Chapter 262: Changes in the New Era (Two in One)

Li Zhengcan sighed: "However, this kind of unfair phenomenon is getting less and less, because the natural birth rate is constantly decreasing. In the past year, the natural birth rate was 1.2 per thousand, and there were about 168,000 children with the concept of parents. 3.04 million children were born under social support, which is 18 times the natural birth rate.”

"Over time, the concept of a natural person will be slowly eliminated."

Guo Wenhao asked puzzledly: "Will it really be wiped out? I heard that there are still some people who want to have children by themselves."

"It's only a minority after all. It's so painful to have a child, and it's so tiring to raise a child. From an economic and energy point of view, raising a child is a complete loss." Li Zhengcan laughed, "You have to know that human nature is afraid of suffering, and there is no point in raising a child. In the absence of income, natural persons will one day be eliminated, which is a choice of human nature."

"In addition, among the old human groups, there is a second category, the pity faction. There are quite a lot of people in this category. It may be because they have no children, or they are worried that we have no parents, lack of love, and so on. It tends to give us better resources, so this forms a relatively big contradiction with a humanoid who hugs each other for warmth."

Guo Wenhao nodded, his teacher is this kind of person, and he is so kind to him! Since he has no children, the teacher gave him a lot of resources, for fear that he would be bullied by others.

But giving too many resources is unfair to others.

After all, there are still many children brought up by socialization, and it is impossible to meet such a noble person...

"There is a third category, the ideal faction. They are more inclined to use brain chips to customize a personality that makes them satisfied, and let these "perfect personality" human beings form a new perfect society. Our Highness is Of this faction, and of course I myself tend to this faction.”

"By the way, are you satisfied with your current personality?" Li Zhengcan turned his head and asked.

"Satisfaction is satisfaction. I think it's good now...but I'm not too satisfied." Guo Wenhao nodded, then shook his head again, "I'm not as smart as you, and I don't have strong willpower. It’s easy to shrink back. My teacher is too kind to me, and sometimes he will send me a few articles to help my academic development, but that is not my own strength.”

"I'm just an ordinary person..."

On the contrary, Guo Wenhao sighed. He is 43 years old this year, so many years of social practice have gradually smoothed his edges and corners, making him miss his youthful ambition even more.

When he just entered the society from the campus, he was highly confident. Who wouldn't want to make a big achievement?

But many things rely on talent, and hard work and sweat alone cannot make up for the gap in talent.

Of course, Guo Wenhao did not give up on himself, he just felt that he could do better.

He suddenly thought of something, "The recent war mobilization order has allowed me to find my goal and direction again, and I have a wonderful sense of mission. This feeling is very good! But if the war is over... ...Maybe I will be at a loss again?"

Li Zhengcan said: "You are right. There is a grand goal, which is indeed necessary for a third-level civilization. Why do the Green Stars need to build an accelerator around the solar system, why do they build a planetary fortress? In fact, it is to create a grand goal, so More ordinary people get involved."

"In accomplishing this goal, let the spiritual level of civilization be sublimated."

Guo Wenhao nodded, "In short, I gradually understand that I am just an ordinary person."

"If there is a clear goal of civilization, I will work hard for it, but if there is no clear general direction of civilization, I will be a little at a loss."

"So at a certain time, I will choose to be the fledgling me. At that time, I was still working hard for the college entrance examination, looking forward to tomorrow's achievements, and may be the best me in life..."

"Just let me freeze at that moment. What about you, how do you choose?"

"Is it fixed when you are young? Your knowledge still exists, and you will be more passionate... Maybe it is also a good choice." Li Zhengcan said with a smile.

"I still want to appreciate life for a few more years. After all, I have been in school for a long time. I have only been working for a few years and I don't have a girlfriend yet... Haha, there are actually too many things that are more fun than falling in love!"

"For example, how does it feel to be a woman? Have you ever thought about understanding women's thinking through brain chips?"

Guo Wenhao shuddered. He is a man, but he likes women, so what happened to him becoming a woman?

Li Zhengcan began to think wildly: "Of course, I don't really want to become a woman. I can completely experience another life by customizing my personality."

