How does the human brain work? How to recognize certain concepts? How do you perceive the world?

Some neurons in humans react to certain concepts. In an ideal state, in the human brain, there will be a group of cells that specifically respond to the concept of "grandmother"—not "activated when you see grandmother", but see or think of everything that is related to "grandmother". "All related things will be activated.

Whether it is "grandmother's appearance", "grandmother's cooking taste", "grandmother's phone" or even "grandmother-like old lady" can activate these neurons.

This hypothesis is called the "grandmother cell" hypothesis. This is the ideal model of the brain "sparse coding" theory.

Of course, this is just a metaphor. The human brain is actually not so "in line with the theory".

However, "sparse coding in the face of simple abstract concepts" is something that has been observed through experiments.

When faced with complex concepts, the brain will also use "group coding". A group of neurons are activated one after another under a certain concept, forming a "brown scarf, playing with myself when I was young." grandmother".

When processing sensory information, layer-by-layer neural networks will perform feature extraction and recognition, just like layers of filters, filtering information for understanding. At the same time, some autonomously firing middle-level neurons form a predictive coding structure with input neurons, so that when the input information meets their own expectations, there is no need for a large number of lower-level neurons to process information, and their own "expectations" are directly reported to higher levels. The level of the cortex greatly improves the coding efficiency and saves valuable energy.

And all these neurons may also be actively awakened by autonomous consciousness from top to bottom, forming complex neural activities such as "recall" or "prejudgment".

It's just that, which concept is coded by a specific neuron in the brain is an extremely personal matter. Although the approximate location of a concept encoding can be limited to a small area of ​​the brain, the neuron encoding the concept may appear at any point in this area.

The specific information encoded by which neuron is related to the personal experience of the coder, and even to the form and even the momentary thinking of the coder when learning this concept.

So, everyone's brain neural network is unique and unmatched. This uniqueness far exceeds appearance, genes and even fingerprints.

Even clones with similar experiences cannot get exactly the same neural network structure.

The brain-machine barrier formed by special proteins on the outer side of the brain is closely related to the structure of the neural network.

The lines on the brain-machine barrier, commonly known as "brain lines", are also unique and unmatched.

This is also the only basis for government hierarchy and management of asylum.

It is precisely because of this that when two different people see the same paint, they may actually be activated "not exactly the same neurons", resulting in "different subjective experiences."

However, through language and culture, they can point this "different experience" to a "same objective concept" in communication.

Two people have seen the reflected light of the same wavelength, and they may have different subjective experiences, but their thoughts can be redirected to the same concept.

However, in rare cases, two people with extremely similar brain neural networks can directly see the "same red".

For example, the eighth Martial God and Zhu Xinyu.

The eighth Martial God is actually a special product. She uses a special technique to strengthen the Divine Transformation Jingyuan coding activity with electrical signals, and then devotes herself to a memory.

So, many concepts encoded in Zhu Xinyu's brain are also encoded in her brain, and they have similar positions and sequences.

However, the memory she watched is "Xiang Shan"-society and culture define it as "Xiang Shan".

The final result of encoding is "Xiang Shan".

It can be said that although the eighth Martial God is very close to Zhu Xinyu in terms of cognition of certain specific concepts, the final output of the combination of these concepts is "Martial Ancestor Xiang Shan".

In Zhu Xinyu's brain, this is "after some special connection, specialization and degradation, but generally still my own self".

From the perspective of Xiang Shan's brain, this is "remembering some mysterious knowledge, but in general it is still my own."

Of course, this is the state when the eighth Martial God "just became Xiang Shan".

After several years of cultivation and several years of fighting, he has become an independent individual, and the neural network is different from Xiang Shan.

Some neurons are weakened, and some are strengthened.

In terms of internal strength, the Inner Strength of the eighth Martial God is stronger than that of Martial Ancestor Xiang Shan himself.

However, the neural network of the eighth Martial God was developed on the basis of Martial Ancestor Xiang Shan. The two are actually very close, but there are some differences in circuits.

So, theoretically...

As long as this difference is made up, the Peerless Inner Strength of the Eighth Martial God can come back to anyone.

This is even a ready-made technology.

Virtual circuit-use nanoconductor and computer to rearrange the electrical signals in the brain, change the connection mode of "sparse coding" in the hard disk, so that the biological brain can output another result again .

"Pe...r...so...na!"

Xiang Shan shouted.

For him, this is the most intuitive "concept" of the "Eighth Martial God"-a personality overlay.

Through clear language, Xiang Shan gave self-suggestion to his Saussure Divine Realm.

The order in the brain is rewritten by the program, and a new connection is established.

As a mask, "covering" the original spiritual supremacy.

"hahahaha...hahahahahahaha..."

