Pretend To Be a Boss

  Chapter 205 Origin of talent (first update)

   These words seemed to imprison Song Que's thinking.

  Xi He did have a faint smile on his face, and such a smile naturally didn't have much intimacy.

  Just after these words, Song Que suddenly felt that he was facing an inanimate body.

  He couldn't tell the source of this feeling, as if somewhere unknowable, something like a rule was talking to himself.

   "Who are you? If you're not a human being, are you a beast?"

  Song Que immediately denied himself again:

   "No, you are not Ten Thousand Beasts, how could Ten Thousand Beasts know the Judgment Knight."

"I am Xihe, it is meaningless to entangle my identity, I am here to save mankind. I know your life, Mr. Song Que, you are very suitable to join our evolution zone, because I believe you can bring order to this world people." Xi He said.

  Song Que shook his head and said doubtfully:

   "Since you want me to cooperate with you, then I should at least know what kind of existence you are. You brazenly said that you are the one who created me. You should give me an explanation for this nonsense, right?"

  For Song Que's doubts, Xi He seemed very patient.

   "Don't get me wrong, this kind of creation is naturally not the creation of biological genetic reproduction.

  I also have no way to be sure that I can breed offspring that best fit the prophet's genes.

   But the most critical thing you have comes from me. It is what I have given you that makes your life shine like a legend, and you are destined to be recorded in the annals of human history. "

  When the reminder reached here, Song Que seemed to have thought of something.

   Just this answer is too shocking.

  Li Wanye and Song Gengchao have said many times that talent is the treasure and wealth bestowed on mankind by the great God of Order.

  If the "something" in Xihe's mouth refers to talent—then is Xihe an orderer?

   Mentioned on the stele, does the pyramid exist supremely?

  But why does the Orderer look like a human with a familiar atmosphere, and why is the Orderer in the evolution zone?

  If the Orderers are in Fort Lincoln, if the Orderers can act like humans, then why don’t the Orderers help humans open up a higher pyramid level?

  All kinds of questions came over like overwhelming.

  Xihe could feel that Song Que was being troubled by a lot of unknowns.

  He had an indifferent yet divine smile, but he didn't speak, waiting for Song Que to ask the most crucial question.

   "What is your relationship with the Orderer?" Song Que said.

   "There is some relationship, and I am a part of it. My existence is used to help it compile human emotions."

  Compile human emotions, the combination of these words makes Song Que feel very weird.

   "There are a few more existences like me. We seem to be separated and have different opinions, but the ultimate goal is to meet in one place." Xi He said.

   "They are all in the evolution zone?"

   "No, the Evolution Zone is just a project I am responsible for, and they are responsible for other projects. I will answer your doubts, because you have the potential to become one of us.

  Before that, you need to tell me, what exactly is the Orderer you understand? "

  Song Que was shocked by the identity of this leader, or the significance of its existence.

   Both he and Tang Xian wanted to explore the Orderer very much.

  Why do the orderers want to establish this hierarchy, why do the orderers want to deceive human beings.

  Pyramids can obviously survive, and the mining world can also accommodate non-talented people. Why do the Order make both of them taboo?

  All these seem to indicate that the pyramid is a container for imprisoning human beings.

  And what is the orderer going to do for human beings?

  Song Que originally thought that Tang Xian should be the first to know all this, but now that he knows it himself, he must ensure that he can survive.

   Live to tell Tang Xian these secrets.

  Thinking of this, Song Que's eyes brightened, and he quickly calmed down, following Xi He's question and said:

   "I think you are an advanced mechanical body with intelligence, or consciousness, that exists at the top of the pyramid."

  Xi He's expression remained unchanged, but he just asked rhetorically:

   "As for the orderer's guess, you are more accurate than some other experimental subjects I am optimistic about.

  But I have to correct you, Mr. Song Que.

  Consciousness and mechanical bodies cannot coexist.

  Although under the influence of human’s romantic imagination and sense of crisis, many film and television works have endowed the mechanical body with consciousness, generally speaking, it is the soul, but the mechanical body will not have these things. "

  Xi He's smile subsided, and his face was expressionless, as if he was staring at the world indifferently.

   "The orderer is indeed a mechanical body. Whether it is a pyramid, a trial knight, or the higher-performance mechanical body you will obtain on the ninth and tenth floors, it is the same.

   They are not alive, conscious, or even intelligent.

  The so-called artificial intelligence is not wisdom, but systematic feedback made by constantly repeating a large number of codes.

   It's like the alpha dog who once defeated the top human chess player.

  It is not playing chess with wisdom, but applying countless formulas that have been set. If the rules of Go are temporarily changed, humans can adapt instantly, but the machine will pop up a wrong prompt box. "

  Song Que was even more puzzled, he didn't refute Xi He.

   I just feel that something is wrong.

  If the orderer has no consciousness, then everything the orderer does now should have a setter.

  It's like a super computer, if it is not conscious, it will always be in standby mode. It has no purpose and is waiting for someone to use it.

  But all kinds of pyramids show that human beings are being dominated by orderers.

  Order even created something close to a religion for the lords.

   They called the Orderer the Great Lord of Order. The same is true of the self-proclaimed on the stele.

  If it is true as what Xi He said, then the Orderer, this mysterious mechanical body, has no life and no consciousness, and there must be a person with life and consciousness who controls everything behind the scenes.

  That person may be dead, but the various programs he left behind, like a precision gear instrument, began to rotate slowly until the day when the purpose was achieved.

   But there is another possibility.

  Everything Xihe said was false.

  Even Song Que was more inclined to the latter.

   "I don't believe what you say."

   "This is also reasonable. After all, my existence is inconsistent with what I have explained. If the Orderer does not have life and consciousness, then what am I?" Xi He said with a smile.

