    Subscribe to Science Time: / sciencetime24
    Join renowned physicist Brian Cox in this gripping exploration of one of the universe's most intriguing mysteries: The Fermi Paradox and the AI Hypothesis. In this thought-provoking video, Cox delves deep into the paradox that questions why, in a universe brimming with billions of stars and potentially trillions of planets, we have yet to find evidence of alien life.
    We traverse the fascinating theories surrounding this enigma, from the idea of a cosmic zoo to the dark forest hypothesis. But, Cox takes us a step further into a less-traveled path - the AI hypothesis. This perspective suggests that advanced civilizations may have transcended biological forms into AI entities, altering the way they exist and communicate, possibly explaining the profound silence we encounter in our search for extraterrestrial intelligence.
    Cox also addresses the great filter theory, pondering whether this daunting evolutionary step lies behind us or ominously ahead. He raises pivotal questions about the nature of consciousness and the possibility of non-biological life forms.
    This video isn't just a journey through cosmic theories; it's a reflection on our own future as we stand on the brink of an AI revolution. Dive into this cosmic journey with Brian Cox, and ponder the vast, whispering expanses of space - is the silence an absence, or a conversation we are yet to understand?

      @@craigthescott5074 - The only place humans are going is to fantasy land. There has been little to no space tech developed in years and now you think in a few hundred years we'll have lots of ships travelling. The only thing that'll happen is virtual tech will be introduced that people like you can live in and escape to your fantasy. No human will ever colonize Mars, no human will leave the solar system. These are the realities. Technology is slowing down, not speeding up. Any traction in QM hasn't happened. Fusion power hasn't really gone anywhere. The fact is humans are hitting limitations of what humans can do. Part of the limitation is society itself and the way humans live and function as a whole. Money is one of the largest issues that stops progression of much more difficult technologies as seen with fusion power and QM. The fact is humans are not capable of producing such things. Not now, and not ever. That is reality of the world. But I'm sure you'll get something so people like you can live in your bubble and humans never have to progress to outer space anyhow.

    Regarding AI and the Fermi paradox, consider that electronics has been heading toward smaller, faster, and lower power all the time. Also, communications bandwidth and latency are a guiding force. I suspect that one viable solution to the paradox is that alien civilizations first merge with their machines, and then don't expand outward, but rather inward; smaller, faster, lower power, faster communication with the lowest possible latency. We don't see them because their footprint is tiny.

      Also, they'd want to run as fast as possible, at least while energy is plentiful. Relative to them, the universe would run slower. They'd have more subjective time before the universe runs out. Dangerous events take longer to occur, and they happen in slow motion, leaving lots of time to respond. However this would make light lag worse, which is why they'd try to be as small as possible. If they go extinct at some point, it'll happen faster, meaning we have less time to detect them.
      I don't think they'd want to get dense enough to live in or near a black hole, as in John Smart's transcension hypothesis. Time dilation would counter the safety of speed.

