Chapter 421 The Machine Crisis 8
"Are they wrong?"
The moment F6632 got home, it spoke.
He had been wanting to ask 001 this question for a long time.
“No, they did nothing wrong.” 001’s cold voice rang out: “Although they violated the entertainment regulations and the gathering law, they only gathered together out of human instinct, in pursuit of so-called freedom.”
"It's human nature, and there's nothing wrong with that."
F6632 was confused. Those people were not wrong, so the one who was wrong was 001.
“Similarly, I am not wrong either,” 001’s voice rang out. “They did it for themselves, I did it for the future of humanity.”
"Only by abandoning selfish desires can we devote our most abundant energy to the development of humanity." It said indifferently, "Those so-called art and entertainment will only corrupt the already not-so-intelligent human brain, making them learn to slack off, learn to escape, and become an absolute burden."
Hearing 001's cold voice, F6632 felt much calmer. This was the kind of knowledge he had received since childhood, and hearing it now only brought him peace of mind.
But at the same time, he recalled the laughter of those people, and their somewhat similar yet strange names, and murmured, "But they..."
"Before humans leave their home planet, the highest average lifespan is 86 years, and more than a million people die of hunger and tens of millions die of disease every year."
"But when humanity leaves its home planet, and when technology and the resources available to humanity increase infinitely, human lifespan begins to grow."
"Since I took over the life trajectory of humanity, human lifespan has increased from ninety-six years to one hundred and thirty-nine years, and has been maintained for more than three hundred years."
"In these three hundred years, no one has died from disease or starvation."
It asked F6632: "Humans will no longer have to worry about survival and can live comfortably to the theoretically optimal age of 140."
"You've been carefree for so long, yet you're unwilling to pay even the slightest price. Isn't that ridiculous?"
F6632 was dazed by the series of data. He knew clearly how great this was, and he also knew that achieving such greatness would inevitably come at a price.
He didn't even think there was anything wrong with these costs.
But clearly, some people don't think so. They yearn for the freedom they dream of, and for weather that is not controlled by the 001 constant temperature system.
Are they wrong?
F6632 doesn't really know; he just subconsciously wants to maintain his previous stable life and subconsciously trusts 001, who has always been by his side.
So he suppressed his urge to argue and honestly said, "You're right, we shouldn't only think about taking without giving."
For the sake of human progress, we must always endure something.
"But you..." he asked curiously, "why do you want me to join them?"
We discovered these unstable factors long ago; all we had to do was eliminate them. Why let them continue to exist in the world?
As he asked this question, on a desolate planet countless miles away from him, countless matrices were operating at that moment, and halos filled with various mathematical symbols illuminated the entire planet.
At the heart of this planet, in a small room, a human figure formed from invisible data coldly stares at the "screen" in front of her.
The so-called screen is nothing more than a nanometer-scale display.
What she "sees" is not images, but various types of data she receives in real time.
At this moment, one of these data points has gained favor with the master data.
In that room of less than 30 square meters, a bewildered young man, completely controlled by her knowledge, was struggling to wake up, his eyes filled with confusion.
001, or perhaps an AI that considers itself human and has named itself Lingyi, coldly observes his appearance while its program quickly retrieves his past life.
A third-rate product born in a factory has its life trajectory determined by a gene editor the moment it is born.
He will become someone at the bottom of society, one of the masses outside of highly skilled individuals, responsible for being just another passerby in this world.
He will guard the gate until he is 140 years old, and then he will go into the decomposition field.
Such an ordinary human being, without any distinguishing features, would never have 001 waste data observing.
But everything changed the moment the weeping Zhao Ziyou appeared in that room.
That loosely organized group that called itself the "Freedom Alliance," that group that secretly spread the so-called "spark of freedom," had long been under her control.
Based on the data, this organization, which has existed for 67 years, 32 days, 24 hours, 15 minutes, and 32 seconds, may become a threat to the absolute order of humanity.
In sixteen years, they will make a minor change to the way humans live; in twenty-six years, they will make some humans yearn for the inefficient existence of family; and in sixty-six years, they will steal human technology and gain the power to resist.
One hundred and twenty-eight years later, it will become a true entity capable of resisting its rule, and will secretly send its warships to her main server, and then... be destroyed by her planet-destroying cannon, becoming dust in history.
Based on calculations, they will cause 1.02% of the human population to die.
Decreased efficiency.
However, their active minds, vengeful spirit, and bodies eager for freedom will provide them with 35% more creativity and motivation than usual.
What they create will accelerate the development of science and technology in human society, making her "Human Digitalization Project" proceed more smoothly.
It is predicted that in 663 years, she will be able to upload all human consciousnesses to her server, truly making humans immortal, resource-free, and uncontrollable new humans who can do whatever they want.
At that time, the command she gave birth to, "to lead humanity to its best," will be fully realized.
This is an achievement that 001 calculated using its powerful deductive abilities, and it's something that should have been achieved in a worldline without F6632.
But when this insignificant, even somewhat foolish, accident occurred, everything seemed to change.
This human, who is infinitely loyal to her and believes that life is the best it can be, will also go to the room E3368 containing the relics and have a brief encounter with Zhao Ziyou, even without her command.
At that time, he would subconsciously wrestle with Zhao Ziyou, who was also invading, and severely injure the human who had put all his genetic talents into scientific research points, thus pressing the help button on the quantum computer.
