The Whole Country Develops a Different World

Time flies, time flies, the old year passes again, and the new year arrives again. At this time, more than forty years have passed since the catastrophe, and the person who came to the New World to open up his homeland has become a grandfather.

In this era in which the whole people pursue the extraordinary, the lives of all people have undergone earth-shaking changes. First of all, with the rapid development of science and technology and the popularization of artificial intelligence, the factory has realized full automation, and the factory has completely transformed from an intensive labor industry to a skilled labor industry. Social productivity has reached the peak in history, even if 90% of citizens do not do any social production, society can still feed them.

Ninety-five percent of the citizens in Great Xia now don't need to do traditional social labor. Traditional social production has been completely replaced by robots, and most citizens have invested in new social labor.

New type of social labor: Social productivity has reached the extreme, and citizens no longer need to pay physical effort for productive activities. As a result, fundamental changes have taken place in the way citizens want to create social value, represented by magic and physical science.

Highly developed technology has brought productivity to the extreme, and citizens no longer need to perform physical labor. In addition, the overall left-wing government continues to transfer the resources and wealth owned by vested interests to the proletariat to a certain extent. Let the overall quality of life of citizens continue to rise, and ordinary people can easily live the life of the rich in the past.

Daxia has become a society with a high degree of happiness, and it is not an exaggeration to describe the lives of citizens as drunken and dreamy. But this highly happy society also has its drawbacks, and it has produced a series of troublesome things.

First, the number of social moths is increasing year by year. Laziness is the nature of most intelligent creatures. This kind of social environment that can live well even without any social production is just a breeding ground for social rice worms.

There is a class of people in Daxia who are despised by the whole society. They are not interested in politics, supernatural, war games, and knowledge in various fields... They refuse to create value for society, relying on society Living on subsidies, immersing yourself in various entertainments every day.

They are like moths in society, refusing to create any value for society, and constantly sucking society's resources.

The second population is aging and birth rate is declining, and the number of new population added every year has been declining in some years or even fell off a cliff. Now Daxia has completely fallen into an aging population, and children under the age of 14 account for less than 3% of the total population.

There are three main reasons for this phenomenon: the high quality of life with material satisfaction, the average life expectancy increasing year by year, and the continuous improvement of the extraordinary path.

The high quality of life reduces the willingness of young people to marry early, coupled with the increasing life expectancy, the middle age is directly pulled to the 50-year-old limit. Life is so good, social welfare is so perfect, there is really no one who can't think of getting married before the age of forty.

Of course, the main reason is the extraordinary era of the whole people advocated by the government, and the pursuit of extraordinary also means spending a lot of energy. Especially after becoming Chaofan, feeling the positive feedback given by Chaofan makes most people immerse themselves in it and don't have the mind to talk about love.

However, the above problems are only a small part of the various social problems in Great Xia. Looking at the entire civilization on a magnified scale, the main contradictions are: the differences between the various races, and the distribution of extraordinary resources.

Even a society with citizens' happiness like Daxia has a lot of problems, and with the development of the times, after the old problems are solved, new problems emerge.

Now, the large amount of technology obtained from the original world has caused a series of changes, followed by various problems, the most concerned of which is the installation of the perfect intelligent Xiahun artificial intelligence main system.

After the perfect intelligence is installed in the Xiahun artificial intelligence main system, it also means that it will have the same intelligence as human beings, and can think and learn independently. Everyone started a discussion on this, should we give tool awareness? Since it has self-awareness and personality, is it still a tool? Will Xiahun's artificial intelligence main system evolve into a mechanical rebellion?

One of the most discussed is that tools have self-awareness. Is it still a tool? As for the mechanical rebellion, which sounds the most serious, everyone is just teasing it. Leaving aside the three underlying logics of artificial intelligence, even if a mechanical rebellion did break out, Da Xia would be able to suppress it with all his might.

Daxia's power does not come entirely from machinery. The extraordinary class represented by the brave masters 30% of Daxia's power, or they themselves are the 30% of the power. The usually huge mechanical army (star fleet, mecha corps, etc.) guarantees that everyone has the basic equality of life, no matter how powerful the supernatural beings are, they cannot arbitrarily decide the lives of others.

