Chapter 1670: Eleven. Shooting down the meniscus (3)

"Is it the so-called "system tree"?"
Marseille, who had been exposed to related concepts from De Munster, is no stranger to such topics. Until now, he still remembers Demonster's helpless and sad tone.
The development of technology has its context, that is, the so-called "system tree", no one can escape.
The technology patent of the empire is the branch of the branch. If you want to go to the next new technology, you will inevitably encounter the level called
patent
. No matter what method is used, no one can escape.
"You also know..."
Dr. Gasquet smiled bitterly, and then said:
"Technological development is indeed like the growth of a big tree, with the'past technology' as the accumulation, it continues to grow and improve. Now because of the patents of the Empire, the growth of this tree has stalled. The disadvantages of patents In addition to hindering the development of technology, the most important thing is the destruction of people's hearts...It can be said that it is'technical evil'."
"The evil of technology..."
Chewing on words he had never thought of or heard, Marseille showed a confused expression.
In his cognition, no, it should be said that most people’s common sense is that technology is technology, and there is no so-called good and evil in itself. It is the people who master and use these technologies who have the concept and specific behavior of good and evil. .
Only intelligent life possesses gods, and only intelligent life possesses good and evil.
Someone will condemn the perpetrator with a knife, but no one will condemn the knife. The soldiers on the battlefield were shot by bullets, and the soldier's relatives and friends would resent the enemy soldiers who fired and the dead merchants who made arms sales, but would not resent that bullet.
The truth is the same.
Technology is technology. Like props in people’s hands, there are no ideas and no claims. They are made just for being
used.
It is a living person who decides how to use tools and technology.
Is it wrong to say "technical evil" or something?
"'Technology itself has no good or evil'-you think so. I admit that this big premise itself is not wrong. According to the occasion and needs, technology can be good or evil, whether it is good or evil, yes Determined by the hearts of the people."
Dr. Gasquet shrugged and looked at Marseille, as well as Anrietta and Louis who were attracted by their discussion.
"But ah, technology is also born through human thinking, practice, investment, and accumulation. In this process, it will be dyed with good and evil. It is also possible to cut technology and human heart from good and evil. It is a one-sided view."
It is also a knife. The knife that cuts fruit may be used for murder, but its original purpose is to facilitate people to handle fruit or other daily uses. In contrast, trench daggers can barely cut fruit and cut meat, but their job is to kill people. The design concepts and uses of both have a clear will and direction.
In order to facilitate the goodness of people's lives;
In order to take away the evil of others' lives;
"Actually, according to the specific environment and usage, more complex and detailed classification can be made, but in general, "technology" is just an abstract concept, is an uncertain clump, when the technical staff At the moment of infusion and usage, the technician's own good and evil are also injected into the technology, giving it a clear form."
In order to make people's lives more convenient and beautiful technology, for more efficient killing technology, the two can never be confused.
"Returning to the patent system of the Empire, the so-called "patents" and "intellectual property rights" should initially protect the rights of inventors, use the benefits brought by the patent system to stimulate invention and creation, and promote social progress. At the beginning, It has indeed achieved such an effect."
During the rise of the consortium, various inventions and creations really facilitated people's lives. At that time, a large number of new technologies and things, including the patent system, effectively improved social production, regardless of their motives. This cannot be denied.
but--
"Looking at the scene in the venue, who would think that it is based on acts of good faith?"
Dr. Gasquet pouted at the downcast experts and scholars, and the three teenagers shook their heads silently.
What kind of good faith is clearly a monopoly of knowledge and technology, using the first-mover advantage to block the possibility of all latecomers catching up with themselves, and at the same time using the patent in hand to squeeze.
"Seek wealth, maintain advantages, contain opponents, and manipulate the technological development of other countries-the disadvantages of the patent system and advanced technology are all clear to you. I want to add one more here-fundamentally destroying countries Inheritance of technical talent development, let the world-wide technology grow and develop according to their own intentions."
If the process of technological development is likened to a big tree, then the patent system of the empire is scissors and wire, and the technical exchange meeting is fertilizer and water. Use the patent system to cut off the branches and leaves that you don't like, twist the branches into the way you like, and then use technical exchange meetings to draw together and embrace the technical personnel of various countries according to the situation and conditions.
