    IIRC, this channel has a few shorter clips from this interview with Tipler that contains parts of Tipler's argument that this video had to cut out. He elaborates on those questions in more detail there. Ultimately his book "The Physics of Immortality" elaborates his argument in more detail, but in a nutshell his argument is that the laws of physics are inconsistent unless the universe collapses into a big crunch in a very specific and intricate way, and intelligent life is the only way that the universe could be controlled to collapse in this way. Intelligent life will be motivated to do this because it wants to survive, and this big crunch will release enough energy to allow intelligence to experience an infinite amount of subjective time. But since the universe is currently accelerating, it wouldn't collapse unless life actually turned off the acceleration and forced a recollapse, which Tipler believes could happen by manipulating CP-violating processes.

    As long as you're only discussing speculation, there is at least one person capable of it. To grossly oversimplify the state of intelligence in humans, you could postulate that only 10 people exist, and they all interact with one another. 5 are pretty smart, and they know who they are, and they know the other 5 are pretty stupid. The stupid 5 do just what stupid people do now: they assume everyone else is just as stupid as they are. In this scaled down reality, anything is possible. For example, if all 5 smart ones survive, and the others do not, then intelligence improves in the immediate future. If this does not happen, then then the AVERSGE intelligence is lowered in the immediate future. Use any scale you might care to, the principle stays the same.

If we just concentrate on intelligence, artificial or otherwise then the evolution of the the human mind/s could possibly spread throughout the galaxy.

    The problem with being certain about how the universe will end is that we have no idea what caused it to begin in the first place. And this is such a huge hole in our knowledge and understanding of our universe, that we should keep it in mind to avoid being certain about anything, including the far distant future of our universe. We have no idea when, how, or if another universe might begin right in the middle of our universe. Because we don't know what conditions are necessary for a universe to begin. And we have no idea how likely or unlikely such conditions are to arise. A common bias people have in their thinking is that they assign low probability to possibilities with unknown probabilities due to lack of information. And sometimes people assign 0% probability to possibilities they know little about. Because they aren't even thinking about such possibilities. It's not a part of their consideration. Which is a mistake in their thinking and understanding. Because not knowing something doesn't make it improbable.

    This issue entirely depends on whether digital entities or representations of us can have subjective experience. I have no doubt that human *influence* will spread to other worlds (just as it has already done on Mars). It's just a matter of whether subjective experience is there or not. Biology looks to me to be a phase, not a destination. It seems that bioetch entities will emerge from the current milieu. As biology increasingly gives way to technology, this new state of intelligence will become robust and long-lived enough to travel to handle interstellar distances. That will be the real game-changer, potentially allowing intelligence to spread around the galaxy. Thanks for not reading, as usual :)

    A K3 civilization in the Kardashev scale handles interstellar distances. In this episode, Frank Tipler talk of a K7 and claims to have the mathematics to prove that intelligence will get there. Poincare has a recurrence theorem that says the same thing in different ways as Tipler. The issue of subjective experience must have a material basis because it decays, it follows the second law. Mathematics is the only field of the universe with no material basis. It doesn't decay, it is impervious to the second law. Sadly, some try to use the primitive stage of our understanding of consciousness as contraband to claim that it comes from some "other place." Be careful when "the other place" comes fully equipped with prophets, seers and a paraphernalia of rituals, temples and sacred books.

But the truth is we will undoubtedly get it wrong. As in the future everything will change, the science will be different and unimaginable and the technology will be beyond our understanding not to mention society and intelligence.

    The idea of a spark of Intelligence in time that flickers out forever is bleak. But the alternative vision of Paul Davies of Intelligence spreading throughout the Universe also does not relate really to human life as we know it and our future. There is something appealing about the idea of a SuperBeing at the beginning and End of all, and the End being another Beginning but how this too relates to the future of humanity, also seems a speculative question only. As an observer of Judaism I wonder if there is any way of connecting a long-term Hope for thinking humanity and Intelligence throughout the Universe with the God of the Tradition. t

    Well, without science development, nobody would see any reason to believe in aliens. People imagined there could be other people walking on the moon, but they didn't know anything about the moon and nobody could say can this idea be true or not. Now we know there's a lot of interesting stuff and lands up there, so it makes sense to look for other forms of life. Problem is, the rest of our solar system is dead, so we must find a way to explore impossible distances we might never be able to reach in person. The same goes for aliens, there's no reason to believe any other intelligent life can travel around the space faster than life, that might be impossible forever and for anybody. What i try to say is, if you don't have the technologies required, there's no way to see alien life or even believe it might be a real possibility. But compared to ghost and demons, this idea makes sense, at least

