Overturned Tower

"No wonder…"

"Detective" murmured.

He was a little surprised before, why Shenzhi Heavy Industry's prosthetic body thinking is so strange.

The concept held by his mentor Sally Ruth, in Russell's view, is already quite correct - relying on but not relying on, using the power of the prosthetic body but not forgetting the reality and indulging in it. And the thinking of Shenzhi Heavy Industry is somewhat overkill.

In name, it is "performance first", but this kind of words can only fool ordinary people who don't know how to do it.

Bionics has never been a discipline for the sake of looking good.

If you really want to consider the performance, it is impossible to completely separate from the human body... For example, it is the prosthetic hand made by Shenzhi Heavy Industry.

The resident singer that Russell met in the Hive nightclub before, the prosthetic hand she used was the style of Shenzhi Heavy Industry. It was a ferocious mechanical flying claw.

It is true that it can fly out directly, grab something to bring people over, and can also grab lighter things... But this also makes it impossible for it to have a tactile module and a sensing module. In order to specialize the grasping ability and improve the success rate of capture, it is naturally difficult to complete the fine work that requires finger division.

And Shenzhi Heavy Industry has another kind of prosthetic hand, which directly removes the fingers and replaces them with stitches like medical robots. Whether it is precision electric welding or suturing flesh and blood, it is more precise than ordinary fingers. When every minor assembles a prosthesis for the first time, many people prefer to let the old prosthetic doctor who uses this precision prosthesis do it.

Although these days, pure machines can also complete neural connections, and there is no evidence that humans are more suitable for assembling prosthetic bodies than machines, but people are always more willing to believe in such professionally transformed old technicians, as if this is the result of technology and experience. the perfect combination.

Before that, Russell really thought that this was Shenzhi Heavy Industry’s marketing routine—by making customers “look more professional” to seize the market in disguise.

But now, Dr. Paradise's words finally let Russell understand what Shenzhi Heavy Industry is doing.

—Their goal is the ultimate specialization.

For ordinary people, this is obviously impossible.

It is very normal for ordinary people to change jobs in three to four fields in their lifetime. Few people can always work in the same industry from birth to death.

But if cyber immortality is completed, then this is different.

When people come out of the virtual world to work for the "real", they must not stay in the real world for a long time, and they will be released back after working for a short period of time.

The reason why Shenzhi Heavy Industry has always opposed the artificial prosthetic body is because they don't want people to be able to regain the feeling of "alive" through the prosthetic body. I don't want people to be able to live as before they were uploaded after being re-downloaded.

For ordinary people, if returning to reality is no longer a hard job, but a rare time to relax, then the virtual world will in turn become another cage.

"...Before that, I thought cyber immortality was a good thing."

"Detective" sighed, his face was genuinely sad: "I used to really believe in that kind of thing."

Two tears of pity gradually rolled down his face. The white light blooming on his body suddenly became brighter.

This time, his grief was real, not staged.

Long before Russell came to this world, he thought that only cyber immortality and mind uploading could solve all problems in reality—that is, put real problems outside reality to solve them. Realize true equality—everyone becomes a piece of data, which is absolute equality in the nature of existence.

This is also the reason why he has such a high innate affection for the Cyber ​​Church... For Russell, the Cyber ​​Church can also be regarded as his fellow traveler.

But now after hearing the news, he suddenly realized the crux of the problem.

The problem is not in the part of cyber immortality and thought uploading...

The real problem is that the server that accommodates the "soul" is not under the control of the individual. And never will be... because it can't be all things to all people.

Even if everyone uploads to the server, the server itself needs maintenance. In the end, a group of people still need to be downloaded to maintain the server... And as long as someone can control the server, it means that they can control these uploaded thoughts.

This part of the "first batch of downloaded" humans, they can do whatever they want with these "souls".

For those who have not been downloaded, these human beings who can control the consciousness of others are actually gods who can decide everything. The only thing that can stop these gods from doing anything wrong is the illusory "morality" and "self-esteem".

"Come on, detective..."

Although Dr. Paradise also knows that this old friend is indeed a tear-prone character.

But after more than ten years of absence, when we met again and saw him cry out of compassion again, I couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable in my heart.

The old man sighed: "There is nothing wrong with technology, what is wrong is the greed of people.

"I believe that the vast majority of people in the church are working hard to achieve eternal happiness in the 'Holy Code' server."

"Of course, I also believe that ... if they are called to come back to reality and do some short-term work that robots can't do, they will definitely accept it."

The detective sighed slowly: "When people really live in a comfortable and happy world, hostility and evil thoughts will be gradually worn away. After they are satisfied, they will want to help others...so labor becomes a kind of happiness.

"But when everyone is kind, the only person with evil thoughts can manipulate the fate of these people at will. People living inside the server cannot give any feedback to the outside world... In a sense, they are just Imprisoned forever."

Even if it is unlimited monthly reading, at least it can still keep a body in reality.

If it is true that cyber is immortal, the body must be abandoned. The remaining body will be used as a precious material for production or research.

“…but I certainly wouldn’t say it’s a technical problem.

"—If people can download back to their real bodies again, or when they download their consciousness, they can truly perceive the real world...When people have the right to enter the cyber world at any time, they also have the power to leave the cyber world at any time The power ~www.readwn.com~ This can be regarded as real, free eternal life.”

"But that's impossible."

Hang Hang interrupted coldly: "As long as one person chooses to betray, all previous efforts will be in vain.

"It seems that this traitor has already appeared. But the church... huh. It seems that the church has not turned back."

he sarcastically said.

Knowing that the purpose of Shenzhi Heavy Industry is to control all humans through cyber immortality—turning living humans into livestock resources, the church has not terminated their cooperation, and is still relying on Shenzhi Heavy Industry to research this technology.

This shows that either the church's concept of cyber immortality is not pure, or they have long been prepared to backstab the mind.

"In any case, the church is not going anywhere clean.

"In the final analysis, the church is just another company that is more 'idol'. A company that sells dreams and hopes for a living."

Hanging made no secret of his dissatisfaction and disgust with the church, as well as his suspicion of detectives.

He stared at the detective, and said word by word: "What angels, what priests...are just idiots who help others, or hypocritical villains."

The detective looked up and looked at Strangling.

The tears on the face of the middle-aged man have not disappeared, and his eyes are still so compassionate, as if he can see through the fragility and sadness in his heart.

This kind of gaze made Hang Shou extremely hateful, and just being looked at made him feel like he was about to be unable to suppress the killing intent in his heart.

"Then, strangle..."

The fallen angel who had lost his aura asked softly: "Your master, godfather—what does he think?

"What does he want to change the world into?"
