hawking

If I had a choice between you and Hawking I'm going to take Hawking.

Look at it this was: The device Stephen Hawking uses would not exist if it required FDA approval.

So if every alien society has a Hawking mindset then no one will discover each other.

It was my understanding that Hawking was concerned about humans creating skynet-style AI ourselves, rather than discovering AI created by an Extra-terrestrial.

There's no way Hawking would predict such a huge natural disaster in the next 1000 years, let alone in the next 100 years with such certainty.

I think Hawking would ultimately like ET's help in the coming war against AI.

Why is Stephen Hawking treated like a tech expert?

I was rather hoping this would be a hawking radiation method, i.e.

Well contrast that with Stephen Hawking and Yuri Milner's $100m initiative to search for alien life[1], and I'd say that we're still pretty optimistic about that.

I'm not trying to be dreary, but I do think Hawking is completely wrong on this point, not to mention its feasibility in the next 100 years.

Didn't Hawking said that actively looking for ET was reckless and dangerous and that any contact with a more advanced civilization will end up like the colonization of America with us being the natives?

“My gut feeling is their goals and incentives are so different from ours, they’re not going to want to contact us.” That’s a welcome divergence from Steven Hawking’s claim that advanced aliens might be nomads, looking to strip resources from whatever planets they can, and that all efforts to contact said aliens may end in our own demise.

Tsoukalos would be the best choice instead of Stephen Hawking, who is against finding ETs.

An unfriendly AI is likely to be as dangerous as an unfriendly Stephen Hawking.

Stephen Hawking: I would like to know a unifed theory of gravity and the other forces.