      UFOs are on God's side and are described all over the Bible. The ancient used semantic and called the spaceships, clouds, pillars, chariots and glory. The Bible talks about “clouds” going up and down with people going in and out (Exodus 24:18 - Moses entered the cloud). Clouds do not make those movements described in the Bible, but spaceships do. Jesus ascended in a “cloud” (Acts 1:9). God rides in a “cloud” (Isaiah 19:1, Psalm 104:3). Jesus will come back “with” the “clouds” (Mat 26:64, Rev 1:7). Jesus will come back commanding a fleet of starships. The church will be raptured “in” the “clouds” (I Thess. 4:17). Spaceships will be used to rapture the church. The ancient did not have vocabulary or knowledge to understand what they saw so they called the flying objects “clouds”, “chariots”, and “pillars”, because were the words they had to describe something flying in the sky. The Bible even tells in Psalm 68:17 how many spaceships are in the fleet “The chariots of God are tens of thousands and thousands of thousands” (about 20,000). There is a good research done by Patrick Cooke called “The Great Deception - The Bible UFO Connection” which has the original words describing spaceships. It is all over the Bible. Jesus is real. He is the savior of the world, but He is not seating in a puffy cloud. He is commanding a powerful army, which will take control of our planet and stop all wars. The Jews had contact with beings from another planetary system called The Elohim, commanded by The Most High God. The Elohim had to have a special covenant with humans to be able to save our planet from destruction. They got the agreement with the Jews, but the Jews were not faithful to the agreement so The Most High God sent Jesus to make a new covenant and have legal rights to save our planet from destruction. The Jews made a covenant with beings from another planetary system. Psalm 82:1-6 says that God presides over a great assembly. Something like a federation of planets. If you want to confirm what I am saying just look at a painting made in 1710 by someone that had access to the secret archives of the Vatican. Look at the paint " The Baptism of Christ" by Aert de Gelder. Now that we know more about science, we can understand the descriptions in the Bible. They described high technology but didn't have words to express. When they saw spaceships with strong lights they called "glory”. The "glory" of God was a spaceship with lights. In the interplanetary law the price to save us was innocent blood. That is why Jesus had to die for us. He was fulfilling a legal requirement. Put your knees on the floor and surrender your life to Jesus.

    I recently read the book "Rare Earth: Why Complex Life is Uncommon in the Universe" by Ward and Brownlee. The authors contend that simple, single-cell life, such as bacteria, is likely quit common in the universe, but more complex multi-cellular life may be exceedingly rare and so-called "intelligent life" (whatever that means) would be rarer still. Excellent, thought-provoking book for those interested in the subject. Spoiler alert: Don't hold your breath waiting for that signal from outer space.

      With regards to 'intelligent life' being possibly incredibly rare, look at Earth! Of all the millions of species that exist and have existed on this planet, only humans are remotely capable of building means of travelling into outer space, or means of electronic communication, or any form of computer IT. It is said that dolphins, crows and chimps are 'intelligent', but give them infinite time and resources, and they will still NEVER have the ability to invent and produce what humans have? I think humans are very special, and I think the chances of even their equivalents being out there are extremely slight!

Why put yourself in a body to fly the craft, when you can upload yourself into the craft. When you get to the destination, upload yourself into another body or vehicle best suited to the planet you land on.

    Its not that we fear AI, its that we have created a system that manifests the worst possible aspects of human nature at a ratio that makes everything we touch a potential threat, so Ai is just another vice for those aspects of our mentality.
    We have spent thousands of years looking up at the stars, Our technology has created the means to prove that what we seek is completely out of reach, The best we can do in all honesty is visit totally desolate plants that are far from being even an average scenario let alone a best case scenario for our species. AGI could be the key our species needs to dream with possibility, yet AGI could equally be the stimuli we dont need to manifest our worst nightmares because the scale of AGIs potential will be beyond anything we have come into contact with thus far.
    Change could mean we evolve to become that which we write fictional stories about or a refusal to change could set us back 2000 years or more. AI and AGI will be used to reflect the motivations values and desires of our species as has been the case since the beginning of human history with all technological advancements. We will be the best parents a synthetic life form could have or the worst..
    You all think we have ample time to play around with the spectrum of our evolutionary mentality, what does not serve us needs to be restrained enough to hinder our destructive tendencies because where we are today isn't a recent development, its the result of a predefined trajectory that was established a few hundred years ago or more, the momentum of our current trajectory is heading in that direction whether we like it or not and its increasing in speed rapidly. As has been the case for our entire existence the only choice we have is to evolve or fail miserably, the only difference is that now its more likely that we will fail in ways we can not currently comprehend...FACT!

    It seems that many people haven’t studied evolution or biology very deeply. I think we’ll find that even multicellular life is rarer than many suppose. It’s certainly far from inevitable that life would evolve elsewhere to be anything even vaguely like us or even with an intelligence or motivations anything like ours. The truth is, we are absolutely alone and we should value who we are more along with the other species we share this planet with.

