But contrary to what people think, I have nothing against the idea of aliens or even summoning aliens or orbs or any of that stuff in general.

And I'm not saying that all the stuff flying around has to be ours.

Yeah.

I mean, there's very well a possibility in which this was alien technology that we figured out, we reverse engineered, and now we've got our own alien technology.

Or maybe there's both, and how would I even know?

I have no idea.

What I would tell people on the alien front is we are thinking way too small.

When we're thinking about gray aliens, stuff like that, we're not thinking about it the right way at all.

I think we should be thinking about a species that is a million years more advanced than us.

a species that is integrated with AI and become part of AI, or maybe it is an AI, maybe it is a super intelligence, or a species that's just made out of plasma, something completely different than what we would imagine.

I was even telling Ryan, here's a thought experiment.

Ryan, director?

Yeah.

Here's a thought experiment for you.

Which is, what if we have a superpower that seems mundane to us, but to an alien species would be a huge threat?

Like, just take the three-body problem, the TV show, the book that people are familiar with.

The aliens are afraid of us, even though they're super more far advanced than we are, because they know we can evolve super fast.

They know that in the 400 years in which it takes them to get to us, we'll already have surpassed them, even though their technology seems like straight-up magic to us at this point.

You think about that.

What if humans have a superpower and that superpower is evolution?
