And we 53 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: are not diving into this exploration on our lonesome. No, 54 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: quite the opposite.

We 64 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 6: will try to keep him quiet. 65 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: That's that's true. That's true. Conspiracy Bot.

Maybe if they do something 72 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: that's remotely work appropriate, we'll take a picture and host it. 73 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 6: But right now, yeah, we can't show it right now. 74 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,839 Speaker 5: We're just it was a bear getting the TSA, so 75 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 5: he needs to enjoy himself. This last time we're traveling 76 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 5: with them. 77 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: Smells like circuits burning, and it's so guys, Like most people, 78 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: we spend a great deal of our time here in 79 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: the present twenty nineteen. 80 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 5: As we record this, everyone I know spends their time 81 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 5: in twenty nineteen. 82 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, we spend a lot of this time thinking 83 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: about what might or might not happen in the future. 84 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 1: And most of the time when we're using these great 85 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 1: predictive computers that we refer to as our brains, we're 86 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: using this this imaginative capacity to think of what we 87 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 1: could call small events, not in a diminutive way, just 88 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: like things that don't really rock the friggin' timeline. 89 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,239 Speaker 3: You know what where if it's on your calendar? 90 00:04:59,320 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 2: Right? 91 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: Stuff on account? Where am I going to go for lunch? 92 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: What are my list of errands? You know? How can 93 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: I get out of that conference? Call those kind of things? 94 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 6: When will our son supernova? I've got that on my calendar. 95 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly exactly because we oh yeah, we have 96 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: money on that, right, Yes, so we also have a 97 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: tendency and we could even call it a compulsion to 98 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 1: wonder about those large events. Let's define it, very loosely, 99 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: arbitrarily as any event that involves a group of people 100 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: large enough such that members of the same group may 101 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: not know each other and may never meet. So this 102 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: is interesting because for both Hysarian fifty one and stuff 103 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: they want, you know, really for any podcast that's that's 104 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: a large scale event because a lot of us listening 105 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: now are probably not going to meet each. 106 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 4: Other, right WHOA I never thought about it like that. 107 00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 1: The universe is a cold, lonely place. So you know, 108 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: we've got examples of these, like what's a what's a 109 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: large event? 110 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 4: Oh, sure, like a huge election. 111 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 3: Let's say a primary election or a presidential election. The 112 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 3: people who are actually voting probably aren't going to meet 113 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 3: each other. You're definitely not going to meet everybody who's 114 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 3: voting in that election. 115 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 6: Nine to eleven. Yes, there you go from impact from 116 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 6: not being there even to the people who were there. 117 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 6: I mean, there were so many people impacted that weren't 118 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 6: just in those buildings and surrounding communities and such and 119 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 6: family members. Not all of them all met. 120 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: And that's an excellent example because that's a single event 121 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: rather than something like a war that goes on for years. 122 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 3: Well, and it's a So that's a large event, and 123 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 3: it's all it's also a long term event, right. 124 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, we're still reeling and the effects are felt. 125 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. 126 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 5: Yeah. 127 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: And that's because in addition to defining something as a 128 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: small or large event, we can also imagine them the 129 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 1: way you said, Matt, short or long term. So this 130 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: so nine to eleven clearly a long term event, but 131 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: a short term, large scale event would be a celebration 132 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: in your city, like the Bulls win in Chicago, because 133 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: you guys, you guys live in the Windy City. And 134 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: when the Bulls win in Chicago, what do people go nuts? 135 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 4: Excuse me? 136 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 6: We call it the lower fourth. Well we haven't seen 137 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 6: that for so long, I'm not sure how. But when 138 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 6: the Hawks won the Cup, yes, when the. 139 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 5: Comes one, seven million people I think showed up one 140 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 5: of the largest human gatherings in history here. 141 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 2: Wow. 142 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. So a long term, small scale event then would 143 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: be something we're like, all right, I got this kid, now, 144 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: I got to send them to college. At some point, 145 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: I better start putting away the scratch, right, And this 146 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: can take longer, but it's not really It might not 147 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: alter a timeline. Today's episode is about a long term, 148 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,119 Speaker 1: large scale event. One of the biggest questions we ever 149 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: deal with. What's gonna happen to us? 150 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 5: You know, the collective us? Yeah, collective us? What are we? 151 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 5: Where are we going? 152 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: Not what's going to happen today or tomorrow, but a 153 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: thousand years from now? And off air this is this 154 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: is an idea that we were talking about that we 155 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: had originally. I don't know if we mentioned this on 156 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: Hysteria fifty one. We had originally when we were talking 157 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: with each other, we're like, all right, yeah, yeah, one 158 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: of us will do an episode on humanity in a 159 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: thousand years, and then the other and then we'll do 160 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: a companion episode about humanity in ten thousand years. And 161 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: we started looking into the research and we were, you know, Paul, 162 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to bleep me on this, but we 163 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: were like, holy, ten thousand years. 164 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you could just say whatever you want. 165 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 5: Maybe you know. 166 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 6: We're all jellyfish, yeah I know. 167 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: And even with so we just did an excellent episode. 168 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: Well I really enjoyed it. I thought you guys did. 169 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 4: I was good. 170 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, and you too. 171 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: Conspiracy and we did an episode on the future of 172 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: humanity in one hundred years, and what you guys should 173 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: us was that there's quite a lot of stuff down 174 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: the pike that not only is possible, but is in 175 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,239 Speaker 1: a very real sense inevitable. 176 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 5: Right, And that's the big I think that's the big 177 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 5: defining difference of you know, when we look at these things, 178 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 5: is what are we controlling and what is just going 179 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 5: to happen? That's you know, this inevitability that is just 180 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,559 Speaker 5: we're careening towards these events. 181 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 6: A lot of times, I think, especially with technology, it 182 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 6: really is the pebble that starts the avalanche. But once 183 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 6: it started, you're not stopping it. Yeah, Like the progression 184 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 6: of our processing power isn't going to even though we're 185 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 6: not following More's law, still it is not going to stop. 186 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a train with no breaks, right. Yeah. This 187 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: is this is the part of the show where we 188 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: want to want to let you know that if you 189 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: haven't checked out Hysteria fifty one, please do it. In 190 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: this episode, we're going to be exploring some things that 191 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 1: dovetail with the previous episode. So if you want to 192 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: get the the full cinema for your ears experience, stop now. 193 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: We'll wait check out our earlier episode. 194 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 6: And for you comic book fans, we're referring to this 195 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 6: as a crossover. 196 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: Events, a shared universe. 197 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 6: Yes, I'm Batman. 198 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 1: Oh all right, I respect that.

Yeah, there you go. 201 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 6: Just stay away from image and we'll be fine. 202 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, their creator owned. 203 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 5: Uh, it's true. So all right, let's get to it. 204 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 3: Sure, So let's talk about where we humans. Everybody in 205 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 3: this room, everyone listening is going to end up in 206 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 3: one thousand years, ten generations ostensibly from now. 207 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: Well to understand that, Matt, don't we have to go 208 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: back to Would it be helpful for us to go 209 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: back to one thousand years before now? 210 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 4: I guess? 211 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: Okay, cool, Thanks for saying that, because otherwise. 212 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 3: All right, that's that's really the only thing we can 213 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 3: do to have an understanding. Right, Well, let's see how 214 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 3: far we've come in a thousand years and then extrapolate 215 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 3: from there. 216 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 1: And Brett earlier in our previous episode. You you mentioned 217 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 1: the phantom time hypothesis, so you're when we're playing a 218 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: little bit with history, please write in by the way 219 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: to hysterianation and us and let us know what your 220 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: take is. What actually happened in ten nineteen, right? 221 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 5: What year isn't really? Year is really? 222 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you can use the juw Ja calendar if 223 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: you want as well. But okay, so here's the here's 224 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 1: the good news. For a lot of people. In broad 225 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: evolutionary terms, just basic biology, one thousand years is not 226 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 1: a drop in the bucket. It's not it's not an 227 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: it's not an iota of spit. It's not a snap. 228 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 6: So you're saying it's not enough time to develop gills 229 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 6: Kevin Costner style. 230 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 1: The only flaw in one water War, the only one. 231 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 5: It's been worked out behind his ears. 232 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: And for some reason people hated that. They were like, 233 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: that's so convenient, it was so great. 234 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 4: You jerk totally forgot about that. 235 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 6: I got an idea, guys, mad Max on a water world. 236 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 1: Now only if we get the guy from Field of Dream. 