Foreword



The Economist magazine has reported that the 2014 World Robot Statistics Report released by the World Robot Federation shows that the total number of robots produced and used in China will increase from the current 162,000 to 428,000 in 2017, while North America is expected to The total usage is 292,000 units, and the five largest economies in Europe have a total of 343,000 units. China will become the world's largest user of industrial robots.



According to another media report:



"As early as 2013, Midea Group invested 750 million yuan in the field of intelligent manufacturing, increasing the overall efficiency by more than 23% and saving more than 30,000 laborers. At present, Midea Group uses more than 800 industrial robots.



Guangdong Meizhi Refrigeration Equipment Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Meizhi Company") invested 60 million yuan in automation engineering in 2013, and in 2014, invested 140 million yuan to promote the company's automation and information transformation, and introduced robots in large quantities. There are 112 units. Meizhi Company expects to reduce jobs by 30% to 40% by 2017, and reduce the number of employees by about 700, while the number of robot positions has increased to 400. In



recent years, the demand for industrial robots in Foshan City has increased by 40% every year. The demand is growing. There are about 120 enterprises carrying out robot applications in the city, using more than 3,500 industrial robots. In the next three years, the city's industrial robots will reach 20,000 to 30,000 units.”



……



——Although these primary forms of robots have grown Scale appears in the world and exerts its remarkable efficacy, but in this article, they are only powerful foreshadowing of the birth of something more powerful, and I am not talking about such a rudimentary form applied to the production line. Robots, but their future, are real robots with abilities beyond imagination: what Nietzsche called "superman."



The body of



a hundred years ago, the history of mankind's greatest thinkers, futurists is the greatest excitement of Nietzsche says :( Please forgive me must quote their long section of the text): "Man



is a rope, tied Between animal and superman—a rope hanging over the abyss.



A dangerous forward, a dangerous halfway, a dangerous backward, a dangerous trembling and staying.



The greatness of man is that he is a bridge and not an end; the loveliness of man is that he is a transition and a sinking.



I love those who don't know how to live, if they're not sinkers, they're transcendents.



I love those great scorners, because they are great admirers, arrows of longing to the other side.



I love people who don't go behind the stars to find a reason to perish and sacrifice, but sacrifice for the earth so that it will one day become the earth of superhumans.



I love the man who lives for knowing, who demands knowing so that one day there will be a superhuman life. Hence he also demands his own perdition.



I love the man who works and invents to build a house for Superman, to prepare the earth, animals and plants for Superman: because then he also demands his own demise.



I love those who love their virtue: for virtue is the will to perdition and the arrow of longing.



I love the man who keeps not a little spirit for himself, but wants to be the spirit of his own virtue in its entirety: so he crosses the bridge as spirit.



I love the man who forms his inclinations and dooms out of his virtues: so he will live on, or not live, for his virtues.



I love people who don't want too many virtues: one virtue is more virtue than two, because it's more of a link to bad luck.



I love the man who squanders his soul and is unwilling to accept thanks or return: for he always gives, never preserves.



I love someone who feels ashamed when the dice fall and brings him luck and asks himself, am I a cheating gambler? Because he is willing to destroy.



I love the man who speaks first, then acts, and insists on doing more than he promises: because what he wants is his own ruin.



I love the man who justifies the future and saves the past: because he is willing to destroy as the present.



I love him who punishes God for loving his God: for he shall perish in the wrath of his God.



I love the man whose soul is deep even when hurt, and can be destroyed in a very ordinary experience: so he is willing to cross the bridge.



I love the man whose soul is so rich that he forgets himself, and is all in one: so all things become his sinking.



I love the man who has a free spirit and a free heart: so his head is only the guts of his heart, but his heart drives him to ruin.



I love all those who fall like heavy raindrops from a dark cloud over the heads of men: they announce the coming of lightning, and then perish as announcers.