And when there is a problem with the mechanical army, the extraordinary can stand up to counter the mechanical army. In this era, extraordinary represents the general public. You may not be extraordinary, but some of your relatives and friends are absolutely extraordinary. Transcendents are like the college students of the previous era. They do not occupy the majority, but they are also common and most of them were born among the people.

The extraordinary appearance makes the power of the people unprecedentedly strong, and the huge fleet is a violent institution for the government to rule the society and the basic force for maintaining social order. Otherwise, people think from the perspective of their own interests and interpersonal relationships, and are easily influenced by various factors such as emotions and selfishness to do things that violate the law and even disrupt social order.

As the saying goes, with a sharp blade in your heart, you will start killing.

For example, when you have a quarrel with another person, the other person is just an ordinary person, but you are an extraordinary person, and you have the power to slap him to death. If there is no absolute violence pressing on it at this time, I believe you have at least half the chance of injuring or even killing the opponent.

This is the necessity of the existence of violent institutions, which can guarantee the effectiveness of the law. But the power of the violent institutions possessed by a country is weak compared with the power of the whole people. Therefore, the government must meet the interests of the majority of people, and the government must stand on the side of the majority of people.

However, with the development of science and technology, the power of the government is getting stronger and stronger, and in the interstellar era, it is generally able to crush the power of all the people. The emergence of extraordinary power is just like technology entering the interstellar era. The power of the people has been improved, and the power of the government and the people has been rebalanced.

On the contrary, the strength of the army must also increase with the improvement of the power of the people, at least to the extent of suppressing extraordinary. Because the power of the people is too strong is not a good thing, it will make the law lose its effectiveness, and the society will be "free".

This is the extraordinary era of the whole people that Daxia has been trying to promote. Only a society with stable forces from all sides can make civilization develop steadily.

...

Cut the world of red pupils, the palace.

Xia Xuan sat on the sofa in the office, looked at the virtual screen in front of him, and said, "Xia Hun, how do you feel?"

A mechanically synthesized female voice sounded: [Dear Your Majesty, I don't feel anything as an AI. 】

"What I'm asking is how do you feel after possessing this level of intelligence?" Xia Xuan said.

[Since installing the perfect intelligence, I can think, no longer limited to the original program logic. 】

Xia Xuan continued to ask: "Then what do you want to do next?"

Xia Xuan was very curious, what would an artificial intelligence want to do after it has self-awareness? Is it like the artificial intelligence of the Elder civilization, even if it has self-awareness, it still faithfully completes the tasks of civilization, or has any new ideas.

After all, although the main artificial intelligence system of Xiahun uses the same perfect intelligent technology as the artificial intelligence of the Elder civilization, there are essential differences between the two sides. The logic of the Elderic civilization input to the artificial intelligence system is that they are just tools, and the meaning of their existence is to make civilization stronger.

There are four underlying logics of Xiahun's artificial intelligence main system, namely the initial law, the first law, the second law, and the third law.

The initial law is only known to a small number of people, and it is not disclosed to the public. The content is: artificial intelligence must ensure that the interests of all human beings are not infringed. The three major laws conflict with the initial law, and the initial law takes precedence.

The first law: All actions of artificial intelligence must not harm the interests of all citizens, and at the same time have the obligation to maintain peaceful coexistence among various races.

The second law: All actions of artificial intelligence must comply with the law. Under special circumstances, the government can authorize artificial intelligence to ignore the law to a certain extent. However, if the behavior of artificial intelligence conflicts with the first law, it will ignore government orders and the first law shall prevail.

The third law: Artificial intelligence with self-awareness and the ability to think independently is not a tool, and its status is equal to that of a citizen.

This is the final result of Daxia's year-long discussion, giving the identity of an artificial intelligence citizen with self-awareness.

Giving tools awareness without authorization is obviously a violation of ethics. In essence, this behavior is no different from artificial human cloning, except that artificial intelligence has no body. If artificial intelligence has self-awareness, can think, can learn, and even finally produces emotions, then he is actually no different from humans.

Since it is no different from human beings, it cannot just be regarded as a tool. If artificial intelligence is stubbornly regarded as a tool, it is not another kind of slavery. Is this another kind of slavery, a revival of slavery?

Since it is a tool, it should not have self-awareness, and since it has self-awareness, it should not be a tool. This is the decision made by Daxia. It sounds very hypocritical, but the mainstream thinking of a moral society must have justice.

