no, there is plenty of life in an infinite universe, but 2 or 3 great filters dictate that the density of technological based life is extremely low, I look forward to the day when AI can model that density, my guess is average

Is that what he said? I got the gist, that complex isn't synonymous with superior, but didn't take notice of the exact wording. However, if he said that complex isn't synonymous with progressive, he's actually wrong. Evolution is a process, and all processes have progression; diseases, decomposition, star formation, Cosmic expansion, life spans, etc.. It's not towards a set purpose, or from inferior to superior, but it's progression nonetheless. In evolution, all complexity is developed from simplicity. Simplicity could, theoretically, develop from complexity, but it never seems to. When new simplicity arises, it does so from old simplicity. Complexity starts with single cell life and ends up with blue whales, not the other way around. As evolution progresses, it produces complexity, and all complexity is a result of evolutionary progression. As the end result of evolutionary progression, complexity is progressive. It may be progressive in the "wrong" direction, and end up an evolutionary dead end, but it's still a manifestation of the progression of evolution. Sorry about the rant. It just annoys me when people apply the insight that evolution doesn't have a set purpose beyond its actual implications. It means that evolution has no superiority (other than survival), and no higher and lower forms of life. It does *not* mean that evolution doesn't progress, and it does *not* mean that complexity isn't a result of that progress. That is outside the logical and rational implications. It doesn't follow. It's overstating. It's wrong.

@@erikjarandson5458 Evolution isn't a process. Processes are designed to achieve a result, that's why they have a progression towards that result. Evolution is a phenomenon, but not one that is systematic towards a predetermined end goal. Evolution doesn't progress lifeforms, it just changes them. You need a plan in order to say that there's progress being made towards it, and there's no plan.

Great one !!... i always hear space fearing aliens. but what if the leap to built and mentaly do the 10000 year trip . Is not possible or intelligent todo ?

@@erikjarandson5458 - excellent points that, like untethered balloons, sail right over the heads of most, sadly!

'Modern' humans, homo sapiens, (possibly others) were intelligent many thousands of years ago, physics/chemistry etc was the same then as now. Why didn't they invent all the things we have now, then? What are the fundamental and/or combination of 'lucky breaks' that we had that they didn't? Would the same pertain to 'aliens'? It's obviously NOT just 'intelligence'. Nomadic, agrarian, technology has it's part; or just like dinosaurs ruled virtually unchanging for millions of years (because they had painted themselves into niches). Maybe the jump/combination also needs a periodic kick in the pants to make it all come together. If that's the case the kick needs to be well timed and just hard enough; too mild = no wake-up, too hard = too harsh a reset, too infrequent = 'dinosaur/stagnation', too often = too disruptive. So what/when are the sweet-spot/combination and how narrow the requirements?

Exactly.

Matt Fisher - I’d say have colonies on the moon, Mars & a moon of Jupiter & a couple of O’Neal Cylinders &/or asteroid mining in the Asteroid Belt, & then we can talk about being “space faring”.

Montgomery Burns - I think the problem is the inadequacy of our means of detection (think of trying to find a bacteria with a magnifying glass or a virus with a regular light microscope) & how little we’ve actually searched (we’ve sampled

Great point. I think that the vastness of time further complicates the vast distances of space.

Cool question. I heard the Milky Way is 100,000 light years across so would only be that far in the past at most. Our Earth has had life for billions of years. Maybe there will be a time when we can see all planets in Milky Way. We’ll see which planets have life and how far along technologically using our Earth as reference. And why are you making it always rain on the weekends?

Your question is right on point. Any civilization that is far enough away will be invisible to us for quite some time. Life may arise, develop and vanish on the other side of the galaxy before the light ever reaches us. We would be observing their past.

That is all true, yet the statistical likely hood we are still the first is highly unlikely, its much more likely we are the second, or among the first few. Like this guy said that would leave the possibility their are others and simply the evidence of their presence has not had time to reach us yet. I really like this solution to the Fermi Paradox. We will all stumble upon each other soon and similar tech levels, VERY StarTrek and StarWars..

How do you know how long the universe will be able to support life? We aren't even close to understanding the universe, something could happen at any moment that we aren't aware of that could change everything we think we know.

Pause... NO scientist knows how long the Universe will sustain life. I’ve read a loot of guesses and all of them say.. not long. (In terms of the lifespan of the universe itself). DEF not trillions lmao man.

@@shelbynihiser9345 You say, "not long" In terms of the lifespan of the universe itself. It's possible the universe could exist forever. But even if you consider the universe existing only so long as energy transfer is still possible (before the heat death of the universe) it will still exist for many many years. Perhaps as long as a googal (10^100) years. Not sure how you conclude it is DEF *NOT* trillions of years. I have seen several videos (and read in several books) that life could be supported by brown dwarfs for trillions of years kzfaq.info/get/bejne/auB7idtjnsWlYas.html And here is one talking about black holes supporting life for 10^94 years. Much *MUCH* longer than trillions of years. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oKp2YLFkppyUdHk.html

Idk, it seems too early still, the universe just a few millienia away. But who knows.

