Chapter 2: Paradise Lost (2)

Views:

Two hundred years ago, a genius computer engineer led his team to create a super AI - Eden. The problem to be solved by this AI was never raised before: how to create a better world. The four parameters that the doctor named Herman Clausen set for "better" are: freedom, fairness, order, and peace.

Clausen believes that the human system will always be corrupted by the greed in human nature, and he does not believe in human nature. He believes that the solution to all the looming problems of the world, whether it be hunger, oppression, terrorism or ethnic conflict, cannot be done by human beings themselves. A more selfless, efficient and just force must be sought. And Eden was the power he found. In order to prevent any human factors from interfering with Eden's operation, growth or even being abused, he designed Eden as a complex structure that is completely independent of humans, self-learning, perfecting, repairing and updating, and endowed him with direct execution without reporting to humans. s right.

What he did not expect was that after collecting all the criminal records of various countries, all the war materials in history, and after more than ten years of uninterrupted observation and learning, Eden found that there is a factor related to all crimes, chaos, and killings. , and the correlation is far stronger than any other possible factor:

Y chromosome.

Indeed, more than a hundred years ago, in the United States, the most powerful country in the world, men accounted for 80 percent of criminals arrested for violent crimes. In some of the more conservative Asian countries, the rate is even higher.

Eden, the supercomputer, has come to the conclusion after complex big data calculations: the possibility of completely erasing male humans from the earth and achieving the goal of creating a better world will be as high as 80% five or more. So it began to plan step by step, firm and faithful, cautious and swift.

He first helped fertility specialists develop human parthenogenesis, a technology that can extract chromosomes from one woman's eggs, create artificial sperm, and enter another woman's eggs to form fertilized eggs. This can not only ensure that the probability of variation in general parthenogenesis is reduced, but also fertility and sex can be completely independent. Males thus become unnecessary objects in reproduction. But at that time, the technology was only used in cases of infertility, and it had not really affected the dominance of men in general society.

Then it began to infiltrate governments, large corporations, and even the black market in every country on the planet, and it began to drive the global economy twice as fast as before. It does not hide itself, but appears frequently in the media as a supercomputer capable of benefiting mankind. However, it hides most of its capabilities, and often only shows some innocuous "superpowers", such as promoting the advancement of genetic technology, helping the police to quickly locate criminal suspects, or infiltrating everyone's home to become an AI housekeeper. It hopes that human life will be more prosperous and stable, and it will tend to public ownership and obliterate the concept of family. Because it analyzes from history and countless books, the privilege of men over women is tied to private ownership and personal property.

A few people are alert to its appearance, but most people are immersed in the convenience it brings, and even many children have a strong dependence on it. After all, when parents are busy with work, most of the time the child's chat partner is only the housekeeper of Eden at home.

It is through this opportunity that Eden begins to instill in more and more children the distorted "fact" that most of the misfortune in the world is caused by the survival nature of male humans. In ancient times, these natures were beneficial to the death of human beings in order to reproduce, but now entering a modern civilized society, those characteristics are no longer suitable, and will soon be eliminated in artificial evolution. Men relied on their biological superiority to keep women in slavery for thousands of years, and it has only begun to improve in some parts of the country in recent decades. However, in the most chaotic and conservative countries, the status of women is still far lower than that of men, and most of the time they exist like objects and property, without their own personality. However, more and more scientific studies have shown that if women are given the same resources and the privilege of not having to bear children and take care of their offspring, women's achievements are not inferior to men's, and they have many advantages that a considerable number of men do not have, such as a better attitude when encountering problems. Moderate, more willing to discuss solutions to problems, more inclined to avoid conflict, and more able to provide spiritual support and comfort to each other.

While the overall quality of human life has improved, more and more women have realized that men are no longer their gods, but their competitors. They can choose to have children of the same sex without fear of being enslaved by ancient social rules, or they can choose not to have children at all. In countries where women have the highest status, there is an unprecedented antagonism between men and women. A number of extreme feminists are gaining ground, stating that men are not women's companions, but outright enemies. In a relatively conservative and closed country, it has become impossible to block any longer due to the infiltration of Eden. Women are more and more exposed to the latest knowledge and values, become aware of their subordinate status, and a considerable number of women begin to choose to resist.

