I handed over to another world

Chapter 476 What Super Technology
"What did she come up with?"

"Maybe it's a synthetic human or a super-intelligent machine..."

"wrong,"

Chen Lin interrupted the assistant and said to him word by word: "This is the precursor technology of positron artificial intelligence in science fiction stories!"

"What is positronic intelligence?"

The assistant seemed confused. He asked subconsciously and received a personal explanation from Chen Lin.

"So-called positron artificial intelligence is actually a fictional science fiction concept that uses the unique properties of positrons (antimatter electrons) to build an artificial intelligence system. Currently, humans only have a rough guess and science fiction speculation about these things, and there are no actual relevant research results."

Chen Lin had just paid attention to information about the so-called positron artificial intelligence a few days ago, and he talked about it at this time: "Positron is an antimatter particle, which has the same mass as the electron but the opposite charge. When the positron and the electron meet, they annihilate each other and convert into energy - this phenomenon is called annihilation reaction in physics."

"The positron artificial intelligence will use the energy generated by the annihilation reaction as a power source for the artificial intelligence system, satisfying the terrifying energy demand for its quantum mechanical calculations."

"In general, positrons can be used as quantum bits in quantum computers. Quantum computers use the principles of quantum mechanics to perform calculations and have higher computing power than traditional computers. In addition, the unique properties of positrons can help achieve more efficient quantum computing, which makes this type of artificial intelligence have many unimaginable capabilities and characteristics after it is created."

"For example, the unique properties of positrons allow devices to complete complex calculations in a very short time. Positron artificial intelligence has advantages in processing large amounts of data and executing complex algorithms, and its efficiency far exceeds that of all existing computers."

After listening to this, the assistant said to Chen Lin: "I see... Then you just said this is advanced technology, what does this have to do with positrons?"

"What technology project is Ellie handing in now?"

"Well... basic scientific research methods."

Chen Lin smiled and said, "I remember the next research project is management-type artificial intelligence, right?"

"There are three options displayed on the technology tree - artificial intelligence self-evolution logic, automatic comprehensive processing algorithm, and special operations computer."

Chen Lin immediately clapped his hands and told the assistant: "That's it, the logic behind self-evolution is positronic artificial intelligence!"

"I was quite interested in this type of technology before, so I specifically looked at a series of subsequent technology projects. I remember that there was an auxiliary fire control device behind the special operations computer, and the self-evolution logic had multiple technological branches, including positron artificial intelligence, positron brain implants, synchronized defense, and something else..."

"Self-aware colony ship!"

The assistant had already looked through the contents of the project team in the technology tree. He added something to Chen Lin, which made Chen Lin laugh: "Yes, that's right, it's a self-aware colonization ship."

“It’s still a basic scientific research method project, but I’ve realized that we are definitely not far away from positron artificial intelligence.”

After Chen Lin finished speaking, his assistant said to him, "But this will probably take a long time, at least five to ten years, right?"

"No no no..."

Chen Lin laughed and said, "I feel that Ellie will not give us so much time to advance the development of positronic artificial intelligence. She will try every possible way to speed up the overall process. Has Ellie also conducted related research projects on intelligent machinery recently?"

"That's amazing, Colonel. Ellie has indeed launched a separate project to create faster, stronger and smarter intelligent machines for the association!"

The assistant couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement. Chen Lin hadn't even paid much attention to the various scientific research projects on Ai Li's side during this period of time, but he knew these things. It can only be said that Chen Lin has a unique understanding of this kind of technology tree.

“Then it all connects together.”

Chen Lin said to his assistant not far away: "The prerequisite technology for synthetic humans is the research related to positron artificial intelligence and intelligent machinery. Once the project is completed, our intelligent machinery will undergo great changes. Synthetics are advanced robots that are stronger, faster, and more durable than most organic creatures. Their neural processors have been greatly improved and have the ability to operate independently."

"More importantly, this thing can be made at will!"

The assistant's eyes widened in surprise. These projects seemed a little far-fetched for him, but when Chen Lin said this, he felt really shocked - Ellie was indeed currently representing the civilization behind her to help the Red Dragon Association develop rapidly. The basic scientific projects were determined within two months, and then various project teams for basic scientific research began to be established frantically under the association's dispatch. The number of scientific researchers required for more than a dozen departments was extremely terrifying.

"But right now, I feel that Ellie would rather create a relatively low-level intelligent machine - for example, the intelligent machine code-named [Teacher] that we saw before. This thing is similar to our teachers. It can explain and break down a lot of obscure basic scientific content and pass it on to our people."

Chen Lin had a helpless look on his face: "A month and a half ago, when Ai Li was setting up various project teams, she asked the association to transfer people over. At that time, the association transferred more than 2,000 people from the Origin Star and Earth. However, as the major project teams were improved, the staff gap was still ridiculously large."

"That's right. A few days ago I saw that the association meant to directly transfer fresh college students or outstanding social personnel to join these projects. We are really short of people and have no other choice."

Chen Lin nodded: "That's not wrong. The overall quality of college students is still good. After a little training and special training, those students who study hard in top colleges can become outstanding talents who can participate in a wide range of scientific research projects."

"besides……"

The assistant hesitated when he spoke here. After Chen Lin looked at him, he continued: "Someone in the association has proposed that we open some of the scientific research project teams to those outside the association."

"Is this true?" Chen Lin immediately became alert. He stared at his assistant and asked, "Have the specific personnel or direction been decided?"

"It probably means that we will separate some of the less important parts of the project team and hand them over to researchers from external associations who have a good or not-so-bad relationship with us. These researchers will also enter the Origin Star to work. They will sign various agreements before coming here, and they will not be allowed to return before a certain period of time or without producing certain scientific research results..."

After a little thought, Chen Lin felt that this method was also a reasonable way to supplement personnel.

