Parallel Intelligence and Metauniverse

Feiyue Wang

Metauniverse: Conceptual Research and System Conception is a useful work on the exploration of Metauniverse, which is very helpful to stimulate everyone’s imagination of Metauniverse, which is the origin and essence of Metauniverse.

Since the second half of 2020, people have been asking me about metauniverse, especially the relationship between metauniverse and parallel intelligence. When Zuckerberg announced that his social networking site "Facebook" had changed its name to "Meta" on the eve of Halloween last year, MetaUniverse suddenly became a worldwide hot word, followed by "Trick or Treat" ("Flying Pig" or "Cutting Leeks" again)? "Hope or Hype"? "What exactly is Metauniverse?" Wait for all kinds of questions. I believe this book will help to answer such questions.

I once said that the Meta of the Meta universe is the meta of Metaphysics. Therefore, the essence of Metauniverse is "metaphysics", and its actual function is to stimulate everyone’s imagination and innovation ability. Therefore, not everyone should have their own meta-universe, but everyone should have their own dream of the meta-universe of the Arabian Nights.

"The Metaphysical means the Tao, while the physical means the device" is China’s ancient philosophical thought, but today’s meta-universe, DAO of blockchain, and various "device-like" ideas and algorithms of intelligent technologies, from Wiener’s Cybernetics to Cyberspace, from AI to deep learning, and from shadow system to parallel intelligence, have transformed this philosophical thought into technical requirements and engineering systems, as shown in the figure.

Parallelism and Metauniverse: "TRUE" and "Daoism" Towards a Smart Society

Western Bible "New Testament"? The first sentence at the beginning of the Gospel of John is "In the beginning, there was a Tao, and the Tao was with God". The forty-two chapters of China’s classic Laozi’s Tao Te Ching begin with "Tao gives birth to one, one life to two, two lives to three, and three lives to all things". The combination of the two just "metaphysically" depicts the inevitable process of intelligent technology in the future: 1) Tao in the early days, and Yuan Yuan in the early days, is the "circular causality" theory that gave birth to Cybernetics. DAO of blockchain and Meta of meta-universe are integrated into technology through the idea of "TRUE DAO". Put forward specific requirements for the trustworthiness, reliability, usability, Effective/Efficient efficiency of "TRUE", as well as the level and function of "DAO" (distributed/all-centered, automatic/autonomous, organization/action); 2) Dao Sheng Yi is the specific natural system and problem that we must face; 3) Lifetime two is the boundary and "small data" that we must face at the beginning of solving problems; 4) Two students give birth to three, that is, our "big data" generated by experience, models, "experiments", especially "computational experiments"; 5) All things are all kinds of targeted "deep intelligence" extracted from big data by intelligent methods; 6) All these, from the organization and action of the process of "small data-big data-deep intelligence", are attributed to "yuan",It must have its correspondence in the "meta-universe", so that the virtual and the real are unified and interact in parallel. Therefore, the parallel intelligent method based on ACP (Artificial Society, Computational Experiment, Parallel Execution) is inevitable, which integrates robot, blockchain and intelligent technology, changes the means of production, production relations and productivity, and enters a new stage of human social development.

The essence of all this is to try to transform the Attention and credit that could not be commercialized in the past due to the Miller number of individual cognitive ability and Dunbar circle of social cognitive capacity into new products that can be mass-produced and circulated on a large scale. This is the reason and motivation for us to study Metauniverse. We believe that if the correct meta-universe model succeeds, it will revolutionize the category of economic commodities. At the same time, it can also greatly expand the ways to improve social benefits, and will certainly accelerate the process from the industrial age to the intellectual age.

