the thread about nothing...

That’s a dope

Unless we have complete and full knowledge of what our governments have hidden, no

Wow, I didn’t think of that possibility..

You honestly think this is the peak of humans?

Well no not currently. I meant there will be one in the future. But we probably thought the same thousands of years ago..

Something like teleportation lol. Don’t think that’ll ever be possible…

Not to sound like a conspiracy nut but it’s easy for someone to make a technological or scientific advancement and the government shuts it down and label it “need to know”. If it gives a military advantage in someway, that info would not be readily available

Random thought. Assuming no new element/matrial enters the Earth, there should be a cap on how advanced we get as a civilization right? Tech wise.

Element 115 is very real but we have no way of harnessing it in a practical capacity. It takes an insane amount of force and collision for the slightest reaction. Simply put, there are several existing elements that we cant’t stabilize long enough to do anything with. The cap on civilization is based upon our lack of understanding. Then there’s the dark anti-gravity matter that we’ve barely scratched the surface of in terms of its capabilities. The biggest obstacle for mankind is Father Time, the brilliant minds can’t live long enough to finish their research, so advancements are at the mercy of the next generation to keep pushing the envelope. I don’t love AI but it solves problems at a much faster rate than the human mind, AI is going to propel accelerate society’s 10x faster than the breakthroughs we’ve seen so over the last 100 years. If I told you in the year 2000 that we’d have self driving cars in 26 years, you wouldn’t even comprehend the idea.

The thing with that though is that even with all the technology society isn’t ready to advance. The best illustration I’ve seen of that was an episode of ‘The Orville’ - one of the crew wanted to basically give replicator technology to a planet - but the issue was that they weren’t ready as a society.

A Star Trek style utopia with no hunger and no poverty is a long way away - even if we invented the tools tomorrow.
