, I think it was millions of years ago when ancient humans saw their own reflection in the water for the first time." Ji Ran thought for a while and expressed her speculation.

"Well, that's a good answer. Although life has flourished on the earth for hundreds of millions of years, it was only a few million years ago when individuals truly became self-aware. In other words, life evolved over hundreds of millions of years. It took time to create creatures with self-awareness.

Then when do you think humans developed wisdom?" Teacher Luo asked again.

"Probably hundreds of thousands to 10,000+ years ago, when ancient humans began to hunt collectively and were able to make early stone tools," Ji Ran said after thinking for a while.

"Well, there is also fire. Using fire from nature is also one of the important signs of wisdom of ancient humans." Teacher Luo nodded with a smile and continued to add.

"Yes." Ji Ran nodded in agreement.

"It has probably taken millions of years for humans to realize their own existence, then to possess early wisdom, know how to collaborate with each other, make tools, and use fire. Do you think artificial intelligence will be developed in just a few decades?" Can self-awareness and wisdom be produced in time?" Teacher Luo looked at Ji Ran and asked.

Ji Ran thought about it and felt a little strange. According to what Teacher Luo meant, it was obvious that he did not agree that artificial intelligence would be produced in the next few decades. However, the current world was telling her a contrary answer. , not only artificial intelligence has arrived a long time ago, but also every aspect of life is inseparable from artificial intelligence.

For example, there are driverless artificial intelligence cars, driverless artificial intelligence small planes, various transportation networks, various communication systems, and even almost 90.00% of the current news is published by artificial intelligence robot editors , it can be said that people are now inseparable from artificial intelligence, and why does Mr. Luo say that real artificial intelligence has not really arrived yet?

Looking at Ji Ran's confused expression, Teacher Luo seemed to have guessed her thoughts, and explained with a smile: "Although artificial intelligence seems to be everywhere in our lives now, that is not artificial intelligence in the true sense, that is just Deep learning, a basic function of artificial intelligence, whether it is a driverless smart car or a smart editor who edits news every day, is nothing more than functional deep learning.

These so-called intelligent robots can only complete one task individually, but cannot coordinate tasks of different natures to complete them.

For example, it is impossible to use an intelligent program on an artificial intelligence car to complete the task of editing news. At the same time, it is also impossible to let an intelligent program that edits news control a smart car.

In other words, each artificial intelligence seems to have the ability to think similar to humans. In fact, it is just a special manifestation of functional needs. It does not mean that the machine truly has the ability to think, let alone the consciousness of self-awakening. .

Our current artificial intelligence is only equivalent to having a body, but no real soul. From the perspective of biological evolution, our current artificial intelligence is only equivalent to the trilobites [-] million years ago. They can receive information from the two-dimensional world, but cannot perceive three-dimensional things in the three-dimensional world. They can only deal with things according to the instinct given by humans. They have no perception, no sense of taste, and no self-awareness. They just follow different Programs do things. "Teacher Luo and Ji Ran patiently explained.

Ji Ran seemed to understand a little bit. Teacher Luo felt that the current artificial intelligence is just the product of deep learning, not a real intelligence with self-awareness. It is like a body with only bones and muscles and no neural network. If you want If you want this life to truly come to life, you must set up its entire nervous system.

"Does the teacher mean that artificial intelligence also needs neural networks?" Ji Ran looked at Teacher Luo and asked for confirmation.

"Well, the reason why humans have developed self-awareness is due to the magical function of the nervous system. When humans are injured, the nervous system will produce pain at the injured part, allowing us to avoid harm in time, so we can compete in the competition. Survive in the fierce natural selection.

Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is the survival instinct of living things.

With the continuous evolution of this instinct, we have developed a true sense of self-awareness, which constantly tells us in the form of pain that we are an independent individual and that we must exist and stay away from harm and death. , and it is precisely driven by this consciousness and instinct that we have evolved until now in the cruel nature.

But now, artificial intelligence does not have neural networks and has no instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, so they cannot realize that they are independent individuals. Only after building a real nervous system for them can they truly Awakening and becoming a true artificial intelligence. "Teacher Luo explained with a smile.

"But what if artificial intelligence really wakes up and wants to replace humans? We are not as smart as them, and we are not as fast as they evolve. If they have self-awareness, wouldn't it be possible in minutes? Can humans be exterminated?" Ji Ran asked worriedly.

Almost all artificial intelligence now lives in the world of the Internet of Things. If an artificial intelligence robot suddenly awakens, wouldn't it be possible for all artificial intelligence in the world to awaken in an instant?

As long as the memory is large enough to hold the awakening program, in the blink of an eye, the entire world's artificial intelligence will probably switch sides in an instant.

If highly developed artificial intelligence feels that humans will only consume resources and have no value in existence, will they make the most rational decision to erase humans from the world?

This may not be impossible