237 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 1: That's really the glue. But yeah, this means what does 238 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: this mean? Like, like, what happens if we meet someone 239 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: putting aside all the interesting problems with time travel, we 240 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: just don't think about it too. 241 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 5: Too intents and purposes. If you met someone besides you know, 242 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,839 Speaker 5: maybe some some language barriers and in the way they're dressed, 243 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 5: you wouldn't really know the difference because in the last 244 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 5: thousand years we haven't changed that much. 245 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 6: I mean, you kill them, like, don't use don't give 246 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 6: them a blanket. 247 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 5: It'll probably twenty five years old and look seventy. You know, 248 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 5: it'd be a. 249 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: North Centinal Island situation. Possibly, but but yeah, you're you're 250 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:21,199 Speaker 1: absolutely right, you've nailed it in one. We would still 251 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: eat the same food, we still need the same range 252 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 1: of environmental conditions, and if there's a little bit of 253 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: romance in the air, you can reproduce. 254 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 6: There's actually a documentary that explores this. I think the 255 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 6: other member was a little a little older than just 256 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 6: a thousand years old, but explores how they might operate 257 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 6: in modern society. It's called Encino Man. 258 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 4: Oh god, I. 259 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 1: Felt, I've got to learn that every time you reference 260 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: a documentary, it's not so it's interesting. There have been 261 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: some discernible changes. People like doctor Alan Kwan, who works 262 00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: with computational genomics. He he has some very specific ones. 263 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: One of them is kind of weird, right, did you 264 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 1: you saw this? 265 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, the concept of our foreheads changing. 266 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 5: They call it the Manning syndrome. Yeah, Peyton Manning. 267 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 4: You guys are just brutal. 268 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: Remember that old insult when people call someone the forehead? 269 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 1: More like five heads? Pretty soon if this trend is correct, 270 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: a thousand years from now, and people will be making 271 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: fun of three heads if you're if your foreheads too small? 272 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 6: Too small? 273 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 3: Right? 274 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 4: Right? 275 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: So we also seem to have a trend of growing 276 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: taller as a species, but a lot of that is dicey. 277 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: Can we can we call that straight up evolution? 278 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 6: Or is that just our ability to feed ourselves better 279 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 6: and breed with Scandinavians? 280 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: And yeah, there a tall bunch. There are a tall bunch. 281 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: Like how now we have this, we have this conspiracy 282 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 1: that they are Scandinavians, scandidate. 283 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 3: But the biggest difference between that human and you really 284 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 3: would be things that are a little different. There's societal things, right, 285 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 3: medical care, like advances in technology that have allowed for communication, 286 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 3: Like you said, language barriers are going to be different. 287 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 3: Even just over all the beliefs and values of that 288 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 3: person are going to be vastly different. Sure, but I 289 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 3: mean that's really it. 290 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: It doesn't Yeah, it doesn't mean that they have lower 291 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 1: or higher cognitive ability, right, It just means that their 292 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: priorities will also widely different. 293 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 5: You're very much you know, you're product of your environment 294 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 5: you're surrounding, and so that's going to play heavily into that. 295 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 6: You might show them a car and they think it's magic, 296 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 6: but that's you're You're so right about it not being 297 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 6: their cognitive ability. It's why we we we did an 298 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 6: episode not that long ago on go Beckley Tepi and 299 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 6: and and the or the Pyramids or whatever, and there's 300 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 6: all of these anthropologists to say, well, how did they 301 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 6: do this? How could they possibly figure this out? Well, 302 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 6: because they had the same sized brains that we do, 303 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 6: that's how they did. I mean, a lot of elbow grease, 304 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 6: maybe a few decades to figure it out, and you 305 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 6: can build stuff. 306 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly. And that's why you know, there's a 307 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: valid criticism of a lot of ancient alien theories where 308 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: it's like, okay, so what's more likely? Is it more 309 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: likely that someone came all the way to Earth and 310 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: built a vague geometric shape and then left and didn't 311 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: you know, they don't want you to know why. Or 312 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 1: is it likely that people were always relatively on the 313 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: same cognitive scale. Yes, yes, so this would appear to 314 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: be good news at first blush because this means that 315 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: for the past thousand years, the biggest changes to our 316 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: species have been cultural and technological. Right, even the clear 317 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 1: and excellent example of the diseases that we carry and 318 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 1: are immune to, that is a technological improvement. We didn't 319 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: just biologically figure that out. And our population is skyrocketed. 320 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: If we were a product at your local grocery store, what, 321 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 1: what's the popular grocery store. 322 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:27,159 Speaker 5: In Chicago, Marianos and Jewel Yeah, okay, Kroger Baby is 323 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 5: owned by Kroger. 324 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 1: Fingers on the hand, I see, well, if we were 325 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: a product in Mariano's, we'd still have the same ingredients, 326 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: the same great taste, the same oddly fragile packaging. It's 327 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 1: just easier to find us in more places. And we 328 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: have a great example. We've pulled this up before. 329 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 3: Oh, the world population at this moment right now, Yes, 330 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 3: we're recording this. Yes, seven billion, six hundred and eighty 331 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 3: eight million, five hundred and thirty four thousand, four hundred 332 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 3: and twenty nine. 333 00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's spinning really fat. 334 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 4: It's going really fast. 335 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 5: I mean yeah, when you look at that clock, it's 336 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,959 Speaker 5: a staggering thing to see. That's how fast people are 337 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 5: coming into this world. 338 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: And we always it's always tempting when we bring that 339 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: up in an episode. It's always tempting to check it 340 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 1: again at the end and see how. 341 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,959 Speaker 5: Many people are sixty billion? What the hell? 342 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 6: So, Yeah, the premise that most of us go with 343 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 6: when we're you know, doing engaging in futurism is that 344 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 6: where will we put all these people? 345 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, there is some. 346 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 6: There's some new studies out that are looking at larger societies, 347 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 6: maybe not the globe as a whole, and saying, actually, 348 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 6: we are not currently running at replacement rate. So although 349 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 6: it's kind of like the fact that we are, population 350 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 6: is still growing is a function of things that happened 351 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 6: fifty years ago, because those people are still alive and 352 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 6: they overpopulated then, and that if if you look a 353 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 6: few generations in the future, you can actually start to 354 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 6: see evening out of because this number keeps growing, evening 355 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 6: out or even decline. So there's not a consensus in 356 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 6: the scientific community that overpopulation is going to continue to 357 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 6: exponentially explode the way we kind of all been fed by. 358 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 1: Like enthusie and reasoning and stuff. 359 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, exactly. 360 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 3: You don't want to go Osamandias on it and just 361 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 3: wipe out most everybody. 362 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 6: Yeah right, snappy fingers. 363 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: You know, I'll tell you the thing that made that 364 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: guy Thanos a real villain and the biggest plot hole 365 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 1: in that film spoiler is he could have just made 366 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: the universe twice as big, or just. 367 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 5: Doubled all snap it and you make it twice as big, 368 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 5: you double all of the whatever you need, all the resources. 369 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: I think he was just being super emo, to be 370 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 1: completely honest, But his cosmic billy corgan this aside. We 371 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: can say right now, in twenty nineteen. 372 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 6: You also opened a T shop also shop. 373 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,359 Speaker 1: We as a species are making some huge waves of 374 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: multiple fronts, and Matt and I were trying to figure 375 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: out the best way to frame this, and what we 376 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: came up with was the good, the bad, and the ugly. 377 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 4: Right, So there you go. 378 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:23,679 Speaker 5: I can't do it. 379 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 1: That's great, Anio Morricone, Right, good things, we get good things. 380 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: When it comes to technology, we're the best in the 381 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 1: biz because we're the only ones we really know, you know, 382 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: like some higher order mammals can make tools, corvids can 383 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: use sticks or whatever. But as far as we know, 384 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: no non human entity has built a computer yet. 385 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 6: Right, Yes, But I mean I'm giving it a fifty 386 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 6: to fifty on dolphins, but we haven't found them yet. 387 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 1: Right, right, And it's probably built to do something that 388 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 1: only dolphins. 389 00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, we wouldn't understand that. 390 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 6: When you get it, it's for dolphin kisses. 391 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: Right, so some of us listen. Now, we remember a 392 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: world before smartphones. We talked about this in our episode 393 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: about humanity a century from now. We remember times before 394 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 1: the internet, a world of landlines and paper maps. Somebody 395 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: would tell tell you where to go at a certain time, 396 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: and you would have to remember it yourself. And we 397 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: are also learning more about our own bodies. Genetic research 398 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 1: is definitely going to help us eradicate some genetic diseases, 399 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 1: as well as eventually allowing us to tweak some specific 400 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 1: traits for practical purposes and cosmetic ones. You know what 401 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: I mean. You want you want kids with purple eyes? 402 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 6: Yeah, one of the you mentioned on the technology side. 403 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 6: You know, we talk about AI and we've we've all 404 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 6: done episodes on AI. It's probably not worth diving deep into, 405 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 6: but it is worth talking about that. We need to 406 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 6: be careful as it relates to, you know, creating nanobots 407 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 6: and things of that nature. I recently read are you 408 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 6: guys familiar with Nick Bostrom, Swedish philosopher. He's got some 409 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 6: really cool and interesting stuff on future And I read 410 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 6: this thing about the h They call it the paper 411 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 6: clip Maximizer, and it's basically a thought experiment, that's all 412 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 6: it is. But it's the idea that the most mundane 413 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 6: thing that you could tell an artificial intelligence to do 414 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 6: could turn out really poorly. So here's a quote from him. 415 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 6: Suppose we have an AI whose only goal is to 416 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 6: make as many paper clips as possible. The AI will 417 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 6: quickly realize that it would be much better if there 418 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 6: were no humans, because humans might decide to switch it off, 419 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 6: and their ultimate goal is to make as many paper 420 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 6: clips as possible. 