Blooming America

"Evolution is like a search engine, but it's not very easy to use. It's not Google. It's probably blindfolded, on crutches, drunk, and has performed a prefrontal lobe white matter resection.

François Jacob said at the Hive Lab conference.

French biologist. Born in Meerte, France in 1920. In 1938, he was admitted to the School of Medicine of the University of Paris. In 1940, he went into exile in Britain, and later joined the "Free France" movement led by General de Gaulle and became a military doctor. In 1945, he gave up studying medicine due to serious injuries. After passing the exam, he won a scholarship and came to the Pasteur Institute in France to study with microbiologists in Lviv. In 1qkr, he obtained a master's degree in physiology. In 19 years, he served as the director of the cytogenetics department of the Pasteur Institute. In 1954, he received a doctorate degree in physiology. In 1965, together with Lviv and Mono won the Nobel Prize in Physiology.

The direction of the hive laboratory is for the future life of mankind.

All the technologies here are super technologies looking forward to the future.

Previously, Jacob compared evolution to a tinkerer, not an engineer commonly used by others.

Engineers know their direction-they have goals and plans.

As for the tinker, he just puts the parts together, glued this small piece to that small piece, and constantly fumbled to see what functions might appear, without any purpose in his mind. It's like a **** who writes a book.

After being exposed to the Internet, Jacob had a more appropriate analogy.

The process of evolving this "search engine" is blind and therefore a gradual process. He realized that resources are often scarce, so organisms are always in competition with each other. In the never-ending war, those individuals who happen to have certain subtle-inherent advantages are the most reproductive and will pass on their advantages to future generations. With this method, new species can be produced, with only one imperfect change each time, but the process is obviously not too

Dahana, who proposed the Human 30 Model, also nodded frequently.

Science always has countless views, and it is impossible to say which view is most suitable for human beings.

"Throughout history, only huge climate and geological changes, such as meteorite impacts or ice ages, will accelerate the evolution process in an all-round way. Such changes have created a new ecological micro-environment and provided the search engine of evolution with a brand new one that can be explored. Possibility. This kind of fast and slow evolution hypothesis, that is, the "discontinuous equilibrium" proposed by evolution theorists Stephen J. Gould and Niles Eldridge in 1972, helps explain fossils. A new species that appears to have appeared suddenly in the record."

Jacob came to work in the Hive Lab a year ago.

After getting acquainted with the work environment, Jacob now put forward his own theory.

At this time, Hayflick was frowning.

What Jacob was saying right now was not the main content, and Hayflick was not frowning because of what the other party said.

He was thinking of the point that the other party will explain later.

This view is contrary to Hayflick's idea.

"But in fact, nothing is abrupt in evolution. Those discontinuities range roughly between 50,000 and 100,000 years. It's just that fossils haven't kept these records well."

"Basically speaking, natural selection is a slow game. Of course, an individual may be much higher, smarter, or live longer than the same kind, but no matter how beneficial this mutation is to the individual, it must spread to the entire group. It still takes a very, very long time."

Jacob has now succeeded in getting everyone in the meeting to listen to his own opinions.

"Since the Industrial Revolution, humans have achieved unprecedented control over the environment. The powerful control not only distinguishes humans from any other species, but also distinguishes modern humans from all ancestors. But this is not'evolution, but just The changes brought about by human beings because of adequate nutrition and education. Moreover, because of human medical inventions, the weak are constantly being accumulated, and inferior genes are constantly being accumulated. Perhaps the current situation of human beings is constantly getting better. , But in fact, human beings are already degenerating."

Jacob's point of view caused many people to nod frequently.

"Humanity is degenerating".

People who hold this concept are not a minority in the hive laboratory.

Because of the advancement of science and technology, more and more people with birth defects have been retained instead of being eliminated like their ancestors.

And this "inferior gene", at this time, is constantly accumulating.

It's just that the development of human civilization has concealed this scene, and the use of antibiotics has also made humans no longer care about this issue.

