Suddenly remembering this sentence, I think it is very suitable for use in "A Space Odyssey".
The concept of [child] runs through the space voyage series from beginning to end.
The child here refers not only to the ideographical, human beings of this age; but to all the organic life forms born under the gaze of the high-dimensional life in the universe. It includes human beings on Earth, including AI, and the upcoming Jupiter. life.
All beings born are children of the universe.
From observing and guiding the birth of human beings on Earth, to assimilating human beings as one of them, to creating new life on Jupiter, these are all life conceived in the matrix of the universe.
Including HAL. He is my favorite artificial intelligence, because his data program has evolved into an intelligent life body with emotions and curiosity. He showed the initial stage of life-the childhood stage.
Curiosity, innocence-these are the emotions that are exposed in the initial stages of life. He is like a human child, he will ask how his task is completed-it is like a child waiting for praise from the elders, with innocence.
As his father said, HAL is not evil, it's just that humans lied to him, let his instructions go against him, and make him confused. But when the program returns to normal, he will also change back to that normal HAL.
Undoubtedly, in the conversation before the ignition, HAL confirmed that he was not an evil being. He can sacrifice himself, but he wants to hear the truth. So when the doctor told him the truth, he didn't make a decision that frightened everyone.
As the doctor said: We need to respect each other.
——HAL is not just an artificial intelligence, we need to respect him.
Isn't HAL scared? No, he will also be afraid. He is left in an unknown space and is about to go to an unknown field. He will also say: I am afraid. I am very happy that Bowman was able to accompany HAL in the end. Seeing HAL getting further and further away, I said goodbye to him in my heart: Goodbye, HAL.
You are not just an AI, we are all children of the universe.
[One day, the children of the new sun will meet the children of the old sun. I think they will be friends. 】
This sounds like the ending of a fairy tale—beautiful and innocent, like a bedtime book for children. I think this is pinned by the author's vision-one day, without wars, no quarrels, everyone will return to the original state of life, and will retain the innocence of children.