421 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 5: Okay because cheer. 422 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, And this is generalized AI, so it can think 423 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: big pictures correct. 424 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 6: Also, human bodies contain a lot of atoms that could 425 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 6: be made into paper clips, reformat and turned into paper clips. 426 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 6: The future that that AI would be trying to gear 427 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 6: towards would be one in which they were a lot 428 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 6: of paper clips, but not a lot of humans. And 429 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 6: if you like from a if you hadn't programmed that 430 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 6: robot to value human life or to understand empathy, we're 431 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 6: talking like that could be a problem. 432 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, that leads us straight into the bad. Yes, that's 433 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: an excellent example. Many of the self same technological innovations 434 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: that are looming on our species horizons will probably create 435 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,160 Speaker 1: new problems as readily as they solve existing ones. Like John, 436 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: your example with the paper clip maximizer, aside from being 437 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 1: frankly terrifying, is spot on because we don't know what 438 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: this stuff will be like once we actually created. To 439 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: our common knowledge, there is no functioning generalized machine consciousness 440 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: generalized AI. 441 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 2: Right. 442 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: There's stuff like no offense conspiracy bought, but there's there's 443 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 1: stuff that can do specific tax as. 444 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 6: We haven't reached the singularity, right. 445 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 5: Right, And that's why it's such a broad term, because 446 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 5: we don't It's that we don't know, and that's why 447 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 5: it's so scary for people, and it's so inspiring for people. 448 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,679 Speaker 5: And everyone's seen terminator, you know, and so that's always 449 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,719 Speaker 5: looming in the back of your mind because that that is, 450 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 5: I guess a possibility. 451 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's a good metaphor. But it looks like 452 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: we have we may well have a terminator situation. It 453 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: just won't look human, it'll be gray goo. 454 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,199 Speaker 4: Yes, So this is the thing I wanted to bring up. 455 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 3: The paper clip problem gets exponentially scarier if it's not 456 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 3: making paper clips, if it's replicating, if it's just making 457 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 3: more of itself, right, oh yeah, and if it's on 458 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 3: a nanoscale technology that's just self replicated replicating. 459 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,200 Speaker 4: That means that the. 460 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 3: Gray goo that is inside of our heads that can 461 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 3: come up with making a nano bot and then getting 462 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 3: that nanobot to have artificial technology to continue to replicate, 463 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 3: then creates this thing that occurs out in the physical 464 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 3: world that is a gray gu that is just an 465 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 3: entire planet covered in nanobots that have self replicated to 466 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 3: the point where that's all that's left. 467 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 6: It's all is there. 468 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly. And if we survive all of this, 469 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 1: then the other bad news concerns our bodies and the 470 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 1: environment in which they live. Genetic research loves it. I 471 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 1: think we shouted out Gataga earlier. It's a fantastic film. 472 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: Watch it again if you've already seen it. Like most 473 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: advanced technologies, especially in their earlier days, this is going 474 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: to be controlled by wealthy institutions at first because of 475 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 1: the way that society functions right now, and so before 476 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 1: it bleeds into the genes of a general population, before 477 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: like the descendant of Jeff Bezos scandalizes his or her 478 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: family and sleeps with a peasant, this stuff would result 479 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 1: in in something and it's most extreme that we would 480 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 1: call man made speciation. But then there's the chance we 481 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: talked about this for the tin Cream with traits and 482 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 1: one part of the geni code could have unintended disastrous consequences. 483 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: For fiction. A good example of this would be the 484 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: Eloy and the Morlocks from the Time Machine. 485 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 5: Right, you know, did we have the best of intentions 486 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 5: and all of a sudden, now we're moment underneath the 487 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 5: ground because we can't be on the sunlight just because 488 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 5: Crisper ran. 489 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 6: That's right, there's a ticking time bomb inside of every cell. 490 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 6: Very A lot of geneticists are like, well, the key 491 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 6: to immortality could be turning off that time bomb. One 492 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 6: of the challenges or scary parts of that is there's 493 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 6: one type of cell today that does not have that 494 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 6: time bomb in it. It's a cancer cell. 495 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 4: Ah. 496 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 6: Yes, and so you changed the makeup of a cell 497 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 6: a little too much, you become a big tumor all. 498 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: Of a sudden, right, right, and technically speaking, very technically speaking, 499 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 1: there is one immortal individual Henrietta lacks at least her cancer, right. 500 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 3: You guys love us no, no, no, Well, listen to 501 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 3: our episode on do we do an episode or. 502 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: Just a we did an episode on immortality? Got it 503 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 1: in the various terribly problematic ways. 504 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:12,360 Speaker 4: It's achieve it. 505 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 3: It's this crazy messed up thing where this one woman's 506 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 3: cancer cells were taken as uh samples to be tested 507 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 3: right for testing, and then all of the like all 508 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,199 Speaker 3: of the other samples that were that existed in this 509 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 3: one building ended up having Henrietta LAX's cancer cells in 510 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 3: those samples. And then they started realizing, wait a second, 511 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 3: somehow these samples, because they were being shipped across the 512 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 3: planet to be studied, uh, they ended up in all 513 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 3: the cancer cells, or at least the vast majority of them. 514 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 1: And they they continue to reproduce. 515 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,920 Speaker 5: Yes, yes, wow. 516 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: So technically immortal, but not the kind of immortality you probably. 517 00:27:55,760 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 3: Yeah remember for But it goes back to our whole 518 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 3: humanity as a virus thing spreading across the cosmos from 519 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 3: our last episode. 520 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,920 Speaker 5: Isn't that what you want to do? It's you want 521 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 5: to reproduce and you want to live. You know that 522 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 5: you're bringing it down to its basis terms. But I 523 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,439 Speaker 5: mean that's the idea. And guess what I was. I 524 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,919 Speaker 5: needed to leave this body. I need to leave this planet, 525 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:21,640 Speaker 5: you know. And they say we're going to have to 526 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 5: be an interplanetary species. Well guess what virus is spread. 527 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 1: We get angry when it's cancer, but we're one hundred 528 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,199 Speaker 1: percent on board if it's us, right, right, right. So 529 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 1: the last thing is the climate. Yes, the climate. You've 530 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: heard it before. It is the tragedy of commons writ large. 531 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: Unless we all at the same time make some massive changes, 532 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: the climate seems set to inevitably change in some drastic 533 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: ways ocean acidification, temperature changes, deforestation, and so on. 534 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 6: I have one question. Yes, you guys are familiar with 535 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 6: the Kardashiev scale. Yes, we are currently a point seven 536 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 6: on the Kardashiv scale. 537 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 5: Seven two three. Come on now, no coteam. 538 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 6: They say that a level one civilization can control all 539 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 6: of the energy on their planet, and as a function 540 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 6: that they can control all of the weather. Everything pretty 541 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 6: much is happening in their neck of the woods. If 542 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 6: we achieve level one in the next thousand years, don't 543 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 6: we also achieve the ability to go, oh well, we 544 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 6: can just do whatever we need to do the atmosphere 545 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 6: and make sure that doesn't happen. 546 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: Yes, the problem is getting to that thousand year mark. 547 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 6: From here to level one. 548 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, that is, don't let. 549 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 5: Anything that we've already done to ourselves erase before we 550 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 5: can get that. 551 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 4: Quit's fair. 552 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 3: If if life has existed on other planets and emerged 553 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 3: from a goo from a you know, a chemical reaction 554 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 3: that occurred because there just happened to be the right 555 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 3: molecules on that planet, don't you think they do they 556 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 3: go through a very similar process of figuring out. 557 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 5: Scis Yeah, that like life is probably very similar. Of 558 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 5: that's the grand equalizers. If they're smart enough to save themselves, 559 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 5: because they all probably come up to this part. Stay 560 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 5: we're at now, we're very close to the tipping point 561 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 5: we were talking about, you know, a singularity. We're almost 562 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 5: to that point now where we need to decide that 563 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 5: we want to better ourselves or are do we want 564 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 5: to wipe ourselves out? 565 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 6: I think that's assuming that they're like normal ish whatever 566 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 6: we consider that, like carbon based life forms. Yeah sure, 567 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 6: you know, there's also people that speculate that on gas giants, 568 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 6: sentient life could develop in a way that we don't 569 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 6: even understand. 