The weak have kept their genes with them, and accumulate more and more, these mistakes will cause humans to face "degeneration."

According to the simulation of supercomputers, human physique will reach its peak around the year AD, after which humanity will continue to decline

Unless mankind has the means to continuously exterminate the virus, mankind will lose all the advantages it has accumulated in the past ten thousand years.

is coming……

Hayflick frowned.

He knew that what Jacob was doing now was just for Jacob's next behavior.

Moreover, Hayflick was upset by the other party's concept.

"The health and nutritional status of the previous generation will determine the physique, health and lifespan of the next generation through the mother’s support of infants and young children. At the same time, healthier and longer life will enable the next generation to work harder and work longer. , To create resources to continue to assist the next generation, and the children and grandchildren are infinitely short.

Hayflick called his new theory "technological physiological evolution".

In short, technology is affecting heredity.

At this time, Jacob was challenging himself.

And the other party is also a Nobel Prize winner.

"However, the new generation of genetic engineering will make it possible for each of us to completely get rid of the torture of all diseases. By modifying human genes, we can'customize, our own future."

Hayflick came up with the crime: "This is an unethical behavior!"

He couldn't let the other person talk anymore, because Hayflick knew that Jacob's theory did not stop there.

-His purpose is to create a new human being that is completely isolated from the current human being.

This had to make Hayflick feel scared.

"When human beings are divided as a group, there will be huge conflicts between the new and the old, which may be more terrifying than racial discrimination."

"A more gentle method is our pursuit. We can't rush for quick success and quick gain."

Hayflick expressed deep concern about this.

"Human beings are degenerating, this is an unquestionable fact, but now human beings as a group do not show signs of degeneration, but it is only a matter of time."

It suddenly occurred to Jacob that when he was browsing the Internet, he seemed to see a web author named Guan Canghai, who wrote that a person can travel through time and space.

From a physiological point of view, Jacob scoffed at this.

If modern people return to ancient times, the antibiotic-baptized and evolved super bacteria they carry may cause a huge plague. If the spread is wide enough, half of the human beings on the earth can die.

This is the result of the dual action of the human immune system and antibiotics.

But Jacob discovered that the speed at which humans discover new antibiotics has been gradually declining, while the tolerance of bacteria to traditional antibiotics has been greatly enhanced, and because of the inferior genes, the current human immune system The system is not evolving, but degenerating.

This is diametrically opposed to ancient times.

This gave Jacob a deep sense of crisis.

Nowadays, as a species, human beings have too many defects. Selfish genes explain the short-sightedness of human beings. Evolutionary medical treatment is actually conspiring to harm humans...

The future of mankind is bound to decline.

There is no doubt that the Hive Lab is studying the evolution of humans.

But Jacob is more radical.

The evolutionary steps of mankind, or the steps of "patching", have become less and less able to match the speed at which vulnerabilities appear. Things will be reversed, and mankind will face huge disasters in the future.

At this time, Jacob suddenly had a new idea-since mankind is about to break down, why can't we create a new type of mankind?

Why not? !

The idea hit Jacob's mind and was overwhelming.

After seeing the current human technology, he knew that this was an opportunity now.

An opportunity that has the potential to change mankind.

Yes, this is his plan. It is completely planned by the Hive Lab and designed for a complete existence.

And at this moment Hayflick ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ also knows that his ideas are being challenged...

And he knows that this plan is so crazy, maybe in the future, it is indeed feasible, but the contradiction between the two kinds of humans will continue to accumulate, if in the end, both sides will become the same. After being out of control, what terrible things will happen?

Hayflick couldn't imagine.

"Why don't we do a confirmatory experiment with animals first?"

It was Jenny who was talking.

After all, I have studied psychology, and a single sentence eased the atmosphere on both sides.

"I don't know how our future will be, but we may be able to carry out some confirmatory experiments. We can save our technology as a technical reserve. If necessary, we can take it out again, how about?"

First today!
