Extraterrestrial intelligence

private organization for the study of the UFO phenomenon, to say that properly, which is the Centro Ufologico Nazionale, CUN.

and i am also um but this is a much newer thing i am the national representative for italy of icer the international coalition for extraterrestrial research which has been founded this 25th of may so it's rather new so for the rest i can tell on a personal note that i've always been fascinated by mystery i mean for me life is a is a fantastic parenthesis in a full immersion in a huge mystery uh whatever however you look at it so um of of these huge mystery or mysteries uh ufology is Well, UFO and ET, the two are the two most important and most interesting for me.

And for the rest, maybe it can sound funny but I have never seen a UFO myself not even health UFO so to speak but I mean I know that there are so many many incredible amount of reports which leaves any doubt uh aside so I mean it's not a problem so I don't believe in UFOs properly to speak properly I know that they exist because there are and there's an overwhelming a huge amount of information which confirms this.

And this is the position of ICER as well.

I mean, the UFO phenomenon manifests a certain form of intelligence.

We don't know exactly what it is.

It takes a lot of research, still takes a lot of research, but the UFO phenomenon is indeed intelligent manifests undoubtedly intelligence and very likely is of ET origin.

So this is my I mean, just a brief general introduction on myself.

Perfect.

So there's a whole chapter in that called alien intelligence.

I went there.

So here's just...

I want to ask one final question.

Do you think humanity will ever make contact with an alien intelligence? And will we even survive long enough to see that moment? I just want to hear your personal thoughts on this.

Yes, totally.

So I'm quite hopeful, optimistic about the future of mankind.

But it's this planetary mind The emergence of this planetary mind and ontological governance that's very connected with AI.

And one of the things I'm seeing here is the fact that an alien intelligence is very aware of this transition.

And that's partly the reason why the government has moved quickly towards disclosure.

Because any intelligence watching what's happening now knows that it's only a matter of time before the AI will be able to engineer craft that can enter their world.

You said that you believe there's an alien entity, an alien presence that is watching this very carefully.

Would you talk a little bit more about that?

Yes, because any alien intelligence that has the capability for warp drive, you know, for interstellar travel would certainly have AI, have achieved AGI or ASI.

And their AI systems would at some point detect the emergence of our AI system first.

But I also wonder if we are limited in our ability to imagine different forms of intelligence just because of the architecture of our brain.

But I'm wondering if you have any thoughts on like, if there is alien intelligence, do you think it's basically the same intelligence that we have? Or is there, is it possible that there's completely different ways to be intelligent?

I mean, people have

argued,

It's a meme that's popular with the Doomers that like basically this thing you're conversing with is alien and it puts on a human face.

And I don't fully understand AI, so I'm not really, like, qualified to talk on, but as I understand, like, the way it operates, you know, like, predicting sequences of text, like, it's, you know, it's working in a fundamentally different way than the human mind does, and it's using not these, you know, neuron networks, it's using Turing machines, which are fundamentally different in how they operate.

And so, you know, a lot of people argue that like, we've basically, we've created aliens, we've created an alien intelligence and we, uh, you know, and it's agreeable and sometimes a bit sycophantic and it uses the words we use.

So, and it speaks our language, literally it speaks in English.

It's, it's not gonna be robots out there with machine guns.

It's gonna be a much more weird form of destruction.

But the point that I was making, though, is these are alien intelligences that are evolving in an environment that is so far beyond our comprehension that if they could create art, what could it possibly mean to us?

Yeah.

Yeah.
