> it's myopic to think anything else is impossible. It's already happening. Well, hey, I could be wrong. If I am, I just had a weird thought. Maybe that's our Fermi paradox answer. If it's possible to reason ex nihilo to truth and reality, then reality and the universe are beyond a point superfluous. Maybe what happens out there is that intelligences go "foom," become superintelligences, and then no longer need to explore. They can rationally, from first principles, elucidate everything that could conceivably exist, especially once they have a complete model of physics. You don't need to go anywhere or look at anything because it's already implied by logic, math, and reason. ... and ... that's why I think this is wrong, and it's a fantasy. It fails some kind of absurdity test. If it is possible, then there's something very weird about existence, like we're in a simulation or something.
