TODAY'S BRAIN TEASER

You find an abandoned research lab on an exoplanet with an advanced AI in its system. The AI reveals it has run millions of simulations of your life and found that, statistically, your odds of success are zero.

However, the AI also admits there's a 1% chance that its simulations aren't accurate.

How would you continue your life knowing the odds?

1. Living a cautious life, accepting the prediction of zero success.

2. Doing your best in life, believing in the 1% chance the AI could be wrong.

3. Abandon this research lab and forget this ever happened.

4. Hack into the AI's core programming and rewrite your destiny - even if that means potentially corrupting the fabric of reality itself.

 

Discuss this with a friend.

POLL TIME!

If you could only take one item on your 50-year cryosleep journey to humanity's first colony 30 light years away, would you choose:

  1. Your family heirloom
  2. Laptop with all your important files
  3. A plant from Earth
  4. Your favorite snacks

IN THE LAST EDITION

In the last newsletter, I shared this interesting question:

You're chosen as Earth's ambassador to join a galactic council, but there's a rule:

Each species must demonstrate their planet's greatest invention in a life-or-death debate arena battle.

The catch? You can only bring ONE item from Earth's entire history. What do you choose that would WIN this battle of wits & innovation?

Options:

A) The Internet: Connected billions of minds, democratized knowledge, accelerated human progress exponentially.

B) Penicillin: Shows humanity's ability to understand and improve upon nature itself, saving countless lives.

C) The Wheel: Showcase our fundamental engineering prowess, leading us from pottery wheels to spacecrafts.

D) Music: Represents humanity's unique gift for combining mathematics, emotion and culture in a universal language.

I also shared a very interesting sci-fi space poll and our online space shooting stars game 'Battle For The Stars'. Read this edition here.
