Human nature is there.

"Will computers replace humans?"

——This is a hot topic of debate among computer experts at present, and it is also a concern of many ordinary people.

Many experts said that in today's era of rapid technological development, this will undoubtedly become a major crisis in the 21st century. And I once read an expert's analysis and found it quite meaningful. He said this: "Humans cannot be replaced by computers, because at least computers with autonomous consciousness have not yet been created." He believes that "autonomous consciousness" is an important factor for humans to conquer computers.

"Self-awareness", although I haven't studied it seriously, I am quite impressed with these four words. They have some philosophical undertones that make me think about them a lot.

I remember that it was a sunny early spring. Having not felt this warmth for a long time, I broke my usual habit of staying at home and went to the street to bask in the sun for a day, and I was still reluctant to part with the afterglow of the setting sun until the evening. At home at night, when I was happily humming a ditty and reminiscing about the good mood of the day, I was suddenly attracted by the sweeping machine that was working non-stop on the floor. Watching it rushing back and forth, I felt in my heart, "Does it have any perception of today's warm spring? Can it hum a little song to express its emotions when it feels happy?

Certainly not. And this may be the so-called "self-consciousness". The action mode of the robot is always monotonous and repetitive, and it is nothing more than switching between receiving instructions and completing instructions according to the established program. Humans are different. We will judge and adjust through our consciousness after receiving the instruction, and take different ways to complete the instruction according to our own situation.

Stepping into the modern fast-paced society, the way of thinking of human beings is being transformed and distorted. A strong sense of purpose leads to a progressively programmed lifestyle.

I once read a story about a traveler who met an old man trimming weeds on the train tracks. The old man told him that he didn't know where the railroad tracks lead, and that the company that asked him to clean the tracks had not given him any news for 50 years. He had been working outside for 50 years and never returned home. He always believed that as long as he worked, the company would Send money to the family's wife and children. After saying goodbye to the old man, the traveler continued to move forward and met another old man. Surprisingly, this old man said exactly the same thing as the old man just now, except that he was sent by the company to follow the previous one. The old man dismantled the track at the back.

Perhaps, this is the sad look of society when human thinking is getting closer and closer to being stereotyped. Who brought humanity to this situation? Never those computers and robots.

Get back the "self-awareness" that was abandoned in the corner, give yourself some attention, and occasionally become a folk artist, give yourself space, meditate quietly, know what you should do, or learn from the ancient literati. Mind, inspire words. - Aren't these the manifestations of human nature?

I believe that computers will not replace human beings, and I also believe that human beings can firmly grasp "self-awareness", the treasure given to human beings by God. I have always believed that human nature exists.
