What makes you think Lisa's tits are real?

Sure. I use AI sometimes, that's what it's there for, to do things for us. Someday everyone will have a personal AI "companion" that goes everywhere with them and people listen to because it's smarter than a human.

Someday we will be using our personal AI companion to even help us in social situations. Like, "AI companion, what should I say to Lisa so she'll go on a date with me?"

I always put my own spin, imagination, and originality on it though. The vast majority of that is original, so don't get it twisted, Mr. Beaumont.

It's definitely a conundrum. The kicker is that space is so freaking vast. I mean 14 billion years old and 93 billion light years across for the visible universe is huge, and scientists believe the universe may already be infinite, infinite, WOW


Then as advanced as we think we are our signal has only travelled about 100 light years from Earth. That's like an eye dropper's worth of water in the vastness of the ocean. Really that doesn't even compare at all to the vastness of space.

Another thing is that, when you really think about it, so many things had to be right for "intelligent" life to exist in this planet that it might be extremely rare in the universe. I mean, if we didn't have our unusually large moon (for the size of our planet) it would have been much more difficult for advanced life forms to evolve. The Moon keeps our rotation on an even keel and thus gives us predictable and always at the same time of year seasons. If we were just wobbling around without our big moon, the lack of stable and predictable seasons would make growing large quantities of crops much more difficult. There are a whole host of other things that had to happen to give complex lifeforms a chance to get a footing. On the other hand, pretty much as soon as life could appear on this planet (the planet had cooled down enough and had liquid water on the surface) it did come into being.

So, a lot depends upon the answer to the Drake equation that is meant to decipher how common intelligent life is out there. The problem is, we don't have nearly enough information to answer that question/solve the drake equation with any reasonableness that our answer is in fact correct, so we're back to square one.

My hunch is, and that's all it is, is a hunch, is that intelligent life evolving on a planet is fairly uncommon. Not to mention that calm white-yellow G-type stars make up only about 5 to 7 percent of the stars in the Milky Way Galaxy. Most other types of stars are too unstable and/or emit too much radiation even for a magnetic field to block effectively. So there ya go.

You still have to brush your teeth 2 or 3 times a day and set the trash out Wednesday night.
