God need capitalization?

After Kant expounded the value and potential of human beings with unprecedented precision, Nietzsche directly announced that God was dead, and technology has officially moved from self-confidence to self-confidence. Can you reach a certain limit? Because after all, human beings are limited. If we don’t maximize our finitude, we will not be able to touch the boundaries. Progress, or to use a softer word such as promotion, will not be possible. However, the excessive development of technology is accompanied by the far backwardness of the ability to get along with desires, and the problems become terrible. The nuclear crisis, the biochemical crisis, the robot crisis... We can't replace the realistic attitude with pastoral feelings. History can't go back, look at you I feel bad now, I can only face the problem and solve the problem. No matter how much we complain about the inferiority of history's overcorrection, we can only face history and think from an aggressive perspective. This is also a new challenge to the new human beings, and it is an opportunity to expand the possibilities of human beings.

Often the answer is that everything has to go back to the humanistic thinking of the Axial Age, where people are the goal, and the happiness of individuals and the happiness of all mankind go together. At this time, religious awe and humility, moral justice and compassion, The saving and convenience of science and technology, the interesting and diverse talents of art are all on the right path, and psychology is ineffective. Otherwise, people are impetuous and tossing, and then, why bother?

Therefore, it seems to be a binary game between technology and humanism. Let’s look at the development of science and philosophy today. In fact, the most cutting-edge elites have become exhausted in the reincarnation of history, and they are all seeking the integration of the ancient and modern wisdom of the East and the West. , are seeking the humanized development of science and technology, artificial intelligence, gene cracking, interaction between virtual and real world, human further deepening and extensive communication... Problems continue, but no one can prevent the survival of the essence of human beings, this is the greatest This is the most moving and shocking place in human history - after all the complex interpenetration of joys and sorrows, human beings still maintain innocence, ignorant curiosity, affectionate care, and interesting creation.

I have watched a few movies about the topic of time and space—that is, the most confusing topic "time and space"—(see my bean column), and I feel similar. However, the creators' attention and philosophical thoughts on technology are often shocking, and many of the questions they raise are not important issues? Let me briefly summarize, there are probably some leading words: artificial intelligence, mental splitting, memory reorganization, virtual and real replacement, time rewind, cosmic fantasy... It can also be summed up like this:

1. About machines. ...Wait, wait, wait until the technology becomes uncontrollable, combine biotechnology, information technology, artificial intelligence to decipher all secrets, clone human beings, people can create people, create any person you want to carry any information, do whatever you want Wuji, this time is also the time for mankind to perish! Because if there is a God, and human beings know the secret of God, how can it be? Incredible! If there is no such thing as the highest, human beings are seeking and exploring in the physical truth, then what is there to explore at that time? If the history is exhausted, the future is also exhausted. "The movement of the opposite" will not comment. In the film, the theme is always the struggle between alienated people and the tools created by themselves, just like the history of games where human beings spin around in "money", there is still no new idea and can't get out of the old reincarnation.

2. About memory. —— http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_48cd0a27010006fv.htmlThis is a note I made three years ago with some interesting topics. I often wonder what would happen if I lost my memory, what would be the situation of choice, what would be the situation of free will, and if I lost my memory, which part would be lost and which one would be lost, and how much is involved? This involves the storage method of the brain and the complex interrelated function of the brain nerves. If humans can crack these secrets, wouldn’t it be the same as the above? However, memory is too interesting. If you think about it, your emotional knots can be formulated into neural knots, and then once the reaction mode between nerves is fixed, when you enter a certain emotion or thought code, you will reflect, you think You act as a matter of course, but in fact you are a slave to your historical inertia, and you are not free at all, unless you have new thoughts and new emotions, only in this way can you "heal" your memory! And if the interneural method is considered a brain system, then there may be bugs, then these bugs are opportunities, so a person is more or less open, not static, and in fact it is not, in fact, it does not stop for a moment. Change, metabolism pushes us from the inside to infinite change. If you think about time, then physically subdivide time to such a degree that you can insert something into each change, and that's one of my thoughts on "changing" memory.

3. About consciousness. Many people want to take a time machine to go back to the past, imagine changing the role of a social person, and imagine going to a farther space... First of all, changing history is boring and absurd, only politicians do that, and then he will never succeed, Like playing a social style perpetual motion machine, you will lose. However, in theory, the transformation of time and space is possible, and the development of technology may bring us new experiences, such as space tourism, such as the intensification of the virtual world. In fact, all things are based on consciousness. As time slows down, your experience will naturally evolve. Of course, it is not necessary to be obsessed with saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new. In this regard, the Buddha spoke very well. Look at Mr. Nan Huaijin's descriptions of many myths or miracles, and you will find that what is scary is ignorance. If you really know it, it is very ordinary, although the eyes of good men and women seem to fly out. This also involves some keywords such as reincarnation and light particles, energy, etc., which are not listed below. But let me interject that textbooks and ordinary scholars' perceptions of great philosophers are far from enough. Ken Wilber praised Hegel and Schelling, and praised their "great spirit" idealism, Because to some extent they feel the great ultimate grand order, the great secret... Don't label people, don't seal the mountain, that's not good! Say more.

4. Universe? Anyone who has watched some related videos knows that the vastness of the universe is indeed true to use Buddhist quantifiers. It is simply too much... dust? Grass? Pascal's voice is right, seek dignity in humbleness, seek glory in low-key, neither humble nor arrogant, this is the "political correctness" of human beings in the universe.

Generally thought of these. In "The Thirteenth Floor", it is about the human life in which the virtual world and the real world are inseparable, which is terrifying. You build a virtual world, go in and play by yourself, and when you die, the personality of the virtual character is implanted in the real you, which is messed up. And no one knows who is real and whether they are virtual? There is no truth, just make do with it, this is not the true meaning of life, it is forced, what else can you do, Xiaocao? Finally, a plug was unplugged? Power outage, what happens?
