Seriously, it would interest me when they enable the creation of something akin to a warp drive.
- First, because it would be a way to test these hypotheses
- Second, because it would dramatically expand humanity's playground, even if it's only in the solar system in the first step.
- Third, because building a Warp drive would be good for the economy. Currently, we have no equivalent to the space race. We have AI, but there are doubts that it will enable more than incremental steps.
- Gooblebrai 1y agoWhat hypothesis would be tested by a warp drive?