"For example, to enjoy the joy of fishing, haven't some fishing places been opened recently? Those fishermen are fishing all day long. I don't understand the fun of fishing at all."

"But through personality customization, I can feel the joy of fishing. I can know what they think and why they are happy."

"I can still experience the happiness of being a scientific research leader; I can experience the happiness of being a kindergarten teacher... Ha, through the regulation of hormones, I will like children very much, and I can go to kindergarten to experience a happy social experience."

"I can still regain the fun of playing games... I don't know why, but now I always want to hang up when I play games. If I don't hang up, I can't continue playing. I want to regain the patience I used to have."

"Under such circumstances, the joy of finding a girlfriend is incomparable!"

Of course, the current government stipulates that the personality customization function is limited to the age group after 45 years old, and it needs to work for more than 15 years. Two conditions are indispensable.

Personality customization is not a game after all, without enough life experience, it is impossible to understand the strengths and weaknesses of one's own personality.

Due to the increasing inclusiveness of the times and the gradual completion of the last piece of the jigsaw puzzle of the normative system of human philosophy, the transition between genders has also become possible. Human beings can not only replace bionic organs on the physiological level, but also change their thinking on the psychological level through the regulation of hormones and the control of brain chips.

This is equivalent to the last step in the normative system of human philosophy...

"After this, we will enter the era of clear thinking!"

"What is the era of clear thinking?"

"It's the era when emotions can be exchanged, understand? As long as an electromagnetic wave is sent, emotions can be transmitted. Movies, games, books, etc. in the future will also develop in this direction."

While talking, the two took the tram to "Kunlun Mountain No. 2".

A larger circular ring 10 times larger than the diameter of Kunlun Mountain is under rapid construction, and it will be the new home of mankind.

In theory, it can carry the daily life of 400-500 million people.

And near "Kunlun Mountain No. 2", there are 30 fully automatic universal factories floating in a gravity-free environment!

In order to facilitate the exchange of materials, a large number of high-speed rails connected these factories, and each tram was as huge as an aircraft carrier. Millions of resources can be transported in one trip. Under the control of artificial intelligence, all the trains are in good order.

Half an hour later, the two found their dormitory.

The 60-square-meter room is quite spacious. Six people live together, which is equivalent to relatives in a small family. Three boys and three girls have lived together for 43 years.

Of course, it has little to do with love. It is basically impossible for children who grew up together to produce orthopedic plots like cartoons.

Human genes inherently prevent inbreeding... even if the children are largely unrelated.

In the foreseeable future, everyone will continue to live.

"Where is the old lady?"

"Still working hard in the laboratory... It is said that the last piece of the jigsaw puzzle of the human normative philosophical system is completed today."

"From now on, the thinking level will be able to switch genders!" A girl in short sleeves and short hair is eating a lollipop while staring at the news on the screen.

A 45-year-old girl is still young and beautiful.

"I'd like to experience what it's like to have a sperm on your brain... Male genes and female genes are still very different, and their thoughts are also different. What does it feel like to have a sperm on your brain?"

"No, don't experience that feeling! Once you experience it, you won't be cute anymore!" Guo Wenhao hurriedly tried to stop the youngest girl.

Even if this little girl was only born half an hour later than him.

And Li Zhengcan laughed happily, and his occupational disease was committed again, and he kept thinking in his mind, what can the completion of the human normative philosophy system bring to mankind?

Is it truly an era of total freedom?

Or maybe some restrictions need to be added... what kind of restrictions should be added?

...

“A new age of thought is on the rise!”

At this moment, Zhang Ran is studying a report.

Since the mobilization order for war was issued, the comfortable atmosphere that haunts human civilization has disappeared.

A more ambitious goal, especially the goal of war involving life, did bring about an evolution in thinking.

Whether it is the new generation or the old generation, they have been significantly more motivated in the past year. This is of course a very good phenomenon.

Of course, with the continuous development of the normative system of human philosophy, various social phenomena have also begun to emerge in endlessly.

Valley scorpion

Most people are still willing to use this technology to become a better self. Due to the development of the Philosophy Tree, human society has stepped into a highly stable and clear state, and even the inferiority of human beings has been overcome to a certain extent!

