Chapter 516 Virtual Reality
The meeting on the second day was held as scheduled.
As the name suggests, the expanded meeting is an expansion of the regular meeting. The participants are not only the senior officials of the central departments of the new government, but also the chief executives of each residential spaceship, outstanding representatives from all walks of life, and leading figures.
In fact, this expanded meeting should be called a special expanded meeting, because in addition to the participants of the usual expanded meeting, there are also representatives elected by the people on each residential spaceship according to their own wishes. The representatives of the masses on each residential spaceship are also elected by the civilians on the residential spaceship.
In order to allow ordinary people to elect their representatives as soon as possible, the new government also specially provides them with a communication platform so that they can communicate in the shortest time, but even so, there are some residential spaceships that have not discussed the situation of representatives when the meeting arrives.
This is not a problem of strong artificial intelligence efficiency, but a problem of ordinary people themselves. Now the maximum population of a residential spaceship is one million, but for the comfort of living, a spaceship generally has only about 500,000 people.
Now humans have about 100,000 residential spaceships, but they are not full, because the life potion has caused a low fertility rate, and most of them are idle. The total human population is about 10 billion now, which can be accommodated by 20,000 residential spaceships.
20,000 spaceships, there are 20,000 ordinary people representatives alone, and the venue of the expanded meeting is definitely not that large, so these people basically participate in the form of virtual reality.
With today's technology, although humans have not yet achieved true holographic technology, virtual reality technology is quite amazing. It is completely possible to create a virtual venue like a game, and then let the participants participate in the form of a virtual cabin.
The success of this technology is also mainly due to the progress of nanotechnology. Humans originally had technical accumulation in the field of virtual reality, and the "human microcurrent sensing technology" used to operate tactical armor at that time was also used in the virtual cabin in the civilian field, becoming the entrance for people to travel in the virtual game world.
Yes, the game world.
In the society after the sharp reduction of survival pressure, many ways of entertainment have also emerged one after another, and electronic games are one of them. Especially in the past few years, many types of games have emerged in human society, including interstellar, martial arts, and cultivation.
And the way people enter the game is through the virtual cabin.
The virtual warehouse made with the third-level civilization technology has realized the holographic game mode described in the game novels of the Earth era, and can also realistically let the "players" experience the pain in the game. This is based on the "human microcurrent sensing technology" used to operate tactical armor in the past. It can be done by modifying some microcurrent feedback parameters. It is not difficult for humans who have reached the third-level civilization level.
Of course, the new government does not support games like virtual games and metaverses, but it does not prevent the birth of these derivative technologies.
After all, the technology itself is not wrong, but the way it is used is wrong. The new government certainly does not want ordinary people to indulge in the virtual world, but this kind of thing cannot be stopped at all, unless a strong administrative directive is issued to prohibit game development.
After all, it is really not difficult for humans today to develop games. As long as they seriously complete 50 years of compulsory education and learn some relevant professional knowledge, they can develop a game by themselves.
Many martial arts and fairy games that appear in society today are the result of the joint development of those enthusiasts. They don't even need strong artificial intelligence to provide computing power and algorithm support. They can easily get the so-called game server by using their rights as human citizens, and the knowledge they have learned can allow them to write artificial intelligence to serve the game.
The running programs of various NPCs in the game are written in this way.
During the period from the return of the human fleet to the creation of Xiaohui, because humans generally tended to be stable, people also woke up one after another during this period. Decades of time have allowed people to find new ways of entertainment. Many people who seem to be painful and have a certain amount of knowledge reserves have officially started to develop games according to their interests and hobbies during this period.
Combined with the technical environment at that time, virtual reality game operations were born.
The concept of virtual world and second world was also proposed at that time. Admittedly, the danger of this technology is obvious, but it also has a good side. For example, through this technology, the new government can use this technology to provide soldiers with immersive combat simulations.
Therefore, after the virtual reality technology matured, it was absorbed by the new government, and many talents in this area were recognized by the establishment.
And now, this technology is also used in large conferences.
The conference was held in the virtual world. Compared with the conditions in the real world, the virtual venue was much wider and could be changed at will according to the number of people.
After entering the virtual venue from the virtual cabin, you can see that the venue is a square building like a football field stand, with distinct levels, a stage for speakers in the middle, and seats for participants around.
If participants want to express their own views or the demands of the interest groups they represent, they have to come to the middle podium one by one in the order of speaking, and then the minutes will be recorded, and then the participants will discuss each suggestion and each topic.
Finally, a result that satisfies most people is obtained.
Obviously, a special expanded meeting of this scale cannot be completed in one day.
Based on the demands submitted by representatives of many interest groups to the meeting, the meeting coordinator divided the meeting process.
As you can see from the process, this meeting will take a total of fifteen days. The main topic of discussion is naturally the opening of life potions, but it is not just this topic, there are many questions derived from this topic.
For example, the impact of the virtual world on the future development of mankind and how to take preventive measures. How to solve the problem of inequality of effort and reward between scientific researchers and civilians. Should ordinary people who don’t have to do anything have access to strong artificial intelligence computing power?
Because of the emergence of strong artificial intelligence, human civilians can get something for nothing even if they don't have to do anything. So how to improve their work enthusiasm and what kind of work they should do.
How should the new government characterize pure enjoyers who are just waiting to die, and how should they be characterized as contributors to human development? Fairness, what is fair, relatively fair? Absolutely fair?
Should scientific researchers, scientists, and other groups continue to enjoy higher treatment than ordinary people? How is the treatment reflected? What kind of treatment should soldiers, soldiers, and government officials enjoy?
All these problems are derived from the issue of comprehensively opening up life medicines this time, and they must be solved, whether through legislation or other means. If these problems are not solved, human civilization will not be able to develop healthily.
