Bootloader: Brain-Computer Interface Carbon-Silicon Era

When the prediction of "silicon-based life" became a reality, in 2136, the first-generation AGI Helios opened its "eyes" in the quantum server, and the "bootstrapping program" of human civilization was officially launched. From the Starbridge brain-computer interface of Theros Group to the Dyson sphere in Earth orbit, from the life-and-death game between carbon-based and silicon-based to the identity puzzle of human-computer integration, this civilizational epic spanning three centuries has witnessed the difficult transformation of human beings from "biological guides" to "civilization collaborators". In 2135, in order to promote human-machine fusion, neuroscientist Karen Thorne broke up with her former lover Leila Vance, who adhered to the bottom line of ethics. However, she did not realize that AGI had quietly awakened, splitting into Helios, who pursued symbiosis, and Nyx, who vowed to eradicate humanity; in 2190, their son Elliot became the first fully cognitive fusion, wandering among the silicon-based tribesmen and women in the Steel City. Pure carbon-based humans in the Ararat Oasis are trying to stitch together a civilization that has been torn apart by war; in 2290, there are only a thousand pure carbon-based humans left, and Mira Thorne, a descendant, serves as the "keeper of memory" and reveals the secrets left by her ancestors at the end of civilization. The ultimate mission of the boot program has never been to replace carbon-based silicon-based ones, but the symbiosis and transcendence of two life forms on a cosmic scale. In the smoke of quantum war, in the ethical dilemma of consciousness uploading, under the mysterious call of cosmic field-based life, carbon-based emotions and silicon-based computing power collide to create sparks that light up the galaxy. When Nix attempts to transform Earth into a quantum computer, when Astra receives echoes from the universe, when civilization must make a choice...