However, he still shook his head slightly and said to his assistant, "It just can't be promoted on a large scale. After all, science has no country, but scientists do have a country. Most of the technologies we get from here are basic sciences. If we really let them take them back, it will inevitably cause some necessary troubles."

"But this situation won't last long. The research we're conducting will eventually be promoted, and they will inevitably know about it."

Chen Lin somewhat agreed with his assistant's words. What he was actually considering was the operation being carried out by Ellie. Ellie's purpose in creating the "Teacher" was definitely not for fun, but most likely to use these intelligent machines to mass-produce various types of highly intelligent professionals.

The scientific research project has been expanded, but the most critical part right now is the people. This is really unacceptable for the Red Dragon Association, which has always been known for its population.

Chen Lin has also seen some relevant submission reports about the new weapons research and development institute in the past few days. They have undertaken several scientific research projects, which is a bit torturous for the institute, which does not have a particularly rich foundation at present. However, none of them said that they could not do it. They just said that they would try their best to tackle the relevant scientific research projects.

These scientific research projects mainly focus on live ammunition, plasma projection weapons, antimatter weapons and laser/electromagnetic wave weapons.

Needless to say, live ammunition is of course used to withstand live ammunition in modern warfare. Its design concept can be compared to the spaceship armor in Star Wars. The key content mentioned in this project is the research content related to [reactive armor] and [strong magnetic field], with the main focus on economy and practicality.

The Red Dragon Association had worked on related technologies before, so it was not like they were completely unprepared.

However, subsequent scientific and technological research seems a bit difficult.

[Plasma Projection Weapon] Project Team - The launching principle of this weapon is very simple: create a ball of plasma and throw it out.

The killing principle is also easy to understand. Since the plasma is in a higher energy state, it will undergo a violent chemical reaction with the target enemy. At the same time, it can also conduct a large amount of heat, causing huge damage to the enemy.

Like flamethrowers, plasma weapons can not only burn and dehydrate people, but also singe and carbonize the skin.

Currently, the most advanced and widely used equipment of the association is actually the plasma cannon taken from the Sunshine and the Blue Sea Star. This thing is installed on the Red Dragon. During the conflict at sea, the Red Dragon directly accomplished the feat of 1 vs 13, utilizing the super power and characteristics of the plasma cannon - weakening shields, penetrating armor, and destroying hulls. Ships are as fragile as white paper in front of plasma weapons.

At that time, as long as the Red Dragon launched the plasma weapon with the help of the auxiliary design device, a warship of the White Eagle Association would have been destroyed. Its extremely high destructive efficiency made the entire White Eagle Association stunned.

Subsequent research on antimatter weapons is a complete blank for the New Weapons Research Institute. Currently, human research on antimatter is still focused on its definition. It is extremely difficult to capture it, let alone use it as a weapon.

As a particle predicted by theory and actually captured, antimatter particles are considered a great wonder of high-energy physics. Their well-known property is that matter particles will "annihilate" when encountering antimatter particles, releasing huge amounts of energy in the form of elementary particles such as photons, and their power far exceeds any existing weapons of mankind.

If it is to be used as a weapon, it is not realistic to rely on the annihilation and "dissolution" of enemy ship armor with matter and antimatter particles. After all, most warships in the real interstellar era have certain protective measures.

In addition, antimatter particles themselves require a lot of energy to produce and capture, so the main killing method must be the release of huge amounts of energy and carrier particles. As long as the conservation conditions are met, large-scale high-energy particle annihilation can produce a large number of other particles, and the conservation conditions do not include the number of particles.

In this way, a small-scale "Big Bang" can be given to the enemy ship, which is enough to be lethal.

The relevant principles have been clarified, and the next work of developing new weapons is quite complicated and mysterious.

It is well known that antimatter will annihilate with matter, that is, ordinary matter. So how can we put it into a warhead to make a missile?

According to the systematic statement of the scientific research project, charged antimatter is confined by a magnetic field, and neutral antimatter can only use charged antimatter.

According to speculation, there are only two possibilities for making an antimatter bomb: directly eject the antimatter particles freshly produced by the particle accelerator using an electromagnetic device; or collect them, wrap them up with a magnetic field generating device, and store them in a missile warhead.

The scientific research project directly ruled out the first possibility. After all, antimatter missiles have 100% shield penetration, which means they are immune to magnetic fields - and charged antimatter is also composed of charged particles and will be isolated by magnetic fields. Secondly, it is unlikely to install a particle collider on a spacecraft, not only because it has to meet its power requirements, but also because it has to meet its heat dissipation rate, which is even more difficult.

Therefore, the antimatter missile provided by the Night Alliance is a very magical thing - it uses a magnetic field to confine the charged antimatter it produces and projects it out like a live bullet. Whenever the magnetic field generating device is destroyed, it will immediately annihilate with the missile itself, causing a small cosmic explosion.

Correspondingly, the project also has scientific research projects for defense - refer to the scientific and technological content related to [strong magnetic field defense] developed before, but once you really encounter an antimatter bomb that is confined and projected by a charged antimatter magnetic field, then you can only wait for death.

Basically, if the level of civilization is low, there will be no way to deal with this kind of weapon attack.

After watching a part of the technology tree display, Chen Lin was extremely amazed and could only sigh - according to the humanoid AI Ellie, the universe is vast and huge, with a huge number of civilizations living in it. Conflicts and wars between them are common. Therefore, if a civilization wants to develop, it must take a step out of its mother planet, and once it does, it must prepare everything.

Either destroy others or be destroyed. Survival between civilizations is itself a cruel and bloody law of the jungle.

The Earth encountered these big-name civilizations of the Night Alliance before it even left its home planet, and received all their help, which in itself is a kind of luck for the civilization.
