Schiller stood up again and walked to the wine cabinet. He poured a glass of wine for each of them, placed the glass in front of Strange and said, "It is very difficult for purely 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 and disrupt their judgment, which will make them lose their most proud logical computing ability. You can't have your cake and eat it too."
"Even if super artificial intelligence without emotions can understand the needs of intelligent life, they will still pursue efficiency. Even if intelligent life is not forced to give up emotions that affect efficiency, new mechanical life can be created to meet the needs of efficiency. Then, there will be more and more mechanical life until it becomes the main ethnic group of this civilization. Just like the Kree Empire."
"A civilization ruled by soulless artificial intelligence will eventually become a mechanical civilization, because robots are the people it needs to meet its efficiency needs. Ordinary carbon-based organisms that cannot meet its efficiency needs may be raised by it, or they may be directly eliminated. But either way, there is no future."
“It will never be fair to let humans rule over humans. But precisely because it is unfair, everyone is fighting for it. Striving for a better life for themselves and their families can greatly stimulate their potential and make most people ambitious and energetic. This is what is called seeking change when one is poor.”
"If fairness truly comes, they don't have to think about anything, they don't have to worry about anything, they just have to follow the arrangements step by step. No one has any room to fight for it. The instinct for survival will begin to degenerate, and creativity will weaken until it becomes a complete burden."
"Since you knew that, why did the other you allow this to happen?"
Schiller picked up his glass and walked back to his seat and said, "Let's assume that you, like yourself in other universes, lost your hands, which you are so proud of, in a traffic accident. You spent all your savings to seek medical treatment, and you are destitute. It's hard to make ends meet."
"At this time, artificial intelligence has ruled the earth. Not only has it ended your wandering life, it has also given you a place to live and arranged a job for you that you are capable of completing and can bring you good positive feedback. You no longer have to worry about your livelihood and can live a stable life. Do you think this is good?"
Strange didn't say anything, he just took a sip of wine in silence. Schiller said: "Every Schiller has the same view on issues related to ordinary people. For us, it is easy to infer and predict the future. 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 more what they can get right now. Food to fill their stomachs, a warm place to live, a suitable job and so on."
"If there is a way to meet their needs to the greatest extent, even if it may cause harm in the future, I will not stop it. Because this is what they want."
"For example, if Brainiac rules the Earth, it will immediately allow for a relatively fair distribution of materials, greatly improving the minimum standard of living for ordinary people. Even if it may lead to various problems such as the mechanization crisis in the future, I will not object."
"For example, this time we are establishing a multiverse magic school. It is foreseeable that we can seize the initiative and have a bright future. However, this may damage their current interests, and I will not try my best to promote it."
"In essence, the elites in this world who can foresee the future have no right to make choices for the majority of ordinary people under the banner of wisdom. This is also meaningless."
"We are one of them, and we need this society. Everything we do is for the main body of this civilization. I would advise those who claim to be doing good for certain people but always force choices for them to see a doctor."
"Haven't you ever done that?"
"I didn't force myself to choose," Schiller shrugged. "I just made my choice as an ordinary person. Even if it affects a lot of people, it's not my fault. I cast my vote, and some people want to follow my vote. I can't just eliminate them all, right?"
"I think the way we originally traded with the Demon God was unfair, and I think we should have more power, so I persuaded you and Loki to change the way we traded with the Demon God; I think globalization and innovation in the transportation system will be more conducive to improving living standards, so I persuaded my friends Tony and Peter to study the technology of the air transportation 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 transportation system was established, there were many protests all over the country. I also tried to understand what they were protesting about and tried to change it as much as possible. For example, the employment problems caused by the renewal of the transportation system were solved by adding safety positions with human supervision, improving education and training, and setting up role models for job transfers. Didn't the protests gradually decrease and disappear?"