Since the early 1980s, when the Monte Carlo method and Gaussian random field were used to study material defects, I had the honor to embark on the academic research of designing, analyzing, experimenting and verifying physical systems by means of calculation in Zhejiang University. In the early 1990s, the "shadow system" method of using models as data generators and visualization tools was proposed to NASA, which is today’s digital twin idea. At the beginning of this century, the philosopher of science Karl? Under the influence of Popper’s "Three Worlds" thought, the Academy of Sciences put forward "Parallel System" and its parallel intelligence, as well as the corresponding ACP method and CPSS (Cyber-Physical-Social Systems) concept. I have always hoped that these studies will give birth to a new industrial revolution, promote smart enterprises and smart products, and start with the smart home system that we can’t live without in our daily life. Therefore, at the first China Home Appliances Technology Conference held in Shanghai in 2000, I made a special trip back to China to make a conference report on home appliances, their interconnection and industrial revolution, and thought that the Internet would lead to the fourth industrial revolution, namely Industry 4.0, and OSGi would start the fifth industrial revolution, namely Industry 5.0. In the same year, in cooperation with Guangdong Kekelong Electric Appliance Group, Chinese Academy of Sciences and the University of Arizona, the international R&D center and startup company were set up. In 2000 and 2001, research and system development related to cloud computing and Internet of Things were carried out, and it was fortunate to publish the opening articles in parallel, ACP and CPSS fields. These experiences,Let me have different thoughts and understandings about digital twins and meta-universe, so I believe that the research and exploration shown in this book will further promote the development and application of intelligent technology.

Metauniverse was conceived in Cyberspace, born in the book Mirror World, and became famous by the novel Avalanche. In the west, due to its great influence in the early stage, it once attracted the attention of the notorious Uanibomer, causing bloody cases, and finally converging on today’s Web3 and blockchain intelligence. My hope is that in the East, through parallel intelligence, Metauniverse will evolve to Qian Xuesen’s "spirit realm" technology, with one less word in its name and by going up one flight of stairs in its connotation. In the end, the intelligent science and technology system, which is a trinity of "mirror, mirror and spiritual realm", has become a new science and technology that is not only more "Chinese", but also more human and better serves the good of mankind.

After the Morey incident, NBA-related content can hardly be seen in the circle of friends. There seems to be a tacit understanding that everyone is silent about this foreign sports event. But maybe there is another reason. People in my circle have already taken to the society. Everyone is less exposed to express their thoughts and interests. No one has posted anything in the circle of friends, including myself, which has been visible for three days.

But I still want to write about Warriors, and describe my love for this team in words.

The beginning of the universe is the 14-15 season. With 67 wins in the regular season, it won the first record in the league. Curry won the first MVP trophy and the first All-Star three-point contest this season. After the playoffs, I won the championship through customs clearance. I still remember that on the morning of winning the championship, I was still studying college English, brushing my mobile phone, always paying attention to the competition situation, and I was disappointed that Iguodala won FMVP later. I was a cloud fan that year. I couldn’t watch a few football games in a season, but I was just a passer-by fan in Curry. I started to like him because my old classmate Chen Yixin sent one in the circle of friends after winning MVP in Curry: Curry, which is deserved. I was curious about who he was. Baidu read his information, read his highlights, and left a few eyes on the game. This player shot a beautiful arc in the air, and time seemed to stop. There was a sense of beauty that was very attractive. Today, I have to say that my eyesight is excellent, and I can actually pay attention to this epoch-making little man who changed the way the league played. At that time, fans were concentrated on two stars, namely Kobe Bryant and James. Kobe Bryant retired in the coming year at the end of his career. James had a large number of fans, including me. I was also his passerby fan, but now I am Zhan Hei, and my identity has been reversed.

15-16 season, 73 wins in the regular season, unanimous MVP, and the Warriors reached their first peak. Curry, Thompson, Barnes, Green and Iguodala formed the first-generation Five Small Sweeping Alliance of Death. However, this year, I was still a cloud fan, and I didn’t watch many football games. Occasionally, when I went to look for Xiaobai, he was watching the ball, and I could hear the explanation shouting that Curry was dribbling to find a touch. I made a clear analysis of how many times Curry dribbled before shooting and how high the hit rate was. In the game that I left occasionally that season, Curry dribbled with his legs crossed. Don’t stumble, it seemed like he was going to drop at any time, playing with the opposing defensive player, and making another unreasonable three-point. Damn it, thief handsome.

