In such a daze, all kinds of strange thoughts came to my mind, and all kinds of world problems that I couldn't usually understand emerged one after another.
Strange ideas suddenly popped up one after another, and after solving these problems, I felt as if I was a god.
He even developed a feeling of omniscience and omnipotence after becoming a fifth-level civilization and undergoing thought transformation... All difficult problems became very simple. Things that he couldn't figure out now will be figured out in the future with just one thought.
In fact, this is a lucid dreaming state of not sleeping well. What you control is just your own dreams, commonly known as daydreaming.
If you recall these strange thoughts after waking up, you will find that they are completely nonsense, but when you dream, you will accept them as truth.
Of course, there are also a very small number of fantastic ideas that really work. The legendary Mendeleev sought inspiration in his dreams and created the periodic table of elements. The chemist Kekule also dreamed about the structure of the benzene ring, which laid a solid foundation for the rapid development of organic chemistry and polymers...
Zhang Yuan has never been so lucky to solve problems in his dreams.
It can be said that today's science can no longer be promoted by an inspiration or a bright spot...it may very well take ten bright spots, or even a hundred bright spots, to make even a small amount of progress!
After being in such confusion for a while, he had another very strange dream. He dreamed of the predictive mathematics shown to him by the "Abel Ring" of the Hicks civilization when they communicated.
He would never forget that amazing feeling.
In the Gaia school of thought, a particle of infinite speed outlines everything in the universe.
Human scientists once wanted to use this as the core idea to establish a new set of physical models that were different from the current physical model. This ambitious idea was called "meta-electron theory". The movement trajectory of the particle is the famous predictive mathematics. .
Since the awesome Gaia School believes that this is the truth of the universe, then there should be no problem for humans to think so, as long as they boldly overturn the original physical model.
But, it's too difficult…
To overthrow the original building, the premise is to build a new building first, and then lay a foundation no matter what. This entire set of "meta-electron theory" physical models is just like a castle in the air, elusive and elusive.
People don't know how to build a model, how to design an experiment, or how to verify it. Especially the most important mathematical tool, "predictive mathematics," with human beings' current IQ, they simply don't know where to start.
Humans cannot catch any trace of predictive mathematics...
Therefore, we can only put it on the shelf for the time being.
In this way, Zhang Yuan had a vague dream. Human beings have perfected the "meta-electron theory" and can guess the movement trajectory of the so-called "meta-electrons". Even if it is only a delayed guess, all the current problems will no longer exist. is the problem...
That's so perfect!
At that time, mankind will surpass the fifth-level civilization and become a sixth-level civilization, or even an even more powerful civilization...
"Dong dong choke!"
As the last sound of the concert sounded, Zhang Yuan also woke up from his sleep. He found that Lin Xuanxuan was still addicted to the memories of the past, and shook his head vigorously.
"I may have been overusing my brain recently and always have some strange daydreams. Phew..."
"The difficulties encountered in memory instillation are difficult to solve with the capabilities of a fourth-level civilization... How should we solve them?"
Suddenly, a very strange point occurred to Zhang Yuan, like a bubble suddenly exploding, giving him a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
He remembered the "black box hypothesis" proposed by a certain scientist.
This hypothesis believes that a series of difficulties that people are currently facing are all caused by the same black box, which is the key issue of current physical theory: the further nature of the universe, randomness.
Quantum problems involve randomness, digital viruses involve randomness, the self-awareness of intelligent life also involves randomness, and even various unknown endings in the virtual world involve randomness.
In addition, with the deepening of research, people have discovered that whether it is physics or chemistry, after all walks of life develop to a certain limit, they will all encounter this difficulty: randomness.
The "black box hypothesis" believes that this series of problems are actually the same, that is, the randomness problem in the "metaelectron theory". If one of the problems is solved, all the latter series will be easily solved.
Why is virtual world technology so powerful?
The black box hypothesis believes that because these advanced civilizations use theories in the virtual world that are likely to simulate certain key points in the "meta-electron theory", the computer only needs to calculate a complex function string and add the significant digits after the decimal point. As long as it is as accurate as possible, according to this series of functions, a virtual world will be naturally generated.
If the real world is composed of infinite motion of a particle, then the virtual world can naturally be the same.
In this virtual world, there is no need to simulate the so-called four basic forces, nor to simulate physics, chemistry, or biology. The world is just a series of functions. As long as you keep calculating that series of functions, you will be the world.
Since the virtual world is like this, self-awareness is even more so.
In the virtual world, the unknown number behind the running function represents randomness; self-awareness also represents randomness and is also a series of functions.
To a certain extent, the two are actually equivalent!
For example, some No. 13 idealistic worlds are outlined by the cognition of life. In essence, self-awareness is part of the randomness of the universe, and all talents can outline and extend the ideal world...
Therefore, the self-awareness of life can be directly used as the operating function of the virtual world.
"I am part of the universe!"
This was a very crazy conjecture, which caused a huge stir at the time. Many experts and scholars have participated in the vigorous discussion, thinking that they can crack part of the black box.
But as time went by, people discovered that this hypothesis was not of much use. A black box is still a black box. There is no possibility of cracking it. It just connects some unsolved mysteries together.
If humans can crack any one of them, they can crack a whole bunch. But unfortunately, for so many years, humans have not been able to crack any of them. This is an inexplicable problem that people don't even know about.
