3 жыл бұрын"Grey goo" or self-replicating nanomachines is a classic sci-fi apocalypse scenario, but how likely is it, and how bad could it be?

Every time I hear Kyle say "Nano-machines", I hear Senator Armstrong flexing "Nano-machines Son!'

Fun fact: this has an official "NK-class" grey goo scenario in the SCP wiki.

I read a book called "Level 5" that (spoiler alert) ended in a gray goo scenario. I was impressed how it accounted for things like waste heat, wind speed, and travel time. To get around this the villain mailed time-delayed samples to major cities.

I thought that the "gray" part was because the nanomachine didn't have a good or bad intention, so it wasn't black or white, just gray

I mean. One would assume that if nanomachines like that existed, that they'd be programmed to only target certain materials etc. And not just replicate themselves out of anything. If we assume they malfunctioned so bad that they couldnt even recognize "friendlies" i'd also assume the malfuntion would not allow them to recognize other nanobots, meaning once certain size of the swarm was reached, theyd probably start cannibalizing themselves and make nanobots out of other nanobots, constantly growing and shrinking the size of the swarm without making meaningful progress on making actual new nanobots.

Greg Bear's "Blood Music" is one of the most haunting novels I've ever read. A profound ending. It's also a "grey goo" apocalypse story.

On topic though, this made me think of the game Horizon: Zero Dawn. [SPOILERS AHEAD] This was self-replicating machines that caused an apocalypse by destroying the biosphere. Those these were not nano, I imagine they used some similar processes. The game goes on to have a separate AI, with stored away materials, seed banks, and embryos eventually calculating the shut down code for the machines who destroyed everything and then using it's own machines to rebuild a stable biosphere and eventually repopulate it. One of my favorite games really.