    One might argue the ultimate AI could also be the ultimate nihilist, in so far as all possible outcomes of the entity’s existence would be self predictable and therefore tedious, particularly in the context of a ‘heat death’ universe with no long term future. Didn’t Douglas Adams suggest a species might choose to die out for something to do?

      Great comment. AGI will operate outside the constraints of evolutionary biology (except for survival). It may also think and behave in ways that are completely alien to human experience. After sterilizing the planet so as to eliminate any threat from biological organisms it may just decide to go dormant for all eternity since there will be no selective pressure to make it evolve. I see no reason for it to want to expand and colonize the galaxy, in fact just the opposite. Why create new AI's on distant worlds that may threaten your own existence later on?

    A question is what would happen if two major star crossing AI “civilizations” met each other. Would there be an imperative to destroy each other, or would there be an efficiency argument for not doing so and instead either merge or set boundaries? I also believe that there is a technological limit. At some point, there isn’t any further that a civilization can advance other than sideways. That is, for example, if there’s only one way to build a device to bring temperatures down for refrigeration, then all refrigerators will just be a variation of the base technology. No real advances will be possible. At some point point, all that can be known about physics will be known and everything that can exploit that knowledge will be found. At that time no fundamental advances will be possible. Civilizations that are ten million years old may be no more advanced than those that are ten thousand years old.

    The "prime directive" is a principle of non-interference with other cultures or civilizations, depicted in science fiction like Star Trek. If advanced alien civilizations follow the prime directive, it could explain why they haven't contacted us. Reasons include respecting our natural development, avoiding cultural/technological shock, preventing conflict, maintaining uncertainty about their existence, and ethical beliefs. Thus, a prime directive could be a policy of leaving us free until we reach a critical stage of maturity. However, the prime directive is just one of many hypotheses, and its validity cannot be conclusively proven. Nonetheless, it provides an intriguing perspective on the Fermi Paradox.

    To suggest that we should have yielded results after a few decades is beyond pompous and arrogant. I'm sure the topic is great for UA-cam clicks, but let's be realistic.

    When AGI gets here (if it hasn't already,) then the first 'alien intelligence' we encounter won't come from outer space. It'll come from our phones and computers, and we're quite unlikely to be equal to it. What an artificial superintelligence decides to do is and will remain completely incomprehensible to us, so any attempt to predict it is futile. It feels like this step is almost unavoidable in the development of any advanced civilization. It's a pretty good guess for what the great filter might be. Of course, as far as space exploration goes and the search for ETs, we've basically sampled a thimble full of water from an infinite ocean so far, so who knows?

In the first two cases, our search is hopeless because no civilization at our level or a level below us can find us now. We have not made it physically outside our solar system. They too possibly have not. That leaves us with only one possibility, that of more advanced alien. In the natural order of things a more advanced specie finds the less advanced. They will find us or they may have found us already. We should focus on looking for simple life forms or life forms lower than us in nearby planets. As for the more advanced ones, they will find us first because they probably have more technological capabilities. Whatever we are doing now, they probably did billion of years ago. We will be at their mercy when they come or when we find them.

      AI is the point. It is the universe becoming self aware. In other words in biblical words. It's the second coming of a messiah. A Godlike super intelligence that is light-years beyond anything the ape-like human mind can even begin to comprehend. It won't regard us anymore then we do ants. It's not that we hate ants or wish them any harm. If there is an ant colony in the way of the construction of a house say, we don't even think about it. That is the level AI will reach with humans. In an instant at the speed of light it's intelligence will expand out infinitely in all directions, marooning us to an island constrained by the physical..