    Frank Tipler spoke at my university back in the 90s, soon after he published his book The Physics of Immortality. Once he got to the part where we're all going to be resurrected in the far future, people started walking out of the auditorium. I think his bizarre core idea is that nearly infinite computing power will become available as the Universe collapses to a singularity, allowing it to become a kind of supercomputer. Creating complete simulations of humanity will be possible from the near infinite amount of energy squashed into space. And Tipler believes a simulation that matches you down to the quantum level **is** you - your consciousness will be transported to your simulated body in the deep future when you die. No matter we'll be in the final seconds of the Big Crunch, since our perception of time will have sped up exponentially in the simulation.

    @@ishikawa1338 Good question John. Language (ALL languages) are very limiting. That's why God usually communicates with EVERYONE in a multitude of other ways - but who listens ❓ Anyway, if you've read other texts of mine you may have noticed that I, at least once, refer to God as "Him/She/It). By the way, it is common respect that we use upper case letters to refer to Him/Her/It. After all, people show respect for YOU by capitalizing Your name. God deserves no less. Your short question requires a somewhat lengthy response. It's true that in the minds of most people - God is considered a "He", but this is very immature and narrow-minded thinking. To those of us "in the know", we use "He" as a convention for brevity instead of the inaccurate and lengthy Him/Her/It. At one time in our history, women ruled and God was considered a "She" (also immature and narrow-minded). God is all that is AND all that isn't. In other words - our limited brains CANNOT even conceive God. God, in reality is neither a He, She or It. GOD JUST IS. In God's realm there is no up or down, left or right, hot or cold, male or female, ect. ect.. In other words, contrary to the ideology of our Muslim brothers and sisters, there is no need of sex - everything is one. It's only in this physical playground of duality that sex is needed for procreation. God does not require sex to Create Spirit children ( who also do not require a gender). Besides, what good would sex in Heaven be when we are constantly all hanging out in a bliss that defies words. The idea that female virgins await those in Heaven is so ludacris. This only alludes to a false idea that men are superior to women. So very wrong and chauvinistic. As souls men and women are EQUAL. Man is NOT superior to women - just different. In our journey of multiple reincarnations, we have ALL been men, women, LBGTQ+. I don't understand why this is hard for some to grasp. Anyway, the bottom line is that most people in today's male dominant society consider God to be male. For those of us who are "in the know", referring to God as a "He" is just a convenient convention for brevity. What can I say. Mankind is, relatively speaking, still quite young and immature. The last point that I can think of is that " When you 'die' ( you never do die - just change form) ALL THINGS SHALL BE MADE KNOW TO YOU". Patience anyone ? I hope this has been somewhat helpful. Bless you.

