No, we are the good guys. You remember the species we've enslaved some thousands years ago? I've paid paper to kill one of them in cold blood and fried its internals, let's go have a nice steak with me.
Not on a cognitive level, no, but as far as doing tasks such as doing calculations, winning games, and even the existence of the internet as a hub of knowledge proves that we can use machines to cover many of the weak points our brains possess.
@@Connor_Kirkpatrick a robot can show or surpass a human on a single individual task, but you try to opérate said robot outside of it's designsted job and it's capabilities fall dramatically, robots are designed to do one single job excedingly well, but only one job, theoretical general artificial inteligence would likely not be better at any given task than a human already is unless specifically designed to do so and we don't even know if the creation of a superior artificial inteligence is posible, also as stated humans can upgrade themselves using a transhumanist approach
Humans posess one other defining trait. And that is their curiosity, and lust for knowledge. If you give a human a rope with a knot tied in it, and give no other instructions, they will untie it. Or give them a problem or a puzzle, and they will try to solve it. On top of that they even get pleasure out of doing so. Humans are intelligent creatures. Not becouse they "know", but because they know HOW to know. Maybe their brains can't comprehend some concepts, but then, they can and will create MACHINES that do, or that could help them comprehend. Dont underestimate that part of them. Those are not just 'some' traits, those are very much so their most defining traits.
It's even worse: one human was one given a knot to untie, however they could not figure it out. So, the human simply cut the knot into pieces. If a human for one reason or another cannot solve a problem, they will destroy it.
humans also seem to be growing and learning exponentialy its unknown how many humans there are exactly but the learning part is known since we observed them they have created copper swords and it took them 4 times as long to get to iron swords then from those iron swords to nuclear bombs we predict they will have achieved ftl capabilaty within the next 150 galactic rotations once they have achieved ftl they will bring weapons since humans are violent as depicted in what they call ''tv series'' which are presumably future plans and historical documents they plan on putting plasma based lasers on all their vessels also expected new technology is terraforming expected to be achieved within the next 234 rotations once they achieve that any planet they land on will be theirs

Aliens: We have others to do that task. I only point and travel. Others steer. Others break. Others turn the FTL drives. We are United as one species. Humans: Huh. Neat.
I’ve never thought of it that way. An alien civilisation might be far less vicious and savage than us. After all, good cooperation should certainly improve advancement
True. We've evolved so that competition is the best way for us to gain effective results and advancements, but perhaps other forms of life would have other ways of 'motivating' technological and social progress. Very interesting to think about.

No, pandemics are entirely predictable. Like a splash of ink in a bathtub of water: You need to stir a lot for it to spread everywhere. Guess what fast international travel (airplanes) does to the human species. We could have had mostly seperate buckets that only occasionally mingle a bit and even then only slowly, but we decided that even though we haven't even visited any of our local museums we should go to the other side of the planet as often as possible to visit musea there.
When thinking about aliens, most people automatically assume that the aliens will always be stronger. But what if we are? what if they, for example, die when exposed to very strong magnets?
Having the aliens be stronger usually helps make the narrative clear and smooth, or fulfills a narrative need. One notable exception in science fiction is actually Star Wars, when you think about it. Most of the alien *people* don't seem to have much advantage over humans, who seem to be far more common galaxy-wide.
This seems like an extended trailer for the Deathworlders literary universe, wherein aliens realise how mind-bogglingly resilient humans are ("They can keep going after breaking a leg?!?" "They can survive in temperatures between -40 and +50 C?!?") and treat us as a threat potentially bigger than the current apex predator race of cyborgs. Who are pissed at these upstarts stealing their thunder. I highly recommend it.

side note:humans have been shown to be capable of making machines superior to themselves
Robot are not even near of the brain capacity, at least not by today 04/2020
Not on a cognitive level, no, but as far as doing tasks such as doing calculations, winning games, and even the existence of the internet as a hub of knowledge proves that we can use machines to cover many of the weak points our brains possess.
@@Connor_Kirkpatrick a robot can show or surpass a human on a single individual task, but you try to opérate said robot outside of it's designsted job and it's capabilities fall dramatically, robots are designed to do one single job excedingly well, but only one job, theoretical general artificial inteligence would likely not be better at any given task than a human already is unless specifically designed to do so and we don't even know if the creation of a superior artificial inteligence is posible, also as stated humans can upgrade themselves using a transhumanist approach
Humans posess one other defining trait. And that is their curiosity, and lust for knowledge.
If you give a human a rope with a knot tied in it, and give no other instructions, they will untie it. Or give them a problem or a puzzle, and they will try to solve it. On top of that they even get pleasure out of doing so.
Humans are intelligent creatures. Not becouse they "know", but because they know HOW to know. Maybe their brains can't comprehend some concepts, but then, they can and will create MACHINES that do, or that could help them comprehend. Dont underestimate that part of them.
Those are not just 'some' traits, those are very much so their most defining traits.
It's even worse: one human was one given a knot to untie, however they could not figure it out. So, the human simply cut the knot into pieces. If a human for one reason or another cannot solve a problem, they will destroy it.
humans also seem to be growing and learning exponentialy
its unknown how many humans there are exactly
but the learning part is known
since we observed them they have created copper swords and it took them 4 times as long to get to iron swords then from those iron swords to nuclear bombs
we predict they will have achieved ftl capabilaty within the next 150 galactic rotations
once they have achieved ftl they will bring weapons since humans are violent
as depicted in what they call ''tv series'' which are presumably future plans and historical documents
they plan on putting plasma based lasers on all their vessels
also expected new technology is terraforming expected to be achieved within the next 234 rotations
once they achieve that any planet they land on will be theirs
They wanted to warn others, not to get more aliens to wanna visit

I’ve never thought of it that way. An alien civilisation might be far less vicious and savage than us. After all, good cooperation should certainly improve advancement
True. We've evolved so that competition is the best way for us to gain effective results and advancements, but perhaps other forms of life would have other ways of 'motivating' technological and social progress. Very interesting to think about.

When thinking about aliens, most people automatically assume that the aliens will always be stronger. But what if we are? what if they, for example, die when exposed to very strong magnets?
just hide in an mri room
"Pocket Magnet, go!"
get the monster magnet, a 6 pack of beer, and go *nuts*
Having the aliens be stronger usually helps make the narrative clear and smooth, or fulfills a narrative need. One notable exception in science fiction is actually Star Wars, when you think about it. Most of the alien *people* don't seem to have much advantage over humans, who seem to be far more common galaxy-wide.
What if bullets can’t hurt them but lead can
This seems like an extended trailer for the Deathworlders literary universe, wherein aliens realise how mind-bogglingly resilient humans are ("They can keep going after breaking a leg?!?" "They can survive in temperatures between -40 and +50 C?!?") and treat us as a threat potentially bigger than the current apex predator race of cyborgs. Who are pissed at these upstarts stealing their thunder.
