After I became the infinite flow boss

At 2:00 game time, the entire network suffered from information fatigue.

Although it is hard to believe, this information world that invests all humans in the game does suffer from serious information fatigue.

Seeing this, no matter who is involved or who is watching from a distant place, there is a high probability that they have noticed the highly abstract phenomenon here. Once people think, they abstract concrete things. After losing the basis of reality, abstract thoughts are put into information production two or three times or even multiple times, so there is bound to be a trend of abstraction in content.

The meaning is getting thinner and thinner. What is the point of looking at these things, what is the point of doing these things, what is the point of living...? No, what’s the point of asking these meanings? No, no, what exactly is the meaning? What on earth...what am I asking! ?

At this moment, the thoughts of all human beings are becoming unified. They are doing almost exactly the same things, receiving almost exactly the same information, and thinking about almost the same things. The difference in feelings between people cannot be too far, or even possible. Said, nowadays, people are receiving exactly the same information.

Passivity in general has exceeded initiative. In a highly information-based world, people with low information processing ability, that is, low thinking ability, will be eliminated first and become slaves of information.

Perhaps these things have been foreshadowed for a long time, just as knowledge and skills are increasing, but human cognition, thinking, time, and energy are not even enough to pursue one goal. In fact, this goal is still under the creativity of the public. It keeps becoming distant, and the gap between people has never been so wide.

Cognitive bias, Dak effect, and cognitive dissonance occur at the same time, combined with a serious loss of meaning, and too many players and NPCs are involved in an increasingly downward whirlpool of information.

When new information conflicts with their past experiences, some people are unable to understand things outside of their existing experiences and tend to look for reasons they think are reasonable. However, people always tend to look for evidence to support things they already agree with and resist opinions that are different from their own. At the same time, people who lack ability always like to draw wrong conclusions without thinking.

This has led to a dual phenomenon. It is clear that the overall amount of information in human beings is constantly increasing, but the cognitive abilities of a large number of individual human beings are constantly declining. If there is no discrimination involved and people are classified based on their cognitive ability, they can probably be divided into low-level cognitive people who like to produce information the most, middle-level cognitive people who are silent, and high-level cognitive people who rarely speak.

The development of this cognitive structure will visibly lead to instability and chaos, just as in a material sense, the imbalance of the production structure will lead to a decline in productivity.

So, at a second glance, we can see that people today are tortured by "meaninglessness" and are dragged down by the overall cognitive structure. They have serious distortions in their psychology, spirit, and even souls.

The seemingly frivolous information world can actually be very harmful to people. Perhaps most players have never thought of this possibility, just like most people will not notice the harm of daily habits.

It watched this situation, and when it saw that things were going as it thought, all the way to darkness, it unconsciously curled up the corners of its mouth.

“Have you ever heard the saying, there is nothing new under the sun?”

"No matter where history goes, it seems that there is a huge gap with the past. In fact, human beings are just spinning within their original structure. From the beginning to the end, the essential structure of human beings has not changed."

"In other words, human beings individually are containers with capacity marks. No matter how much stuff is poured into it, the container itself will not change. However, after being used for a long time and carrying more things, the container will have Possibility of rupture.”

It smiled because it was convinced that a large number of players had developed a nihilistic mentality that saw everything as meaningless.

"Have you ever heard of it, the theory of discovery?"

"You human wise men once said that humans have never created anything, they have always been discovering. The material world remains unchanged, and humans are discovering the material world and humans themselves. The so-called information output is The products discovered along the way are then integrated into the collective spirit of mankind to form a common knowledge experience.”

“Different civilizations have discovered things in different orders, which is why they have been combined into different civilizations. The beauty of this statement is that it not only acknowledges the power of cognitive ability, but also acknowledges that human beings cannot go beyond the limits of their own cognitive abilities.”

But it's a pity that not many humans seem to know such a powerful statement. It is buried in the common knowledge reserve of mankind. On the contrary, inhuman beings like myself know it better. It looked sarcastic. Of course, this kind of thing is not just in this game world, it is common in the real world. Not all knowledge can be collected and saved.

How many of the human beings who constantly question the meaning of things have the ability to discern the value of things?