There is no need to buy, no intimidation, there is a simpler and more effective way.
"'Do you want technology','Want to touch a higher level of knowledge','Cooperate with us'-as long as this sentence, I believe that more than half of the technicians present here even sell their souls to the devil willing."
"But you, as a technician, and a unit supported by the state, conduct relevant research within your country, and the Empire can't forcefully interfere. If you ignore the patent system and continue to study, there will always be--"
"This is really a dynamic and fearless opinion. But here is the issue of the "disrupted talent development" mentioned earlier. Basically, the knowledge of our generation has been lacking and blank everywhere. And also have to face the constraints of patents. If nothing happens, the next generation of technicians will also face the same problem. And then the empire will inevitably release more new technologies and theories, and the knowledge they have accumulated is blank. There must be more missing parts than our generation. In the long run, the technical personnel of all countries want all achievements and breakthroughs, and they must accept the "further guidance" of the empire. The empire can use this to grasp the technological development trends of various countries. You can arbitrarily counteract and attract technical personnel from all over the world. The technological development and civilized progress of the world are tantamount to potting plants that the empire is free to manipulate. How and how it will develop depends on the empire's ideas and needs."
What does this follow?
Only Marseille's cluttered mind was left with this sentence.
The former part can also be called science, even though it is a little ahead, but it is not incomprehensible, but the latter part... in the best way to say it is also "no different from delusion".
The use of patents to curb the technological development of other countries is already exaggerated enough. Now it is actually said that it is necessary to control the progress and development direction of civilization and history according to the needs of the empire. This is out of the realm of science and is simply a supernatural or unrealistic delusion. I always advertise rational thinking and look at myself and the world's empire with a scientific eye, and there is such a crazy idea-
"They are not delusions."
Dr. Gasquet sneered.
"Empire and the emperor are always calm and rational, always on the right path. You never think that the emperor will be delusional and make mistakes?"
"Even if you say so, I..."
"Then let me put it another way, what is "delusion"? What is "science"? Is it possible to achieve science? Then in the use of cold weapons, or in an older age, even the concept of gunpowder In the era of existence, put forward the concept of "automatic rifle", 80% will be treated as a maniac or delusion. Can one say that the concept of "automatic rifle" is wrong, is it an unrealistic delusion? Judging science and delusion The standard and basis of the boundary is not'can it be achieved'."
Ordinary people, as well as the vast majority of technical personnel and scientists, in addition to "known knowledge", "perhaps what science and technology can do in a few centuries" is the upper limit of cognition. .
For people who don’t know the existence of gunpowder and metallurgical technology only stays at the level of forging, "guns" are like magic wands in fairy tales or myths, delusions of children and madmen~EbookFREE.me~ In the era of bolted rifles, semi-automatic and fully automatic rifles have become "future technologies."
In other words, for things beyond their cognition and imagination, people can only refuse to recognize them as "science".
"Science and scientific development of the empire are the same. When we develop from the bottom up, we cannot recognize higher-level knowledge, and we cannot accept the method of turning impossible into possible beyond cognition, so we have to use "negation". Resistance to the empire’s plan ahead of us for hundreds or even thousands of years."
That is not "delusion" or madness.
That is downright science.
Because it is too far ahead of the times, it is beyond the common sense of ordinary people and cannot be understood and shared by others. It belongs only to the empire and only belongs to the "science" of the emperor.
"This is also one of the reasons for trying to imitate the imperial technology. Even if there is an example reference, even if you can disassemble and test it at will, you even know the core principles, but because of the difference in cognition and susceptibility to technology. A failed product is a nonsense imitation. To go further, one must join the empire's technical system and accept'further guidance'."
"That is, a sustainable institution, progress-bottleneck-open technology and co-opting-progress-bottleneck. This institution will not stop until the empire unites the world."
All the puzzles are put together, no need to continue to explain, Marseille has also learned the operation principle and various details of this plan.
But he was not happy or proud.
There is nothing happy at all.
Even if you know and understand, nothing can change.
Not to mention the individual, even the country or the entire world, all efforts can not subvert this cycle of implementation of malicious.
