High production, his unique cadence, the rhythm and flow, and how the videos are made/produced and let’s not forget the interesting subjects. He was one of the first channels to do these type of videos successfully and the others modeled themselves after him and not much has changed since. He mastered the formula and other channels have been copying him since. He was one of the first to start this thirst for knowledge niche on YT and to be so successful at it.

      I understand you. We will be more intelligent, more healthy, and we would advance at a rate ten times more shocking than the rate electricity gave us. But that comes at a cost. Our culture. What we have constructed in our existance will be replaced, one by one, building by building, language by language, by a more efficient, futuristic, and beautiful one. By a non-human one. Piece by piece, the human cultures would fade away. If an alien would ask us today "What have you achieved as a species, without the help of any other?" We could be talking for hours about incredible things that we have made by ourselves, while two thousand years later, we would be silent or refer only to the distant past. Which would be like talking about Rome or Ancient Egypt. Fascinating, but ancient and outdated. I am not saying that the sacrifice of our culture is not worth it, because it really, REALLY is worth it. Just saying that we have a larger opportunity to enjoy our own culture than our distant children will.

    When speeding up video, the audio frequencies are sped up as well. This can be remedied by shifting the pitch back to the pitch of normal playing speed. The same could be done with light. Once it has shifted to higher frequencies, the frequencies could be reduced to bring the shifted light back into the visible spectrum of human vision.

      The paradox is that, if the universe is as old as we think it is, and infinitely large as we think it is, probability determines that there IS life out there on a similar technological level as us, but there also SHOULD exist life eons more advanced. Given the age of the universe and the possible age of life within it, interstellar travel should be happening already if it is possible, and so raises the question of why we haven't been visited.
      So, it's most-likely impossible, or so nearly impossible that it's incredibly rare, or so nearly impossible that life usually goes extinct before ever effectively achieving it.

  • @TheLegoJungle
    @TheLegoJungle 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    It’s so poetic to me to think that we’re in the only place where life exists. Leads to the idea that we are burdened with the power to discover. Because if not for us, the universe wouldn’t even know it existed. Since there would be no one to note its existence. It’s a lonely idea but I feel like this line of thinking would push us even more to learning and discovering the cosmos. Because who else is going to?

    • @Chazulu2
      @Chazulu2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      A) You can't know that for sure because of the possibility that Plautonism, Panpsychism, spiritual dimensions or other such ideas might be true.
      B) Who care what the universe "knows." It's an object, with conscious life inside of it. You even subconsciously imply that when you use the word "it" instead of "they."
      Example:
      "The class of philosophy 101 knew that the Final exam would be worth 70% of its grade, so it all showed up on time."
      "The employees were tired of working for minimum wage so it striked for better pay."
      "The contents of my bedroom was devastated because I left my bathroom, and now the contents of my bathroom no longer knows itself."
      No one talks like that, and it's weird to think like that. Morality in the vast majority of philosophies is for and with respect to people (or God).
      Plus, the extreme version of that line of thinking is pro "I Am Legend" or keeping "the universe knowing itself" as rare as 1 person. Why does "we're the only place" stop at the boundaries of the atmosphere and not the boundaries of the galaxy or your country or your house?
      Also, there's a lot of historical and archeological mysteries on earth. Why was such and such building built, what was such and such weird gizmo used for, what subjects did books in the library of Alexandria tend to be written about?
      These are examples of actual lost knowledge about our past and what life was like before modern technology. Discovering life on other planets going thru the iron age, making similar sorts of things and being able to study and observe them would definitely be more of a motivating "push" towards learning and discovery than a cosmos filled with nothing but lifeless rocks and gasses.

      Very true wkblauwster, i actually always think about that, but I don't see how we could be the only planet in the entire universe with living organisms, that would be a bit ridiculous. I think that there are living beings in forms so foreign to us, that we pass over them without giving it a thought. Like, maybe there are living planets.

      demon mutant ninja zombie What if there WAS life on another planet, but it was wiped out by some cataclysmic extinction event on their planet? Or they figured out we were here, and died trying to get to us? I am a strong believer that we are not alone in this universe. The chance of habitable conditions for life as we know it is incredibly slim, but divided by the estimated amount of planets in the known universe, there IS life on other planets. But maybe we will never come into contact with them. Maybe when we do come into contact with them, it will just be a few surviving colonists long after earth, and the rest of the human race, has been wiped out.