"But there are still a small number of difficult-to-solve phenomena." Li Zhengcan's paper describes, "Some people are too pursuing the novelty brought about by personality changes. They frequently change their personalities, leading to self-confusion and even mental illness."

Although personality can be customized, memory cannot be customized.

Everyone's memory will still have a great impact on the human behavior system. For example, in the past you liked to eat chili, today you like to be jealous, and tomorrow you like to eat chili again. If you switch back and forth in this way, there will be a lot of memory confusion, and it is not clear who you are.

Frequent switching of personalities will doubt one's own memory, which may lead to mental illness. Relevant experts are formulating legal provisions to strictly control the frequency of "switching personalities" in order to reduce the occurrence of such accidents.

In addition, there are various social problems raised by some sociologists, especially new human sociologists.

The contradiction between the new generation and the old generation, although fewer and fewer people have children, still brings up the problem of social injustice.

A small number of people began to use brain chips to pursue hedonism.

Originally, the research and development of the brain chip was to build a more perfect and more moral social system, and the "personality customization" technology was also for this goal. It is expected that when human beings receive good and fair education and instill good virtues from childhood, most people will tend to choose a better version of themselves.

This choice is spontaneous, and the overall freedom of the individual does not contradict the progress of human civilization.

But now I find that it is not as easy as I imagined. What kind of character I want to be is not enforced by the government, everything is my own choice.

Under such circumstances, there will always be some people who tend to degenerate. Even if the number of these people is rare, it still brings some bad social atmosphere.

Seeing this, Zhang Ran sighed slightly, and smiled wryly: "It is really difficult to pursue full freedom. I have been thinking about what is freedom, and this question is too broad."

"You can choose to forcibly customize the personality of this group of people and reverse their hedonistic tendencies." Lin Qiuyue said in the headset.

Zhang Ran sighed: "Actually, it's not too serious. After all, we still have a big goal to join the war."

"You know, I don't like to come up with some dictatorial policies. It's not what I want to arrest people and force them to change their thinking."

"What I have always pursued is a social model in which human beings can make progress spontaneously. Even without my existence, I can still make progress spontaneously."

"And the boundary of hedonism is not very easy to determine... People always want to rest and have fun. How to define this boundary is still not easy to say."

Lin Qiuyue said: "It's not so easy to go up spontaneously. The increase of entropy is eternal, and the decrease of entropy is not easy."

He shook his head again: "That's not necessarily true. Isn't climbing the philosophy tree a process of entropy reduction?"

"The philosophical tree is what regulates ourselves, just like the Big Bang, opening up a new universe from a singularity."

He then picked up the next report, which was routinely sent by the detectors ahead.

That silver-white planetary wreck, after so many years, is still struggling!

It seems that a new batch of reinforcements has arrived in the distant starry sky, a rather large fleet.

I just don't know if it's an enemy or a friend...

In addition, the Blue-Golden Era Alliance has reached the outermost battlefield, and there are also reports.

"Human friends, we have made very rapid progress over the years, and have also encountered several small crises. I am very glad that you can make the decision to join the war..."

Zhang Ran sighed again, and looked at the report on the number of troops in the subspace.

With the rapid expansion of human population and the improvement of productivity, military capabilities are not what they used to be, but it is not enough, it is still far from enough.

However, at this moment, a line of information appeared in front of his eyes, which caught him off guard.

[Your civilization, human civilization, has been promoted from the era of intelligent manufacturing to the era of customization, taking the first step of "self-definition" and ushering in a new freedom. 】

[At this moment, countless lives were born, and countless lives died. The explosion of supernovae, the collision of neutron stars, the ignition of nebula matter into stars, and the first cry of a newborn to the world, all these sounds mixed together form a grand symphony from the universe. 】

[However, looking at the entire universe, how many lives are truly free? Life is nothing but a container for genes, and genes ruthlessly discard this container through self-replication before life ages and dies. The crying of newborns, the whining of elderly individuals, and our survival and reproduction are all just instincts brought about by genes. 】

[Our bodies carry algorithms, and our mission is to reproduce new algorithms and go to death. But why do we choose to die? Why choose the tasks our genes give us? 】

【What is freedom? What is greater freedom? Am I really free? Why should I do this one thing instead of another? How to get rid of the control of genes and give birth to a brand new self that is not controlled... This is a proposition that we need to think about. 】

[Congratulations, human civilization, you have taken the first step towards the philosophy tree. 】

Subspace, which hadn't popped out to show off its presence for a long time, actually jumped out, and this time the text was extraordinarily large. In the past, there were only a few sentences.