570 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I guess what I just what I mean 571 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 3: is the fuel, the available fuel that exists on whatever 572 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 3: planetary body the life emerges from, ends up being used 573 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 3: up to an extent or altered to an extent, no 574 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 3: matter what it is. 575 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 5: That for us in a thousand years from now, if 576 00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 5: we're going to be able to do the things that 577 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 5: we needed to save our planet from extinction of whatever 578 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 5: might happen. To be able to explore the cosmos, we're 579 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 5: gonna need energy and things like that that come from 580 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 5: far more exotic places, black holes, other dimensions. These are 581 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 5: the things that they say that we're going to be 582 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 5: playing with if we are you know, to be a 583 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 5: you know, a level two or something like that. So 584 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 5: climate in and of itself is nothing. 585 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, and yet it's everything. 586 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 5: Climate exactly. 587 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 1: Climate is the the VHS that we have to use 588 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: your earlier tample mat the VHS. We have to keep 589 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: them working order until we can afford LG. So the 590 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 1: last thing we mentioned the good. We talked about the bad, 591 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: the big bads. Now we have to talk about the ugly. 592 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 1: Just briefly, there's one ugly thing you should keep in 593 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: your mind, folks, as as we listen along. The number 594 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: one ugly thing, the frightening, horrifying anti ganesh like elephant 595 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 1: in our species collective room is put simply this, there 596 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: is a very high chance that we will not make 597 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 1: it to the one thousand year mark. We were safe. 598 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: In our earlier episode we said, you know, we're assuming 599 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 1: that nothing terrible happens to the one hundred year mark. 600 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 1: Now we're doing that ten times. 601 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, and. 602 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 1: In Stephen hawkins estimation, we absolutely are not gonna make 603 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: it unless. 604 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 5: We get off of Earth. Right. 605 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: Stephen Hawkins not necessarily are curmudgeon, but calls him like 606 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: you sees him. He has some statements that are pretty 607 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: much along the lines of screw humans. 608 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 5: Unless they get off Earth. Screw Earth. We need to 609 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 5: leave it. 610 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: You know, no disrespect, but it's working out. Aliens are 611 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: real and screw them to So we're gonna get ai 612 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: and you know what, screw that. That's I mean, I'm 613 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 1: paraphrasing a little. 614 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, we learned about a lot of that stuff. 615 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 3: Did you have you, guys ever spoken with Josh Clark, 616 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 3: who did End of the World from stuff? 617 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 4: You should know? 618 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 6: No, we we really want to. We're gonna have him 619 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 6: on to talk the Fermi Paradox. 620 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 4: Yea, oh that's great. 621 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: Oh, that's gonna be great. 622 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 4: Yeah. 623 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: So he has a podcast that explores. 624 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 5: All the chuckles that are that are facing us. 625 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's a cavalcade of comedy. Yeah, but we 626 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: recommend that. And with all this in mind, we have 627 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: to understand that everything we are about to contemplate about 628 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: human civilization one thousand years from now is inherently optimistic, 629 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: if only because we are assuming that somewhere, somehow, something 630 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 1: like humanity is still is still partying on in threeenty nineteen. 631 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: What are we talking about. We'll tell you after a 632 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 1: word from our sponsor. 633 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 5: Here's where it gets crazy. 634 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: Humanity one thousand years from now. Welcome to thirty nineteen. 635 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 1: If you're listening to this, then hypothetically you have survived 636 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: and out of all the weird trials and travails that 637 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: you have encountered in thirty nineteen, you have decided to 638 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 1: take a break and listen to a podcast, and you've 639 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: chose this one. Yeah, thank you. 640 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:21,319 Speaker 3: Good job doing some ancient recovery of either technology or 641 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 3: I don't know. 642 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,439 Speaker 5: This is part of an archaeological dig. 643 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:27,760 Speaker 6: This show is actually included in the tests ract. 644 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 5: I'm sure it's going to go into the Smithsonian at 645 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,879 Speaker 5: one point in time or another, so you know it's true. Yeah, 646 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 5: good lord. 647 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: It would be like the regional version, you know, like 648 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: how their Ted X talks right Smithsonian X. So let's 649 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: let's see we left off one thousand years ago. We 650 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,720 Speaker 1: left off with the fact that there are inevitable things 651 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 1: that will happen in the climate as we knew it 652 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 1: from twenty nineteen, right, So a thousand years later, a 653 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 1: lot of water under the bridge, you know. 654 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 4: A lot of water over there, over the over the bag. 655 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,800 Speaker 1: So he did there, Matt, can you tell us a 656 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:09,760 Speaker 1: little bit about what's happened with the climate? 657 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 3: Well, odds are humanity continued despite our best intentions, we 658 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,879 Speaker 3: continue to use carbon fuels, carbon based fuels and other 659 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 3: things that put CO two emissions out into the atmosphere. Right, 660 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:29,360 Speaker 3: because as of twenty nineteen, CO two emissions are at 661 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 3: an average of three hundred and eighty five parts per million. 662 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,840 Speaker 3: Sounds really low, right per million? 663 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, it sounds really low. But here's the deal. 664 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 3: That's increasing and if that gets up just a little 665 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 3: bit higher to say four hundred and fifty, maybe all 666 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 3: the way up to six hundred parts per million, and 667 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 3: that could be really bad because if it reaches that 668 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 3: level of as an average, and then if in some 669 00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 3: way all CO two emissions just stop debt, no more 670 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 3: carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere. 671 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:05,760 Speaker 4: This is what would happen. 672 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 3: There would be persistent decreases in dry season rainfall that 673 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 3: are that are and would be comparable to the nineteen 674 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 3: thirties depression era, like the dust bowl that we've all 675 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,360 Speaker 3: heard of, that would just exist that there would be 676 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:20,439 Speaker 3: in zones of. 677 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 6: All your life, now, yeah, it would be. 678 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,280 Speaker 3: There would be zones of this stuff, this terrible situation 679 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 3: all across the planet, every everywhere from southern Europe to 680 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 3: northern Africa, southwestern North America, which already you know, is 681 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,240 Speaker 3: not doing great in twenty nineteen. If you think about 682 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 3: some of the wildfire situations and other just heat situations, 683 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 3: Southern Africa would be affected, Western Australia. Human water supplies, 684 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,240 Speaker 3: specifically fresh water supplies aquifers. 685 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 5: Which is already suspect right now. 686 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:59,320 Speaker 3: Yes, that stuff would decrease much further. Again, fires would 687 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 3: just be everywhere. 688 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,320 Speaker 1: If you're one of those people who hates being cold, 689 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 1: thirty nineteen is like your year. 690 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, actually several years after twenty nineteen, and then up 691 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 3: until thirty nineteen. 692 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:14,240 Speaker 4: It's your face. 693 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it's your era. 694 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 3: And all kinds of agriculture is going to be hugely 695 00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,800 Speaker 3: affected by this, just because of the differences in rainfall 696 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:24,439 Speaker 3: at this point, because of these things. 697 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 6: Now, you said if it if all the emission stops, 698 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 6: you mean you're saying that we take we make progress, 699 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 6: and they all stop, but these will still be the outcomes. 700 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:39,760 Speaker 3: Yes, Because it takes that long for a large climate 701 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 3: change to effect to be affected, essentially a thousand years, right, 702 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,320 Speaker 3: That's one of the main issues. It takes forever to 703 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 3: the effects will be seen rather quickly, and then it 704 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 3: takes a long time to fix. 705 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:57,280 Speaker 6: Those put the toothpaste back into the tube. 706 00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 3: Yes, that is to say, though, or this is without 707 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 3: saying that there could be technological advancements up to this 708 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:07,840 Speaker 3: point where we could cause that CO two to be 709 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 3: out of the atmosphere for one reason or another. 710 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: That's our wild card. We're leaning heavy on this one. 711 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,279 Speaker 6: I don't know about you, guys, but I have I've 712 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 6: learned most recently that climate change isn't actually a real thing. 713 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,279 Speaker 6: And no, it's not a real thing. You saw how 714 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:28,240 Speaker 6: cold it got in the in the Midwest this winter. 715 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:30,240 Speaker 6: Obviously things aren't. 716 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 5: Getting climate change other. 717 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 6: And as we all know, plants like CO two, so 718 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 6: this isn't a problem. I don't know why we're talking 719 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 6: about this. I can't, but in all seriousness, if I 720 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 6: do think, if we make it to a thousand years 721 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 6: from now, isn't that kind of part and parcel with 722 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 6: we will have the technology to fix this like the 723 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,839 Speaker 6: the in between time, like you mentioned before, Ben, is 724 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:59,360 Speaker 6: the challenge. Yes, but if we make it there unless 725 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,799 Speaker 6: I guess there's one addendum to that, if we get 726 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 6: reduced to the place where we are, you know, a 727 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 6: bunch of tribes running around again because we've lost technology 728 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 6: because of cataclysmic events. I suppose in that case it wouldn't. 729 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 6: But assuming we're still a relatively normal society, whether it's 730 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,800 Speaker 6: a global society or still split up by then wouldn't 731 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 6: we have the tech to affect changer hopefully? 