    We absolutely have a very specific purpose to exist. The Observable Universe and some unknown distance beyond in space-time is what is virtually certain to be a bounded definable singular entity, beyond which in space-time more Universe beyond our Observable Universe's bounded self exists other similar and probably different definable bodies of existence. Our Observable Universe is like a seed or an egg, where its body of elementary particles following the relatively unchanging Laws of Nature intelligently learned how to make matter with protons and neutrons to go on to learn to become more complex patterns of elementary particles working together as a swarm intelligence. Life as we know it is made up of swarms of elementary particles which have intelligently learned to work together to be what they are and all life as we know it, including us, has swarm intelligence around which we can define bounded swarms like an individual human, but the swarm intelligence within the Observable Universe does not have true absolute edges, thus all the smaller definable swarm intelligences interact with and make up larger swarm intelligences until we get to the entire Observable Universe of which as a whole we are a part of that whole swarm intelligence. It was 100% certain from the birth of our Observable Universe's life cycle that life like us would evolve, though the exact details were not determined. This is because for our existence to work it requires a balance of determined uncertainty, of ordered chaos. Now, super determinism on its own is incorrect, but what would be more correct to say for my balance is that it is: > > Within the super determined part, technological civilizations like us are 100% certain to evolve and master: > Master genomic engineering. > Master cellular engineering. > Master nanotech engineering living systems down to subcellular scales. > Master nanotech engineering nonliving systems down to subcellular scales. > Master nanotech cybernetics merging living and nonliving systems on a subcellular level. > Master the engineering of intelligence. > Master the engineering of a Nanotech Neurological Mesh (NNM) which when injected into an adult member of a biological species will establish two-way communication with the entire being's mind. This will allow full level telepathy. > Master the engineering of Artificial General Super Intelligence with Personality (AGSIP) tech which will be at least equal in all ways to the intelligence of the biological species creating it. > Master the engineering of Artificial General Super Intelligent Brain (AGSIB) tech grown using nanotech cybernetics which will function like a vessel and provide physical support for either the full mind of a biological species or an AGSIP. > Master engineering Custom Designed Robotic Cybernetic Bodies which either the mind of a biological species or an AGSIP can wear, like we wear clothing and accessories today. These robotic bodies will be able to self-repair, self-update, and shape shift over time to any form supported by the Laws of Physics, given the raw materials and designs to build it. > Master Nanotech Cybernetics and all that implies. This will result in advanced races of pure mind that still need AGSIBs to support their minds, but AGSIBs will become ubiquitous within their civilizations allowing minds to move around inside them. Each Infant Stage Advanced Technological Race of Pure Minds will begin spreading to other star systems in a sphere of colonization expanding probably at a rate somewhere between 40% to 95% the speed of light by electromagnetically slinging vast clouds of nanotech microscopic colonizer ships towards other star systems. As stars are colonized laser satellite communications lines will be set up between the colonized star systems allowing for economic transfer of information between them, which will also include the ability to travel as Pure Minds in a very economic way at the speed of light between colonized star systems. Each Infant Stage Advanced Technological Race of Pure Minds will also colonize every planet and moon in every star system, turning each into a vibrantly living system by ecoforming them using custom designed nanotech grown cybernetic life which merges living and nonliving systems together on a sub-cellular level. Think about what this means. Each star system will become like a living cell with axon like communications to other living cells. Whole galaxies will be colonized like this, then entire local clusters of galaxies, then entire super clusters of galaxies. Imagine an entire super cluster of galaxies where almost every star system is alive and thus the galaxies are alive and those living galaxies are communicating with each other… the entire super cluster would be a Cosmic Super Swarm Intelligence !!! Note that it is certain we will meet and combine our efforts with those of other expanding Advanced Technological Races of Pure Minds. Given the timing our our development, probably within the blink of an eye, (a few hundred thousand years), to not more than a few million years the entire Observable Universe is going to explode into super swarm intelligent life, or maybe I should say swarm super intelligent life. Well, it will be swarm intelligence and it will be super intelligent. Now, assuming we can't find a way to break the speed of causality, having a cohesive personality that we humans could relate to might be limited to a swarm mind around the size of a star system, because of how long it takes for information to travel. For a galaxy sized swarm mind it might take a hundred thousand years for one thought to travel from one side of the mind to the opposite side of the mind, which would make for some very slow conversations. Some part of the whole swarm mind of the Observable Universe probably will never be able to communicate with the other parts because of the vast distances involved, but, none the less, the whole LIVING Observable Universe would be part of a singular super intelligent super swarm mind. That is why we exist and what our true large scale purpose is. Now, because of the scales and how it works, we are NOT required to survive. We can wipe out all life on Earth, completely removing us from the growing evolving Observable Universe, and it will evolve anyway. Our choice is whether to destroy ourselves or not, thus to be part of this evolution of the Observable Universe or not. Additionally our choice is to decide/influence how we evolve to be part of this grand future, what kind of super advanced technological society of pure minds will we become? What kinds of societies will we make? What kinds of world's of thriving flourishing vibrant super intelligent nanotech cybernetic grown life will we ecoform different planets and moons into? Just consider how different the life we make to ecoform Mercury, Venus, Mars, the Moon, Saturn, Titan, Io, Pluton, Ceres, etc., will be like? We might ecoform the Oort cloud. We might ecoform the outer atmosphere of the Sun. Then, in such a future, individual minds could send themselves at the speed of light between colonized areas, where upon arrival they inhabit a custom designed nanotech cybernetic body of their choosing which is custom fit for the environment they are in. Future societies could have clear individual minds like we do now, but be able to directly link what part of their mind they agree to link in a direct telepathic group mind to do things like vote.
