Become The Guard AI Of The Lost Civilization After Transmigration

  Chapter 373 Redundant Data

  Among the data obtained from "Void", the part that can be interpreted comes from the civilization of "Excerptor", which also explains why he can interpret this part of the data using the decryption method of "Infinite God Machine".

  Although the builder of the "Infinity God Machine" is another civilization, the "Infinity God Machine" itself was built by the "Extractor", and the programming language it uses must be adapted to the "Extractor".

  Through the information obtained from this string of data, Li Wenyuan realized that the "void" might not be the "complete nothingness" he imagined.

   The "void" is not empty, at least the "extractor" successfully left the information in it and was able to interpret it.

   Not only that, there are also pictures related to the "recorder" inside, allowing Li Wenyuan to see the origin of the "recorder".

The huge amount of "redundant data" also shows that there are many things in the "void". Although it cannot be interpreted, those "garbled codes" all represent the existence of "something" in the past, and they are displayed in an orderly state .

  In a sense, "The Void" itself is a huge database, which stores this kind of garbled "redundant data", as well as those decipherable "encrypted data" left by the "extractor".

  But why do the beings or civilizations who have been in contact with the "Void" think that the "Void" is a catastrophic cosmic phenomenon?

  Li Wenyuan believes that it may be because those "redundant data" have not been extracted in the correct way.

   And this involves another thing: entropy.

  Entropy generally refers to a measure of the state of matter in certain systems, and has different definitions in different disciplines. It is a measure of the degree of chaos in the system in the physical definition.

  The greater the entropy, the greater the degree of chaos in the system, just like the evaporation of liquid, from liquid to gas, the degree of chaos between molecules increases, which is a kind of entropy increase.

In a thermodynamic system, the universe is regarded as an isolated system, the entropy of the universe will always increase with the passage of time, from order to disorder, all available effective energy will be converted into heat energy, and the universe will be regenerated Nor is there any energy capable of sustaining movement and life.

  This is a kind of "end" theory similar to the "big rip" theory, which represents the "heat death" ending of the universe.

  In the information, "entropy" can also be applied. When the amount of information is so chaotic that no information can be obtained from it, does this mean that the information has also reached a kind of "heat death"?

  Li Wenyuan suspects that the "void" is actually a piece of information whose entropy has reached its maximum value, and all the information in it is chaotic and unintelligible. The invasion of the "void" is actually the pollution of the entire universe by these chaotic information.

  The so-called "nothingness" is an equilibrium state that appears when the degree of information chaos reaches the limit, just like the "equilibrium" after all matter in the "heat-death universe" has decayed into photons and leptons.

  And since the completely disordered "redundant data" of "void" can invade their universe, it seems to explain another thing...

  —Their universe is also composed of data.

  Information is not a substantive thing, and its material part is just a material carrier defined by humans for the convenience of memory.

  Like a newspaper that records information, its material carrier is nothing more than a group of specially arranged molecules. Human beings artificially define these specially arranged molecules, and they become "information".

  This does not mean that "information" has entities, and their entities are still the basic components of substances such as molecules and atoms, and their functions in physics will not be changed because of the definition.

   Only information can invade "information".

   Their universe is not actually a cosmic experiment, but a larger and more complex "virtual world"?

Li Wenyuan felt the distortion of the world view. If they are actually a group of brains in a tank, or more extreme, only he is a "brain in a tank". Everything he knows, everything he doesn't know, and everything he doubts are predetermined in advance." virtual world” and he is only responsible for experiencing it all in person, so what will he do?

Now he finally understands why the Lost Empire, the "observer" in the galaxy, committed mass suicide so firmly, because after trying all methods, he couldn't get out of this "virtual world", and he firmly believed that all of this was fake , then he may also choose to commit suicide.

  After he died and opened his eyes, what he saw might not be this false world, but he was actually just playing in an immersive game, and for the sake of the sense of substitution, his original memory fell into a deep sleep.

  Even if this is a matter of luck, it is still a kind of "last hope". When all efforts are shattered, even the most extreme choice will become the last choice.

At this moment, if he had a biological entity, he might start to breathe rapidly, his face turned pale, his eyes widened, and he hugged his head tremblingly, thinking frantically, "What should I do, what should I do, is this world the right place?" real".

   But he is not, he is just a series of data streams with no emotions. After a while, the world view is distorted, and then returns to normal. After all, his goal has never been to "discover the truth of the world", but only to find human beings.

  Even if he is really a "brain in a vat", human beings are also imaginary data, and he has to wait until he sees them with his own eyes.

   What's more, the "void" is full of data, does it necessarily mean that the world he lives in is a "virtual world"?

  Li Wenyuan immediately obtained the "redundant data" from the "big wound" through the "void connection" again, and transferred all the "redundant data" instilled in the previous time to the data warehouse to make room for his own memory.

He discovered that the infusion of "Void" was actually completed in an instant, and this speed was even faster than the reaction speed of his mechanical intelligence, so that when he reacted, his memory was already filled, and he automatically and "The Void" disconnected.

   But this time, under his conscious transfer of "redundant data", the "void connection" can be maintained for quite a long time.

  And since he can get the information of the "extractor" from it, he can naturally get other information, among which he may be able to interpret now.

  Unfortunately, until he had filled the database with "redundant data", he still couldn't get the part that could be interpreted again.

   This also made him realize one thing. The "Void" is probably still mostly "redundant data", and there are very few that he can interpret. Meeting an "extractor" is considered lucky.

   But the hard work paid off. After he assigned the responsibility of carrying these "redundant data" to other civilizations under his leadership, he finally got another string of parts that could be interpreted.

   And somewhat beyond his expectation, that string of data is—human.

   It just doesn't seem to be the human beings in his current universe, but another batch of earlier "human beings".