The momentum of the regular season is strong, entering the playoffs, all the way to the Western Conference. The west was almost planted in the hands of Thunder, and the Warriors were forced into a desperate situation 1-3. Later, the classic G6 Buddha was shining, and then G7 Curry was redeemed. Finally, he pushed the Thunder into the finals and faced the old enemy knight. Of course, I’m still not a witness to these competitions. I only paid attention to the results, but didn’t watch the whole process. There’s a voice on the Internet that the league has forced the game to be extended to seven games for the sake of ratings. I believe this may not be nonsense from netizens, because the next round of playoffs is the ugliest series ever witnessed.

In the finals, the warrior who struggled through the thunder killed the Cavaliers 3-1 before the blood on the blade was dried. Everyone thought that when the Warriors were destined to take the trophy home, ugly scenes were constantly staged, first hurdling, then reporting, the team’s defensive gate was suspended, and then the star was sent off for six crimes. When the news of Bogut’s injury came out, I felt a bad feeling in my heart, and my morale was declining. There are a lot of throwing and shoving movements, which make me feel queasy until now, so I begin to dislike the so-called "the charming son of heaven" James. The ugly final decision finally ended in Owen’s lore, leaving behind the Warriors fans, and I, a cloud fan, was full of loss and nausea. The 16-year total decision is a colorful and dramatic series in NBA history. This is also a series of dirty, unscrupulous, lacking in sportsmanship and extremely heavy off-court factors.

In the 16-17 season, Durant joined, and the Five Little Complete Bodies of Death were officially assembled. The historical five-person group was born. When space battleship set sail, there were many new names for warriors at this time. Hampton Five: composed of Curry, Durant, Thompson, Green and Iguodala, the three main attackers and Tsunami brothers are all historical scorers with scoring ability and explosive force. Two main defenders: Green DPOY, with super defensive ability, playing the fifth position in five small schools, the gate in the middle circle, the last line of the Warriors’ defense, and also the axis of the Warriors’ tactics. They are called sexy lotus officer, dealer, and have top passing ability and vision. Godara, coffin mamba, feign death in the regular season. Super single defense ability, quick and clean cutting skills are impressive. Each of these five people has the ability to handle the ball. The ball is flowing in their hands, constantly looking for the most suitable end point. What is the ultimate team, that is, their competitive posture.

In addition to Hampton Five, there are four famous hunters in Golden State. Except Curry, all four of the team have superb defensive ability, especially Thompson, but the No.2 position can be defended from 1 to 4. The impressive goal is: single defense of Brother Alphabet, and then direct blocking. Although Curry is the weak defensive ring of the Warriors, his hard defensive actions have to be respected.

The mysterious two elders refer to the coffins Mamba and Livingston, and Livingston is affectionately known as Karen Mok.

This year, the full-body warriors cut melons and vegetables all the way, and the teams in the whole league can only look behind them. But there is also a black spot. Pachulia is stepping on Leonard’s feet. I believe that healthy Spurs are not enough in front of the 17 Warriors.

Durant won the final FMVP. He deserved it, but it was also a pity for Warriors fans and Curry fans. In those years, I was most annoyed by Yang Yi’s argument of "two kings and four twos". I felt that he gave Nike smelly feet, collected money to talk and belittled Curry. This warrior is Curry’s team. He builds a system with his style of play. In every game, he keeps running marathons, running and catching the ball, and tearing open the defense of the other side. After Durant came, he reduced the ball right, reduced the previous three points after dribbling, increased the catch throw, and handed over the ball right to Green after half-time. He plays more rationally and executes tactics. The once crazy performance gradually disappeared. Sacrifice brings negation and contempt, which is unbearable.