See, I am the announcer of lightning, a heavy raindrop in a cloud: but this lightning is called Superman. "



Every word is so deafening. Nietzsche is too great, so he never expects the understanding of his contemporaries, and he can't even expect the near future, such as the understanding of most people in our current era, which may take many years. Only then can people truly understand him and the most important thought



of Nietzsche . In his later years, Nietzsche saw a horse in Turin, Italy, being brutally beaten by its owner. He madly hugged the horse's neck and cried. If you can understand this scene, You will be able to understand Kafka's "Metamorphoses". In the history of the world, these thoughts, concepts, emotions, emotions, and the idea of ​​being equal in Buddhism, have a common source or direction. People in the future will understand them more deeply. , to understand the sympathy that arises from beings that are also biological, but also have limited life.



Perhaps, there is love in life with biological limitations.



Nietzsche in his later years did not know whether he was willing to cross the bridge, I don't know if I am willing to sink... The



biological human being will eventually disappear. Perhaps the inherent emotion of the biological human being called love will eventually dissipate in this world, or it may be transformed into another A form of expression and feeling. But we will cross the bridge eventually.



A fish as a pet, jumping out of the tank, waiting for it is death. Our destiny is the opposite. The earth is our tank. The solar system is our tank . The universe is our tank. If we can't jump out of the tank, we're dying.



If the human community is suffocated until the day when the solar system perishes, and cannot break through the limitations of the solar system, what awaits human beings can only be the fate of extinction. Similarly, if the human community is suffocated until the day when the universe perishes, and cannot break through the limitations of the universe, what awaits human beings can only be the fate of perdition.



All aspects of human ability originate from the persecution of the environment, and are passed on from generation to generation through genetic inheritance. With the change of the environment, the ability also changes accordingly. The advancement of technology is constantly transforming the living environment of human beings, eliminating the outdated capabilities in the outdated environment, and constantly producing new human capabilities to adapt to the new environment.



From a big perspective, the reason why human beings can stand out in the competition for survival of countless earth biological species and eventually dominate the earth is because of its ability to adapt to new environments. From a small perspective, individuals stand out among countless human beings because of their ability to adapt to new environments and even participate in the creation of new environments. It is conceivable that among all human thoughts and concepts, how ridiculous and absurd are those so-called conservative concepts of inheriting and carrying forward traditions! The adherence to those non-technical traditions and outdated technical traditions can only lead to the demise of an ethnic group.



If the disappearance of the biological attributes of human beings is self-destruction, human beings obtain the future by destroying themselves, and this is the only way.



Technology transforms human beings. This is not only a trend, but also history. In this regard, women are the most avant-garde. Women who have had breast augmentation and hip augmentation, in part, are no longer biologically human. Disabled people with prosthetic limbs are, in part, no longer biologically human.



If technology can be used to transform women and people with disabilities, why can't it be used to transform everyone? Why can't it be applied to the entire human race? The transformed human will no longer be human in the historical biological sense.



The technologicalization of society and individuals is not actually a social trend, but an inevitable trend in the evolution of the universe.



For biological human beings, a book written by an individual often transcends the length of life, such as Robert Jordan's "Wheel of Time" series. This kind of regret will never happen to non-biological human beings.



In the future, the reunion of classmates once a billion years, a series of books that have been updated for tens of millions of years, the mind instructing all things, including the beauties' intimates, are all connected to the brain, and hackers can even take off on the street at will. Beautiful women's clothes...



These phenomena will appear in the world.



With the advent of the world of human-machine integration, the future world after a thousand years will only have Robert, but no biological person.



Technological progress has already implied the self-righteous logical rationality of people in the upper class in many countries to rebel against the country and the nation: the integration of man and machine is the trend of the times, and it will be popularized. In the future, black and white people will all be robots. There is only one race in the future: robots that combine human and machine. Go your own way and let others do the talking! Those darlings of power, wealth and talent, they have fallen prematurely, and they are proud of it.



The brain itself is a tool that, like any other tool, can be improved as technology develops.



As individual human beings, we all have a brain, but this brain is limited to the material basis of biological properties, and most people are even limited to natural language.