732 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:28,320 Speaker 1: The question is whether, given our tribalistic nature, we would 733 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 1: be capable of cooperating on a large enough scale to 734 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 1: implement it in a meaningful way. So maybe some country 735 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 1: or some institute, or increasingly what would be likely is 736 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 1: some large private institution, a company the Koch brothers, sure, 737 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 1: the Koch brothers, Nessley, Unilever, Haliburton, all the hits, all 738 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 1: the good ones. They have a let's say that they 739 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:59,280 Speaker 1: have a way to game the weather in a specific region, 740 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 1: or they have some thing like innovative breakthrough the weather 741 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,840 Speaker 1: dominating Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, and throw the wildcard 742 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 1: in and you're fine, right right. The question is what 743 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 1: sort of negotiation or arrangement would they expect people to 744 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 1: enter into in order to gain access to that technology. 745 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 1: That's study about CO two, by the way, is from 746 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:29,760 Speaker 1: the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and according to their study, 747 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 1: they're not a super controversial group by the way. 748 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:38,799 Speaker 6: No, actually, Noah, I mean getting biblical on me. 749 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're sort of the bad boys of oceanography. They 750 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: they do say in this same study that changes in 751 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 1: surface temperature, this is a quotation, rainfall and sea level 752 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: are largely irreversible for more than one thousand years after 753 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 1: CO two emissions are completely stopped. And they if you 754 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 1: look at the study, they've they've gained it such that 755 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:07,239 Speaker 1: they go from the average emission now to maybe they say, 756 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 1: it increases just a little bit and then it all stops. 757 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: It increases toward that more reasonable number the match just 758 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 1: named max out at six hundred per million, and then 759 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:20,719 Speaker 1: that just stops. The The scary thing is it's not 760 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:24,359 Speaker 1: going to completely stop. Like that's just not how things 761 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 1: of that scale. 762 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:25,840 Speaker 6: We'll be breathing. 763 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,360 Speaker 1: That's true, Like we emit. 764 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 6: CO two every time we take a breath. 765 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 1: Classic usum, Sorry, I've been really off off away from 766 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 1: the podcast, off topic here. You guys ever get caught 767 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 1: in the overuse of a turn of phrase or a 768 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: figure of speech, Yeah. 769 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 5: You can't stop using it. 770 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 1: They're like, ah, I've got to stop referring to things 771 00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 1: as classic whatever. 772 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,080 Speaker 5: The other person just says it's. 773 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 6: Kind of like when I refer to things as a 774 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,240 Speaker 6: documentary when they're not really documentaries. 775 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 1: Well, you did that so well because I felt that 776 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 1: after you had clearly showed us that that was on 777 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 1: the way. 778 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 5: Yeah. 779 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 1: The other one is I went through oh, I will 780 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 1: die on this hill, which is a melodramatic way to 781 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 1: apply to anything. 782 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:25,880 Speaker 6: That aside barring you actually being on a hill and 783 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:27,360 Speaker 6: willing to die over it. 784 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 1: Right that actually that does not happen yet. So if 785 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: you're listening in thirty nineteen, writ in and let us 786 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: know what your favorite turn of future phrases, assuming you're alive. 787 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,120 Speaker 6: It's like it's like Fill and Ted. You guys literally 788 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 6: saved the universe. 789 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 1: Well, you're in this too now. 790 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,879 Speaker 3: And all of this is just to say that in 791 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:56,439 Speaker 3: a thousand years, if we don't fix this right, it'll 792 00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 3: look this way. So and the other thing that we'll 793 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 3: see is sea levels because of this, and it's directly 794 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 3: related to those co two. Yeah, and that's also a 795 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 3: pretty It doesn't sound as bad initially when you say 796 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 3: it that if it happens the same way, oceans will 797 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:16,320 Speaker 3: rise at an average of I think one point two 798 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:18,239 Speaker 3: feet or something or what is it? 799 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 5: A one point three to three point two feet. 800 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 3: That's exactly what it is, so like a maximum of 801 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:24,319 Speaker 3: a meter, right, But. 802 00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:27,320 Speaker 5: When you think about that though, yes, bye by Florida, Yeah, 803 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 5: by all these coastal areas. 804 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:34,400 Speaker 1: Solomon Islands, Yeah, a lot of Micronesia. Then the leaders 805 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:36,919 Speaker 1: of those countries, a lot of island nations are very 806 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: well aware of this, because even back in twenty nineteen, 807 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 1: they could see this stuff happening and they pled their 808 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 1: case to I think we used to call the United Nations, 809 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:48,960 Speaker 1: which may still be around, I don't know. 810 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:52,960 Speaker 6: Well speaking of in twenty nineteen, it was in twenty eighteen, 811 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 6: I believe that a piece of the Arctic shelf fell 812 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 6: off that was the size of Delaware. 813 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 5: Jeez, what a wonderfully descriptive size Delaware. 814 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 1: That's our new Let's just compare things to the measure. 815 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 1: I've attatched a picture of Delaware for comparison. 816 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 5: It was three point six delawares. That's great, let's do that. 817 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:23,400 Speaker 1: So, yes, the ocean will rise, and it will rise 818 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: by two meters if CO two peaks at one thousand 819 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 1: parts per million and two meters makes a hell of 820 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 1: a difference. That's that's where you know, the smart money 821 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:39,360 Speaker 1: has already bought something inland, right right, and they're waiting 822 00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 1: for the beach to show up. 823 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 6: That beachfront property you own in Arkansas, that's right, right, right. 824 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:45,720 Speaker 5: Right right. 825 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: This this brings us to we're talking about the natural world. 826 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:54,120 Speaker 1: This brings us to another thing. Even in twenty nineteen, 827 00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 1: we as a species, we're undergoing what's called a great extinction. 828 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:03,720 Speaker 1: Great great extinctions are nothing new. It's not the first, 829 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:07,240 Speaker 1: this will not be the last, but they are brutal 830 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 1: to experience. In the moments, you know, a thousand years Hence, 831 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:19,279 Speaker 1: we will have already have lost quite a few wild animals, 832 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:22,799 Speaker 1: quite a few plants, a ton of insects, many of 833 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:27,839 Speaker 1: which were never discovered before they went extinct. But because 834 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,799 Speaker 1: we're a thousand years in the future now, we may 835 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:34,680 Speaker 1: also be able to pull a wooly mammoth and bring 836 00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:35,400 Speaker 1: them back. 837 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,359 Speaker 5: We just don't know where we will put them. 838 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 6: Well, Ben, you spent so much time trying to figure 839 00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 6: out if you could, you never stopped to think if you. 840 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 5: Should know. 841 00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,840 Speaker 6: A mastardization of it. But yes, yeah, yeah, yeah. 842 00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:56,479 Speaker 5: We look at all these things that they're just talking about. 843 00:45:56,520 --> 00:46:00,800 Speaker 5: The bees, are now on the endangered species and they say, 844 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 5: you know, where are we without bees and politenization? I 845 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:07,239 Speaker 5: mean hurting very much so, so you better hope that 846 00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,759 Speaker 5: we have that kind of technology or wherewithal now to 847 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,960 Speaker 5: change things. Like you said, a hard stop, you know, 848 00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 5: but you know there needs to be a lot of 849 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,719 Speaker 5: hard stops in almost every one of these camps for 850 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 5: our next thousand years to be something that we want 851 00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:23,200 Speaker 5: to be a part. 852 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:26,920 Speaker 6: Of, another threat to throw into the ring other than 853 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 6: being in an extinction moment, other than where the climate 854 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 6: could go from a warming perspective, we are overdue for 855 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:41,400 Speaker 6: the next ice age. Oh yeah, and in a thousand 856 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 6: years makes it much more likely. Now it's a weird 857 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 6: catch twenty two because they most scientists think that the 858 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 6: reason hasn't happened again yet is because the global warming 859 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:59,360 Speaker 6: saving ourselves by killing ourselves. Yeah, it's like cutting the rope. 860 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 6: But you're like hanging over a vat of acid, Like 861 00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 6: I'm either going to hang here or I'm going to 862 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 6: fall into the bat of acid. These are not good outcomes. 863 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 6: But and I am I am not a climatologist. I 864 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 6: don't know if I told you that. Guys before we 865 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 6: started the show. 866 00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 1: I'm not you're pretty, You're not like some kind of 867 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 1: weather surgeon or whatever they call it. 868 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:26,880 Speaker 6: A climatician. But I have to imagine that the balance 869 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 6: there of global warming versus the Earth really wants its 870 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 6: next ice age all play in somehow to a cosmic 871 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 6: soup of not goodness. 872 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, that's that's the thing. That's what makes this 873 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 1: a tricky topic. If we're talking about the planet in 874 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:51,239 Speaker 1: one thousand years, it's going to be around. It's it's right, 875 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:55,360 Speaker 1: it's going to be, by and large still home to 876 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 1: some sort of life. The question is whether or not 877 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:01,040 Speaker 1: people are still going to be in the mix. And 878 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 1: for assuming that they are, they're going to be radically 879 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 1: different from what we know. That thing we talked about 880 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,240 Speaker 1: where we could speak, well, we could interact with someone 881 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:12,560 Speaker 1: from ten nineteen and they. 882 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 5: Would look sort of like us. 883 00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 1: That's probably not the case in thirty. 884 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 5: Nineteen, because of environmental or designer reasons, either or apps. 885 00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 1: I would say, I would argue largely designer reasons because 886 00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:29,799 Speaker 1: now we are capable in thirty nineteen of impacting, affecting, 887 00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 1: and steering our own evolution and adaptations. Because despite the 888 00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:39,360 Speaker 1: Great extinction despite the ups and downs with the climate 889 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:44,640 Speaker 1: or the ecology in which we live. If we're around 890 00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 1: and civilization hasn't collapsed, we are going to be doing 891 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:52,520 Speaker 1: amazing science fiction level stuff. Will we be close to 892 00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 1: being a Type two civilization? I don't know. 893 00:48:57,680 --> 00:48:59,960 Speaker 5: Type two has a hell of a gap. 894 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,759 Speaker 1: You know, there's there's is Type two, the one where 895 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:06,560 Speaker 1: you are able to your star, your top, your star, right, 896 00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:07,799 Speaker 1: harness the. 897 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:10,600 Speaker 6: Entire basically, will we have a dice in sphere? 