Chapter 891: Gene Rehearsal Combination
It’s not that Xu You didn’t feel any fatigue, but he had too many problems to study at the moment, and he couldn’t afford to rest.
Just the project about reviving extinct creatures that he had just discussed with Luo Wenkun and others was enough for Xu You to think about.
If it was just the construction of a small ecosystem, Xu You would not need to spend too much energy. After all, Xu Zhou had helped Xu You research a new type of material. As long as this material could be applied correctly, it would be enough to close the small ecosystem.
What bothers Xu You the most is how to use the various characteristics of Martian cells to resurrect extinct creatures.
Like the previous times, Xu You first tried to experiment with various genes through his brain simulation skills.
But soon, Xu You came out of the brain simulation state.
"No... The arrangement and combination of these gene fragments is too complicated. I can't complete this task just by relying on my brain. "
Although Xu You's brain is powerful enough and even better than a quantum computer in some aspects, in terms of computing speed alone, Xu You's brain is not even on the same level as a quantum computer.
After all, computing speed is one of the greatest strengths of quantum computers. The most powerful quantum computers today can complete trillions of complex calculations in just one second.
Even if the calculation method is very difficult, as long as the quantum computer can have a sufficient understanding of the content of the calculation, it can still complete the calculation at a speed far superior to humans.
Thinking of this, Xu You tried to connect with the quantum computer beside him.
Although this quantum computer is not the most powerful one in the world, it is already one of the world's top quantum computers in terms of its size.
Xu You used a wireless brain-computer connection to establish a connection channel with the quantum computer, and used a language that the quantum computer could understand to let it understand what he wanted to calculate.
Long before, when he was researching artificial intelligence, Xu You optimized the way humans communicate with computers, allowing himself to communicate with computers directly using brain waves without the need for any intermediate editing programs.
This will enable Xu You to connect with the quantum computer more efficiently, and this connection method will also enable the quantum computer to better understand Xu You's ideas, greatly improving the accuracy of subsequent simulations.
After some testing, Xu You confirmed that this quantum computer could complete the entire calculation process.
"Okay, let's start calculating now. With your calculation speed, you should be able to finish these calculations quickly."
After confirming that the simulation program had been completed, Xu You controlled the quantum computer and began the calculation work.
The task that this quantum computer needs to solve is to perform various permutations and combinations of the genetic fragments of Martian cells and extinct organisms, and simulate whether the recombined genes can cultivate a complete biological cell structure.
Because the number of these gene fragments is so large and involves a variety of different arrangements and combinations, the amount of calculation involved is an extremely large number.
However, this quantum computer is still performing calculations at a very fast speed.
With every passing second, the quantum computer gave Xu You the results of hundreds of millions of calculations, which left Xu You with no time to analyze each result.
Fortunately, before this, Xu You had already built a fractional calculation system that allowed the quantum computer to judge the probability that a piece of DNA could eventually develop into a complete cell based on the mass of each simulated DNA.
"No...at least these DNA fragments are all failed DNA fragments."
Xu You screened out some DNA fragments with higher scores, but even these calculation results with very high scores could not achieve the results Xu You hoped for.
These DNA fragments are either unable to develop into complete cell structures at all, or these cell structures are unable to develop into complete organisms.
There are even some cells that develop into very strange organisms, which are completely different from their appearance before extinction.
However, Xu You still did not feel any sense of loss, because this was just the tip of the iceberg of all possibilities. As long as the quantum computer is given enough time, there is hope that more high-quality results can be calculated.
As time passed, Xu You continued to evaluate some of the high-scoring results.
"Um?"
At this moment, Xu You suddenly saw an extremely high score appear.
According to the system's evaluation, the calculated score is as high as 99.99, which means that there is more than a ninety-nine point ninety-nine percent chance that this DNA fragment can develop into a complete organism and completely replicate its appearance before extinction.
Seeing such a result, Xu You couldn't help but feel excited, because this meant that the direction of this gene recombination was very likely to be the final correct result.
Xu You tried hard to suppress the excitement in his heart and thought about how to carry out the next research work.
In fact, as long as he found the answer, Xu You would be able to verify the result, because Xu You's brain simulation ability was strong enough. It was just that when there were too many simulated directions, it was difficult for Xu You to accurately find the correct direction.
"Let's start with an animal that became extinct in modern times," Xu You thought.
Because there is complete information record of animals that have become extinct in modern times, Xu You can more easily judge whether the results of his simulation are accurate.
There are no visual records of those creatures that became extinct in ancient times, and human descriptions of them are all based on inferences and imaginations based on traces such as fossils.
Including humans' inference of the image of dinosaurs, which may not be very similar to the real image of dinosaurs, and may even be very different.
“Let’s start with the Texas Red Wolf.”
This is a creature that became extinct more than 50 years ago and there is complete video record of it, so Xu You chose to start the simulation from it.
Xu You found the DNA structure of this organism and combined it with the partial DNA gene fragment structure of Martian cells using the calculation results of a quantum computer.
Next, Xu You placed the recombined DNA fragments in the primordial soup and observed their subsequent changes.
The DNA structure after direct recombination was actually slowly absorbing the energy from the primordial soup and building its own cell structure.