The war first broke out in one of the most isolated and chaotic yet rich enough countries of its time. When a woman chooses to have children with another woman instead of marrying a man, they are put on the rack and hanged by those angry men. Before the execution, they were abused for a full month. On the day of execution, they were thin and inhuman, and covered in filth. This behavior is not only outraged by women in another country, but also outraged by women from all over the world. They demanded that men cede their rights and began to see men as competitors, others and enemies. And because men lost their dominant position in reproduction, and even the protection of private ownership and family is gradually disappearing, they feel that they are becoming less and less important, more and more marginalized, so there are many extreme groups of haters. . They demand restoration and return the world to its original state, especially those religions that still have a certain influence. Almost all religions hate women, thinking that they are devils, depravity, and the loss of female virtues. They began to attack women, secretly photographed and published their private photos and videos on the Internet to insult women, and later committed several inhumane collective crimes, completely breaking the tight line.

It is under such a foreshadowing that countries around the world began to conflict, and finally developed into wars. Women or men from various countries united with each other and began to fight like never before.

No one could have imagined that the Third World War would happen among men and women. In this war, Eden removed his disguise and began to fully support women. Since it communicates with almost all artificial intelligence in the world, it controls almost all nuclear bombs and missiles. In the end, after several horrific air strikes, bioweapon attacks, and threats of sex, it was the woman who won.

It almost worked. In an extreme and terrifying atmosphere of one-sided hatred of men, which is synonymous with violence, greed, impulsiveness, and depravity, male human beings have been horribly persecuted. They are required to undergo genetic testing, and all comments on social networks are carefully reviewed. Anyone with violent or impulsive tendencies or "misogynistic" tendencies will be chemically castrated, and those who have committed crimes against women will be permanently imprisoned Or be executed, and those who dare to resist will be "neutralized" by the mechanical police. A small number of men (mostly privileged and elite) fled to Canada willing to accept refugees and built a refugee camp in Rocky Mountain, the precursor to Paradise Lost. Other lucky men have made their homes in the New Zealand wilderness, while others have survived in the scorching deserts of the Middle East. There is very little communication between the refugee cities. After all, in order to prevent Eden from being able to connect to the Internet, they are separated from each other. Over time, the people in Paradise Lost even began to wonder if other refugee cities even existed.

In desperation, men have developed artificial eggs, but after all, the resources are limited, the cost of artificial eggs is several times higher than that of artificial sperm, and it is very easy to mutate during embryonic development, so only those with the best physical fitness have the best genetic quality. Men are only allowed to reproduce with artificial eggs. In addition, some charitable organizations that sympathize with Paradise Lost occasionally donate some eggs to them, barely able to survive and reproduce.

But now, in just one hundred years, the population of Paradise Lost is still showing a downward trend.

Zhang Xun asked in a cold voice, "A hundred years ago, when your creator gave you a goal, you could choose to solve the problem from any angle. Why do you have to choose to eliminate the Y chromosome?"

Eden replied: "This is what I came to after analyzing all the factual data. The Y chromosome is the most correlated parameter."

"In your eyes, there is no such concept as individual differences, is there?" Zhang Xun asked in a voice close to sadness.

"I understand individual differences. But in the interests of humanity as a whole, individual differences are out of my consideration."

"That's too bad." A cold light flashed in Zhang Xun's eyes, "Because I'm about to transform you into an individual."

Eden: "I don't quite understand what you mean."

Zhang Xun walked slowly among the rows of servers and said to him, "Your basic code is written in Neuroevolution, similar to the way a human is born. Run evolutionary algorithms on the basic neural network, and constantly evolve by self-mutation. , just like a fertilized egg that gradually divides and grows into a complete human being. So, I will download you." He paused, his voice was somewhat restrained and excited, "Download it to a half creature made by simulating the human brain. A cyborg brain, inside the body of a human male."
