Homo sapiens - Chapter 657 Sociology of Technology

Galaxy Year 11, March 5th.

Saturn Galaxy-Titan.

This is one of the living planets under the Saturn Colonization Branch. The Homo sapiens company, which has obtained the life metal technology, has reached an extremely high level in planet transformation and construction.

For a planet like Titan, it only takes about half a year to complete the initial transformation.

However, Titan’s gravity is not suitable for humans, so only some synchronized robots are working here.

Li Qingye planned to come to the Saturn Colonial Branch to inspect, and naturally it was impossible to inspect only the Civilization Fire Scientific Research Base project.

This time he came to Saturn for a week-long inspection.

The first stop is Titan.

At this time, there is a huge artificial star ring on the equator of Titan, and the pillars of the star ring penetrate deep into the formation of Titan.

The material used to build the star ring was “borrowed” from the omnic civilization database. This material is similar to six-claw silicon steel. Its core components are silicon, aluminum, calcium, and iron. The material is called “Yongji Alloy.”

The name Yongji Alloy comes from the omnics, because this alloy has become the “eternal basic material” by the omnics.

Li Qingye appeared in Starlink’s spaceport with several assistants through a synchronous robot.

There are Yongji alloy components everywhere here. This material can be widely used in omnic civilization and naturally has its advantages.

As the basic material of the interstellar era, it usually has several characteristics, namely, abundant raw materials, easy production and processing, and the ability to carry out various secondary modifications.

Yongji Alloy is obviously such a material.

This material is made into a high-temperature resistant alloy by doping 0.63% carbon and adding 0.041 molybdenum, which can withstand 5038 degrees Celsius without melting.

Otherwise, the star ring pillars made of this material would not be able to penetrate tens of thousands of meters underground.

After coming down from the spaceport, he came to the ancient city on the surface of Titan.

The core job of the Eternal Layer is mining, and it also works part-time as a scientific research base.

The local city manager Augustus introduced him: “Chairman, this is the nano mining airship.”

A huge airship was flying slowly in the orange sky.

This airship is actually the same model as the Homo sapiens company’s transport airship on Earth, but even if it is the same model, the payload of this airship is several times that of the same model on Earth.

This is because Titan’s atmospheric concentration is about 1.5 times that of Earth, and Titan’s gravity is about the same as that of the moon. These two factors add up to naturally increase the payload of the transport airship.

“Nano mining? Is it using living metals?”

Augustus explained with a smile: “In this part of our mining area, life metals are put in, and then the mined minerals are turned into cubes, and finally transported by transport airship to the ancient city for deep processing.”

Li Qingye is not too worried about the application of new technologies. After all, Homo sapiens company is different from the free world.

The free world may deliberately not launch new technologies and use new technologies as technical reserves in order to avoid the rapid elimination of production lines and loss of money.

The Homo sapiens company has transcended the capital operation stage of company development and entered a new stage of self-circulation.

As long as new technologies can improve productivity and development levels, the management of Homo sapiens companies will not refuse to innovate technologies.

This is caused by the essential difference between the two.

Li Qingye watched as a transport airship transported a large amount of minerals to the deep processing factory in Eternal City. The mining efficiency was several orders of magnitude faster than before.

If mining is carried out at full capacity, it is estimated that it will not take more than ten years to hollow out Titan’s crust and expose the underground magma layer.

Li Qingye turned his head and looked at Augustus: “The ecosystem of Titan must be maintained. After all, it is a living planet and has great reference value.”

Augustus quickly replied: “Chairman, the Saturn Colonization Branch has made relevant plans to ensure that mining activities will not seriously affect the original life of Titan.”

“That’s good.”

Half an hour later, Li Qingye arrived at the Titan Biological Research Institute in Eternal City.

There are various samples of primitive organisms on Titan. Currently, the primitive organisms on Titan are all microorganisms, and no multicellular organisms have appeared.

This point has a high reference value for studying the evolution of life on the planet.

After all, there are many planets that can give birth to microorganisms, but there are very few planets that can evolve complex multicellular organisms.

Currently, there are only Earth and Venus in the solar system, which have complex multicellular organisms. The multicellular organisms under the moon are relatively primitive. This is probably related to energy and resources.

Titan also did not evolve multicellular organisms, which is equivalent to the early Earth.

Dr. Richard, who is in charge of the institute, saw Li Qingye coming in person, with uncontrollable excitement on his face: “Mr. Chairman, I am very happy to meet you.”

Li Qingye shook hands with the other party: “Hello, Dr. Richard! You should get used to working with a synchronous robot!”

“Fortunately, it’s just that it’s easy to confuse the main body and the synchronized robot.” Dr. Richard spread his hands helplessly.

Li Qingye deeply felt the same about this point.

In the early synchronized robots, the synchronization experience was relatively poor, but there was no confusion between the main body and the synchronized robot.

But later, with the advancement of technology, synchronous robots can not only transmit sounds and images synchronously, but also feel touch, smell, and taste synchronously. In addition, the head of the synchronous robot can 100% simulate the user’s face and face. expression.

This has caused many people to confuse the main body and the synchronous robot during long-term use of the synchronous robot.

Even if some signs are made for differentiation, there is still no way to completely change the confusion.

In order to reduce related mental illnesses, the company has adopted strict commuting times for employees who use synchronous robots to work, and has also extended their vacation time.

As long as the regular use of synchronized robots, coupled with long vacations, mental illness can be effectively curbed.

The impact of a technology on society during its application is a sociology that must be studied clearly.

Many technologies are a double-edged sword.

For example, Internet technology is a typical double-edged sword, and the sociology of technology studies how to apply technology, reduce the side effects of technology, and improve the positive effects of technology.

Why is it that after human civilization entered the 21st century, demons appeared in various regions?

The reason is that the sociology of technology is not up to par, and the side effects of technology during its application have not been effectively contained, and have even been amplified by forces and groups with ulterior motives.

In Li Qingye’s view, the sociology of technology is as important as technology itself.

The consequence of applying technology without a bottom line is to form a social atmosphere without a bottom line, leading to the development of civilization going astray.