There are actually many kinds of languages, including natural languages ​​such as English, French, German, Russian, Western, Italian, and mathematical languages ​​and computer languages. When spoken natural language was produced, humans learned to communicate, communicate, impart knowledge and think more effectively. When written natural language is produced, human beings have also learned to pass on knowledge and spread knowledge more effectively. When the mathematical language came into being, human beings were no longer limited to natural language.



The human individual spirit and consciousness are nothing but creations based on natural language and the material brain limited to biological properties, and similarly, based on the fusion of computer language, mathematical language and natural language, and the more powerful not limited On the basis of the biological brain, we can also create a new individual spirit and consciousness, and create a new brain. This brain will be countless times stronger than the human brain. If the human brain is 100 If the efficiency of thinking, then the thinking efficiency of this brain will be 100 trillion power, which will lead to a large-scale explosion of new technologies, and even the arrival of the so-called technological singularity.



In the current society, for certain groups of people, technological supremacy is too cruel and disgusting. But technocratic books are worth reading. Humanity itself is only a technological product, and technology is the only human nature. We may deny a techno-supremacist, but we cannot deny a techno-supremacist universe.



Historically, the culture, literature, which we have been too obsessed with, these are only the ingredients of technology. Philosophy is nothing but a framework, model, etc. as a tool of thought. It is essentially a technology. Technology is the source of culture, and technology is human nature. As for literature, I have always believed that Wang Xiaobo and Calvino will be recognized as the best literature in the future, because these two bizarre guys are paranoid and focused on developing the ability to jump thinking.



As for the so-called human beings, we humans in the biological sense are just bridges. Man is just a form of technological evolution in the universe, and is essentially indistinguishable from other technological evolution products.



Initial medical treatment was nothing but an experiment. The curative effect cannot be said to be without, nor can it be said to have, the more the treatment is, the more it becomes the treatment. In ancient times, the general short lifespan of individual human beings and the impermanence of life would not prevent people at that time from resisting such a specious and fatalistic natural force, and medical technology was still developed continuously. Looking at the origin and development of medical technology in ancient times, it is completely predictable that human beings themselves are a kind of technological existence, and the transient nature of their individual existence is not a fate. In the past, individual human lifespans have been increasing. In the future, the lifespan of individual human beings will continue to increase. Humans will evolve into long-term existence with the continuous emergence of new technologies, but the premise is that human beings must be redefined from the level of pure technology. Human beings are essentially only a technical being, and as long as they do not violate their essence, they do not deviate from their definition.



Think of the bleakness of the late scene of those workers who were once suffocated in a living environment that almost absolutely limited the development of their own abilities: human beings, whether as individuals or groups, are only a technical existence. Human existence may not have a future purpose, but there must be a present premise: people cannot live in suffocation. Not aggrieved, this does not mean better survival, or more pleasure and fame. Aggrieved, it only means sad loss of opportunities for growth and choices to reflect the value of life.



No anti-technological, inefficient civilization can survive for long.



A society with a low degree of technologicalization, such as China, if it stubbornly adheres to its old system, including the economic policy of the pillar industry of real estate, which leads to the inefficient development and inefficient utilization of human resources, it will eventually be swept into the garbage heap and eliminated. reduced to a horrible world slum.



The combination of capital and technology is indeed the core competitiveness of capitalism relative to socialism, and it is also the core secret of capitalism’s rise and dominance in the world in recent centuries. Its driving force for social progress is the combination of official power and technology. Paradox is unparalleled. After all, official power itself can make profits without relying on technological innovation.



