So this might be why I'm a physicist or why I differ from other people. Because I'm not such a big fan of humanity in some ways. Some ways I am. But the idea that we were everything would be really boring to me. I love the idea that there's so much more out there, that there's a bigger universe and there's lots to discover and that we're not all there is.

Wouldn't it be disappointing if we were all there is?

We have no idea how much there is. We know what we can observe so far. So the idea that there's other stuff out there that we yet have to figure out, it's exciting.

Well, so that's possible.

And that's one of the reasons we suggest, I mean, it's not the reason, but it would be true if there were the type of interactions we suggest. I mean, it would need more complex ones. And we don't know. I will say that the conditions that give rise to life and complexity, they're complex, they're unlikely. So it's not like there's great odds that would happen.

But there's no reason to know that it doesn't happen. It's worth investigating. Are there other forces that exist in the dark matter sector? That's exactly it.

Right, as far as we know, it doesn't have any. It might have it at some low level, but it could have its own forces, just like the dark matter might not experience our light. Maybe it has its light that we don't experience.
