Now, going back to the singularities again, I think you remove one, you remove nitrogen fixation, half the world population starves.

That's a big number, biological nitrogen fixation.

If we solely dependent on artificial generation of nitrogen, that's the number, half the population of the world.

So these are, you know, big numbers and our sustenance rely on these innovations, the oxygen we breathe, the food we eat, right?

Everything depends on these things.

Now, going back to the singularities, I do believe and I want to believe that there's more out there about our past that we simply cannot track.

I mean, you can think of it as similar to resurrecting an ancient language, right?

Egyptian language.

How do we do this?

We are lucky because we found Rosetta Stone.

We could cross-compare some notes and we can infer an ancient language and suddenly everything made sense and culturally we understand.

So whatever we can recover, we attribute the entire world history to that language.

It's the same thing as what we do when it comes to biology.

Whatever we recover, we can attribute the past to that.

And I think that's overwhelming to think about, but also extremely motivational and inspirational.

That we may be completely wrong about our own past in terms of life and its history.

And this is extremely important that we understand where we came from.

I mean, don't you want to know your ancestors?

You do, right?

Everybody, right?