898 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:11,319 Speaker 4: Yes? 899 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:15,200 Speaker 5: Or progress to where we don't need one because we've 900 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 5: come up with some other. 901 00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe we get to type one and we say, okay, 902 00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:25,279 Speaker 1: let's just let's stay here, let's franchise out Mars and 903 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 1: maybe you know the shopping districts. Yeah, if the Martians 904 00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:33,080 Speaker 1: want to do it, they can. But we will have 905 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 1: this amazing technology. We will have super fast computers, perhaps 906 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:45,640 Speaker 1: perhaps so so very quick that they are no longer 907 00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 1: computers to us. They are part of us, you know, 908 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 1: Like we mentioned with people becoming you know, becoming digital 909 00:49:55,080 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 1: versions of themselves. This is this is rife for all. 910 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 1: So a side note, a new era of folklore. Can 911 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:07,160 Speaker 1: you imagine all the urban legends you will literally hear 912 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:11,880 Speaker 1: voices in your head. Your ancestors will not have died, right, 913 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:17,000 Speaker 1: they will still exist. Yeah, you've got beef with your 914 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 1: great uncle. He's still around. 915 00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:24,000 Speaker 6: Now you're saying he's still around because they captured his consciousness. Yes, okay, 916 00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:25,000 Speaker 6: it's funny. 917 00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:25,359 Speaker 4: One of the. 918 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,800 Speaker 6: Technologies they're talking about, but this could be actually a 919 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,400 Speaker 6: lot sooner than a thousand years is just taking enough 920 00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:34,839 Speaker 6: writings and enough other input about a person and their life, 921 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 6: and all of a sudden you input all of that 922 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:39,239 Speaker 6: and you get into augmented or virtual reality and you're 923 00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:42,719 Speaker 6: sitting there having a conversation with Samuel Clemens. You know, 924 00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:47,840 Speaker 6: it's an approximation obviously thereof but but you mean actually 925 00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:49,200 Speaker 6: talking to the person. 926 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:55,839 Speaker 1: Right right, the digital essence the closest we could get 927 00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:59,160 Speaker 1: perhaps to a soul at that point. But it gets 928 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 1: even weird because we will also like, at this point 929 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 1: we're clearly in ship a thesis territory, and this means that, 930 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:13,360 Speaker 1: you know, maybe let's say you have the the digital 931 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:17,799 Speaker 1: ghost of your great great grandmother says, you know what, Brent, 932 00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:23,279 Speaker 1: I remember the Scorpion Wars and I would love to 933 00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:25,759 Speaker 1: go to that museum with you. Just buy me a 934 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 1: body real, right, because now it's just hardware. 935 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:29,960 Speaker 5: Do you know what I mean? 936 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:34,320 Speaker 6: They call him a sleeve? Was that in altered carbon? 937 00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 3: Yes? 938 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 4: Yes, sleeve? 939 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:37,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 940 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:39,720 Speaker 3: All right, guess let's stop right there for a second 941 00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:49,160 Speaker 3: and we'll come right back afterward from our sponsor. All right, 942 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:50,799 Speaker 3: strap in, let's get back in this. 943 00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:55,879 Speaker 6: The other wild card here, Yeah, that could impact every 944 00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:58,799 Speaker 6: aspect of what we've talked about, whether it be how 945 00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:00,879 Speaker 6: we harness power. Do we have the technology to create 946 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:04,399 Speaker 6: a dice in sphere? Uh? Do we have the technology 947 00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:07,959 Speaker 6: to save our Earth? To to do all of these 948 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:15,080 Speaker 6: things would be the interference of another society, extraterrestrials, So 949 00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:17,680 Speaker 6: interdimensional or interdimensional? 950 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 5: Sure? 951 00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:20,919 Speaker 6: I uh. We talked about this on our show a lot. 952 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:24,239 Speaker 6: Whether we believe in aliens, there's two questions always hidden there. 953 00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 6: Do you believe that another form of life exists in 954 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:27,800 Speaker 6: this universe? 955 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:28,640 Speaker 1: Absolutely? 956 00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:31,200 Speaker 6: Second question, do you think they've been here? 957 00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 5: That's exactly exactly we are. 958 00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:38,799 Speaker 6: I don't. I don't think that they've been here, but 959 00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:43,920 Speaker 6: I think we are very very close to them showing up, 960 00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:47,080 Speaker 6: Like I think we're getting farther, far enough along to 961 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:48,960 Speaker 6: be able to send some signals out there to be 962 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 6: able to see things. I think we're I think that 963 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:53,879 Speaker 6: we're going to get to a point very soon where 964 00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:55,120 Speaker 6: they're just going to show up one day. 965 00:52:57,920 --> 00:52:58,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, have our. 966 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:02,920 Speaker 6: From Star Trek first contact, have our warp drive moment 967 00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:07,120 Speaker 6: now the if that happens, which I think is just 968 00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:09,760 Speaker 6: as realistic a possibility as we can upload our conscious 969 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 6: I mean, like it's just the showing up, Hey, they're here, 970 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:17,120 Speaker 6: that if we do acknowledge they exist. You know, if 971 00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:20,400 Speaker 6: depending on how old they are, their technology they're they are, 972 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:22,600 Speaker 6: if they are able to reach us from something that 973 00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:25,920 Speaker 6: we can't see right now, chances are their technology is 974 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:29,640 Speaker 6: so advanced that they could help us, help bring us along. 975 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:33,439 Speaker 6: And I that would I mentioned wild card, that would 976 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:36,520 Speaker 6: be the ultimate wild card, because they're introducing new technologies 977 00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 6: to us that bring us. I don't think it's the 978 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:41,719 Speaker 6: alienation thing where they're just as messed up as we 979 00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:46,759 Speaker 6: are and have the same internal and strife and you know, 980 00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:49,440 Speaker 6: because then it's just that doesn't align to me. How 981 00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,920 Speaker 6: could they have gotten here so quickly with such advanced 982 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:55,120 Speaker 6: technology just to be as you know, but then as 983 00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:55,480 Speaker 6: we are. 984 00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:57,840 Speaker 5: That opens up that whole other, you know, line of 985 00:53:57,880 --> 00:54:00,279 Speaker 5: thinking of if they are that advanced and they're going 986 00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:02,719 Speaker 5: to see that. Why do they care? Right right? 987 00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 1: That's the thing. The question then becomes not whether we 988 00:54:06,719 --> 00:54:11,800 Speaker 1: would be capable of recognizing this as sentient life, It 989 00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:14,799 Speaker 1: would be whether it recognizes us as such. 990 00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:18,840 Speaker 5: Mitchillkaku, he was like he was, everyone sees ant hills. 991 00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:22,000 Speaker 5: When's the last time you said, ants, here are beads 992 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 5: and trinkets. Take me to your your queen. And if 993 00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:28,120 Speaker 5: you do, the ants still know you're talking to them. 994 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:30,400 Speaker 5: Now is the ant dumb because it doesn't understand English? 995 00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:32,480 Speaker 5: Or is it Are you dumb because you're trying to 996 00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 5: talk to an ant? 997 00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:35,399 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm dumb because I've got the magnifying glass out 998 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:36,879 Speaker 6: and I'm trying to burn them with the sun. 999 00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:40,760 Speaker 1: Yeah right. It's just I mean everything gets very quickly 1000 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:44,000 Speaker 1: to the level of stories from the Old Testament, you 1001 00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:47,239 Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like we can we can we 1002 00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:52,320 Speaker 1: can give favor to these ants and they'll say, oh food, 1003 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,880 Speaker 1: or like oh the other ants that we're killing us 1004 00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:59,640 Speaker 1: are mysteriously gone and the land is poisoned. 1005 00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 5: I just wherever we go, if we're ever in that 1006 00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:04,719 Speaker 5: position to where we can be the ones too out there, 1007 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:08,200 Speaker 5: we just build pyramids and leave, you know, and so 1008 00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:10,120 Speaker 5: that way for a generation. 1009 00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:12,359 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a power move, you know what I mean. 1010 00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:17,440 Speaker 7: I vote we get weird with It's just confuse the 1011 00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:20,160 Speaker 7: hell out of them. Let's uh, let's let's give uh 1012 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:26,720 Speaker 7: let's let's give some very basic and wildly arbitrary, irrelevant rules, 1013 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:30,920 Speaker 7: you know what I mean, Like, uh, let's ban people 1014 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,600 Speaker 7: from doing or let's ban a life form from doing 1015 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 7: something very specific with its antenna, or and it's got 1016 00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:42,439 Speaker 7: to be something they would normally have never thought of doing. 1017 00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:44,919 Speaker 5: Right. Uh, but you're but you're right. 1018 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:49,440 Speaker 1: This this span of time, this one thousand years, it 1019 00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 1: inherently includes space exploration at this point, right, very very soon. 1020 00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 1: As far as twenty nineteen went, el on Us was 1021 00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:06,440 Speaker 1: planning to have four ships permanently on a circuit to 1022 00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:09,040 Speaker 1: Mars in the twenty twenty twenty five. 1023 00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:12,399 Speaker 5: Twenty twenty two, they're gonna start sending you Twenty twenty five, 1024 00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 5: I think, is when that's gonna kick into Yeah. 1025 00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, So even if that estimate is wildly optimistic, which 1026 00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:24,720 Speaker 1: it is, But even if even if it's so wildly 1027 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:30,160 Speaker 1: optimistic that that doesn't happen until twenty one to twenty five, 1028 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 1: still another nine hundred years. So if we're going to 1029 00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 1: if we're going to get to space, it is going 1030 00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:40,000 Speaker 1: to be within this time span, which makes it one 1031 00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:44,640 Speaker 1: of the most important eras in human history. And that 1032 00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:48,359 Speaker 1: goes to your your point, John, that will involve us 1033 00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:51,200 Speaker 1: putting out so much noise in the universe, even more 1034 00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:54,399 Speaker 1: than we already have. And we all read those, you know, 1035 00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:59,040 Speaker 1: those kind of bleak dystopian sci fi pieces where we 1036 00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:02,400 Speaker 1: finally get a message from space and it's something cryptic 1037 00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:09,120 Speaker 1: like sh they'll hear you, and that that could be 1038 00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:11,160 Speaker 1: the thing, because we could also find ourselves in a 1039 00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:14,480 Speaker 1: situation we're just speculating. Now, there's not a basis on 1040 00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:16,440 Speaker 1: this as a thought experiment. We can find ourselves in 1041 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:20,919 Speaker 1: a situation where I would advance. This is more likely 1042 00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:23,880 Speaker 1: the meeting of biological life form, where we find the 1043 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 1: creations of some other organic life form and they're really 1044 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:36,440 Speaker 1: into paper clips. We know that Pluto used to be 1045 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:40,720 Speaker 1: an entire sphere, but it's slowly disintegrating, and then we 1046 00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 1: have that calculator. That's the thing, given what we understand 1047 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:50,880 Speaker 1: about travel across these impossibly vast distances, unless they're unless 1048 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:55,160 Speaker 1: they have a propulsion or transit system that redefines our 1049 00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:58,080 Speaker 1: understanding of physics, which they pretty much would have to 1050 00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:02,160 Speaker 1: We would be in one of the worst waiting games ever. 1051 00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:06,160 Speaker 1: We would say, we know something's coming, we know it's 1052 00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:10,240 Speaker 1: not natural. We have four hundred years together. 