Ascension journey - 102. Chapter 102

The memory manipulation plan is very important, but it is also very important to start the Yinghuo base construction plan first. After all, this matter can be automatically advanced as long as the shelf is set up. The sooner you start, the better.

In the raw material smelting area of the Yinghu Base, Cheng Bin, who has shut down a large number of production areas all the way, is holding an octopus with various elemental elements that have undergone preliminary smelting.

With a deep atomic level of mind, Cheng Bin can fully act as the source of humanoid industry. The difficult climbing process of the strength and precision of the mother machine material in the earth industry manufacturing is the same as non-existent to him.

Therefore, it is not too painful to transform the overall scientific and technological environment of Yinghuo Base and join Matrix Technology to adjust all industrial areas.

Except that it took a little more time to convert the mechanical design drawings related to the Matrix into the atomic arrangement model on the panel at the beginning, Cheng Bin can squeeze a mechanical octopus out and debug it in a few minutes, and the process is getting more and more. quick.

The mechanical octopuses lay straight on one side of the clearing with their tentacles, and the increasing number gradually piled up a hill.

After emptied half of the raw material inventory, Cheng Bin clapped his hands and stopped working.

The mechanical octopus in the Matrix world is a very good construction worker, but it is just a worker.

They rely on electromagnetic devices in the external environment to move in conjunction with each other and rely on short-range wireless power transmission to provide energy. To a certain extent, they are very restrictive and very fragile.

Don’t you see that in the movie script, you can completely reimburse them as soon as the EMP electromagnetic bomb is fired?

But this shortcoming is also their advantage-they have external energy and mobile systems, except for the control system, the structure is very simple, the requirements for raw materials are not high, and they provide the basic conditions for a large amount of self-replication.

At present, the mechanical octopuses that Cheng Bin squeezed out with his bare hands have reached the basic number that can be self-replicated, but if they want to carry out large-scale self-replication and infrastructure construction, there are still some problems that need to be solved.

In addition to supporting production lines and auxiliary machinery, the most important issue is energy and control.

Speaking of energy, the reason why Cheng Bin chose this place as the new location of the base was largely because of the raw fuel ore needed for cold fusion of nuclear fusion batteries.

However, with the reserves of this raw ore and the production efficiency of nuclear fusion batteries, it is more than enough to cope with the use of the original base, but the supply of mechanical octopus army activities that have increased exponentially is a bit reluctant.

The multi-element mass-energy reactor ultimately used by the Matrix smart program is designed based on the celestial body-level mass scale, and it is also one of the core technologies that the mechanical emperor did not come up with. Cheng Bin only learned about it through some corner records. .

Judging from the corner information, this technology feels quite “hairy”——

Relying on super-large-scale matter and fine control, it produces strong pressure close to the inner core of the planet to promote various nuclear reactions. At the same time, it isolates the reaction zone by relying on the huge substance used as both fuel and shell, and then indirectly converts the thermal energy of the isolation layer as energy. To use.

The principle is not complicated. The technology is said to be derived from the intelligent program based on the geothermal energy extraction technology, but the actual process is very delicate. In the records of the intelligent program, the gadget often fails and collapses and explodes at first. Case.

Cheng Bin, who has not obtained the core knowledge and data of this technology, is rather regrettable. He can only find a way to expand the production capacity of the base.

Sure enough, thermonuclear fusion is more reliable.

It’s just that Mars has an atmosphere to isolate the solar wind, and there is no helium 3 from the sun. The third generation of nuclear fusion lacks fuel and cannot be played.

In the first generation of nuclear fusion technology, the fuel can be prepared as long as there is water or hydrogen. Some areas of Mars have deep and wide ice layers. Fuel is still indispensable, and it comes from radiation, the Matrix, Zhu Rong and other related thermonuclei. The technology of fusion is combined to build a stable magnetically confined thermonuclear reactor without any problem.

The only trouble is that the first generation of nuclear fusion will release a large number of high-energy neutrons. Although it is not without a method to capture and reuse, it will still burn the reactor over time. The reactor shell needs to be replaced constantly. These replacements will still Because it carries a lot of radiation, it pollutes the environment and cannot be reused.

However, apart from Cheng Bin, who is not afraid of radiation, there are only robots on Mars. It should be no problem. Probably…

It took a long time to arrange the electromagnetic coupling and short-range wireless energy transmission devices that the mechanical octopus in the base needs to rely on, and set up a nuclear fusion energy generator named Zhurong No. 1 and a production line of related instruments and raw materials. Cheng Bin started to have a headache for the next question——

The intelligent program that controls everything.

The Matrix has no shortage of smart programs, nor does it lack computing resources. When the productivity exploded to transform the entire earth into a metal planet, they did not see any lack of control.

Although the Mechanical Emperor did not open up the core intelligent programs and computer technology to Cheng Bin, Cheng Bin, who spent a long time in the virtual world and watched Neo’s growth and changes throughout the process, also basically figured out the principles of building intelligent programs.

But the problem also lies here.

It’s no problem for Cheng Bin to make a binary intelligent program life according to the model, but a digital life with complex thinking can’t be constrained by writing a few words like “the three laws of robots” as humans expect— —

You don’t even know how complex data these constraints should be translated into, and what links should be added before the intelligent program forms an execution decision.

Unless there is a more advanced intelligent program like the mechanical emperor to supervise and control, any restrictions or permissions will be a joke for a true binary life.

How can this ensure that an intelligent program is loyal to Cheng Bin?

He also plans to sleep in the great base of Mars in the future, and his consciousness will travel to other inner worlds… If in this process, the brain of the intelligent program that controls the base is twitched…

God knows whether the passive defense effect of the electromagnetic warfare body can save Cheng Bin’s life-most of it is impossible. Whether it is a fusion reactor, thrown into the earth’s core, or sent to the sun, the unconscious Cheng Bin has to play it properly. GG.

“Low-level intelligent programs simply cannot control so many mechanical octopuses for complex construction projects…”

Flying in the air, Cheng Bin was holding a ball of silver-white metal like plasticine in his hand. He thought about adjusting the huge circular building under his feet—Zhurong No.1 with his mind.

“And advanced intelligence must add a final review link before the decision is executed. The role of this supervisory review…”

Cheng Bin thought for a while. It is impossible for him to spend a lot of time and energy to monitor smart programs at any time. Besides, with the terrifying calculation and decision-making speed of smart programs, he does not have the ability to supervise. In this case…

The image of a small black cat suddenly appeared in Cheng Bin’s head, which was moving fast.
