The most radical solution is to move the whole world, including people, to the computer.
Virtualizing the physical world is what we have done and are doing. Space is not a problem, even if it is done according to the existing technology. Moreover, the development of computer hardware is far from over. We are developing three-dimensional circuits, and the signals of photonic computers do not interfere with each other during transmission. Quantum computers with amazing space and speed have already had the simplest prototype.
1985, Professor Richard smalley and Professor Robert Curl in the United States and Professor harold kroto in the United Kingdom discovered football-like molecules composed of carbon atoms, which are called "Babbitt balls". The three of them won the 1996 Nobel Prize in chemistry. The slender "Babbitt ball" is shaped like a tube and is called carbon nanotubes. Straight pipes have properties similar to metals, and their strength, stability and conductivity greatly exceed those of metals. Slightly curved carbon nanotubes have semiconductor properties. 50,000 carbon nanotubes add up to the diameter of a hair filament. Carbon nanotubes are theoretically a tube with atomic thickness, so integrated circuits made of carbon nanotubes are much smaller than silicon semiconductors, and have stronger heat resistance and durability.
Optical computers use photons instead of electrons for operations. A laser beam can generate hundreds of millions of coherent photon streams, and each photon stream can complete a series of independent operations, which are completed by lenses, mirrors, diffraction gratings and other components. The biggest advantage of optical computer is that it can perform trillions of large-scale parallel operations at the same time.
Compared with current electronic computers, quantum computers are equivalent to hydrogen bombs and grenades-strictly speaking, they are even more disparate. Suppose there is an electronic computer as big as the universe, and every molecule and every molecular group in the universe becomes a computer that reaches 10,000 times per second. Assuming that even such a computer will run for 654.38+00,000 years, it is difficult to solve the problem, and a quantum computer can solve it at the negative ninth power of 654.38+00. Isaac Zhuang of Los Alamos National Laboratory and Neil Gersenfidel of Massachusetts Institute of Technology made the first simplest quantum computer with carbon atoms in alanine molecules.
All of the above means putting 654.38 billion people and the world into computers, and storage space and speed are not a problem.
The individual skills of the computer have surpassed and will soon surpass the human brain, and the capacity, speed and upper limit are not comparable to those of the human brain. As a unique fuzzy calculation and parallel processing of human brain, computers have already done it. But many people doubt whether computers can produce consciousness. If not, "I" can't access the computer, and this is the key!
It would be great if "I" could access the computer. For example, you can live forever (remember to back up yourself often), you will have inexhaustible wealth and splendor, and beautiful handsome guys are the people they value (you can also be beautiful handsome guys, you can switch between them and choose your own age). Hunting wild animals is not illegal-don't be too busy enjoying the future. After all, maps are not territory. Can I come in? How to get in? What dimension is the future? By the way, it seems that Lenin said that mathematics can conceive the fourth dimension, but only in the three-dimensional space can the czar's rule be overthrown. What talented revolutionary instructors say is often true.
Actually, I don't know if I can access the computer. I know it can be done theoretically, and human consciousness is only a product of matter, but I just don't know whether it can be done objectively. Theory and practice sometimes seem to be only a few millimeters apart, but it is actually the front and back of a steel plate, which is not so easy to get through. No matter where you see the debate about whether computers can defeat the human brain, the overwhelming view must be that computers are unconscious and uncreative, and will only act according to human instructions. So on this issue, no one will buy any other abstract "dimension".
People who are skeptical about whether computers can produce consciousness will not doubt that people are conscious and creative. With this knowledge, it is much more convenient to communicate with each other. My dad imagined two ways to get into the computer. If friends think of other ways, please post. If appropriate, I will insert this article.
The first one: use nanotechnology to scan the whole person, including the brain, and then transform it into a virtual "I". Tunneling microscope can display and move atoms. As the first advertisement of this technology, it is to manipulate atoms to make them IBM mode. It seems that scanning a virtual "I" leaves only the perfection of technical details and the enlargement of scale. Medical tests have proved that scanning is not enough to affect people's thinking activities. The existing biological knowledge tells us that the structure and work of organisms often adopt simple principles and are universal. For example, the genetic information of all organisms is expressed in the order of base pairs, and the force between biomolecules is mastered by middle school students. The fine structure of nerve cells mainly supports its own survival process and has no direct connection with information processing. The optical imaging scanning technology developed by Israeli scientist Amira Greenwal has a resolution of less than 50 microns, which can be operated in real time and can see the information transmitted by a single nerve cell. This means that scanning "I" into the computer will not encounter insurmountable difficulties.
The second type: implant a chip with mass memory function (about the size of one or two soybeans) into the human brain, make it interconnected with the brain, record the information obtained by the brain, and share the work of the brain (which has begun in medicine), from gradually replacing the work of the brain to eventually replacing the work of the brain. After a hundred years, the "soybean" will be picked, the information will be transmitted to the computer, and "I" will continue to live.