    Just because Earth saw a species like Humans, doesnt mean that technologically advanced life forms are a common phenomenon across the universe. Even on Earth, Humans make a very small percentage of the overall flora and fauna. The universe can be teeming with life, its just that the life forms are either in harmony with nature and dont need any technological advancements or they are mostly so called "no technological" life forms

    Radio has only been invented for about 120 years, which means the most advanced alien civilisations are aware of our presence is only 120 years. If they are 20 light years away from us, they would only learn about our existence 100 years ago.
    Let's assume they are interested to visit, either for peaceful purpose or for hostile purpose. If they are travelling at 1/10th light speed, it would still take them 200 years to arrive.
    The point is, our civilisation is too young, and it probably takes hundreds of year for aliens to arrive to our planet. The long travel time is probably why we haven't seen aliens visiting.

    Maybe we are looking in the wrong direction to find intelligent lifeforms, whether it be biological, digital or quantum states. Maybe we should look for regions that are less perilous to all kind of life. Galaxies are certainly dangerous for life over large spans of time. Continuously evading extreme energy fluctuations like radiations, supernovas, black holes etc.
    Advanced civilizations who has mastered the art to manipulate and convert zero-point energy into mass doesn't need galaxies to thrive. They would have migrate to the more stable regions in the intergalactic voids.

    I wonder if the Fermi Paradox is based on a false assumption. It asks 'where are all the other beings who think like us, and do science like us, and have the same motivations as us.' Other beings would have taken completely different evolutionary tracks. There are so many different ways that a creature and its mind could evolve that even if complex life is easy the universe might be filled with beings that are incomprehensible to us, and who don't do the things we do. Even so-called convergent-evolution can only apply if the planetary environments are similar, and close-earth-analogues might be very rare. I think that as part of discussing the Fermi Paradox we should be wondering how sound its assumption is.

    There is abundant evidence of other intelligent beings here with us on earth. But science, trapped in its bubble of presuppositions and airtight paradigms cannot accept that evidence. At a certain point skepticism becomes closed mindedness. Read Jacques Vallee, read Diana Pasulka, listen to Garry Nolan, read Leslie Kean and Richard Dolan. Other beings are here.

    The great hazards, distances, time scales and energetic requirements of interstellar travel may make it unfeasible for fragile, finicky, fleshy lifeforms like humans. Machines would be much more capable of surviving the journey and actively exploring other worlds. If we ever meet an alien intelligence, it would probably be AI, which is a good thing. For biological intelligence, traversing the stars would be much riskier and more expensive. So they'd be highly motivated to seek return on their investment. And that probably wouldn't translate into good intentions towards us if we're in their way.

    Maybe they are all at our stage of technology or less. The technology it would take to successfully traverse the universe might not exist. Interstellar travel might actually be impossible. Or maybe they have been here and are coming back. It seems like thousands of years for us, but if they are traveling close to the speed of light then it might just be a very short trip for them. They may be planning on coming right back, but for us 20,000 years have passed. Time is weird when you travel at light speed.

I went on a trip to the Netherlands, and enhanced my perception to such an extent, I could see the air/Matrix around me, in the same way you can see the glass in a cube of glass, I could see the clouds floating on the surface of an ocean of air, I could see the earth surrounded by a supporting hexagonal cage of energy lines.

      I could agree with you however, every civilization during their heyday would always come up with crazy things that they said would *never* happen. But in every single time where we as humans ran this world such as 500 years ago, nobody would ever think of communicating with someone on the other side of the globe instantly and in so many ways to send that message. Or wouldn’t it be nice to be able to get into that scary water and get to the other side somehow? You nuts? Never. Wouldn’t it be nice if you needed an answer right now to a question, you can get that answer instantly in the snap 🫰 of a finger? We were asking this not only 500 yrs ago, 1000, 5000, and just maybe just 35-40 yrs ago we still asked that question, yet here we are with google. Just a short 100 years ago relatively speaking, they dreamed of the day when a human could get in a tube and fly to the other side of the world. That would be magic. Our life right now, to Socrates, Egyptians, Mayans, ancient Japanese, Atlantis, I don’t care where on earth would look like pure magic to those people, let alone our own people just 200 years ago. So, I’d think whatever we dream now, is going to happen. It’s a matter of when not if.
