There's type one, type two and type three civilizations.
And I remember who was the one who formulated this.
It might have been Sagan.
Jamie, pull it up so I don't fuck this up.
But it's essentially our here it is.
Type 1 civilization, known as a planetary civilization, defined by our Kardashev scale as the one that's harnessed and controls all available energy on its planet.
This includes utilizing all forms of energy from sources like solar, wind, geothermal, and potentially even harnessing nuclear fusion.
A type one civilization is also characterized by a global technologically advanced society with a high degree of interconnectedness and the ability to manage planetary scale resources and weather.
So we're on the way to that.
And AI in best case scenario helps us achieve that.
We're probably a lot closer to that than we think.
Type 2 civilization is stellar, meaning we populate other planets.
Type 3 is galactic.
We populate the cosmos and we explore the cosmos.
We're on our way to that.
If we used to live in caves and now we fly in hypersonic jets, this is what's coming.
And it's whether or not we fuck it up along the way.
We should probably end on that.