    As far as the Fermi Paradox goes I think it's pretty likely that we just aren't worth visiting. A civilization that would be able to reach us would be so advanced that the production level achievable by the entire human population would be insignificant. It could be useful to study us, though. Or experiment with our genetics. It's kind of funny to imagine that we might just be a stop on a cosmic field trip for some students to gawk at our comparatively primitive civilization.

    • @TheYolo20
      @TheYolo20 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      life probably doesnt exist in our galaxy at least not intelligent life while there maybe many convincing hypothesis about the fermi paradox i think the most realistic is that life is just really rare and intelligent life even more so. Maybe there is also a barrier to technological progress or that societies just stop being as expanding as we are because there isn’t really any reason to be. Another great theory i have heard goes as follows. If we think that intelligent live out there has even the tinniest path resemblence to than they would inevitably build Ai that can produce self replicating nano technology and it would only take one of those to destroy their entire galaxy or life wipe it.

    We assume, for some reason, that aliens would be more technologically advanced than us, but the fact that we haven't been visited yet could indicate that aliens are as advanced as we are (or even less advanced) and haven't achieved interstellar travel yet.
    Who says aliens ARE smarter than us? Who says they're more advanced than we are?
    Maybe they were born as a species one million years ago, or maybe barely 15.000 years ago.

      bowser jr Then they would be from higher dimensions, Not in our realm of existence, Because the probability of None of these advanced intelligent civilisations being caught by our observation is higher if thousands of different beings visited us.

    • @TCBYEAHCUZ
      @TCBYEAHCUZ 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      bowser jr They wouldn't bend light to cloak themselves, because then it would be even easier to see the presence,They would look like the gravitational lensing, Instead I bet the aliens would just find a way to allow their armor to absorb light from behind it and emitt it perfectly towards the viewer, giving an illusion that nothing has been changed to the light, making the unit invisible, We can already do this with todays technology it is just very bulky.
      I understand that thousands upon thousands of UFO's, strange lights and such have been spotted, but look at where we are? No where, We haven't made ANY progress on these sightings, Any legitimate firm, Organisation and government still doesn't really invest or put some fucking effort into ratfying with scientific basis on any of these sightings.
      We're still in the dark and no one wants to fucking do anything about it. Pisses me off.

    • @TCBYEAHCUZ
      @TCBYEAHCUZ 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      bowser jr I think you misunderstood, I didn't say it WAS Gravitational lensing, I just said that it they bended light around their ship it would look like gravitational lensing, Obviously it isn't.
      But yes I agree with you, I'd make more sense to cover up and keep people ignorant.
      There are too many conclusion jumpers who would preach it as the end days.

    Carl Sagan suggested that, due to the immense universe, intelligent beings as civilizations could come and go, at different time periods, perhaps for thousands of years, yet each either becoming extinct before encountering another. He used a Christmas tree with lights, showing that by the time intelligent beings from one 'light' would reach another, it's light would be burnt/out. It would take a great cosmic coincidence that two would meet, but that if they did, it would be two AI robotic units making the encounter.

    • @cmdr.shepard

      It is presumptuous to assume *each and every single* civilization would extinct before they meet. There is no guidebook to lifespan of a planetary civilization. Human civilization have existed for a few thousand years now, the only thing we take example from is our destructive nature. But even us haven't gone extinct yet. And there is great chance for us to exist for millions of years more. Even under the worst case scenario. Sure, we don't know if other intelligent beings will be more or less violent than us, but even if they were just the same as us, they would still have the same great chance. So there is no base for to assume a civilization would only exist for a very brief time period.
      There could be other dangers than self extinction, but there is scientific evidence that natural disasters, whether planetary or from space, can take very, very long time to repeat, enough time to allow a civilization to spread to other planets.
      Just like the PBS Space Time channel host, I reject to believe the Fermi Paradox. There are only a few logical explanations to the reason we haven't met any other civilization. 1- "Intelligent" life is rarer than our thought (we're the only intelligent race we know of) 2- Space travel is harder than our guess and there is no way to work around the speed of light - things like wormholes don't exist.