"Quickly destroy yourself, don't waste time. According to your own words, you all think that you are meaningless, right? I also think that the Lord God's protection of you is meaningless. Not only is it futile, but it is also subject to conspiracy theories and bottomless speculation. . It’s not good to live a relaxed life. If you have to pursue excitement and trials, you may not have the strength to pass the trials.”

Even it felt impatient and sat down directly, folding its hands, waiting for the moment when its wish came true.

Game time 4:13, worldwide, the information flow rate of the entire network has dropped to the lowest, people's information productivity and interest in sharing information have dropped to almost nothing.

"It's almost there."

It observed the entire network and knew that the expected peak was coming.

Game time 4:30, it suddenly frowned, and its face was slightly wrong.

"What's going on, why is there no movement."

"Their tolerance is not strong enough to resist my induction, I can even control their body information accurately to the cell, there is no reason for them to escape my control."

It said so, but stood up, with a bit of anxiety in its eyes.

It felt that something unknown had happened, but it was slow to discover it, and it didn't catch any signs of these things.

"There is a mutation."

It turned out a number of events with the greatest spread influence, divided them according to the size of the influence, and tested them one by one to find the mutation. But it searched for half an hour, but still didn't find any mutation.

The players were all normal, except for not obeying self-destruction, and there was really no mutation.

"Brain...did He do anything? If so, where would He enter?"

It was faintly afraid, and its expression gradually became serious. Could it be a blind spot in thinking that even non-human beings would get used to? It frowned and turned to the nearest player's room.

The player was curled up on the table, with black eye bags and a pale face. It was obvious that he had stayed up too late and was no longer human.

This person would not be of reference value. It judged so and soon went to other players' rooms, but it went around and returned to this player's room, but still did not find any changes.

What force is interfering with them!

It was strongly aware that something was wrong, but it still couldn't find a breakthrough.

If this was a calculation, there was no doubt that it was accurately targeted, and it didn't start now. I'm afraid it had walked into a game a day ago.

It was angry and almost got angry, but at this moment, it noticed the player's movements.

What is this player doing?

It approached and saw that the player was flipping through a book. He read slowly, turning a page every few minutes. It didn't seem like he was really reading, but he was just repeating this action.

As for the book in the player's eyes, it checked it out and thought it was just an extremely ordinary book. On average, everyone in this world has read it. It was ordinary. Because it was too ordinary, it was already counted as a kind of daily behavior. This kind of information would be automatically filtered into junk information, so it could not collect relevant behavior data at all.

"No way, could this be a breakthrough?"

It was a little unbelievable, and its scalp was numb.

Then, it saw that the player was not only reading, but also found a notebook and started to write things down.

Damn, this player abandoned the shallow stimulating information and chose the deep obscure information?

Something was wrong.

It realized that it had overlooked a very large content, so it immediately investigated similar situations on a large scale.

Some players were repeatedly brushing what was considered chicken soup, some players watched the same movie more than a dozen times and continued to watch it with relish, and some players were meditating and had not received information for a long time... Damn! After seeing the real situation of thousands of players in a row, it revealed panic for the first time.

"How is it possible? Am I the one who was deceived by abstract data?"

At the same time.

A certain underground organization.

"Yawn~"

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just feel that the wind today is a bit noisy, or the other side of the planet is noisy?"

A few crazy NPCs whispered, and suddenly someone laughed and said: "Haha! I got through, I got through!"

"What did you get through?"

The man smiled mysteriously and said: "The human spiritual matrix, that is, the collective subconscious."

"The dream shared by all mankind!" Someone immediately added.

"That's right! Everyone has a subconscious mind, and the subconscious mind is divided into individual subconscious mind and collective subconscious mind. I just did something to the collective subconscious mind."

"Well done!" The NPCs applauded and asked excitedly: "Then what, how to say it specifically?"

The man patted his chest and said: "People are both individuals and collectives. Any individual's knowledge and experience are inherited from the collective. The meme of the collective subconscious mind is extremely powerful, and I have leveraged the most collective and daily collective subconscious mind! Of course, this is also thanks to the power of that person, not just my own credit, haha." She touched her nose, a little shy.

"Wow! Be more specific!"

"I promoted truth, goodness, and virtue in their collective subconscious mind!"

"Report, I don't understand!"
