My thoughts on watching "Interstellar" from a philosophical perspective

1. The origin of life: The picture at the beginning shows cell division, from a single cell to multiple single cells. 1 minute 22 minutes 44 minutes 8 Infinite division, the birth of infinite single-cell bodies There is something worth thinking about here: even if the cells that divide are still the same single cells, why will they evolve into various different organisms? That's because the divided single cells absorb different substances and impurities (food sources), causing mutations. The mutated single cells then recombine with other cells to give birth to new species. (Hybridization stage) The distance between cells is too close and there is no regular movement. This is the chaotic stage. Hybridization and recombination form various different species in the future. So why didn’t subsequent species hybridize and recombine? This problem is very simple: because later species have their own groups (you can think of it as a civilization period, just like humans do not find animals as companions, the same reason.), and have territories, they will no longer be like cells. The stage is so confusing. Origin of species: By dividing itself and constantly replicating itself, groups evolve from individuals to expand the scope of life. Species will evolve, and new species will form after accumulation of mutations in genes and phenotypes. Microorganisms are the earliest "inhabitants" of the earth. If the history of the evolution of the earth to this day is condensed into one day, the birth of the earth is at zero o'clock in the 24 hours, then the first inhabitants of the earth-anaerobic heterotrophic bacteria were born at 7 o'clock in the morning; around 13 o'clock in the afternoon, bacteria appeared Aerobic heterotrophic bacteria; fish and land plants are produced at 22:00 in the evening; while humans do not appear until the last minute of the day. In nature, there live a large class of tiny creatures that are invisible to the naked eye. Whether it is bustling modern cities, fertile vast fields, rarely visited mountain tops, or the vast depths of the ocean, they can be found everywhere. This large group of tiny "residents" is called microorganisms. Together with animals and plants, they form a biological army, making nature appear full of vitality. The kingdom of microorganisms is a real "Lilliputian". The "subjects" here belong to several representative families such as bacteria, actinomycetes, fungi, viruses, viroids, rickettsiae, chlamydia, and mycoplasma. For the members of the bacterial family, they reproduce by dividing themselves. As long as the conditions are suitable, they can usually divide once every 20 minutes, one into two, two into four, four into eight... and so on. Split exponentially. If calculated at this rate, a bacterium can produce 2.2e43 offspring in 24 hours, with a total weight of 2.2e28 grams, equivalent to the weight of 4 Earths! Although this kind of geometric reproduction is often affected by environmental, food and other conditions The limit is actually impossible to achieve. Even so, it is enough to put animals and plants out of reach. A prerequisite for species definition is reproductive isolation from other species. The cells at the bottom, bacteria, have a small living space and high density, which can easily lead to hybridization. The larger species will form reproductive isolation, such as land animals, humans, etc. 2. Human origin: The picture begins to show apes drinking water, a very simple state. Subtitles: "Millions of years ago, our earth was given life. And what can we do?" The human world has become more and more abundant, and it no longer only drinks water like the primitive apes. , things humans can do. Different people, different life and work. 3. Human relationship The heroine Lucy (hereinafter referred to as Lucy) has a conversation with a man she has known for a while. The man wants Lucy to help him deliver goods. Lucy thought of the days when she met and played with this man, and felt that she owed him a little. 4. Repay a favor? Good guy? The man said he went to the museum: "There was a woman, everyone knew her name was Lucy." Screen change: Apes in the museum. The man wanted to tell Lucy, be a good person and help others, and everyone will remember her, her name, and write it into history. But Lucy's answer was: "Do you think we are good people?" The man replied: "Yes" and then added: "NO" What Lucy meant was: I won't owe you anything just because you gave me benefits before. I will repay your kindness and help you with things. 5. Temptation and Trap The man continued to persuade Lucy and said: "Use your beautiful smile and send him his suitcase!" The scene switched to the mouse and the mousetrap (with food). The food was very tempting. But there are traps and there are costs. 6. Lucy still refused the coercive means of others, but the man forced Lucy to give her $500 and handcuffed her. Her fate was passive. 7. In the first part of the profit-chasing movie, the scene often switches to animals. The law of the jungle in the animal world is that the jungle is the law of the jungle. When it comes to humans, the competition is the same, but it doesn't look as barbaric as animals. Leopard chasing its prey sheep. The heroine is now like a hunted prey. Image: The leopard successfully hunts the sheep, the man is killed, and Lucy is captured. Matches the animal images. 8. The fear stage. Because she is weak, Lucy becomes prey and is very scared. Fear comes from humans. In addition to humans, other animals also have fear. The source of fear is the unknown, not knowing what will happen next that is not good for you, which leads to fear. 9. Intelligent species: The higher the brain usage rate, the smarter and more intelligent the species. Therefore, humans have reached the top of the earth's food chain. Human beings began to know how to use tools and make fire from primitive people, and began the development of civilization. The brain usage rate of ordinary animals is less than 5%, and the brain usage rate of humans is around 10% (the reason why it is around 10% and there is no higher improvement is because humans are overly dependent on tools.

