Parallel worlds – two. Birth of God
Шрифт:
– No. I'm really in love with you.
– Oh, come on. That can't happen. And even if it could, it's not human. A human would never say that.
– You wouldn't? And you've never professed your love?
Ruthra took a heavy breath.
– Well?
– What? Yes, I have, and more than once.
– What do you mean, more than once?
– That's right, some people are in love and some people aren't. I could fall madly in love and I was even ready to give my life for love.
– You see, you say that to me and then you don't believe me… You'd better kill me.
– Oh, my God, what am I hearing? You're definitely experiencing a system failure. I think the analysis and revision system should give us a signal.
– You misunderstand me, I'm not asking you to shut down the system. It's impossible, no one will allow it. I'm asking you to exercise your right of routine maintenance and disable the YatSan personality in me.
– This is a nightmare. I can't understand anything at all. I won't do it. Even if I am.
– Then what's wrong with it for me? Is it bad for me? I'm asking myself rather than you.
– Who's talking to me right now? Is it in reality, in the virtual world…? Or is it in some other world?
No one answered him.
– Who can hear me? Irene, can you hear me?
– I turned it off temporarily," Irene said. – It's better for you. It's easier to soberly analyze what's going on.
– Do you know what's best for me? Do you think I'm drunk on this talk?
– I've analyzed YatSan's identity in this world. Yes, unfortunately, Rutra Tigrovich, it is likely that you have not been in contact with the real YatSan.
– How's that? Where's the real one?
– I have no way of knowing that. You'll have to ask the local AI.
– What makes you think it's not the real YatSan?
– All the data on these characters is in the public domain. Irene told you, she's not real.
– Oh, for crying out loud. Is the operator speaking to me now?
– Yes, Mr. Master. You don't recognize me?
– My brain is confused, probably because of this situation… After all, YatSan in every world isn't real. Not the one I know on Earth. How do I know she's not real to that extent? Then where is the real one?
– Mr. Master, let me tell you this. You are tired and a little weary.
– Why do you draw that conclusion?
– You don't pay attention to details. Everything is very similar, which is why you have delusional disorientation syndrome.
– What the hell is this?
– The thing is that in this world the chronology is shifted. The reason is this: their universe lives in the eighth cycle of the last epoch of birth, simply put – the big bang, after which our universe was born. You have to admit, there was something before that. At some point, our universe is going to shrink and explode again. So, after each transformation, that is the work of billions of years, after burning everything and combining it into new species, – all particles change a little bit.
– Make it simple.
– The fact is that the Sun also emits charged particles, neutrinos and protons, which are part of the solar wind. This energy reaches the Earth, warming the planet, controlling our weather and providing energy for life. With each step in the combustion of the universe's composition of matter, more and more particles are freed of mass. In each new universe, with each new birth cycle, there is more and more light. This universe is living in the eighth cycle and we are in the seventh, everything is the same, only they have a different chronology of the life cycle of humanity. It's a little different.
– Can you be more specific? Actually, are you Irene? Or is Irene an artificial intelligence?
– Consider us together. I'm not an expert in nuclear physics.
– So what's the big deal about them being on their eighth cycle?
– Here I would not like to argue… why should I argue, you yourself have implemented a program, the whole essence of which is based on the inaccuracies of Einstein's theory. To put it simply, on the existence of mass in particles moving at the speed of light, although nothing can move at the speed of light if it has mass. Although it contradicts the theories of relativity, still neutrinos have a rest mass different from zero, the possible transformation of different varieties of neutrinos into electron, muon and tauon neutrinos. They have a smaller neutrino mass, so the Sun's radiation is cleaner, life formed later, well, and all the chronology behind it.
– You broke my brain. I called you in for a simple explanation, and you're confusing me.
– What do you think, Rutra Tigrovic, that she's easy for me? It's a machine.
– Okay, Irene, explain it like a layman.
– They have life formed later, a little later, and consequently all the other cycles. I can't do it any other way, any other way would be inaccurate.
– What do you say about YatSan being homo robotix?
– Mr. Magister, it may be hard for you to understand this, but their events are shifted. It's like a copy of the world, but the order of events is a little bit mixed up. They have the chronology in which the program on Earth is running, shifted.
– What the hell is this? – Ruthra said, and then he thought he understood what he was saying, but his brain resisted accepting it. – You mean they have a level of civilization almost identical to ours, but their generation cycles are different?
– Yes. They have a later life. Because of more favorable conditions, the level of civilization was a little bit ahead of us, but the generations were not.
– It didn't happen, it was born. That makes more sense. I mean, oh, my God!
– Yes, it is.
– Are we thinking the same thing?
– Yes, Master Ruthra.
– So here, there is not yet a generation of people who have already been born on Earth.
– Yeah. Unfortunately.
Ruthra interrupted her.
– Don't talk," he said in a particularly sad way.
– I'm a machine, I've been trying to tell you, she's not real. Yat-san isn't in this world yet. She'll be here in 54 years. You'd better do what Neri asked, get inside her and shut down YatSan.
– Uh, no.