Separate the poor and rich populations of the world into two groups: a group composed entirely of poor people and a group composed entirely of rich people, and keep them isolated from each other. In the end we are going to have two groups of poor people and rich people. History has never changed substantially, poor people, or poor financially, or poor in power. The problem is that dividing China into a rich group and a poor group, and making them live in their own country, these two people will still produce, and the result is: a rich group and a poor group... . The



problem is not the emergence of the gap between the rich and the poor, nor the social phenomenon of the gap between the rich and the poor. Here's the problem: technological dominance is a core value of capitalism. In the logic of most technocrats, capitalism is in fact an application of a shareholding system to society as a whole, inflation is necessary and necessary, and the ever-diluted share of social wealth will prompt the contributions of generations of people to work hard self value. In the logic of most technocrats, capitalism is good, innovation is profitable, the poor are unsympathetic, and a welfare society is evil. Most people are poor, which should be the norm in all countries. Only this can push more people to the path of wealth creation, the path of continuous and uncompromising development of their individual talents, and the path of self-realization of their individual values. Your own way of life. The techno-supremacist ruling class recognizes the evil of human nature, and first of all recognizes its own evil. Evil is the source of the driving force of social progress. If you can't dance with wolves, you should be eliminated.



The fundamental reason why Western societies have rapidly surpassed Eastern societies in the past 400 years is that their culture is their core competitiveness. They are making technology a real ruler, not a human! The root of China's 5,000-year-old problem is that our culture is our inferior root, our inferiority. We are not making technology the real ruler, but the human!



Is Human a product of technology? Yes. Then let humans rule a society, doesn't it also let technology rule? no. why? Because of the complexity of human thinking, it tends to suppress technological innovation and development when it becomes a technological product centered on self-interest rather than completely efficiency. The pillar industry of high technology content, the real estate industry, has been booming for a long period of time, and the price of this development is that the funds that should have been invested in industries with high technology content have all flowed to this technology. very low content industries.



Technology itself is the way of the universe. Man itself is the latest technological achievement of the evolution of the universe, and man must also adhere to the direction of technological evolution and grab as much profit share as possible on this road, so that it is possible to pass his own technologicalization in the future evolution of the universe. Improvement, to achieve the strengthening, survival and prosperity of the population.



Chinese society is actually an anti-technical traditional culture. Capital + power is just a manifestation of anti-technical traditional culture. Is the anti-technological traditional culture suitable for talent development and development? Anti-technology traditional culture is a kind of anti-technology culture, a kind of anti-high-tech innovation and anti-high-tech promotion culture, a kind of anti-technology-led culture, a kind of culture that makes people come to rule, a kind of relational game culture, a kind of culture. An anti-brain game culture. When the cost of machines is lower than the cost of labor, people with this culture will be completely eliminated. People can be divided into two types, one is to divide the cake, and the other is to make the cake bigger. However, the anti-technical traditional culture can only create the vast majority of people who divide the cake, and there is a serious shortage of people who make the cake bigger. , what kind of consequences will this lead to? These people who share the cake gradually differentiate into a small group of people who steal, grab and cheat the cake, and those who rely on relationships to share more of the cake. These people are proud of their despicable behavior, so others It also began to follow suit. Slowly, or very quickly, the whole society changed and degenerated into a society of mutual harm without rules and shame, where everyone was bullying others, or relying on certain relationships, or relying on certain departments. Power, or relying on some unspoken rules of the industry, even eventually become a mob society. Some type of technology-led culture, no matter how bad, is better than such a cultural paradigm, at least in terms of adapting to the development and fulfillment of talent.



In a few decades, maybe ten years, all low-tech jobs will be robots, and all production line workers in manufacturing will be replaced by robots. If there is no large-scale application of artificial intelligence technology, in China, the era of brain competition seems to never come. But China is not an island, China is only a part of the global system, and technology will eventually form a coercive mechanism, just like the Eight-Power Allied Forces carrying more advanced weapons directly into the capital. Everyone thinks that it is normal to fight for fathers, relations, power, and shamelessness. A culture that excludes technology can only ultimately lead to the weakening of national competitiveness and the decline of the nation. The Chinese are nothing more than the natives of this continent. They have been poisoned by the bureaucracy for thousands of years and have been hard to come back. It is more pessimistic to predict that maybe in the near future, just like Australia, the ruler of this continent will never be. Indigenous...



And the so-called Indigenous will no longer be so-called black and white, but human beings in the biological sense. And every continent will fall.



When the cost of machines in all fields is lower than the cost of human labor, people will be completely eliminated.



