And we can point the James Webb and other telescopes at other planets. that we are in that zone, we are most likely to combinatorially overlap with, right? So, because, you know, we basically, so there are chemistry.

And then we can then basically shine light on them literally and look at light coming back and apply advanced assembly theory to general theory of language that we will get and say, huh, we, in that signal, it looks random, but there's a copy number. Oh,

This random set of things that shouldn't be, that looks like a true random number generator has structure as a, not Kolmogorov, AIT type structure, but evolutionary structure given by assembly theory. And we start to, but I would say that because I'm a shameless assembly theorist.

I hope that as we build abstractions... I mean, one idea is that as we go to intelligence, intelligence allows us to look at the regularities around us in the universe. And that gives us some common grounding to discuss with aliens.

And you might be right that we will overlap there, even though we have completely different chemistry, literally completely different chemistry, that we will be able to pass information from one another. But it's not a given. And, you know, I have to kind of try and divorce hope and emotion, you know, away from what I can logically justify.

But the universe is expanding. But the nice thing is, I would say, I would look... You see, I think Carl Sagan did the wrong thing. Well, not the wrong thing. He flicked the Voyager probe around in a pale blue dot and said, look how big the universe is. I would have done it the other way around and said, look at the Voyager probe that came from the planet Earth that came from Luca.