In the 7-18 season, the magic ball theory was applied to the extreme, and the Rockets were still the home team of the Chinese people, and they triumphed all the way and won the first place in the league. Because those years were afraid of rockets, they temporarily played the role of "going black", "shooting black", "no pains, no gains". It rained again in the sky, which is a common expression for getting black.

The 41-point lead of the Warriors in the third game in the West proves that the death of five small men is invincible, but the bad news comes, Igoda is pulled back, and the death of five small men is missing a link. After that, it seems that they can’t play ball, losing two games in a row, and they all lose by small points. After losing Tianwang Mountain, the Warriors will be scattered by magic ball. Paul’s injury gave the Warriors a turn for the better. Finally, he scored two games in a row and finally swept the old enemy Cavaliers.

I was in the teaching and research section in the playoffs that year, and I was the only one who supported the Warriors with the Rockets fans and lonely Warriors fans.

A few goals in that year’s playoffs were still impressive, Jordan Bell’s crotch passed back, and Curry went around to catch the ball and shoot. In the face of Curry Love’s defense, he twisted his body and made a super-long three-pointer. In the third game, Durant’s 45-degree cold-blooded three-pointer shot the Cavaliers’ hope, and then Greencurry roared back and forth like a chick.

In the 18-19 season, when the warriors fell, the invincible warships also arrived in Hong Kong one day. I told my father from the beginning that I wanted to go to Oracle Bone Inscriptions Stadium in Oakland, USA to watch the curtain call of the stadium and watch the game of Death Five. May be the last year to see the death of the five small, next year, the team still don’t know how to change, and then really be fooled, five small become history, can no longer watch them run the ball.

This season, I watched the ball every day in the teaching and research section. I didn’t see the live broadcast, but I also watched the replay. This season, the Warriors suffered many injuries, and there were always people missing. In a game in which Curry was absent, Green spewed out the famous Green formula, which made Durant disheartened. At the end of this season, Sensitive Du didn’t work hard. He threw a few balls each game and scored single-digit points. It was found that the Warriors had a tactical adjustment, which allowed Durant to increase the waist to hold the ball and weaken Green. This tactic Durant could either deal the cards or throw himself.

At the beginning of the playoffs, in the first round, Warriors vs. Clippers, in order to extend the series and increase the number of games, the league made double-standard penalties on both sides, and the blow penalty scale of physical contact was simply incomprehensible. Beverly has a lot of vicious actions. Because of Curry’s foul trouble, he can’t be present for a long time. Without a big core, the Warriors can only use Durant all the time, which brings great hidden trouble for the next series.

After all, the Clippers were a weak team at that time, and then they met the Rockets, who were also old enemies for many years. The first four games were tied 2-2, and Durant was injured in the fifth game. The Warriors lost one core and their lives were on the line. The adjustment of the Warriors was timely, and they began to play pick-and-roll with Curry Green. The Rockets can’t play without Durant on the opposite side, and the warriors who are in pick-and-roll pass by. The Western Blazers’ double shots are one size smaller than the Warriors’ double shots, and they are swept out after natural defeat.

Coming to the final stage again, it’s actually very difficult for a warrior without a big core to be the defender, and there are also problems with Curry’s fingers that affect his feel. Then Leonard sank his shoulder and Rooney suffered a sternal fracture. Durant forced his return to achilles tendon rupture. Finally, Tielin chased Thompson, and Thompson landed unsteadily and the cruciate ligament broke. It’s a part of the game, and it’s out of control. At this point, the Warriors’ luck is exhausted, and Curry, the only strong scorer, is powerless.

After that, the warrior dispersed and embarked on reconstruction.

So many yards, it’s 10: 42 in the evening.

Finally, I want to say that the death of five small children is destined to be a strong stroke in NBA history. Warriors are also the team that I like to pay attention to all the time. My favorite goal in those five years was Curry’s cross-line guidance to Green, Iguodala took the opportunity to slip the bottom line, chasing dreams and throwing a dunk, which was smooth and tacit.