The surface of the world is calm, but the depths of the world are turbulent. The world is in crisis. The world is facing dramatic changes.



The Geeks and Makers of the world are making a secret declaration: Let technology be the real rulers, not people!



The ultimate goal of atheism in the earth phase: machine domination of the earth. The robotic arm commands the world.



This goal can be achieved in the near future.



This is not a betrayal of humanity, but a necessity that was foreseen more than a hundred years ago.



Going back to the beginning of the text, looking at Nietzsche



who was full of inner contradictions and passion when he was looking forward to the future... I can understand his mood at that time.



To me, atheism is nothing but an ancient school of Buddhism.



Atheism is just a state of theism. Atheism is the unconscious belief in oneself as God. At the beginning of the world, God is the Tao, Tao is natural, the Tathagata, the process of the world, it is indeed necessary to develop and create an eternal immortal body in material form. With the development direction of artificial intelligence and 3D printing technology, the immortal body can be created.



We created the concept of God, which can correspond to a certain existence in reality, not a human-like existence, but a human-like existence. Buddha is just another name for God. Different religions are just different perceptions of God. Each religion has its own strengths and weaknesses when it comes to knowing whether it is close to the truth.



Atheism is but a type of theism. Atheism is a kind of self-god. Although atheism appears extremely arrogant in the early stages of human development, in the later stages of human development, man and God are equal in ability.



The development of everything, the evolution of the entire universe from the inorganic world to the organic world and its subsequent development, including the prosperity of finance, including artificial intelligence, printing technology, nanotechnology, biomimetic technology, the development of the Internet, etc., aims to make us more We are close to God, even comparable to and surpassing God in power, and finally we discover that we are God ourselves.



What is Buddha? A Buddha is an awakened being who has realized that the ego is nothing but a fiction constructed by man when he establishes an antagonistic yet interconnected relationship between himself and the world. Death is never only physical death. The ego never dies because the ego never really exists. Life should be a process of managing oneself and shaping oneself, not a process of drifting and lacking introspection. Life is not only a process that manifests in individuals, but also a process that manifests in groups. This process is the process of breaking through the limitations of biology, time and space, and so on, and finally evolving people into Buddhas. Our ego, will still live in the group of the future.



Atheism is actually theism, the only difference is that one is God.



Atheism is just a state of theism.



Atheism is the unconscious belief in oneself as God.



"The Buddhadharma is in the world, never leave the world for enlightenment, and leaving the world to seek Bodhi is like asking for the horns of a rabbit." This verse in the "Six Patriarchs' Altar Sutra" is exactly the epiphany from theism to atheism, and the epiphany from the Western Pure Land to the Human Pure Land. , is the epiphany from Purdue sentient beings to the Western Pure Land to Purdue sentient beings to the Pure Land on Earth, and the epiphany from Wuwei Buddhism to Visible Buddhism.



Zen Buddhism is not only a school of thought in Buddhism, but it has also derived more schools of thought, some of which are still not understood by the revolutionary nature of their ideas. From the understanding of Zen, Jobs, a techno-supremacist and admirer of Ayn Rand, is a great descendant of Zen.



For me, atheism has never been a political definition, but an ideological one. The elites in atheism are a group of arrogant and outstanding guys. Nietzsche was an elite among the earliest atheists. The elite of later atheists, we can cite Drucker, Ayn Rand, Peter Thiel, Steven Paul Jobs, Ray Kurzweil, KK and so on.



The true atheists are a bunch of technocrats and a bunch of people who believe in technology. You could say that I'm also an atheist because I can't deny the inevitability and the deep desire: the biological end of humanity and the arrival of the other side.

    A good idea was shot badly, and Depp really couldn't.

    "Human emotions can produce illogical conflicts" God, this year's "Elysium" is it! It's the kind of feeling that it's obviously not a bad movie, but after watching it, it will feel better than a bad movie. Why is everyone's dialogue sluggish and weak, why does Depp have an expression in the audience... The aura of science fiction films has become filthy.