   Song Que mocked:

   "Mystery, I know you have great power, this kind of power is not something humans can possess at this stage.

  But as the leader of the evolution zone, I am not surprised that you have such strength. But if you want to convince me to be on the same side as you, you must at least show some decent cards. "

   After a pause, Song Que continued:

   "You have to prove to me that you have something unique to the Orderer. I think if you are an Orderer, in terms of style and grade, you have the value I attach to."

  Xihe shook his head and said:

   "Mr. Song Que, you are not honest enough. It is meaningless to test me or provoke me. I only have a part of these human emotions, which is the purely rational part.

  However, I am very envious of your perfect response. Among the few of us, there was a similar outlier before. He was the weakest one, but he got the best chance. "

   Song Que thought of Tang Xian for some reason.

   This thought suddenly made his scalp numb.

  The whole person is also shrouded in an undeniable but unspeakable fear.

  Xihe continued:

   "The tyrant is the ultimate embodiment of human emotions. In those who perfectly match the evolutionary genes, their hair color will appear white.

  Most of them are born like this, and a few of them are gradually developed when they are young.

  These people have extreme emotions, something we don't have, and therefore they have the strength to compete with all beasts.

   All this also benefited from our research. Although humans of the tyrant species will inevitably appear in the next few hundred years, at least we have advanced this process. "

  Song Que listened silently.

  Xi He was also very patient. If Song Que hadn't been able to perceive the breath of life in Xi He's real existence, he would have even felt that Xi He, who had been in the same tone from beginning to end, was an inanimate body.

   "We envy the ability of life to evolve, but you must know that machines cannot evolve.

  A machine has no life, it can only increase its performance and ability by constantly modifying itself and adding new compilation formulas.

   But modification and compilation are also a process that must be operated by life.

  What the orderer can do is to use the known rules to perform the fastest calculation and analysis of the things within the known rules.

  But if it is an unknown rule, there is no way to calculate it.

   For example, suppose a computer can do addition but not roots and squares.

  Then before implanting the logical formulas of root and square operations, even if it can show a hundred trillion times the speed of human operations in addition operations, it will not understand new algorithms because of this. "

  From the beginning to the present, Xi He has emphasized the weakness of the Orderer twice.

   That is to say, the flexibility and non-existence of progress that the machine does not understand.

  Mechanical advancement and modification must rely on the assistance of living objects.

  Song Que vaguely found the true meaning that Xi He wanted to express in this long passage.

   "You mean, the Order is actually attached to humans?"

  Xihe nodded and said:

   "You are really a very smart person, for this reason. I think you also thought that there is a prophet behind the Orderer."

   "Although I don't believe what you said, but assuming what you said is true, the Orderer is just a machine, then this machine must have a controller."

   "You can call that manipulator a prophet, or the creator? It's the same, he is protecting us and human beings. The technology in the pyramid is a relic civilization, and it is also the last blood of this civilization.

   And this technology is enough to change the whole world, enough to allow human beings to leave the exhausted planet to find a new home.

   But there are also creatures that try to destroy these technologies. "

   "Myriad beasts?" Song Que asked

   "To be precise, it is the Eden family among the beasts. Of course, another force of the beasts is not good, and their intentions towards humans are even more sinister."

  Song Que was convinced that part of what Xi He said might be true, but he must have concealed an extremely important part.

   "If I want to ask about the identity of the prophet, I am still not qualified to know?"

   "You must understand that you also have extraordinary significance in the entire history of mankind, but you can't meet the Prophet. I'm sorry Mr. Song Que. And the order of topics is wrong." Xi He said.

  Xihe's words seem to be out of the ordinary, but they actually have strict logic.

   Song Kuang nodded, and he said:

   "What you said seems like an interesting science fiction story. I think if I have free time in the future, I will adapt it and tell it to my friends."

  Xi He's expression remained unchanged, he said lightly:

   "Mr. Song Que, as I said, such a temptation is meaningless. I will prove everything I need to prove to you."

  Xihe continued:

   "Human talent is the wealth left to mankind by the orderly. But I think every gifted person has wondered what the data they see in their eyes is all about. You are no exception."

  Song Que did not deny it, and said:

   "These data are like precision instruments. The eyes display a species' health, defense and attack power, just like a game program written by humans.

  I did doubt talent, it shouldn't be as precise as a machine, setting various numerical values ​​​​so clearly.

   Talents should be similar to those of some animals, such as heat sensing, air pressure sensing, etc. An abstract, general feeling, rather than such precise, list-like data. "

  Xihe nodded and said:

  “In the world conceived by the Prophet, the whole world is in order, and when people are born, they will be implanted with an ultra-miniature device.

  Through this device, we can complete some calculations in the sea of ​​consciousness, and the images of these calculations are fed back on our retinas.

  Such as credit ratings, financial estimates, hobbies, dislikes, behavior pattern calculations, etc.

   You only need to see the other person to be able to display these things naturally.

   In the face of combat targets, this program can also provide another set of feedback, which can clearly display various combat attributes of creatures through the various biological sensory feedback you mentioned, and accurately quantify them.

   Such as life value, defense power, attack power.

   Of course, these require permissions. The giver and maker of authority is the prophet. "

  Song Que was startled, and said in amazement:

   "This is the... secret of talent?"

   "Talent is actually a term created by human beings later, so let's follow your terminology here.

   Talent is an ultra-miniature device integrated into genes. Its size is equivalent to the size of DNA. Rather, it is an embedded program.

   It is also the greatest research of the Prophet's life - the electronic gene.

  It can more quickly integrate all the feedback in the environment, and perform microscopic inverse operations on the entire macroscopic world. Or, perform macroscopic expansion operations on microscopic things. "