1053 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:14,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, so people are gonna spuild religions around that. I 1054 00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 5: mean everything, every I mean mass hysteria. 1055 00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:21,160 Speaker 1: And a lot of a lot of religions that we 1056 00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:26,360 Speaker 1: have back in twenty nineteen. I'm riding this dead horse 1057 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:31,120 Speaker 1: to the ground. They will have also changed such that 1058 00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:35,240 Speaker 1: they would they may be widely unrecognizable to people practice 1059 00:58:35,280 --> 00:58:39,840 Speaker 1: them today. Right, the Catholic Church has soldiered throughout the 1060 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:43,440 Speaker 1: years and may well still exist, but may also have 1061 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:45,040 Speaker 1: a very different set of practices. 1062 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:48,560 Speaker 5: Well, they've they've come out in years recent and said like, hey, 1063 00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:51,959 Speaker 5: if aliens come, it's it's okay, It's part of God's plan. 1064 00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:54,800 Speaker 5: It's part of the Bible, you know, all inclusive, bringing 1065 00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:55,160 Speaker 5: on in. 1066 00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 6: I whish you would have been burned for not that 1067 00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:00,920 Speaker 6: long ago, the same thing that. But Ben, I think 1068 00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:03,240 Speaker 6: you bring up a really good point, but you can 1069 00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:05,840 Speaker 6: almost take it to the next level, not just religion, 1070 00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:13,640 Speaker 6: but society and species changes. So continuing along the thought experiment, 1071 00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:16,640 Speaker 6: as a society, we're probably a global society by that point. 1072 00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:19,840 Speaker 6: We probably speak one to two languages as a as 1073 00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:23,800 Speaker 6: a group. The rest are dead languages, and we probably 1074 00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 6: you know, one currency for the planet. I mean, these 1075 00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:28,800 Speaker 6: are just things that are almost inevitable over that time period. 1076 00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:33,640 Speaker 6: If that's the case and we are an interplanetary species, 1077 00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:36,960 Speaker 6: we're going to have to do some of the things 1078 00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:42,520 Speaker 6: that we discussed earlier, some gene editing, some addition of cybernetics, 1079 00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:44,760 Speaker 6: things of that nature. We're going to have to change 1080 00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:48,040 Speaker 6: to live in different environments. So there's probably going to 1081 00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:51,320 Speaker 6: be a group of people. They could be living on 1082 00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 6: the ore cloud there. There will be a group of 1083 00:59:54,720 --> 01:00:00,400 Speaker 6: people at living near Proximus century. All all of these 1084 01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:02,960 Speaker 6: people will have had to have changed and could be 1085 01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:05,160 Speaker 6: gone for long enough periods of time because of how 1086 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:09,919 Speaker 6: long it takes to get there that their heritage there. 1087 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 6: The way they look, they almost would be disassociate themselves 1088 01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:17,520 Speaker 6: from the history of man. They are their own thing. 1089 01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:20,800 Speaker 1: We have created aliens one thousand years. Hence we have 1090 01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:25,320 Speaker 1: created aliens. The most well known to us are probably Martians, correct, 1091 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:29,880 Speaker 1: but The lunar people are pretty weird too. They're like 1092 01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:33,480 Speaker 1: the new Florida. 1093 01:00:33,200 --> 01:00:37,440 Speaker 6: Well it's underwater. They had to go somewhere soon, man, Florida. 1094 01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 1: Man, Yeah, by which I meant awesome. And Disney owns it. 1095 01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:46,960 Speaker 1: But that's that's fantastic though, because now we may have. 1096 01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 5: Also it's the weirdest part this. 1097 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:52,520 Speaker 1: Maybe a thousand years is too small a margin for this, 1098 01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:56,720 Speaker 1: but what if we had a successful colony on Mars 1099 01:00:56,840 --> 01:01:00,240 Speaker 1: somehow survived, not just survive, but thrived, and then and 1100 01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:06,040 Speaker 1: civilization on Earth collapsed, we entered a dark age. We 1101 01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:09,800 Speaker 1: had legends about Martians, but they never screwed up to 1102 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 1: the extent that we did. And they decided to come 1103 01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:18,560 Speaker 1: visit us. They're like, wow, our parents' house is trash. 1104 01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:22,200 Speaker 1: Like that's that would be an alien encounter for us. 1105 01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:26,400 Speaker 1: They would be extraterrestrials, right. But at this point we 1106 01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:30,120 Speaker 1: will have had if we're around it all, we will 1107 01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:35,240 Speaker 1: have had people visiting these places and hopefully living there 1108 01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:40,680 Speaker 1: on a semi permanent basis very quickly, and I think 1109 01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 1: you raised this point earlier, Brett. They will speciate. 1110 01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:49,600 Speaker 5: That or be completely uploaded into some sort of cybernetic 1111 01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:54,400 Speaker 5: you know, Westworld, right, and then then that negates all 1112 01:01:54,440 --> 01:01:55,160 Speaker 5: of that, you. 1113 01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:58,320 Speaker 1: Know, so we may have we may have a situation 1114 01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 1: where everybody on Earth speaks thus one to two languages. 1115 01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:03,920 Speaker 1: That's incredibly likely. 1116 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,000 Speaker 5: But we may be in. 1117 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:08,760 Speaker 1: A situation where someone says, okay, I have to use 1118 01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:15,520 Speaker 1: my cybernetic parts to my my in the cloud software 1119 01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:19,880 Speaker 1: programming because I've got to speak with this martian and 1120 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:22,640 Speaker 1: then who knows what the hell they're talking about. 1121 01:02:22,880 --> 01:02:25,000 Speaker 6: And it becomes even more likely if we play out 1122 01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:29,680 Speaker 6: the scenario we discussed earlier where we're using we start 1123 01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:35,840 Speaker 6: with self replicating robots getting us to other places, and 1124 01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:40,200 Speaker 6: then if we want to go there because we can't 1125 01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:43,280 Speaker 6: survive you know, the five hundred year trip or whatever, 1126 01:02:43,880 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 6: we laser shoot our consciousness there. They like Mitchiukaku, you 1127 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:51,840 Speaker 6: mentioned him earlier, Brent. He talks about a day where 1128 01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 6: we will be cosmic tourists and so oh you want 1129 01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:01,600 Speaker 6: to go, you know, look at this exo planet that is, 1130 01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:05,000 Speaker 6: you know, fifty light years away. We just we shoot 1131 01:03:05,040 --> 01:03:08,440 Speaker 6: through a laser our consciousness there. You've got a robot 1132 01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:10,520 Speaker 6: body waiting there that you rent for the day, and 1133 01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:12,800 Speaker 6: you go look around and see the big volcanoes, and 1134 01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,080 Speaker 6: then you shoot to the next planet and so on 1135 01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:17,960 Speaker 6: and so forth. Now taking that a step back, just 1136 01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:22,120 Speaker 6: the ability to get there, but and and shoot a 1137 01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:25,320 Speaker 6: large laser beams, shoot our consciousness there. If we shoot 1138 01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:29,240 Speaker 6: there and the laser, the laser itself could take five 1139 01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:31,720 Speaker 6: hundred years to get there, depending on how far away 1140 01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:34,240 Speaker 6: it is. There's no time involved to you. You get 1141 01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:36,640 Speaker 6: there and then you know, a thousand of your friends, 1142 01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:38,920 Speaker 6: you start a new all of a sudden, now we've 1143 01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:40,520 Speaker 6: got a new species of robot people. 1144 01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:44,560 Speaker 1: Right, and yeah, and we're again we're much more likely, 1145 01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:47,920 Speaker 1: based on what we understand about sentient life, which is 1146 01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:51,040 Speaker 1: very very little, we're much more likely to run into 1147 01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:55,800 Speaker 1: technology of some sort that sentient life created. It's it's 1148 01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 1: the the Geer kind of example from Star Trek, right. 1149 01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:04,160 Speaker 1: And what's fascinating about that is there's a very important 1150 01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:06,480 Speaker 1: step that we can't we can't miss. And I know, 1151 01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:09,880 Speaker 1: as some of us we're listening along, we said, well, 1152 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:13,960 Speaker 1: all right, send your consciousness through this laser. Robot people 1153 01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:18,280 Speaker 1: come back to Earth, right, return these memories to you know, 1154 01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:23,080 Speaker 1: Matt or John Prime or whatever you call yourselves, to 1155 01:04:23,120 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 1: experience that what that means is they're going to have 1156 01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:29,360 Speaker 1: to reverse the cloud process. They're going to take the 1157 01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:33,919 Speaker 1: relationship between neurons mapped out virtually, and they'll see that 1158 01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:37,240 Speaker 1: and see the difference between that, and then have your 1159 01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:41,640 Speaker 1: neurons performed the same dance so that now you can 1160 01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:44,480 Speaker 1: remember these things. And all you had to do was, 1161 01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 1: you know, to wait, switch bodies whatever, repair yourself for 1162 01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:52,920 Speaker 1: five hundreds to one thousand years geese. So it's it's like, 1163 01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:57,080 Speaker 1: you know, it's there's some time involved. 1164 01:04:57,200 --> 01:05:00,240 Speaker 6: I just want to know one thing, how how long 1165 01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:02,040 Speaker 6: will I need to work to build up that kind 1166 01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:02,800 Speaker 6: of time off? 1167 01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:05,360 Speaker 1: No Ah, that's the question. 1168 01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:07,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'll I'm gonna put my out of office on 1169 01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:09,000 Speaker 6: I'll be back in a thousand years. 1170 01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, DMV. Still terrible. It's still terrible. 1171 01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:18,320 Speaker 3: It is crazy to imagine that perhaps one day our 1172 01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:22,000 Speaker 3: species will think of time on that kind of scale. 1173 01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:24,560 Speaker 1: I think we would have won't have to inevitably, or 1174 01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:27,919 Speaker 1: it'll just be an illusory thing. 