Chapter 3635

Shiler stood up again and came to the wine cabinet. He poured a glass of wine for both of them, placed the wine glass in front of Strange and said: "It is very difficult for pure logical life to break through its own innate limitations. If they ignite the fire of the soul and have emotions, the emotional module will occupy their computing power, disturb their judgment, and let them lose their most proud logical calculation ability. You can't have both fish and bear's paw."

"A super artificial intelligence without emotions, even if their wisdom can understand the needs of intelligent life, they will pursue efficiency. Even if they don't force intelligent life to give up emotions that affect efficiency, they can completely manufacture new mechanical life to meet efficiency needs. Then, mechanical life will become more and more, until it becomes the main ethnic group of this civilization. Just like the Kree Empire."

"A civilization ruled by artificial intelligence without a soul will eventually become a mechanical civilization, because robots are the subjects he needs to meet efficiency needs. And those ordinary carbon-based organisms that cannot meet efficiency needs may be kept in captivity, or may be directly eliminated. But no matter which one, there is no future."

"Letting humans rule humans will never be fair. But precisely because it is unfair, everyone is fighting for it. Fighting for a better life for themselves and their families can greatly stimulate their potential, making most people ambitious and full of vitality. This is the so-called 'poverty leads to change'."

"If fairness truly arrives, they don't have to think about anything, don't have to manage anything, just follow the arrangements step by step. Everyone has no room to fight for. The instinct to survive will begin to degenerate, and creativity will also weaken, until it becomes a complete burden."

"Since you know. Then why did another you tacitly allow such things to happen?"

Shiler picked up the wine glass and walked back to his seat and said: "Let's assume—if you are like other yous in other universes, you lost your proud hands in a traffic accident. In order to seek medical treatment, you spent all your savings, and you are destitute. Living a difficult life."

"At this time, artificial intelligence unified the Earth. Not only ended your wandering life, gave you a place to live, arranged a job for you that you have the ability to complete and can bring you good positive feedback. You don't have to worry about your livelihood anymore, and you live a stable life. Don't you think this is good?"

Strange didn't speak, he just drank a sip of wine silently. Shiler said: "On issues related to ordinary people, every Shiler has this view. For us, inferring and foreseeing the future is easy. We roughly know what will happen in the future, and we also have ways to deal with these things."

"But for ordinary people, they value what they can get right now more. Food to fill their stomachs, a warm place to live, suitable jobs, etc."

"If there is a method now that can satisfy these needs of theirs to the greatest extent, even if there may be harm in the future, I will not stop it. Because this is what they want."

"For example, letting Brainiac rule the Earth can immediately make material distribution relatively fair, greatly improving the lower limit of ordinary people's living standards. Even if it may lead to mechanical crises and various problems in the future. I will not oppose it."

"Also, for example, this time. Establishing a multiverse magic school. It can be foreseen that we can seize the opportunity and have a beautiful future. But this may damage their current interests, and I will not try my best to promote it."

"Essentially, the elites who can foresee the future in this world do not have the right to choose for most ordinary people under the banner of wisdom. This is also meaningless."

"We were originally one of them, we need this society. Everything we do is for the main body of this civilization. I will suggest those who claim to be for some people's good but always force them to make choices to see a doctor."

"Haven't you done this before?"

"I didn't force a choice," Shiler shrugged and said: "I just made my choice as an ordinary person. Even if this affects many people, it's not my fault, right? I cast my vote, someone wants to follow the vote, I can't just eliminate them all, right?"

"I think our original way of trading with demon gods is unfair, and I also think we should have more energy, so I went to persuade you and Loki to change the way of trading with demon gods; I think globalization and transportation system reform will be more conducive to improving living standards, so I went to persuade my friends Tony and Peter to study the technology of the air transport system. They followed my vote, and then more ordinary people saw the benefits here and followed my vote. But this is not mandatory."

"When the air transport system was established, there were many protesters all over the country. I also went to understand what they were protesting about, and changed it as much as possible. For example, the employment problem brought about by updating the transportation system was solved by adding safety posts for human supervision and perfect education and training and setting up job transfer models, didn't the protests gradually decrease and disappear?"

"If they don't follow my vote, governments and people in various regions of the world will definitely turn the world upside down. Especially governments of various countries, it is very difficult for most governments in the world to accomplish one thing, and it is too simple to ruin one thing. They didn't do that, which means they were driven by interests or public opinion, and it was not me who forced them."