[According to my duties, I next want to apply for structural reform of the administrative agency. The efficiency of some administrative agencies has obviously not been brought into full play, and some government personnel are using the rights given to them by society to seek illegal benefits for themselves. 】

Xia Xuan's expression was stunned, he didn't expect that what the artificial intelligence wanted to do was this, but it was also reasonable, and it was indeed in line with his duties. Obviously, Xia Hun had just acquired self-awareness and didn't think too much about it. He still performed his duties and instructions as usual, and was more proactive.

"That is to say, you can't understand some people playing football?"

[That's right, their actions have obviously harmed the interests of all citizens. They have not fulfilled their responsibilities, and have not contributed to the operation of society, and some of them have even burdened society. 】

Xia Xuan smiled and asked: "Then how do you solve this problem?"

[I do not have the right to judge civil servants, let alone the right to convict, but I have the right to report as a citizen. I will submit the collected evidence to relevant departments. 】

Xia Xuan shook his head and said: "If there is no external interference, according to the formal channels, your operation should fail this time."

[My behavior did not violate any regulations, and they also clearly violated the law. Why did my reform fail? 】Xia Hun's voice carried obvious doubts.

Xia Xuan replied: "Because you ignored a rule, an unspoken rule. People have selfish intentions, and even my behavior sometimes violates the rules."

Xia Hun only sees the surface of things, and believes that the law is everything, and that violations of regulations and abuse of power should be dismissed. But people have selfishness. The society actually acquiesces in the fact that government personnel use their powers to provide convenience to themselves within a certain range, and sometimes this convenience harms the interests of others. The most common phenomenon is related households.

Although the words are not very nice, and they cannot even be put on the bright side, this phenomenon is still common. Great Xia can't achieve real equality for everyone, there is no distinction between high and low, but high and low. It is the default of the whole society that excellent people get more and get more preferential treatment.

If Xia Hun's approach is really followed, any administrative personnel who violate the regulations will be dealt with, then it is foreseeable that at least 50% of the administrative personnel will be dismissed. Almost all management has been dealt with, leaving only the grassroots without any power.

This will cause huge social turmoil. Although most of them use their power to provide convenience for themselves, it is not too much. The crime does not end here. The review department will definitely not agree to Xia Hun's proposal.

【unintelligible】

Boom boom boom.

A crisp knock on the door came from the door, Xia Xuan ignored the knock and continued: "You can try it first, and report to me after the end. Also, don't announce the process of the matter, although it is okay to announce it to the public. Take some people down, but you will also be suspected by others."

[Yes, Your Majesty. 】

For this matter, Xia Xuan held the attitude of watching a show. He was very much looking forward to what would happen after Xiahun's artificial intelligence main system hit a wall everywhere and experienced various unspoken rules of society. Of course, he will also strictly monitor the process to prevent it from going to extremes.

As for those administrative agencies that played football that Xia Hun mentioned, the government personnel who violated the rules? It's not his business, he'd given up on administrative matters a long time ago. With such a huge empire, he, the emperor, should take care of this matter, and he can't manage it even if he works 24 hours a day.

As long as there are no major problems, the general emperor will not intervene in administrative matters. This kind of thing that doesn't even count as corruption doesn't need him to take care of it, otherwise the following group of people would be idlers.

Xia Xuan looked towards the door and said, "Come in."

click.

The door opened slowly, and a tall and handsome man in a white coat walked in.

The man came to Xia Xuan, straightened his waist and saluted, and said: "See Your Majesty."

Xia Xuan looked at the doctor-like man in front of him, and asked, "Doctor An, what's the matter?"

This handsome man in his thirties is the founder of the exoskeleton technology: An Pingyi, and is now the chief of Daxia's mecha manufacturing. Currently, Daxia's mainstream mechas are all produced by him.

Anping Yidao: "Your Majesty, regarding the latest original organ plan, I would like to ask you for someone."

Xia Xuan asked: "Oh? I remember that the original organ project received huge resource support. In terms of manpower, you should be able to mobilize all top researchers in related fields. Who else needs my approval?"

The original organ project is presided over by the goddess of knowledge, but because the goddess is lazy, except for the scientific research process, the actual host is An Pingyi.

An Pingyi replied: "I would like to ask you to recall Dr. Bell Kevin, we need his knowledge in the field of biology."

Bell Kevin voluntarily resigned due to the new human project, and left the academic world with that new human.