) The only exception is the dolphin whose brain usage rate exceeds that of humans, with a brain usage rate of 20%. Although dolphins have a higher brain usage rate than humans, they have not developed civilization like humans. The main reason is that they do not have flexible limbs, flexible fingers, and feet like humans. Unable to create tools. "We can conclude that humans are obsessed with having the status quo" and therefore human development is relatively slow. 10. Save time. The development of human civilization is the invention and use of tools to help humans do things and save time. 11. Independence and development "If its habitat is in an unfavorable environment, the cell will choose to be self-reliant, that is, self-sufficient" (only care about itself) "But if its habitat is in a favorable environment, this is the choice for replication." : Reproduce the next generation. "And when they die, the important data of these cells will be inherited through the cells. Knowledge and expertise are bequeathed through time." (Part of the knowledge: namely, survival instinct, the basic survival instinct inherited, related to finding food, That is the ability to find food). For example: many animals are born with certain abilities. For example, spiders can build webs without learning; mosquitoes can suck blood without learning; butterflies can fly when they come out of cocoons; small fish can swim when they hatch; and baby turtles can swim from eggs. They can crawl when they are hatched, and they know how to crawl toward the sea; mammal cubs will suck milk after they are born; lambs will stand up soon after they are born, and they will run after a few days, and so on. As for human beings: there are some things that we are born with, such as sucking milk, which can be considered a skill. Woods can't do this, and they also need to be controlled by the brain, or many behavioral habits, such as liking to smell things, which is a habit. Many people have it, and no one teaches it. In addition to inheriting physical traits, genetic genes also inherit some knowledge and behavioral things, but the proportion is only very small. 12. Changing the theme of the movie: Using medicine to become a Buddha, what will happen after the brain is developed beyond 10%, or even 100%? There are more than 200 billion brain cells in the human brain, which can store 100 billion messages. Thoughts travel more than 300 miles per hour, have more than 100 megabytes of interlaced lines, and generate an average of 4,000 thoughts every 24 hours. The most sophisticated and sensitive organ in the world. The human brain structure is divided into cerebrum, cerebellum and brainstem. The brain is composed of the cerebral cortex (neocortex), limbic lobe (old cortex), brainstem, and brain beams. The cerebral cortex can be divided into three parts: frontal lobe, temporal lobe and occipital lobe. In addition, the brain is divided into two halves, left and right. The right hemisphere is the "right brain" and the left hemisphere is the "left brain". The left and right brain equally divide all structures of the brain. The left brain and the right brain have the same shape, but their functions are completely different. The left brain manages language, that is, it uses language to process information, and converts the information that enters the brain to see, hear, touch, smell, and taste (the five senses of the left brain) into language for communication, which is quite time-consuming; the left brain is The rational analysis and judgment brain mainly controls knowledge, judgment, thinking, reasoning, etc., and is closely related to the conscious mind. If the right brain of emotional intelligence, association, unknown, and feeling is allowed to memorize a large amount of information, the right brain will automatically process these information and derive creative information. In other words, the right brain is autonomous and can use its own imagination, thinking, and visualization of ideas. It also has excellent functions as a storyteller. If you are left-brained, no matter how hard you rack your brain, there is a limit. But as long as the memory of the right brain is combined with the thinking power, it can be connected with pre-linguistic pure thinking and image thinking that does not rely on language, and original ideas will be magically triggered. For specific information, please refer to Baidu Encyclopedia: Brain cells, left brain, right brain 13. Connections "Only 15% of the neurons of 100 million people are working. There are also human connections in the Milky Way galaxy. We need to have a huge data network, But we haven’t reached it.” (This passage pave the way for the protagonist Lucy to see invisible lines connecting to the sky after developing her brain.) This statement reminds me of the universe database. You can imagine the universe. It becomes a super quantum computer that connects all things, and all data generated by all things will be uploaded to this universe database. "What's the next step? Maybe controlling other people." (For this, we must have at least a 40% usage rate) The idea the movie wants to express is: the higher the development of the brain, the wider the scope of control. In addition to controlling oneself, one can also Can see information about other humans and species, and control other species and humans. 14. Shallow fear, saying goodbye to family ties. At this time, Lucy still had fear (but it was not as strong as before), which was the fear of death. She didn’t know what would happen next and whether she would die. Fear is an instinctive reaction of living things and is innate. Lucy calls her mother and talks about her emotions and how she feels now, as if she were saying her last words. 15. There was a conversation about brain usage rate and brain usage rate. Lucy said: "My current brain usage rate is 100%." ??This does not mean that the brain usage rate has reached 100%, but the current range of brain usage. 100% of the rate. Brain usage rate: It can be described as the percentage utilization of the CPU processor on the computer. Brain usage rate: the range of brain usage and the unused portion. It can be described by the core quality of the CPU, such as single-core CPU, dual-core CPU, 4-core CPU, and 8-core CPU. The more cores a CPU has, the wider its scope of use can be expanded. Taking 5% as the number of cores to reason, 5% of the brain usage is single core, 10% is dual core, 20% is 4 cores, 40% is 8 cores, 80% is 16 cores, and 100% is 20 cores.