C. Shivaji-21 completely did not understand why the other party suddenly shouted the unpopular term "personality cover" in such a strange pronunciation , And don't know what he has made to laugh wildly.

——This is a...good...opportunity...will...

C. Shivaji-21 suddenly fell into confusion.

He feels his Inner Strength is like clay ox entering the sea.

It is not "the connection object was not found", nor is it "access denied by the firewall".

I have never had an experience before.

He has never experienced this feeling in an internal strength battle.

It's totally indescribable.

This sense of alienation...

——It's happening......

Then, he felt a tremor behind him.

a saber cut on him.

It should be a saber... right?

He has never used his external skills to face off in a serious manner, but it should be such a touch.

But

a saber? From behind? Cut it on him?

——Why?

C. Shivaji-21 turned slowly.

A ranger slashed at him with a sword.

Then, the ranger shook lightly.

The ranger was brain dead just now. C. Shivaji-21 is unable to understand this "rebellious behavior" because of this.

Attacking an officer on the battlefield will trigger the "Supervisor Mechanism".

The ranger has an isotope battery hidden in its body and can fight for at least ten years. Even if the martial arts system is flawed, it must be guarded.

It’s just that the “self-destruct mechanism” controlled by the overwhelming majority of the intelligent system is easily detonated from the outside by the internal strength expert, which seems silly.

However, "Supervisors" are special. It is an independent system, connected only to special areas in the brain. When the Ranger appears on the battlefield "attack the commander"...no, it is in the heart to simulate the idea of ​​"attack the commander", this system will be triggered. It transmits a special electrical signal to nerve cells.

Including the reticular activation system, the ion channels of some nerve cells will be instantly disordered.

The brain cannot wake up properly.

At the same time, this signal can also trigger cell apoptosis.

The brain cells of the whole brain will begin to apoptosis after the subject is in a coma, which is irreversible. No surgery can save it.

This system operates independently and does not accept external information. Even the power supply is an independent miniature battery, which is only connected to the brains of the Rangers. It draws judgments from the Rangers' own brains.

——Why...why...

C. Shivaji-21 felt completely incomprehensible.

He couldn't even understand his behavior.

He actually bounced off his outer armor, revealing the barrel.

He is also attacking his own people.

——Why...why...

It shouldn’t be like this. The prosthesis directly connected to the brain is different from drones, and it is difficult to hack. Rangers themselves also have internal strength cultivation base. Even if the enemy really hacked into their body, they can also use internal strength to resist.

——Am I under control?

C. Shivaji-21 is totally incomprehensible. He clearly feels... his internal strength is still there. His specialized Saussure Divine Realm can still output huge codes instantly.

Then he felt weird for a while.

He was attacked by an Inner Strength. The person who attacked him was Feng Yao IV. should be.

——But...why...

He still didn't want to understand.

Although the two commanders will not die because of the "supervisor mechanism", the Junior Brother should have no reason to turn their faces...

But the internal strength is suddenly voluntary revolving.

Some kind of stimulus penetrated his brain from the input device.

- ah ...... ahhhh ......

repeatedly conditioned reflex in general, C · Shivaji -21 actually completely unable to control their thinking. He broke out a long-simmering resistance.

However, C. Shivaji-21 also understands. In my own perception, this Inner Strength should be aimed at controlling my own strength. But the other party didn't know what method was used, and grafted this Inner Strength to his Junior Brother side.

Presumably Fengyou IV is also in the same situation.

Everyone is in the same state. The rangers greeted their companions with weapons and poured bullets on them.

Feng Yao IV died of a white firework spear. The metal jet pierced his biological brain.

The ranger who started the attack was also killed by the "war officer" and fell into a state of brain death.

The rangers have fallen to the ground in a random manner. In the judgment of the "supervisor mechanism", most of them participated in the behavior of "siege and kill the chief," so they had already begun to brain-dead. Perhaps there are still a few biological brains alive, but there is no battle strength anymore.

C. Shivaji-21 lived to the end. He defeated everyone who killed himself. Several Rangers who attacked him died from the Warlord's mechanism. But he also lost the spider-like docking base, and his whole body turned sideways to the ground like a fallen trash can.

C. Shivaji-21 turned the prosthetic eye with difficulty.

——Why...

——What happened...

He saw the terrifying knight stand up. The knight's hand was placed on his forehead, and it seemed very painful. He picked up a weapon dropped by a ranger—a long spear—at random from the ground, and walked to C. Shivaji-21.

——What is he going to...do...

C. Shivaji-21 has almost completely lost his ability to think.

He watched the knight pick up the metal rod and smash it down.

One click, two clicks, three clicks...

——Why...

C·Shivaji-21 didn't even want to understand this question in the end .
