Extinctions, bottlenecks and filters.




There must be civilizations less advanced than us, obviously, but a civilization less advanced than us, in the first place, would not be emitting radio signals. We have been emitting them recently, nor could it capture our signals, which means we cannot communicate with them. Obviously there will have to be many and they will surely decrease with the passage of time. What am I referring to? The issue of filters.


We are here after having passed a significant number, because recently a new very old mass extinction was published from about 500 million years ago, but we are the survivors of a series of mass extinctions and then also humanity itself went through a series of critical moments, bottlenecks, some due to natural catastrophes such as the eruption of Tonga, about 60,000 years ago, others due to plagues, others mysterious like the bottleneck of almost a million years ago that reduced our ancestors, not our species, nor other species with which the ancestors of humans mixed at that time, who were not homo sapiens, but our direct ancestors, because the analysis, the research was done based on our genes, analyzing That is, going back, there was a time 900,000 years ago where there were only about 1400 of our ancestors.




All of us, the 8.4 billion humans on planet Earth right now come from those 1,400 or 1,500 humans. who survived for a fairly long period of about 50,000 or 60,000 years, I seem to remember, and we don't know why there was that bottleneck, but we all come from there, from those survivors and those who will come in the future, of course, because we will have to face the challenges of having an increasingly greater technological power and that we may not know how to control, for example, atomic weapons or biological weapons or runaway artificial intelligence or that some use it to For dark purposes, there must be a series of challenges that must be overcome.


We already have some of them before us, that is why I say that the most evolved and technologically advanced civilizations may reduce their number over time because they are facing these challenges and in some cases they will have become extinct because they will not have been able to overcome it. How many human civilizations have perished throughout history? Some were greatly reduced and then able to prosper, others disappeared forever. In some cases we are clear about what happened to them, in others not so much. I remind you without spoiling too much that in 2001 the space odyssey, the computer, the computer that controlled the ship did not go crazy, because it went crazy on its own, but because it had contradictory orders, it could be, as I said before, that someone with evil purposes programmed an artificial intelligence and it went crazy or it could be that we made a mistake when programming an artificial intelligence and it entered a terrible loop where it went crazy because of the contradictions of our programming errors, which may also be there.




Additionally, I inform you something very related to the topic, and that is that the United States government has already chosen two domains, this was a week ago, on March 18, the United States government registered the domains aliens.gop and alien.gob, if you go now you will not see anything in them, but they are supposed to be the portal where all this information that is released will be published, I already say that it will go like a dropper, I suppose it will be something every week, data, information bases and if I were a researcher on ocean or air issues or any of these things, I would point these addresses because surely there is some interesting topic that they can reveal.


There is also talk that they are going to release videos, photos, images, etc., so I would point out these two addresses, at the moment there is nothing, as of today, Tuesday, there is nothing, but maybe next week they will start publishing things.
