War Paradise

After quitting the game, Lin Chi left the game compartment, first checked his phone and confirmed that there was no new information worthy of attention, then leaned back lazily on the sofa and pressed the switch on the remote control on the coffee table.

The air in front of the wall facing the sofa suddenly distorted, and a holographic projection appeared. A short-haired beauty anchor in a gray professional outfit stood in Lin Chi’s bedroom, carrying out today’s news in a gentle and calm tone. Report:

"Dear viewers, welcome to the "Information News Express". Today's main content is..."

The post-box-shaped housekeeping robot slid across the floor and handed Lin Chi a bottle of Coke. The "old salted fish" leaning on the sofa squinted at the projection of the TV.

Even he, after opening the "limit state" and fighting with the blood blade of the same pioneer, was still exhausted and went directly into a state of weakness.

Lin Chi had to say that the combat effectiveness of the blood blade was really amazing. Even if he did not release the water in the end, the winner of the duel would most likely be the blood blade.

However, for that brutal murderous demon, a painless game like "Blade" would be more difficult to play...

Thinking of this, Lin Chi took a sip of Coke and focused his eyes on the female anchor who seemed to be in the living room... After two seconds, he decisively shifted to the woman's face.

"Today's headline news, a joint research institute composed of fifteen countries has successfully manufactured a replaceable artificial heart, marking a new stage in the research of artificial organs."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Lin Chi stared at the holographic projection in the living room with interest. What appeared in his sight was a white-walled laboratory with some staff in blue clothes walking around behind. , Don't know what is being done.

With the advancement of science and technology, the brain-computer interface, which only appeared in science fiction before, has been civilianized five years ago. And the artificial organs developed at the same time as the brain-computer interface are also beginning to enter people's lives.

As far as Lin Chi knows, the transplantation of artificial liver, kidney, lung and other organs can already be provided in large hospitals.

Unlike the inferior products that could only be used for a few hundred days in the past, the artificial organs can be used for tens of thousands of days, and they are still functioning normally even if the owner is dead.

With the application of artificial organs, the threat of cancer that has plagued humans for many years has begun to diminish. Even if the organ is completely removed, the replacement artificial organ can complete the operation of the original organ. As for the spread of cancer cells, people have also found new ways to deal with them——

Just thinking of this, the words of the somewhat bald middle-aged man in the projection interrupted Lin Chi's thoughts:

"We have now manufactured high-specification artificial hearts and completed experiments on orangutans. The survival rate of orangutans transplanted with artificial hearts has reached 100%, and there have been no adverse reactions." The man said in English, air Chinese subtitles automatically appear in the middle.

"Excuse me, when will this artificial heart be officially put into use?" the female reporter asked in English.

"Even if it is safe, we still need to perform a series of tests before we can start installing artificial hearts on human volunteers." The researcher explained: "Because the heart is one of the most important organs in humans, testing in this regard will It will be very harsh."

While talking, the camera shifted to a dark red irregular spherical object. The thing connected to the plastic "blood vessel" placed in the tray was obviously an artificial heart made by the R&D team.

"Ha..." Lin Chi laughed.

As previous scholars have said, the speed of human technological development is not a linear increase, but an exponential increase. The advancement of human science and technology can be said to be changing with each passing day. If it had been ten years ago, he could not imagine the level of technology today.

Ordinary mobile phones in people's hands in 2035 will be faster than IBM's supercomputers in 2025. High-quality artificial organs that were once thought to be impossible to manufacture within 50 years have also begun to be transplanted into patients' bodies, saving many lives.

—— Now the artificial heart is about to be officially launched. At this rate, perhaps in another ten years, many critically ill patients lying in the hospital will become semi-human and semi-mechanical "transformed people."

The researcher in the projection was dancing and talking, and his voice was full of pride: "Our research team is composed of technology elites from China, United States, Russia, the European Union and many other countries. Although security tests are still ongoing, But I can proudly say that when the artificial heart is produced on a large scale, with the already marketed artificial blood vessel and blood dredging technology, humans may be able to say goodbye to all cardiovascular diseases."

"At that time, "killers" such as high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, and sudden cardiac death will completely become old legends!"

Listening to this person's impassioned speech, Lin Chi drank another cola and muttered: "In a few years, mankind should live forever..."

——To completely mechanize the body and upload the consciousness to an absolutely secure server is indeed one of the research directions of modern technology. In fact, these artificial organs that can operate for a long time are also products of this research direction.

If things are the same as Lin Chi thought, it would be self-evident what the development team that burns hundreds of billions of dollars a year will do next:

"After completing the artificial heart, what is your next research project?" the reporter asked.

The researcher standing next to the tray took a look at the artificial heart next to him, raised his head and looked at Lin Chi, who was leaning on the sofa seriously, with a flame of excitement in his eyes:

"When the artificial heart project is over, what we will start is the final topic of this research group-the production of artificial brain!"

"Now, some of the people in the research team are reverse-engineering the human brain to study how the brain works. At the beginning of the artificial brain project, we will put our full effort into this research to contribute to the evolution of humans. The last gift!"

"Aren't you worried about ethical issues?" the reporter asked.

"We are not simply and rudely replacing the human brain, but to'upload' people's thinking and memory to the artificial brain. This project may take a long time. We will do our best to complete it as soon as possible. "The researcher completely ignored the reporter's question, as if he was in a frenetic state.

——This product is just like the "mad scientist" in the novel...

Thinking of this, Lin Chi sighed and put down the empty can.
