Chapter 278: The AI Debate
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ever since the Hope stopped in space, the research on AI started in earnest, and at the same time, the debate on whether to research AI also started on the Hope
AI was no longer a siram It had, at the very basics, the ability to learn Even though it had no sentience or creativity, with the ability to learn, it was already the best AI mankind could envision For example, the assembly line on the Hope was already completely automated, but theof raw e amount of human labour as well Therefore, with the introduction of AI, human productivity would increase many fold!
That was the real point of the 4th industrial revolution!
The supposed industrial revolution meant the increase in productivity, like how the introduction of steae ae distances It helped increase productivity!
However, the catalyst of the 4th revolution, electroe in productivity The one technology that would do that and push mankind into the peak of the 4th revolution would be the advent of AI!
The tere in sonetisy source, froest issue of polymerization was its uncontrollability Unlike nuclear fission, it couldn’t be slowed down or done in a mild manner, it was a chain reaction Froen atoe explosion at the end
The difficulty of controlling hydrogen polyy that could control the speed of hydrogen fusion That energy was electronetism, this was the start of 4th revolution The creation and change of energy source instigated the 4th revolution
Just like the first and second revolutions, the change in energy source itself would not cause any change, but the technology that could es For the 4th revolution, that technology would be AI!
However, coine or cars, planes, or ships before it, AI was so happened with cars or planes, it was most of the time manmade, but AI was different With the ability to learn, AI could becoest enemy!
From the information taken from the space merchants, the space civilizations could be delineated into nine levels, with a large gap between each level It could be said that there would be only one level three space civilization a 10,000 level 2 space civilizations However, there was awas the cos At least with current hue of the cosmos was still undecided It was infinite, and in such an infinite space, how many planets could nurture life? If calculated mathematically, of around 50 planets, there would one that could support life Then the probability of life-giving planets in space would be one in fifty billion Of course, at that point, one in five billion or five hundred billion was really moot
In that case, with infinity as the factorial base, even the nuht be a constant, but divided by infinity, it would also become infinity…
Therein lied the problem… Why were there so ‘few’ Level 2 space civilizations?
The low nuh level civilizations could be explained by the Law of Conservation of Life, but ere there so few civilizations that entered space? Theoretically speaking, such civilizations wouldn’t have been affected by entropy of race, and they should even have more than 10 Cosmic Adapters After all, they had just left their hoical