We can't even live long enough to travel to the nearest star outside our solar system, much less to one in another galaxy, so I feel no "responsibility" towards non-living matter at massive distances from me. Since it appears there is no other life "out there" that knowledge should make us value THIS terrestrial life more than ever. This place called Earth becomes more, astonishingly wondrous with each passing day, there's nothing, for all intents and purposes, more beautiful anywhere in all existence.

I figured we'd be the ones to build a dimensional portal and take on the Antarans in their pocket universe.

The thought that scares me is that a super AI could be so out of our imagination that every civilization that creates one is completely consumed by it and as a way to perpetuate its own existence it is SUPER stealthy and overall, smart at playing the game, always looking for a 100% winrate strategy...

@@memb. Just use a false vacuum, destroys EVERYTHING, eventually. The AI wouldn't be able to stop it, or anything for that matter...

Lol naw dude. We're just the makers of the real civ that's going to conquer the galaxy: AI

If there is one that acts like plants who cares?

True. Rare intelligence is my favourite solution. They are out there. But so rare that you have to leave the local group, maybe our galaxy cluster to find the next intelligent species. Of course gamma ray bursts contribute to the rarity of intelligence. Just like all the other filters. From the emergence of multicellular life to the evolution of intelligence itself.

@@Baalur i think it's possible that signs of intelligence, enough to be detectable by anyone outside of a few hundred light years range, is definitely very rare. there could be hundreds of human like civilisations in the galaxy, but their respective radio signals havent even reached us and likely never will.

Because we don't see Any we have to find solutions that cover all.. It's not about explaining alien behaviour, it's about explaining what we see

Oh don't worry. I really love what I do online. It's my roots and they'd have to drag me off kicking and screaming to get me to stop regardless of what happens :) And then I'd post a video of the dragging, kicking and screaming.

True, they could've left all sorts of trinkets for us to find, as a sort of gimmick to get us to spread our wings, in a sense. However whether or not we do is entirely up to us.

To be a Fermi Paradox solution, it would have to apply to every alien civilization, not just some or even most.

So all you have said is: a thing might do a thing to thing?s You might want to refer to this link for more statements such as yours: sebpearce.com/bullshit/

You mean like radiosynthesis? It's a theoretical process of plants (and I guess animals too), could use it to turn radiation into energy or even food!

Why is it that for the last 70 years everyone has been running around saying that the US government is lying about aliens, Roswell, Area 51 and covering everything up.

Define 'intelligent'. The thing is, you can get as many or few categories as you want, from zero and up.

@@redcat9436 purely instinctual. No intelligence whatsoever.

@@Baalur All forms of consciousness (even being unconscious with neural action) has to be what might be called intelligence. Can we deny the problem solving actions of bacteria changing their behavior based on certain chemical gradients.Any life system can only model abstract representations. The map can't be the territory. Consider the contradictions and tautologies even in this high level source: www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/intelligence.

Instinct is a highly refined form of intelligence. Any engineer can make it complicated - it takes a good engineer to make it simple.

THE galaxy? Maybe you missed all the picture in this video?

That's assuming we have even the slightest idea of what the energy requirements for an advanced civilization and their projects might be. Who knows, maybe they have Alcubierre drives to get around, but they need to harvest stars to continue to travel around their galaxy. Maybe they can move planets into new orbits, or power continent sized spaceships with solar sails, etc. You wouldn't build a giant fusion reactor to do these kinds of things; a star is already a fusion reactor, exponentially more powerful, and already there.

All of our technology still requires energy to work. Unless someone discovers a completely different means of accomplishing work (maybe possible, but in violation of our understanding of physics), they would eventually need vast amounts of energy. Fusion reactors make a lot of energy by our standards, but a star is a fusion reactor with many times the output of anything we've conceived of building.

We don't know how, exactly, but we do know how potentially. Thanks to the Yuri-Miller experiments and many advancements after we do understand how we can go from chemistry, to self replication, to proliferation, to diversification via replication mistakes, to basic life, and every step from there. We simply don't know which method, if any of the ones we've discovered, actually happened on earth. We also don't know when, exactly, but we know life has been on earth for a *LOOOONG* time. So put these 2 together and you end up with the conclusion that life should be ubiquitous. However, it is worth noting that earth had a long phase of only hosting single celled organisms for billions of years, this might be evidence of one the suppression mechanisms discussed in the video?

I don't think we're the only intelligent life, but our uprising to sentience is sketchy to say the least, especially with the whole "god made us" claims... makes you wonder if it was something else than a god.

Dyson spheres use fusion. The fusion inside a star. It is a vast and relatively long lasting source of unimagineable amounts of energy. It is just sensible to use it. Fusion-reactors might not be viable as a source of energy after all. But when it is possible (and it looks like it is) it would just mean that you can build your Dyson Swarm even faster.
