RE: The Fermi Paradox and Our Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence
There are theories about fermi paradox, and one of the solution could be there are some type II civilizations who can harness the energy of the entire star with a Dyson sphare, and they simply upload their brain to computers to live almost forever. These type of civilizations wouldn't search the universe for life like us, they just want to hide and live their life.
So it is a really possible future for us.
Also if you are interested in this subject this 2 video is really good about Fermi paradox:
Thanks for the links! Yeah, as long as we can gather enough power to sustain the population, it should be doable. Would just need a population management algorithm to keep the numbers sustainable.
I don't think a population size management algorithm would be necessary, why not simply have an algorithm to keep the people moats likely to get along and be productive together in the same instances. I know that, in an infinite life I and probably many others would be happy to devote some of it to the problem of capturing more stars and or other means of obtaining ever larger quantities of power. We could possibly be infinite (and probably Viewed as evil 😕.) but we could Atleast live much longer and have a vastly larger population than a simple fleshy existence on inhabitable worlds would allow.
That would be another possible approach, for sure. There will probably be a bunch of different models experimented with and the better ones will prevail.
Related to Dyson spheres: there were news a couple of weeks ago about a strange behavior of a star. It seems that Dyson spheres could exist. This means the possibility of a such advanced species are big. We have 0,7 in the Chandrasekhar list, right ?
Yes, there is a really interesting star out there. Here is a really good ted talks video about it.