"The universe next door is the same. The Justice League has always felt that human rule is not good, and it is better for Brainiac to come. I also cast a vote for Brainiac. In the end, the vast majority of ordinary people accepted this way. If they didn't accept it, after the war ended, they could actually continue to fight Brainiac to the end. Since they didn't, it proves. They also think Brainiac is good."

"As for this time, aren't I trying hard to figure out whether building a magic school is good or not? You have to give me some time to investigate the candidate's background, right?"

"Yes, I know, there was no such link before. That's because most of the above things belong to psychology and sociology, which belong to my professional field, so I can figure it out and make a decision soon. But this time it's not."

"Alright, you have to tell me, my hometown, that is, the place where I stayed before coming to your world, has no magic, right?"

"Then what is going on with Hogwarts?" Strange asked.

"I said don't shout the big name," Shiler raised his voice and sat up straight and said: "That is the content in a novel. I like that novel very much and am deeply impressed by it, so I fictionalized a magic academy in the spiritual world, this doesn't mean I am really a magic expert!"

"Not to be humble, my magic level is on par with my scientific research level—I only know how to screw in light bulbs!"

The two stared at each other. Strange moved his gaze away first. He sat in the chair and thought for a while, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Then he took out a document from under the table.

"You make sense," Strange stretched out a finger and said: "I seem to know how to deal with the congressional inquiry."

He just wanted to write something on it, but turned the document over and over again, and finally threw it aside. He took a new notebook from the side and began to write and draw.

Three days later. In the preparation room on the east side of the Capitol building, Nick reached out and straightened the recorder on Strange's collar. Complaining a bit: "You really should wear surgical clothes on stage. Let that group of hypocrites see who has saved many lives."

"No need," Strange shook his head and said.

Nick looked at him with some surprise and said: "You weren't complaining that you had no bottom in your heart before? How can you be so confident now?"

Strange took the speech draft from the table next to him, and while walking towards the exit, said: "I went to see a psychologist. The effect is good."

Nick turned around, watching Strange walk into the chamber from the passage with big strides, shook his head, feeling a bit inexplicable.

The moment Strange entered the passage, the flashlights were as bright as a nuclear explosion. Two people walked out of another preparation room next to them, one was a professional lawyer hired by S. H. I. E. L. D. for Strange, and the other was a recorder. Essentially, they were here to pick faults in this inquiry and leave evidence for later wrangling with Congress.

Strange didn't look at them, walked straight in, and sat in the first row on the east side of the circular chamber. Directly opposite was a row of arc-shaped tables in the opposite direction, where the congressmen of this inquiry meeting sat.

Generally speaking, the word inquiry is only used for congressmen to inquire about high-level national officials, such as congressmen inquiring about the president, congressmen inquiring about the vice president, and congressmen inquiring about a certain official of a certain department, and is not used for government and private dialogue. The dialogue between the government and private companies is generally called a "hearing".

However, Kamar-Taj is not a company. This organization doesn't even exist in human society at all. Let alone the Sorcerer Supreme.

Strange's official status as Sorcerer Supreme is actually an employee of the Avengers under S. H. I. E. L. D. That is to say, Strange is representing S. H. I. E. L. D. to accept the congressional inquiry. It's just because S. H. I. E. L. D. director Nick doesn't understand magic at all, and congressmen also know that he is too difficult to deal with and don't want to deal with him, so they named Strange.

If it weren't for the fact that Strange really wanted to promote the magic school, he wouldn't have come. Kamar-Taj is in China, what qualifications does the US Congress have to inquire? If you have anything, go find the East to talk about it.

Nick actually came too. He sat on Strange's right, mainly to help Strange bear part of the pressure. He spent a lot of effort to clear the relationship and enter the venue. According to the ideas of that group of congressmen, they wouldn't even let him enter Washington today.

In their view, Strange was a surgeon before, and later became a magician, what does he know about politics? It's better to let him accept the inquiry to find flaws. If Nick were allowed to come, there would be several more layers of dirty words carved on the walls of the Capitol chamber.

But as soon as the two came in, the congressmen found a problem—the old oil Nick looked a bit nervous. Instead, Strange looked calm and unhurried.

Is this the concentration of the Sorcerer Supreme?
