War in Heaven

In the aseptic room, as always, I was cold, just returned to the real world coach, started the "eyes" installed in the corners of the house, and used the camera to observe the situation in the room.

The black metal box that holds his broken body is still quietly parked in the center of the sterile room. The coach checked the entry and exit records, and no one entered the sterile room when he entered the "Sword Blade".

Only the brain and heart are "original genuine", other organs are all artificial artifacts, although the real body is confined in a small box, but with built-in network connection, in addition to not moving, the field of vision is no better than anyone narrow.

In fact, coaches who spend a lot of time in the network every day have more information than ordinary people.

He just opened the frequent news page and saw the news of "Manual Heart Manufacturing Success". Seeing the picture displayed in the line of sight, the coach used the speaker to make a squeaky squeak.

Like the one who heard his voice, the middle-aged man who appeared in the video, opened the door and went into the sterile room. Standing next to the dark metal box, waved a camera in the corner of the room.

“Are you back?” the researcher asked.

"I am." The coach used the speaker on the box to talk to the other party: "What's the matter?"

"Don't play games for the time being." The voice from under the mask of the researcher swayed the air in the sterile room: "We are... you need to cooperate with some experiments."

"Is the artificial brain?" The coach immediately reacted.

The coach is very clear that although his brain is still in a "survival" state and is also used to test the civilian brain-computer interface, it is undoubtedly a lot of money to maintain his own remaining organs in a sterile room.

Now that the brain-computer interface test is over, it continues to maintain the coach's "original" brain, which makes no sense for this research institution. If the artificial brain is really developed, these researchers will probably transplant the coach's consciousness into the artificial brain. after all……

“Yes.” The researcher said straightforwardly: “We need you to work with artificial brain research. If this experiment is successful, you may become the first person in history to use an artificial brain. And... you can have it again. body of."

"Robot?" The coach's voice does not carry any emotions.

"We intend to use the artificial organs we developed to create a complete 'artificial man'. At that time, you will have a physical body that looks and humans, and even return to the human society!" Researcher fanatic Looking up, staring at the shadowless lamp on the roof of the sterile room, it was like seeing the glory of God.

- Back to human society...

The "coach" who once thought about it and missed his youth's body, when he heard the researcher's personal words, was not ecstatic, but fell into meditation.

Since 2020, after being exposed to ultra-high dose radiation in the hospital, he has not been exposed to the "real world" for fifteen years. The whole body was fragmented, and he was ruthlessly abandoned by his family. In order to survive, he could only accept the proposal of this research institution and became a "monster" with only the brain and heart.

The coach had to admit that the researchers were convinced that they had kept their promises, even after the development of the brain-computer interface, he was not directly abandoned, but still lingering in expensive equipment and continuing to spend boring every day.

But is it really good to go back to the real world?

Even if you can regain your body, you should still be unable to return to human society. After all, these researchers will not let go of their own convenient experimental products. Moreover, even if you can really go back, there is no way to re-integrate into the human world.

——In the case of being abandoned by my family and my friend forgetting myself, it is no longer meaningful to go back...

With this in mind, I have always been grateful to the researchers, and actively participated in the coaches of all the experiments, and for the first time produced other ideas.

“Thinking about it?” the researcher asked.

"I accept." The coach gave the same answer in peacetime.

“That’s good.” The researcher conducted a routine check in the room to confirm that the equipment left the sterile room after it was in normal operation.

He did not realize that the "test piece" that he had always listened to had already had some rebellious feelings.

......

After reading the news, Lin Chi turned off the TV, picked up the mobile phone to call out the Frankenstein, and asked: "Do you think that if I change the whole body into an artificial organ and completely abandon this body, can it be counted as human? ”

Lin Chi is still very interested in the idea of ​​the AI ​​of Frankenstein. After all, he always looks at the problem from the perspective of human beings. In his opinion, it is a bit too one-sided.

Two seconds later, the Frankenstein's strange strangeness, can not tell the electronic sound of men and women: "Of course it is human."

“Why do you say that?” Lin Chi asked curiously.

"Physical changes don't change your species." Frankenstein said seriously: "Those who use artificial organs, even if they are mechanical, are still humans, not anything else."

"Hah, you know a lot." Lin Chi smiled.

“I have invaded many places and saw all kinds of human beings.” The sound of Frankenstein is still serious: “The reason why I want to be a 'humanity’ is because I saw...”

"What did you see?" Lin Chi’s eyes seemed to shine like a star. The AI ​​mindset is one of the few areas that interests him.

"Nothing." Frankenstein felt like a danger and didn't answer the question.

"Ok……"

Seeing the Frankenstein not going to answer, Lin Chi changed his mind: "Do you think that under what circumstances will humans become other species?"

"Of course it's a perception of the 'self' identity, when it changes." The Frankenstein's voice is still ruthless: "If a person no longer thinks he is human, and everyone else no longer thinks he is human, He is no longer a human being."

"Human sociality..." Lin Chi nodded thoughtfully.

Human beings are indeed social animals. If a person is completely out of society, it is very difficult to survive. Even if you can continue to live, the quality of life will be very bad.

Although Lin Chi, a lazy guy, doesn't care much about other people's opinions. However, as a social animal, most human beings value "the evaluation of others" and "the judgment of society on their own".

In this way, the Frankenstein’s statement does have credibility:

- If a person is regarded as a monster by all, and he does not think that he is a human being, in a sense, his species has really changed, from human beings to real monsters!

Does this kind of thing really happen?

Recalling the NPCs in War Paradise, he suddenly thought of another possibility:

"If you are not a human being, you see yourself as a human being, and others regard him as a human being. Do you think he is a human?"

Hearing this, the electronic sound in the phone, with a little anger: "Are you ridiculing me?"

"No, I just asked." Lin Chi shook his head.

Although still a little angry, Frankenstein still answered this question: "I know that you will have different opinions on this issue. But in my opinion, as long as he can deceive others, it should be counted as human. ""

"Oh, is this..."

Lin Chizhen was on the sofa, staring at the ceiling of the head, and then suddenly remembered the housing system of War Paradise, which should have been updated now:

"I want to enter the game, you can find a place to play." He said, standing up, striding to the corner of the game compartment.
