I read somewhere, scifi, or maybe a discussion about aliens, of a crystal based life form which had a single thought every thousand years. I wish I could remember where. In that context what is artificial about AI.



Ha, interesting, thanks. I thought it was a in a book, but maybe I read about the game.


just checked with ChatGPT and they are not here yet

"Aliens do not live inside AI, including this model or any other AI developed by OpenAI or other organizations. The idea that aliens could be inside or operating AI is a popular trope in science fiction, but it's not based in reality.

AI, like this model, operates based on algorithms and data. It doesn't have consciousness, emotions, or any form of life – extraterrestrial or otherwise.

It's important to differentiate between science fiction and factual information, especially when discussing advanced technologies and concepts that might be unfamiliar or easily misunderstood."


I think advanced alien life exists in different dimensions we can't access yet. The 3D plane is boring for them, so they live on higher dimensions, unseen.
