Chapter 609: Re-entering Nepal

After realizing that they are the same as humans at the soul level, these monks, led by the mysterious monk Taihasa Mondatta, began to seek to heal the trauma left by the "Intelligent Crisis" a generation ago, and hoped to restore the harmonious coexistence of humans and robots.

This is destined to be a long process. Intelligent machines have caused such great damage to the human world that it will take time for humans to accept intelligent machines again.

Fortunately, Mondatta and other mechanical monks have been meditating in a temple deep in the Himalayas for several years. Time is a good medicine to dilute the pain. As time goes by, humans' hatred for intelligent machines is no longer so deep. Whether it is private or official armed forces, they are no longer allowed to attack intelligent machines, but that's all. In the city, if intelligent machines appear, they will still be treated unfairly, with verbal humiliation being the most widespread, and there are many people who point fingers at intelligent machines.

But compared to a few years ago, it is much better, which makes Meng Data see the hope of peaceful coexistence between humans and intelligent machines. If the attitude of humans towards intelligent machines has not changed a few years later than a few years ago, he may give up this idea.

A group of mechanical monks led by Meng Data left the temple, went down the mountain, and returned to the previous route, and came to a country with flashing neon lights and a strong cultural atmosphere - Nepal.

Only a few years have passed, and the rapid development of science and technology has amazed them. In the past, there were only a few high-rise buildings, but now there are many high-rise buildings, all kinds of means of transportation are dazzling, and human diet and clothing culture have also been greatly updated. Everything they see is different from previous years.

They are like criminals who have been in prison for several years. When they are released and go home, they find that they can no longer fit in. Everything in front of them is unfamiliar, including the streets and alleys they used to walk every day. There is no corner that can remind them of the king. Except for some historic churches standing, there is nothing else to awaken their memories of this land.

The so-called intelligent robots have a very strong ability to adapt. After only walking on the street for a quarter of an hour, they accepted everything and imagined the scene of the future when intelligent machines and humans live in peace. That would be the most beautiful scenery in this city.

Their appearance is strange in the eyes of other intelligent machines and humans, but they still cannot get rid of the identity of intelligent machines. Almost no one treats them as equal creatures wherever they go. They can see disgusting and disgusting eyes everywhere, including their own kind. They are puzzled and puzzled. Why do they want to transform themselves into that, transforming themselves into the appearance of human monks, which is a bit funny.

Because there are so many people in their group, they were quickly stopped by the police.

"Intelligent machines are not allowed to travel in groups, let alone form gangs privately. This is expressly prohibited." The leading police officer said.

"We are monks and fellow disciples. Why can't we practice together?" Meng Data asked.

"Don't interfere with our law enforcement, okay? Do you think you are a monk if you put a few dots on your head? Then will I become an abbot if I wear a cassock?"

Even if they are policemen, they also look down on intelligent machines.

Smart machines have the lowest social status in Nepal. The country's open policy allows them to come in just to recruit some hardworking and capable laborers for the country. Smart machines that can only work mechanically, are not overworked, and will not get sick are the best choice. Therefore, most of the smart machines living in Nepal are hard workers, but the remuneration they receive is very little, even less than those who work three days a week and rest two days a week.

Just because they are smart machines, they deserve such unequal treatment. When smart machines express dissatisfaction, humans usually say righteously: This is the debt you smart machines should pay, don't complain, the country has done its best by not driving you out.

In this regard, smart machines can do nothing but work hard and hope to change the attitude of humans towards them through their actions, but the effect is minimal. Their cold bodies determine that they cannot be compared with humans.

All major restaurants and entertainment venues clearly mark that smart machines are not allowed to enter. The only places where smart machines can go are public places, and even high-end and popular shopping malls do not allow smart machines to enter. Most of the activities of the intelligent machines are in the factories where they work and their own shacks.

"Individuals are equal, you shouldn't discriminate against us like this, and we haven't done anything illegal." Mondatta insisted on his own opinion to respond to the human law enforcers.

"You are gathering in a crowd, which is illegal!"

Faced with the tough police, Mondatta had to take a step back, explained a few words to everyone, and then dispersed.

Zenyatta and Mondatta walked together, and Mondatta asked: "Taihasa, what do you think we should do to make the world return to the period of harmonious coexistence between humans and intelligent machines?"

"I think the focus should still be on individual practice. Only when we have enough wisdom, reach a certain level of cognition of ourselves and our souls, and can do things that humans cannot do in creative work, can we break the barriers between humans and intelligent machines and get rid of the label of inequality in a real sense." Zenyatta said.

Meng Datat said, "The method you mentioned will take a long time to accumulate. The practice is long and endless. But look at our compatriots suffering now. Nepal is just the tip of the iceberg. The way humans in other places treat us may be even more cruel."

"Intelligent machines have brought irreparable trauma to the world. It is not realistic to expect humans to accept us in just a few years. We must solve the contradictions from the root. The root cause is that in the eyes of humans, we are not the same kind of people as them. We will be controlled and become emotionless killing machines, but what if we have enough wisdom?" Zenyatta said.

"Practice is important, but we still need to use some auxiliary means to speed up the process," Mondatta raised his hand, "Just do as I say, it will work."

Zenyatta thought silently. He did not agree with what Mondatta said from the bottom of his heart: as long as humans can live in peace with intelligent machines, they can create a harmonious world.

In his heart, this is a self-deception. It may be effective in the short term, but in the long run, when humans find that intelligent machines are not the same as them, intelligent machines are destined to be rejected by humans.

Because by using the banner of harmony to make humans actively change their attitude towards intelligent machines, intelligent machines will lose themselves, and thus lose the ability to think about "I" and further understand their souls. They will never be able to understand themselves as clearly and deeply as humans. They may behave like humans on the surface, but in their hearts they still regard themselves as intelligent machines different from humans, and they cannot achieve the harmony between body and soul.

Zenyatta firmly believes that the change led by Mondatta will bring short-term success, but in the long run it will be a complete failure.
