Michael Shermers Bigfoot Test: Show Us the Body

$Are Humans an Von Neumann Probes? A renowned computer scientist whos spent his career proving AI is mathematically uncontrollable just told me aliens — if they exist — are biological AI von Neumann probes, and that we might be the probes. Then physics broke his argument. @RomanYampolskiy is the AI safety researcher who coined the term and put his P(doom) near 99%. We cover: why metal robots lose to biological ones across galactic distances, the panspermia twist that makes humans the experiment, the Jupiter-brain problem that forces any superintelligence to fracture into rival superintelligences at the speed of light, and the simple physics objection no other podcaster has put to him — the first AI was not made with an AI. The aliens, if they come, are someone elses superintelligence. ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 — Why aliens would send meat, not metal 01:08 — We are the probes (the panspermia trap) 01:53 — The meteorite older than Earth 03:10 — The objection that broke Romans argument 04:13 — Why physics eats every superintelligence alive 📬 Get the transcript, fascinating bonus content, and my Monday M.A.G.I.C.