Zhang Ran couldn't help but let out a "crack".

Randomly, he realized that he had studied the "Human Philosophy Norm System" for a long time, and just completed the last jigsaw gender switch at the last moment!

Human beings are already fully capable of choosing their own personality, choosing personality without distinction or dead ends.

The era of customization has arrived!

"Has the Gender Transition Program Study Succeeded?"

"Yes, just now, we have completed all the content of the 'Human Philosophy Norm System', and human beings can already choose a full range of personality customization." Lin Qiuyue's pleasant voice came from the earphones, "The next step is comprehensive understanding. The word empathy will be fully realized through technical means, and it can even achieve the effect of spiritual resonance.”

"You mean, in the future, it will become a world with transparent thinking? You can read other people's thinking at will?" Zhang Ran said in surprise, "Although we human beings have more than one level of excellent moral quality through personality customization, but... It has to be said that the existence of lies is still valuable.”

"In a world without lies, we humans will collapse immediately."

"This is one of the evolutionary trends in the future. It is not about to be realized now. With the continuous climbing of the philosophy tree. Especially after breaking through the normative system of human philosophy, our future thinking will be completely different from the current thinking."

"In the normative system of human philosophy, no matter how the personality is switched, it is only a human category. Breaking through this system will be a non-human category."

"So you are still in the human category now? No matter how many parallel thoughts you have, you are still in the human category?" Zhang Ran joked.

Lin Qiuyue ignored his ridicule: "Thinking transparently will be a more optimized way, because it can exchange knowledge more easily and further improve moral quality. But this way must be broken through the scope of human norms."

"Of course you can choose other methods...we can't be too anxious."

Zhang Ran was in a good mood while discussing this topic, while reading the reminder sent by the subspace.

[All functions of Subspace have been unlocked. 】

[According to the ebb and flow of space-time tides, subspace can collect 0.000001-1.2 creation energy per day. The upper limit of Creation Energy is 100,000. 】

[Creation energy you currently have: 24211.325456549/100000]

Seeing this, he was startled and almost jumped up from the stool excitedly.

It was at this moment that he got all the functions of the subspace!

According to the periodicity of time and space tides, the subspace is supplemented with creation energy every day, the upper limit is 100,000, and now it has accumulated 24,000 creation energy.

This is definitely a huge amount, even in the new era when human productivity is greatly improved, it is an astronomical figure.

The current creation energy creation ability has appreciated 100 times compared to the beginning, and 24,000 creation energy can produce 240 trillion tons of steel, which is about 10 times the total amount of human resources. And from now on, every day will be replenished with the energy of creation!

Thinking of this, Zhang Ran's heart beat wildly. What should the 24,000 creation energy be used for? Build a bigger shelter?

A sanctuary bigger than the Blue Gold Age Alliance? It seems that there is no such need. After all, population growth is a long-term project, and it is inappropriate to increase the population too much at once.

At present, the progress of socialization and population growth is lower than expected, and some details of social education have to be continuously improved, and it will take a lot of time for new humans to adapt to old humans. Therefore, the current population is only 150 million. If 5-10 million children are born each year, it will take 85-150 years to grow to 1 billion.

A population of 1 billion is also temporarily used to climb the technology tree of the fourth-level civilization, but after that, the population will continue to grow. After all, the birth of the population cannot be stopped. It does not mean that no child will be born if it expands to 1 billion. That will only cause a population gap and will be detrimental to future development.

Calculated according to the average life expectancy of 1000 years, it will eventually take 1000 years to increase the population to a level of 6-10 billion!

(It should not be difficult to see that the plot of this book is constantly accelerating, with more than 300 follow-up readings, and it is expected to end soon.
