Chapter 1144 The Double-edged Sword of Technological Progress
Because if it succeeds.
Genetic ascension shouldn't be like this.
Professor Yan Xin thought that the Heavenly Palace had been destroyed.
This shows that the path they are taking is wrong.
“Is this what happens when you take the wrong path?”
Professor Yan Xin couldn't help but think of his plan for spiritual ascension.
What happens if spiritual ascension fails?
Professor Yan Xin couldn't help but feel an inexplicable fear.
After all, scientific progress does not come without a price.
Just like our Industrial Revolution.
While developing, it also pollutes the environment.
This has caused many people to have excessive amounts of heavy metals.
This directly caused many people to become sick.
This is the price.
Then there is the birth of plastic.
It pollutes the human ecosystem.
When plastic was first invented, it was considered a great invention by humans.
Now we think of plastic as pollution.
Now we need to greatly reduce the use of plastic.
This is especially true for some environmental protection advertisements.
We are asked to cherish the environment and not litter.
Plastics, in particular, take hundreds of years to degrade.
For this reason, our drinking straws have become paper.
But when plastic first appeared.
But it's a Nobel Prize-level invention.
Several more Nobel Prizes were won from plastics.
But now plastic has become the biggest problem in our environment.
Especially the issue of microplastics.
Microplastics can now be found even in the Antarctic and the Arctic.
Also in the bodies of some fetuses and pregnant women.
Microplastics can also be detected.
This is irreversible damage.
We now have no way to deal with these microplastics.
Microplastics are already embedded in our bodies and the environment.
It cannot be cleaned up by any means.
This is how it accumulates from generation to generation.
I don’t know when it will break out.
This is one of the dangers of technological progress.
Although no one cares now.
But these dangers are real.
Another thing is genetically modified organisms.
Many people have heard of genetically modified foods.
The most famous and common one is genetically modified soybean.
Back then, people were terrified at the mere mention of it.
So much so that many foods now have non-GMO soybeans labeled on them.
Only then can people feel at ease.
Why should we be wary of genetically modified foods?
Because right now we humans know too little about genes.
Don't think that we can play with genes now.
But there are many things at the genetic level that we still don't understand.
If many things are directly made by genetic modification.
We have no way of knowing what the risks are.
Because these risks do not appear all at once.
It is possible that it is accumulated to future generations, and it may take many generations for it to explode.
Therefore, genetically modified foods always need to be treated seriously.
This is the harm that technological progress has done to us.
Obviously, technology has two sides.
It is impossible to have only advantages and no disadvantages.
The same was true when the Heavenly Court studied Black Tai Sui.
Ye Zhen sighed.
“That’s how technology works, if you want to make progress.
You don’t know whether the path you are taking in the future is the right one.
Just like our medicine is so advanced now.
Actually, it was in the last century.
During World War II.
Those crazy scientists disregarded human ethics and conducted various human experiments and obtained a lot of data.
This is how we have the medical technology we have today.
There is also cloning technology.
Gene editing of embryos.
It is forbidden at the human level because no one knows what kind of monsters will be created.
The same is true for the Black Tai Sui in Heaven.
When they were doing research, they were just thinking about increasing life expectancy.
But just like the information found in the ruins of heaven.
Their so-called great scientists are also some crazy people.
They have all been able to increase their lifespan to billions of years.
For us humans, this is an extremely long lifespan.
It is a longevity that is unimaginable to us.
After all, we humans only have a short hundred years to live.
In the myths and legends of many civilizations.
There are plots in which our human lifespan is shortened.
It is said that in the beginning we humans had a very long lifespan.
This is not unfounded.
It is possible that the lifespan of humans in ancient times was much longer than ours now.
After all, with the science and technology of heaven.
It is easy to break through hundreds of years.
Because for celestial beings, a lifespan of hundreds of millions of years is...
Hundreds of years are just a flash in the pan.
It has no effect on them.
To the celestial beings, human beings on earth are like ants.
But ants can bite people too.”
What Ye Zhen said was about his views on the evolution of technology.
Technological progress is a double-edged sword.
In fact, this is a question that everyone has been discussing.
Every time a new technology comes out, there will be such discussions.
Some viewers agreed.
"It's like short videos, how harmful they are to today's children."
"Yes, not to mention the children, even adults can spend an entire afternoon just brushing it."
“I don’t know where the time has gone.”
“In my opinion, short videos can now allow people to access more content.”
"Haven't you noticed that kids nowadays mature very early?"
"Kids nowadays are much smarter than when we were young."
Now we are all beneficiaries of technology.
It is impossible for us to hinder the progress of technology.
Ye Zhen continued.
“The people in Heaven must have been full of vigor and vitality back then.
Because they not only prevented natural disasters from happening.
Suppressed the way of heaven.
Black Tai Sui was also taken as a research object.
This is black technology that we can't even imagine.
But even so, they still failed.”
At this time, Ye Zhen was still in the space of the old site of Heaven.
I didn't worry at all about not being able to go out.
On the contrary, Ye Zhen wanted to stay in this space more.
Because of this space.
In Taoism, it is a paradise.
And it is the most advanced kind.
That is a place that even immortals find difficult to find.
Here are a lot of energies that Ye Zhen wants.
That mysterious energy that Ye Zhen named fairy energy.
Out of this place.
It is hard to say whether such a space can be found again.
In the 749th inning.
Song Xuan raised her eyebrows, and her oval face seemed to recall something.
"In some kind of science fiction."
"Will regard knowledge as a curse."
Ning Xiu of Xiuqing expressed her confusion, "Why is knowledge considered a curse?"
“Isn’t more knowledge better?”
Song Xuan shook her head. "That's not the case."
“Because it’s just like World War I and World War II.”
"It is the war with the highest number of deaths in human history."
"And the atomic bomb was created by humans themselves."
"Something that is enough to destroy humanity itself."
"If World War III occurs, our human civilization will inevitably be destroyed."
“So it’s set in some of those novels.”
"To avoid the destruction of humanity, all knowledge must be banned." (End of this chapter)