16. The essence of life and the purpose of life "Origined from the first cell being divided into two, the purpose of life is to have lofty goals through learning." "If you ask me how to do it, I would say to have this knowledge . Just like all basic cells are traveling in time (including people)." 17. Exclusion of irregular society excludes irregular people who do not abide by laws and morals (as can be seen from the news section, no matter what the reason or motivation, as long as If you make a mistake, you will be scolded or even hunted) 18. Charles de Gaulle "Our bloodline begins with Charles de Gaulle in Paris." Regarding this passage, after much thought, I have a double understanding: ① Lucy is located at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (it is based on Named after Charles de Gaulle, the first president of France) ②The first two personal quotes of Charles de Gaulle: 1. Great men are great because they set out to become great men! 2. It’s not too far to reach the moon; the greatest distance we have to walk is still between us. These two famous quotes can be well explained: "Our lineage begins with Charles de Gaulle in Paris." ① Lucy is developing in the direction of greatness. ②The distance between Lucy and ordinary people has become farther and farther, beyond the capabilities of ordinary humans. The distance between people is not material, (as long as you have money, it is nothing that everyone can get, and this will be lost one day), but the use of knowledge leads to differences in ability. 19. Measurement units and social systems "All our established social systems are based on 1+1=2" "But 1+1, not 2. There is no quantity or symbol": that is, everything is an energy signal, and the signal can Edit and reorganize into different substances. "It codifies distance to reduce the human scale, and understanding the human scale helps us forget that the world is unfathomable." "If humans are not units of measurement, and the world is not governed by mathematical laws, how can all this be governed?" Lucy answered. : "Cars accelerate infinitely, and then the cars disappear. What if their existence is proved? The reason is time, its own existence, which is the ultimate measure. Its properties, the matter of its existence. Without time, we do not exist." "(Infinite acceleration, super-light speed, and finally travel through time and space?) "Time is unified." Time is the ruler of the world of human civilization. You can think of human civilization as a movie. This movie has time. You can speed up Forward and rewind to see everything. 20. Ignorance "Chaos is a kind of ignorance, not knowledge": equivalent to illiteracy, legal illiteracy and the like. Some humans abuse knowledge not because they have mastered it, but because they do not know how to use it rationally, and some are still illiterate or legally illiterate. 21. God's Eye During the process of Lucy absorbing all the CPH4, the image showed that CPH4 rushed into a triangular zone in the body. The area was closed, and CPH4 forced its way in. (My personal understanding is that it is a restricted area of ??the brain, a God zone) 22. The world of dark matter. In cosmology, dark matter refers to those things that do not emit electromagnetic radiation themselves. Human beings cannot directly observe them through any existing observation tools and can only be produced through gravity. The effect shows that there is a large amount of dark matter in the universe. The combined mass of all stars, planets and galaxies that can be observed in the universe is less than 4% of the mass of the entire universe. 96% of the universe is made up of mysterious substances that scientists cannot see, detect, or even imagine what they look like. Universe: Ordinary matter is 4%, dark matter is 23%, and dark energy is 73%. Dark matter and dark energy are considered to be the most challenging topics in universe research. They represent more than 90% of the matter content in the universe, while the matter we can see accounts for less than 10% of the total matter in the universe (about 5 %). Dark matter cannot be directly observed, but it can interfere with the light waves or gravity emitted by stars, and its presence can be clearly felt. In 1932, when dark matter was first proposed, it was just a product of theory, but we know that dark matter has become an important part of the universe. The total mass of dark matter is 6.3 times that of ordinary matter, accounting for 1/4 of the energy density of the universe. At the same time, more importantly, dark matter dominates the formation of the structure of the universe. The nature of dark matter remains a mystery. It seems that fear is the bottleneck of human beings.