"If they don't follow my vote, governments and people in all regions will definitely make a scene. Especially governments. It's very difficult for most governments in the world to accomplish something, but it's very easy to mess it up. The fact that they didn't do this means that they were driven by interests or public opinion, and I didn't force them."
"It's the same in the universe next door. The Justice League has always felt that human rule is not feasible, and that Brainiac is better. I voted for Brainiac as well. In the end, the vast majority of ordinary people accepted this approach. If they didn't accept it, they could actually continue to fight Brainiac to the death after the war. Since they didn't, that proves it. They also think Brainiac is good."
"As for this time, I'm trying to figure out whether building a magic school is a good idea. 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 are my professional fields, so I can understand and make a decision quickly. But not this time."
"Well, do you really want me to tell you that my old home, where I lived before coming to your world, has no magic?"
"What about Hogwarts?" Strange asked.
"I told you not to mention my name." Schiller raised his voice and sat up straight. "That's from a novel. I liked the novel very much and was deeply impressed by it, so I made up a magic school in the spiritual world. This doesn't mean that I'm really an expert in magic!"
"To be frank, my level of magic is about the same as my level of scientific research - I can only screw in a light bulb!"
The two of them stared at each other. Strange looked away first. He sat in a chair and thought for a while, and suddenly an idea came to him. Then he took out a document from under the table.
"You make sense." Strange held up a finger and said, "I think I know how to respond to Congress's questioning."
He was about to write something on it, but he flipped through the document again and again, and finally threw it aside. He took a new notebook from the side and started writing and drawing.
Three days later. In the preparation room on the east side of the Capitol Chamber, Nick reached out and adjusted the recorder on Strange's collar. He complained, "You really should wear surgical gowns on stage. Let those hypocritical hypocrites see who saved many lives."
"That's not necessary." Strange shook his head.
Nick looked at him in surprise and said, "Didn't you complain about being unsure before? Why are you so confident now?"
Strange grabbed the speech from the table next to him and said as he walked towards the exit, "I went to see a psychiatrist. It helped."
Nick turned around and watched Strange stride into the meeting room from the passage. He shook his head, feeling a little puzzled.
The moment Strange entered the passage, the flash lights lit up like a nuclear explosion. Two people came out of another preparation room next to it. One was a professional lawyer hired by SHIELD for Strange, and the other was a recorder. In essence, they came to find faults in this questioning and leave evidence for later disputes with Congress.
Strange didn't look at them, but walked in directly and sat in the first row on the east side of the circular conference room. Opposite him was a row of curved tables in the opposite direction, where the congressmen who were attending the inquiry sat.
Generally speaking, the word "questioning" is only used when a congressman questions the country's top leaders, such as a congressman questioning the president, a congressman questioning the vice president, or a congressman questioning a certain official in a certain department. It is not used for dialogues between the government and the private sector. Dialogues between the government and private companies are generally called "hearings."
However, Kamar-Taj is not a company. This organization does not even exist in human society. Not to mention the Sorcerer Supreme.
The official identity of Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme, is actually an employee of the Avengers under SHIELD. In other words, Strange accepted the congressional questioning on behalf of SHIELD. It was just because Nick, the director of SHIELD, did not understand magic at all, and the congressmen knew that he was too difficult to deal with, so they named Strange.
If Strange didn't really want to promote the magic school, he wouldn't come. Kamar-Taj is in China. What right does the US Congress have to question it? If you have anything to say, go to Dongda.
Nick was actually here too. He sat to Strange's right, mainly to help Strange take some of the pressure. He had to work very hard to get into the meeting. If those congressmen had followed their ideas, they would not have let him enter Washington today.
In their view, Strange was a surgeon before and later became a magician. What does he know about politics? Let him be questioned so that they can find loopholes. If Nick were to come, the walls of the Capitol would have to be engraved with several layers of swear words.
But as soon as the two came in, the congressmen noticed something was wrong - the experienced Nick seemed a little nervous. On the contrary, Strange seemed calm and composed.
Is this the concentration of the Supreme Master?
