Nothing. There won't be anyone around. Whatever the Great Filter is, it'll have gotten us by then. Do civilizations annihilate themselves in nuclear war? Do they use bioweapons they can't control? Do they wreck their ecosystems? Do that transcend into matrioshka brains? Whatever it is, it's something.
