Chapter 13 Astronomical Computer

"Big clock, why did you just say that you are just a machine?"

Li Qingyun sat down cross-legged.

Now, in this dark matter plane space, although there is nothing around him, he does not feel lonely or empty.

On the contrary, he felt very friendly here.

It was as if he was in his original rental house.

This is a territory that truly belongs to him, completely belongs to him!

"The celestial computer is a machine in itself."

The big clock answered without any hesitation.

"But, you should be beyond the scope of the machine, right?"

Li Qingyun was still confused.

"As the highest-tech crystallization of the super-god universe, your artificial intelligence system is absolutely extremely powerful. Stark's Jarvis, and even Ultron and Vision later, are probably not as smart as you, right?"

"What I possess is not wisdom, but knowledge."

"Knowledge?"

Li Qingyun repeated this word.

"Tell me, what are the specific differences?"

Li Qingyun was very curious about how the big clock positioned itself, and how it positioned Ultron and Vision.

"The Great Clock is the greatest celestial computer in the Supergod Universe. Since its birth two hundred thousand years ago, it has been used as the core information processor of the Kamigawa Civilization."

The big clock began to give Li Qingyun a detailed explanation.

"As a celestial computer, I have stored everything in the Kamigawa civilization's two hundred thousand years."

"Humanities, ideas, history, technology, imagination about the future, and many unrealized technological solutions!"

"It can be said that I am the Super God Universe, the highest crystallization of current technology."

"The big clock has a reserve of knowledge that surpasses all people and things in the current universe."

"So, you are the most powerful person in the universe at the moment. How come you are not smart?"

Li Qingyun couldn't help but start to interject.

Because in his opinion, a big clock that has accumulated such a huge amount of knowledge and mastered such advanced intelligence is clearly the most powerful mechanical life form!

"No, you got it wrong!"

"Where is wrong?"

Li Qingyun was puzzled.

"I am currently the strongest in the universe, but true wisdom is constantly surpassing!"

"..."

At this moment, Li Qingyun was stunned.

He finally grasped the key in the big clock's answer.

Wisdom is constantly transcending.

Perhaps the biggest difference between the big clock, or celestial computer, and humans and super soldiers comes from this.

"I was born during the period when the Divine River Civilization officially transcended the pre-nuclear civilization. I represent the highest technological crystallization of the Divine River Civilization."

"But for more than 200,000 years, every technological advancement has not been led by me!"

The big clock paused for a moment, and at the same time, a large number of images, pictures, etc. began to appear in the dark matter plane space.

"Twenty thousand years ago, Mr. Dinghei, the greatest scientist of the Kamigawa Civilization, created me."

"Two hundred thousand years ago, Dinghei formulated the super warrior plan to try to break through the limits of life, which is when the god-making plan began!"

"Twenty thousand years ago, due to Kieran's risky attempts, the first generation of super soldiers was officially born."

"After that, with the efforts of generations of scientists, super soldiers were upgraded from the first generation, to the second generation, the third generation, the divine body, the invincible body, the fourth generation divine body, the phantom body..."

"Every time these technologies were upgraded, the big clock was still the pinnacle of technology at that time, but every technological breakthrough came from the creation of life, not the creation of the big clock."

The big clock's explanation made Li Qingyun suddenly enlightened.

Why does the big clock say that it is just a machine? Why does it say that it only possesses knowledge, not wisdom?

Because the big clock only has the ability to record, analyze, simulate, and calculate, but it does not have the ability to create.

In the super-god universe, the big clock can only calculate the known universe, because the wider universe is beyond its knowledge.

In the super-god universe, the big clock can record the upgrade plan of the divine body, but it cannot break through the limits of the divine body to create a new divine body, because its calculations can only be made based on real-life data.

That's the limit for big clocks.

It is very powerful because its computing power and stored knowledge surpass all other celestial computers, surpass any gods and super warriors.

But it is also very weak, because it cannot rely on itself to transform the knowledge it possesses into entities for practice, let alone create something beyond its knowledge reserves.

The huge system it has allows it to provide powerful support for one, multiple or even an entire civilization, making it show off its power and be omnipotent.

But for such a huge system, if there is no controller, it will just be a machine placed in a corner. No matter how powerful it is, it will not be able to function and can only accumulate dust in the endless years.

The celestial computer and its owner have a mutually reinforcing relationship.

Because there are super soldiers who control the celestial computer, the celestial computer can do anything.

Because of the assistance of the celestial computer, super warriors can become gods who dominate a civilization or even the entire universe.

"Only those with true self-thinking can be called living entities."

"The Celestial Computer, from the moment it was created, did not have the ability to think for itself."

"We only conduct simulations and calculations within the known data!"

The big clock said, this is the commonality of all celestial computers in the super-god universe.

If you don't have the ability to think for yourself, you won't become a real living being. If you don't become a real living being, there won't be a situation where machines dominate life like in some science fiction movies.

It’s not that big clocks and other celestial computers can’t do this.

It's because their super computing power has already made them clearly realize that machines cannot surpass life.

Reason can create the best present, but it cannot expand the infinite future.

Only irrationality is the basis for creating everything.

Without irrational human thinking, there would be no emergence of human civilization.

Without irrational scientific attempts, modern science and technology would not have happened.

Without irrational creative ideas, there would be no leaps in scientific development one after another.

Dinghei, who created the Great Clock, has calculated and simulated the birth and development process of the entire universe.

How could I not understand the connection?

The big clock that records and records everything about the entire Kamigawa civilization naturally already understands all this.

Therefore, whether it is a large clock or other celestial computer, from the moment they are created, their rational thinking will also let them understand this.

Therefore, all celestial computers themselves are just machines.

Even if they have the knowledge reserves of the entire super-god universe and can provide all the optimal solutions to problems in an instant, they are still just machines that assist super soldiers and gods.
