Start a Subspace

The changes of the times brought about by the "50-Year Development Plan" are still ongoing...

In the 14th year of the Kunlun Mountain Calendar, a large astronomical telescope observed a high-brightness light cluster in the direction of the black hole!

It is suspected that it is a trace of a large-scale interstellar war. The emergence of this fact makes everyone extremely anxious, and they are very worried about the safety of the Blue and Gold Era Alliance.

Zhang Ran and other high-level government officials received an electromagnetic wave signal from the Blue-Golden Era Alliance a month later.

"Human friends, we are still on the road and there are no safety issues for the time being."

No matter what, human beings still have to restrain themselves and develop themselves.

It was also in this year, with everyone concerned, that the first generation of socially raised babies hatched from artificial wombs!

The average weight of these babies is 11.4 kilograms, and the average body length is 72.5 centimeters. These babies can crawl as soon as they are born, have excellent immunity, and through long-term prenatal education, their intelligence is also above average, triggering extensive discussions within Kunlun Mountain.

Various news stations broadcast the superiority of the "21-month plan" and compared it with the normal 10-month fetus + 11-month baby.

It seems...a little smarter than a normal baby?

Since the "21-month plan" has been well experimentally demonstrated, most parents in Kunlun Mountains tend to choose this birth plan.

After all, the first few months after a baby is born are really troublesome and require very careful care. However, older babies born in 21 months are relatively easy to raise, and their average intelligence will even increase by 5 places. They will become the future trend. mainstream.

…

In the 18th year of the Kunlun Mountain Calendar, thanks to the invention of artificial womb technology, mankind experienced a ten-year baby boom, and the total population rose to 60 million.

However, because the past concept of marriage is disintegrating, couples from the Earth Age will no longer have the desire to have children after giving birth to their second or third children, and the new generation has no desire to have children at all.

It was also in this year that the fertility rate officially fell below the 1% mark.

After that, the natural fertility rate of human beings went all the way south and never looked back!

The Kunlun Mountain government has taken several measures to save the fertility rate, but all have failed. So the heavy pressure is all placed on the "new human system" supported by society...

…

In the 22nd year of the Kunlun Mountain Calendar, the light group in the direction of the black hole no longer appeared, and the two sides seemed to have a winner.

On November 13 of that year, the brain plug interface and brain chip based on brain-in-a-vat technology were successfully developed. This auxiliary chip can increase human intelligence by more than 30%.

In addition, what is more important is the emotional threshold adjustment ability of the "Philosophical System of Human Behavior Paradigm", which can be adjusted in minute amounts through brain chips, announcing the arrival of a new era.

"The brain waves are normal...the heartbeat is normal...the blood circulation is normal."

"3,000 brain nodes are being detected... and the current bioelectrical signals are normal."

"He'll wake up soon."

"Well……"

The first human experimenter is named "Ding Yiwei", an expert in the field of artificial intelligence and neural networks. He is in a very strange state of confusion. The whole world seems to be clearer and completely different from the past world. Same.

He opened his eyes and saw the familiar ceiling above his head, with life and health monitoring equipment placed on the bedside table. There were many doctors wearing white coats smiling at him.

Is this...a hospital?

Wait... was the operation successful? A lot of memories came to his mind, and he turned his head again and looked at the light on the ceiling.

infrared? UV rays?

One of his eyes has been transformed into a bionic eye, which can see more and more "light", and can even see the gradual death of bacteria under ultraviolet light!

Ding Yiwei couldn't help but think about a series of philosophical questions: Is the world he knew in the past really the real world?

Is he in the state of a brain in a vat now, or is he in the real world?

What is reality?

Just thinking about it, my head seemed to turn into a ball of paste, and I felt drowsy.

"Dr. Ding, Dr. Ding, do you still remember your name? Do you know who you are?" The voice of a female doctor came from the side.

"Ding Yiwei?" The human experimenter turned his head and seemed to be muttering to the void.

"What are you thinking about now? How are you feeling?"

Ding Yiwei murmured again: "What is the world? Why is there an upper limit to the speed of light? Why is the Planck scale that number and not this number...Am I in a state of a brain in a vat now? Just like the blue sky Intelligent creatures from the Golden Age Alliance?"