1175 01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:29,120 Speaker 5: We know that. 1176 01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:34,480 Speaker 1: We'll have a terraforming down pat It will still be 1177 01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:37,240 Speaker 1: it'll be an imperfect science, but we'll have a lot 1178 01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:40,240 Speaker 1: better idea of what we're working with and what the 1179 01:05:40,320 --> 01:05:44,040 Speaker 1: scale is we will have finally answered your earlier question, gentlemen, 1180 01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:47,200 Speaker 1: whether it's better to use a laser or nuclear weapon 1181 01:05:47,760 --> 01:05:51,440 Speaker 1: on the on the poles of Mars. Yes, we'll have 1182 01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:56,200 Speaker 1: new energy sources, some of which we're going to have 1183 01:05:56,320 --> 01:06:03,280 Speaker 1: a difficulty comprehending. In twenty nineteen, harnessing interactions in higher 1184 01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:08,280 Speaker 1: dimensions or different dimensions will also have utility fog. 1185 01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:10,560 Speaker 4: Which is the utility fog. 1186 01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:13,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like a well thought experiment now, but it's like, 1187 01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:19,040 Speaker 1: so the philosopher's stone in alchemy can transform any substance 1188 01:06:19,040 --> 01:06:22,960 Speaker 1: into any other substance, utility cloud, a utility fog. Rather, 1189 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:27,320 Speaker 1: it's kind of like a nanotech version of that. You 1190 01:06:27,360 --> 01:06:31,880 Speaker 1: can say, well, I'm I enjoy this domicile, but now 1191 01:06:31,920 --> 01:06:34,240 Speaker 1: I want something a bit more what do they call 1192 01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:38,200 Speaker 1: it Southwestern? I want something with a Pueblo feel. Make 1193 01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:42,400 Speaker 1: it so, and then this fog, these nanobots would just 1194 01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:48,760 Speaker 1: rearrange into whatever they thought you meant. Now Hopefully, hopefully 1195 01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:54,080 Speaker 1: it won't be as fraught with hilarious error as telling 1196 01:06:54,680 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 1: your Amazon or your Google Home in twenty nineteen, what 1197 01:06:59,000 --> 01:06:59,720 Speaker 1: song you want to hear? 1198 01:06:59,800 --> 01:07:00,000 Speaker 5: Right? 1199 01:07:00,720 --> 01:07:01,880 Speaker 6: T Oh Gray Hot. 1200 01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:05,400 Speaker 5: It's like it's like a crazy three D printer from 1201 01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:09,480 Speaker 5: the future. Yes, yeah, just a living, breathing three D printer. 1202 01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:14,160 Speaker 6: Well, I just made the quite necessary Star Trek the 1203 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:18,720 Speaker 6: next generation reference, Yeah, the better series. Sorry, yeah, I know, 1204 01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:22,680 Speaker 6: I just made a hot take. Hot you just started 1205 01:07:22,720 --> 01:07:31,120 Speaker 6: a war, Yes, Kirker Picard, you decide No, they thank you? 1206 01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:32,080 Speaker 5: Uh? They. 1207 01:07:32,920 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 6: The one thing we haven't talked about with all of 1208 01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:40,120 Speaker 6: this is, okay, but what if we do achieve faster 1209 01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:42,240 Speaker 6: than light travel, or what if we do find a 1210 01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:44,800 Speaker 6: way to bend space time to where you can you know, 1211 01:07:45,040 --> 01:07:47,880 Speaker 6: warp seven and and we just virus out everywhere. 1212 01:07:47,960 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, that is just in a word, it's gonna be baller. Yeah, 1213 01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:57,760 Speaker 1: because like we can, we will be able to finally 1214 01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:01,280 Speaker 1: confirm things that we have worn wandered about since we 1215 01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:03,280 Speaker 1: were able to wonder about things. 1216 01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:04,479 Speaker 5: Are we rare? 1217 01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:07,800 Speaker 1: Are we alone in the universe? And by the time, 1218 01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:11,400 Speaker 1: by the time we take time out of the equation, 1219 01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:14,360 Speaker 1: which is tricky, but that is the right way to 1220 01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:18,519 Speaker 1: say it in English, then all bets are off. Everything 1221 01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:21,280 Speaker 1: has changed. You know, if you are if you are 1222 01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:24,839 Speaker 1: warping time in space, then you can visit ten nineteen 1223 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:28,760 Speaker 1: if you so wished it right. I don't know if 1224 01:08:28,800 --> 01:08:31,280 Speaker 1: people would or if we recognize, because now at this 1225 01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:41,400 Speaker 1: point in thirty nineteen, people are recognizable to us, but 1226 01:08:41,720 --> 01:08:46,400 Speaker 1: we are We are early man to them, right, And 1227 01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:50,840 Speaker 1: we use our hands to do things, not out of 1228 01:08:50,840 --> 01:08:53,240 Speaker 1: some sort of fashion statement, but because we have to. 1229 01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:56,000 Speaker 3: We still eat a whole bunch of food. 1230 01:08:56,479 --> 01:08:56,679 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1231 01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:59,720 Speaker 1: No, here's the thing. So we've talked about this in 1232 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:03,760 Speaker 1: the past. Human beings. Now we think of ourselves as individuals, 1233 01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:10,000 Speaker 1: but we're much closer to cities ourselves, given all the 1234 01:09:10,040 --> 01:09:14,080 Speaker 1: cells that outnumber us, that live inside us. And this 1235 01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:16,840 Speaker 1: trend will continue, and in a thousand years again, if 1236 01:09:16,880 --> 01:09:21,120 Speaker 1: people are still around and nothing super horrific and existential occurs, 1237 01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:26,839 Speaker 1: we are going to redefine. Our privacy will be gone longer. 1238 01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:31,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, privacy is a relatively recent notion in twenty nineteen, 1239 01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:34,080 Speaker 1: and that's probably when it started to die now too, 1240 01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:40,040 Speaker 1: But by thirty nineteen, privacy will be a weird alien 1241 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:42,760 Speaker 1: why would you do that concept? And the concept of 1242 01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:46,479 Speaker 1: the individual will change as well, because the individual will 1243 01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:49,599 Speaker 1: be just the way that our consciousness now is an 1244 01:09:49,640 --> 01:09:53,720 Speaker 1: agglomeration or the sum total of interactions between neurons. We 1245 01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:59,120 Speaker 1: will each individually be a networked node of several different things. 1246 01:09:59,240 --> 01:10:04,160 Speaker 1: You won't just have have one cloud consciousness, You'll have multiple. 1247 01:10:04,200 --> 01:10:08,200 Speaker 1: You'll be a group mind, and at times that group 1248 01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:10,920 Speaker 1: mind might not agree with what you consider. 1249 01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:12,160 Speaker 5: You, which is freaky. 1250 01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:17,400 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it's It's something we've always stated in 1251 01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:21,160 Speaker 1: multiple languages throughout ancient history, when people like I'm on 1252 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:23,280 Speaker 1: the fence, I'm of two minds about that, you will 1253 01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:24,879 Speaker 1: be of several hundred. 1254 01:10:25,200 --> 01:10:29,640 Speaker 3: Right, Well, guys, in the end, no matter, you know, 1255 01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:32,959 Speaker 3: all the things we've discussed so far in this episode, 1256 01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:35,880 Speaker 3: all of us in this room, the four of us, 1257 01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:38,680 Speaker 3: Paul out there, everyone listening in their office right now, 1258 01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:43,040 Speaker 3: and oh, Conspiracy bo I didn't even see you back there. 1259 01:10:43,200 --> 01:10:46,200 Speaker 4: He must be recharging drunk. Oh, that's what it is. 1260 01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:49,120 Speaker 6: They eventually pass out, so all. 1261 01:10:48,960 --> 01:10:51,240 Speaker 3: Of us, you know, in the end, we're all gonna 1262 01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:54,320 Speaker 3: get together in twenty nineteen and decide that our species 1263 01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:57,599 Speaker 3: is going to move forward towards the future. We're gonna 1264 01:10:57,600 --> 01:11:01,080 Speaker 3: steer our planet and our civilization in the direction of 1265 01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:03,439 Speaker 3: a utopian thirty nineteen. 1266 01:11:04,439 --> 01:11:05,639 Speaker 5: Yeah, can we. 1267 01:11:05,600 --> 01:11:07,920 Speaker 1: Get some inspired, inspiring music under that. 1268 01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:14,680 Speaker 3: I'm totally totally kidding, guys, all of the decisions that 1269 01:11:14,760 --> 01:11:18,519 Speaker 3: could lead to any type of utopian future will be 1270 01:11:18,560 --> 01:11:22,240 Speaker 3: made in corporate boardrooms and in government situation rooms, and 1271 01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:25,559 Speaker 3: the decisions will be based on profits and margins and 1272 01:11:25,640 --> 01:11:26,639 Speaker 3: election cycles. 1273 01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:29,040 Speaker 4: The end we fizzle out. 1274 01:11:29,560 --> 01:11:32,280 Speaker 1: I mean for some for some point of time. Oh, 1275 01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:35,640 Speaker 1: I wish we had more time. I find myself this 1276 01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:38,400 Speaker 1: is unusual for us, Matt. I find myself a little 1277 01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:39,440 Speaker 1: bit more optimistic. 1278 01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:40,960 Speaker 4: I think it's because of these guys. 1279 01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:45,320 Speaker 1: It probably is. And speaking of John and Brent, maybe 1280 01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:50,640 Speaker 1: we should maybe we should end on a end on 1281 01:11:50,840 --> 01:11:54,519 Speaker 1: a cooperative new and go around the table. First off, guys, 1282 01:11:54,840 --> 01:11:57,160 Speaker 1: thank you so much for coming on our show on 1283 01:11:57,200 --> 01:12:01,960 Speaker 1: behalf of us and our listeners. Secondly, two questions. We'll 1284 01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:06,800 Speaker 1: start with you John. One, what of the things we've 1285 01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:10,760 Speaker 1: examined day, what do you find most exciting? And two, 1286 01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:13,400 Speaker 1: what do you find most terrifying? Oh, if you had to. 1287 01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:15,479 Speaker 6: Choose, let me do an reverse order. I think the 1288 01:12:15,560 --> 01:12:21,599 Speaker 6: most terrifying is the idea of moving from where we 1289 01:12:21,640 --> 01:12:28,280 Speaker 6: are to that next phase two where we become a 1290 01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:33,280 Speaker 6: first or second class civilization according to the Karda chev scale. 1291 01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:37,240 Speaker 6: I think the road between here and there is littered 1292 01:12:37,280 --> 01:12:39,679 Speaker 6: with a lot of potholes that could that could be 1293 01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:44,439 Speaker 6: really really take us off track and could become one 1294 01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:47,320 Speaker 6: of those existential threats, whichever one you want to talk about. 1295 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:49,479 Speaker 6: I mean, I think they're all just as likely as 1296 01:12:49,760 --> 01:12:53,760 Speaker 6: one's just as likely as another. You know, That's what 1297 01:12:53,960 --> 01:12:57,320 Speaker 6: that's the most terrifying part, because and the reason that's 1298 01:12:57,360 --> 01:13:00,920 Speaker 6: the most terrifying is I'm a pretty big optimist when 1299 01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:03,360 Speaker 6: it comes to these things. I think a lot of 1300 01:13:03,400 --> 01:13:07,040 Speaker 6: negative human behavior is driven by need and necessity. Certainly 1301 01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:09,559 Speaker 6: some people are driven by power, but that power is 1302 01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:13,000 Speaker 6: rooted in the power that other people will give to them. 1303 01:13:13,479 --> 01:13:17,599 Speaker 6: And if the masses are fairly happy, they're not going 1304 01:13:17,680 --> 01:13:21,400 Speaker 6: to allow a tyrant to run them in just my 1305 01:13:21,560 --> 01:13:24,920 Speaker 6: one guy's thought. So I think that if we are 1306 01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:27,160 Speaker 6: able to get to eight thousand years from now, and 1307 01:13:27,200 --> 01:13:30,439 Speaker 6: we have made it past these existential threats, I do 1308 01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:33,080 Speaker 6: see a little bit more utopian. I think we'll be 1309 01:13:33,160 --> 01:13:38,160 Speaker 6: interacting with other alien species, and I think it will 1310 01:13:38,439 --> 01:13:45,479 Speaker 6: we will be a multiplanetary, perhaps multi galaxial if that's 1311 01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:48,000 Speaker 6: not a word I just made it up. Sound's pretty 1312 01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:51,240 Speaker 6: cool species. And I think it could be a really 1313 01:13:51,400 --> 01:13:52,679 Speaker 6: really cool future. 1314 01:13:52,680 --> 01:13:53,479 Speaker 4: We just got to get there. 1315 01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:56,920 Speaker 5: I think for me, the thing that is the most 1316 01:13:56,960 --> 01:14:00,960 Speaker 5: exciting is the thought of the exploration out there, what 1317 01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:03,960 Speaker 5: we could do. You know, It's one of those things 1318 01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:05,479 Speaker 5: you can just shut your brain off and think and 1319 01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:08,280 Speaker 5: there's really no wrong answers because we don't know. 1320 01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:09,400 Speaker 4: And that's what's awesome. 1321 01:14:10,080 --> 01:14:12,240 Speaker 5: The scariest part of that ties into that too, is 1322 01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:15,120 Speaker 5: I'm still hung up on the whole uploading of our 1323 01:14:15,160 --> 01:14:18,599 Speaker 5: consciousness and what we will be if in a thousand years, 1324 01:14:18,640 --> 01:14:20,080 Speaker 5: for us to be able to do those things, will 1325 01:14:20,120 --> 01:14:21,160 Speaker 5: we still be human? 1326 01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:21,800 Speaker 3: You know? 1327 01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:25,000 Speaker 5: And you know that's what's a mean to be human? 1328 01:14:25,160 --> 01:14:27,800 Speaker 5: You know. I think it's the big question. And for 1329 01:14:27,920 --> 01:14:31,320 Speaker 5: us to be able to explore the cosmos, to go 1330 01:14:31,360 --> 01:14:32,880 Speaker 5: out to survive, we're gonna have to make a lot 1331 01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:37,439 Speaker 5: of changes, you know, internally, externally physically, and what that 1332 01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:39,760 Speaker 5: does to us is a big question mark to me. 1333 01:14:40,880 --> 01:14:44,280 Speaker 3: Wow, Well, gentlemen, thank you so much for coming on 1334 01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:44,639 Speaker 3: the show. 1335 01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:46,880 Speaker 5: Well, thank you for having us all last. 1336 01:14:48,680 --> 01:14:51,000 Speaker 3: Just why don't you tell everybody a little bit more 1337 01:14:51,080 --> 01:14:54,160 Speaker 3: about hysteria fifty one where they can find you, what 1338 01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:55,679 Speaker 3: they should be listening to and everything. 1339 01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:57,880 Speaker 6: So if you haven't listened to Hysteria fifty one.
