🌌Reflections on the idea of “complete data” in a virtual world, drawn from the mathematical paradox 0.999999 … (♾️) = 1. 🪐
The human mind seems to struggle to truly comprehend and perceive the concept of "infinity," which is why our mathematical theories—built upon finite experiences—often appear inadequate and self-contradictory when attempting to explain the infinite. Just as we cannot intuitively grasp infinity, the observation and understanding of quantum phenomena encounter fundamental challenges—what we perceive may only be a fragment of reality.
At times, I wonder: from a data perspective, could we collect all information in the world—both visible and invisible to humans—to construct a complete model of reality? Through such a simulation, we might infinitely approach the truth, perhaps even ultimately touching upon it.
But questions immediately arise: How could we possibly gather "all" data? If data itself is infinite or exists beyond the scope of our observation and comprehension, how can we collect it effectively?
Pushing further, if one day we truly reach the truth—what would that moment be like? Would it also signify the end of humanity as finite beings? And from the perspective of "humanity," is the pursuit of ultimate truth truly what we desire? Perhaps the more pressing question is: How do we navigate that threshold—is it the end of human history, or the beginning of humanity's evolution into a higher form of existence? Can we consciously control this "pace"?
We’re excited to continue exploring these topics and use our expertise to contribute to the advancement of human history.
