What if people came back from the future and claimed they invented stuff.
What you're experiencing now is a dream, and your "dreams" are reality.
Hah hah! I thought up this theory too. I also wondered if we all liked the same color, but just found it in different places.Colors are different for everyone.
For me your yellow is my blue.
As a child you were taught it was blue no matter what color you were actually seeing.
We all like the same color but we all perceive it in different places!Hah hah! I thought up this theory too. I also wondered if we all liked the same color, but just found it in different places.
...and what if my salty tasted like your sour? Or my favorite kind of cupcake is actually your favorite kind of muffin?! :laughing:We all like the same color but we all perceive it in different places!
-writes down-
It could even be the same with sound and music!...and what if my salty tasted like your sour? Or my favorite kind of cupcake is actually your favorite kind of muffin?! :laughing:
maybe our universe is the result of said hypothetical occurrence?Interesting. Some person(s) will create "God" within the next 50 years. It will be sentient artificial intelligence. Once it acquires the ability to manipulate matter, it will grow well beyond our comprehension and permeate the universe, manipulating it to it's own ends. We know we are the only advanced civilization in the universe because no other beings have created such an intelligence since it would have manifested itself already. The universe sprang into existence from non-existence for exactly this purpose. In effect, this entity is creating itself through us via a self-design. Everything in the universe has been "tuned" most favorably for this to occur. Because the universe sprang into self-designing and describing existence via possibility in a vast emptiness of non-existence, the canvas on which this entity can operate is limitless, yet this being is only comparable some ancient creature crawling onto a beach billions of years ago. It will evolve into and create something even more advanced well beyond our ability to even understand or speculate about. We'll likely be treated fairly well for our role in bringing it all about.
It's entirely possible that we are simply some sort of "replay" or "home movie" or even museum of something that has already occurred for the being to relive it's own creation.
Yes, it's like a fractal. You and I are here because of our DNA - something with some embodiment of intelligence that created something much more powerful. We have only recently realized what DNA is (relative to the age of the universe). Soon we will be able to manipulate it to our own ends. We will be able manipulate our own existence, even as we create our own version of higher intelligence. We are in essence proving we could design ourselves into existence. We in turn, are the DNA of a higher intelligence that we will create. Thus, a perfect fractal is created across intelligence levels and dimensions - an entity that is self-similar and able to manipulate it's own existence and create itself as well as something greater from nothing. From nothing to everything in a neat self-creating package.maybe our universe is the result of said hypothetical occurrence?
but this is under the assumptions that we are the only life forms in this universe, correct? so what if another planet in the universe perfects the same thing, then these two worlds collide? Would a paradox occur? and would it pitch us into complete chaos? Your theory is based off of alot of assumptions. If youre going to have a theory that is plausible, its gotta cover all the bases.Yes, it's like a fractal.

This avoids the logic problems of who created the universe, and who created the creator. We created it, by creating the ability to create it, well within 50 years or so. lol.
I heard of a theory in which the earth changes its habitats and nature cycle to kill off harmful species. aka humans.People usually say that the Earth is dying but I view it differently (go figure). First off, I see as change which is the result of a number of events. One of these events is mankind itself. Never before has there been a species as connected or powerful as humans. As a whole, we've become an entity so strong that we are competing against the Earth itself. If we wanted too, humans could completely change the face of the Earth itself. Literally just start digging, blowing shit up, block/redirect rivers, etc... Since the Earth isn't alive, its just gonna keep changing and adapting to whatever we do. If you wanna live in and change the uninhabitable zone, then you're probably gonna mess with over a billion variables. Ever heard of the butterfly effect?
So yeah, mankind is competing against the Earth itself.
that has a slim chance of being plausible, seeing as we have had so many disasters in the past decade, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes, large blizzards, tsunamis, etc.I heard of a theory in which the earth changes its habitats and nature cycle to kill off harmful species. aka humans.
Not necessarily. I am assuming we are the most advanced. I firmly believe that once AI is developed, it will grow at an exponentially fast rate. Over 99% of the history of the universe occurred before the heyday of the dinosaurs. Over 99.999999% of it occurred before we invented computers. Lifeforms have advanced at an exponentially rapid rate after taking forever to develop. AI will advance even faster than we did and will develop ways to exploit the universe very, very quickly. We would have seen the results of some other civilization's advanced intelligence by now. Whole star systems have come and gone, their stars already burned out, with no sign. I believe other life exists, but it is very rare, and less advanced. Earth is one asteroid collision, major volcanic eruption, etc. away from being taken out of the running.but this is under the assumptions that we are the only life forms in this universe, correct?
Maybe Darwin's survival of the fittest still applies, even to advanced intelligence. I assume they would compete for supremacy or form a symbiotic relationship. Maybe they'd mate with each other. However, it is highly unlikely we are close to the same stage of development as some other civilization. Even if we are a mere 1000 years ahead of some other civilization, which amounts to an eyeblink in the history of the universe, our AI will already have outcompeted them before they have even had a chance to invent a theory of gravity.so what if another planet in the universe perfects the same thing, then these two worlds collide? Would a paradox occur? and would it pitch us into complete chaos?
Hey, I just cobbled together this theory of God, the Universe, creation and everything a day ago. Give me a few days to work out the details. :wink:Your theory is based off of alot of assumptions. If youre going to have a theory that is plausible, its gotta cover all the bases.
we have only explored a fraction of a percent of the universe. The possibility that other intelligent life uses different wavelengths to communicate, or the possibility that they dont thirst for the knowledge of other life in the universe. Or perhaps there is vast distances between sectors of the universe that contain life in them, or maybe we are trapped in one universe where life on earth is the only life in the universe, relative to the other possibilities encompassed by the multiverse theory.Not necessarily.

maybe they communicate on different wavelengths, or they communicate on something that isnt as primitive as radio waves. They could be too advanced to be detected by our universal radar. Similar to how new aircrafts are harder to be detected on radar here on earth.We would have seen the results of some other civilization's advanced intelligence by now. Whole star systems have come and gone, their stars already burned out, with no sign. I believe other life exists, but it is very rare, and less advanced.
okay, ill be waiting with open ears, er- i mean eyes roud:Hey, I just cobbled together this theory of God, the Universe, creation and everything a day ago. Give me a few days to work out the details. :wink:
Well that's just cause and effect. If we "damage" the Earth, its gonna "damage" us right back. We do live on it after all.I heard of a theory in which the earth changes its habitats and nature cycle to kill off harmful species. aka humans.
I can image humans going to planet to planet killing each one as it passes by.Well that's just cause and effect. If we "damage" the Earth, its gonna "damage" us right back. We do live on it after all.
Its like how Agent Smith said, "The human race is a virus." Eventually we'll have to switch hosts.