"No, no, no, you're in the real world now, just loaded with brain chips."

Gu Leng

Ding Yiwei seemed to have thought of something: "No, what if I was in a brain in a vat, or in a novel? It is impossible for me to discover this fact."

"These are some ideas I had when I was young, but now these inspirations burst out suddenly, making me addicted to them." Ding Yiwei became more and more excited, and his whole face turned rosy. If it weren't for his physical condition, Weakened, he wanted to jump up and record these inspirations in the computer.

"What's going on with this guy..." Zhang Ran was observing all this outside the glass window.

This is the first time that humans have used brain chip-related technology, and it has changed their thinking to a certain extent. He can't help but feel anxious, "Is this guy crazy?"

"Not crazy...probably not crazy..." Standing next to him was the chief scientist "Lin Qiuyue", a simulated robot that was almost unrecognizable to others.

"He just adjusted his curiosity and desire to explore through the brain chip. He has not adapted to that process yet."

All the doctors in the ward were also frightened by Ding Yiwei's fanaticism. If you adjust your curiosity, will there be so many random thoughts?

It took more than half an hour before Ding Yiwei gradually calmed down from his wild thoughts. He was completely weak and lay on the bed breathing heavily.

He raised his hands with great effort.

As a scientist in his sixties, he was once full of yearning for exploring the unknown.

Scientific career is sacred and full of passion to him. He can stay up all night and do liver-breaking experiments, without sleeping all day and night!

Being able to program like crazy in front of the computer for a week just to see the results immediately!

But as time goes by, this passion will always fade.

Scientific research is difficult and hard, and only a short success can be achieved by countless setbacks. So in the years of suffering, he lost his passion, like a walking zombie, going to and from work step by step every day, forgetting what he once was. Ambition.

It is human nature to surrender to reality.

No matter how strong the will is, it is impossible to change the final result of the loss of passion. It is not easy to maintain a pure heart. The older you get, the less passionate you are.

So Ding Yiwei wanted to go back to the past.

He misses his former self, hates his current lack of passion, hates himself for losing the desire to explore, hates, the extreme smoke!

So he resolutely accepted this experiment. He couldn't stand himself now.

By changing the "philosophical system of human behavior paradigm", he adjusted his emotional threshold to that of his youth.

He succeeded!

When he felt this, the expert lying on the hospital bed burst into tears. He could no longer succumb to reality!

Even if there are difficulties and hardships ahead, he is still full of ambition! This feeling is simply great, as if there are countless inspirations bursting in my mind! Even if these jobs are horribly difficult, so what?

"When can I be discharged from the hospital! When?!"

Ding Yiwei's yelling could be heard throughout the corridor. The doctors had never seen such a passionate patient, and they all looked at each other and tested various recovery parameters.

"There seems to be no problem so far. His brain is working normally and he will not lose himself. He has returned to his youthful state to a certain extent. It will take about a week to regain his mobility. During this time, he will stay well in the hospital." Outside the operating room door, Lin Qiuyue said a few words to the doctor

Brain chip!

Zhang Ran saw the scientist's reaction and kept rubbing his temples. Is this the legendary "Philosophy Tree"...

Is Ding Yiwei still the same Ding Yiwei? Probably so, but his way of thinking has changed!

Future actions will also change.

"It's really dangerous technology." The more conservative Zhou Chengfeng was also observing the first reformer, "It has abruptly changed the laziness of human nature. I wonder if Yuri, the former psyker, specially introduced This kind of philosophical technology.”

"It feels a little strange no matter how you think about it, it's like a stamp of thought." Another more conservative government official also nodded in agreement.

Zhang Ran shook his head: "Conservatism no longer makes sense to us... As long as it is within the human threshold, there shouldn't be a big problem."

"He just returned to a certain ideal state and then fixed it. Doing this... is not necessarily a bad thing, right?"

"have no idea."

It is very dangerous to control one's own way of thinking. If you are not careful, you may lose control and make people crazy.

However, in this era, it doesn’t seem strange. What if I become a better version of myself?

How many people hate themselves now?

This can even be called a new era of freedom!

People who accept it are flocking to this technology, while people who don't accept it always find it strange and completely unacceptable.
