What If Earth Became a Type III Civilization?
This video was made with financial support from the Center for AI Safety.
There are trillions of planets in the Universe, but even with our most powerful telescopes, we’ve never found a single trace of life out there. And no alien civilization's ever found us. It could be we’re just not advanced enough to be noticed. Or we're looking for the wrong things.
So it’s time to upgrade. Make some interstellar noise, build some megastructures and mega-scopes, and find out whether we're actually alone in the Universe. Today, we’re going to speed up Earth’s evolution, and become an intergalactic Type III Civilization on the Kardashev scale. That is, if we don’t go extinct first.
