An especially fascinating conversation on the channel -- Cabrol sees tech/AI as a "tool" and Fridman sees it as part of ourselves: the question of who/what will in the future find more complex answers about the nature of life centers on determinism in the philosophy of technology. She seems to expect our future to be "human" in the sense we now understand it. Cabrol is extremely smart in a practical, scientific way; it's funny to see Fridman push her into speculative thinking out of her comfort zone. He loves to do this to scientists!

This interview is fascinating, one of my favorites so far in the series. My personal title is 'Co-evolution of alien life and life on earth', because this to me is the big insight. And all based on facts, such as the intake of 'elements of life' through rocks and asteroids from space. Nathalie in my mind (and her mind) goes way beyond the old question of whether or not we are 'alone' in the universe. She instead looks at the fabric of life over time and the possibilities of connectedness. A great scientific and spiritual endeavor.

What an interesting discussion! Thanks Nathalie & Lex. I had a real, true visitation by an otherworldly being. I wasn't sleepy, dreaming, or sleep paralysis, etc. I'm not psychotic, schizophrenic or anything like that. I was never into aliens before this happened. I'm highly intelligent and not confused or anything like that. This happened in the middle of the afternoon while I was wide awake in my living room. I would love to discuss what happened. One minute I was just living my life sitting on my couch, then something just appeared (as if a portal opened or something like that), I couldn't see it - I felt it - it felt "winged" or as if energy was swirling, it communicated telepathically with a very kind and loving feeling that I feel was meant to prep me, I couldn't move but was not scared, for lack of a better way to say it - it took over my emotions - there was no fear, only a deep overwhelming sense of love, tears were streaming out of my eyes, then it tilted my head down and, for lack of a better phrase, downloaded something in my mind. I know this sounds totally wack and pretty unbelievable, but I want to work with scientists and show you what I can do now after this visitation. I promised I'm telling the truth and will voluntarily take a lie detector test to prove it. Lex, please contact me or check your Facebook. I sent you a message from my personal account. My name is Molly. I'm an energy worker and a strong psychic Heyoka Empath who has been through an intense Spiritual Awakening.

My view on a decentralized internet is that us humans are now confronted with an evolutionary requirement to grow ; to listen without collapsing into bias. In other words, I think life is requiring us to adapt a more scientific method of learning & building our contexts & not giving our power away to fact checkers. The internet in all its decentralized chaos is in fact the last unfettered public resource for information.

I support your views Lex. That is why I listen to you and because you interview the most interesting people, including Nathalie Cabrol. She said: "If we are alone, that means the universe is a statistical absurdity" Spot-On. Regarding Aliens, Nathalie Cabrol said: "I don't want to believe. I want to know." Also Spot-On. Another reason I watch your interviews is that you are humble and you understand people-dynamics. You complement the interview process, and don't booby-trap it with your ego, like other interviewers often do. What I find amusing is that S.E.T.I. is looking for signs of life 'Out-There' when there is evidence that Aliens are already here and they have been here throughout recorded history. Viz: 1561 celestial phenomenon over Nuremberg. There is so much testimony and evidence about the presence of Aliens on Earth already. Viz: The Disclosure Project managed by Dr. Steven Greer A few other more well known evidence for the Alien presence on Earth are: -The verified sightings of, 'Tic-Tac' shaped craft interacting with jets from the Aircraft carrier Nimitz off the West and East coast of America and in the middle-east and performing aerial manoeuvres at speeds unattainable by presently known Government aircraft. -Evidence given by Bob Lazar, who was employed at a facility called S4, which was close by to Area51, in the Nevada desert. He worked to reverse-engineer captured Alien craft for the US Government. -Philip J. Corso's Book 'The Day After Roswell' -The Kecksburg UFO incident, December 1965 at Kecksburg, Pennsylvania, United States. -The Westall High School Incident. On Wednesday, 6 April 1966, students and a teacher from Westall High School, now Westall Secondary College, in Melbourne Victoria, (Australia), reported seeing a flying object, described as a grey (or silvery-green) saucer-shaped craft with a slight purple hue and about twice the size of a family car. The teacher was bullied into keeping silent about the incident. -The Ariel School Incident. On 16 September 1994, there was a UFO sighting witnessed by 62 children outside a school in Ruwa, Zimbabwe. The sighting was researched by Harvard University Professor of Psychiatry, John Mack and others. -The Dulce Alien Base: Under Archuleta Mesa on the Colorado-New Mexico border near the town of Dulce, New Mexico it was documented by Philip Schneider a Government employee who held a level 1 security clearance at the time, that he encountered an Alien Colony there. A fire-fight ensued, and he was badly injured. Many others were killed. -The Underwater Alien Base described by ex-Nimitz radar operator near the Island of Guadeloupe. -The files of MUFON Other refreshingly unconventional ongoing research in the public domain and still using the scientific method include two ongoing documentaries, namely 'Beyond Skinwalker Ranch' and 'The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch' . They are 2 separate, yet connected, television series that have both documented evidence of the presence of unexplainable phenomena and 'High-Strangeness' both below and above the earth around the Uintah Basin, Utah and beyond. There are so many other examples of the presence of sometimes seen and other times unseen phenomena, that point to the presence of Aliens on or nearby to Earth. Even the manned moon missions have recorded transmissions that indicated that the astronaughts saw things that they could not explain, but more specifically that indicate there is an Alien presence on the moon. If Aliens are here, why don't they make contact more often and dispel the myths or cement the legends? There is a lot of evidence from Alien abductions and close contact with Aliens and their crafts, that point to the possibility that we cannot live in their environment. Viz: The Varginha Incident Our bodies may not be able to stand the amount of radiation that is emitted by their ships or that accompanies their presence. Also, the bacteria or viruses that may tend to live symbiotically with Aliens, may decimate Humans. What about their craft? The other supposition that comes from the many different types of UFO craft seen by observers in recent years and throughout history, are that there are many types of Aliens living on or beneath Earth, in our skies and on the moon and they fly different kinds of vehicles. Why have so many people been silenced by being threatened or killed after disclosing their first-hand experience with Aliens and their craft? Maybe they were on to some significant information and evidence of Alien existence on Earth. When will the penny drop, that there is an Elephant in the room that has been frantically pointing out the craft sitting just outside the window...lol Do we need to wait for AI to tell us that Aliens are already here and have been here throughout recorded history ? How many leaps in technology have been sourced from reverse engineered crashed Alien craft? (see Philip J. Corso's Book 'The Day After Roswell' ) Who is most qualified to speak about the Alien question? The following people still living, would be a good start, but there are many more that I have left out, who also have important stories and first hand sighting accounts to tell: *Jacques Vallée *Dr. Steven M. Greer *George Knapp *Bob Lazar *Linda Moulton Howe *George Noory *Travis S. Taylor *Erik Bard *Andrew Bustamante *Brandon Fugal *Paul Beban *Col.John B. Alexander *Erich von Däniken *Giorgio A. Tsoukalos *Billy Meier *Nick Pope *Rabbi Ariel Bar Tzadok Many of these people have stories that would 'knock-your-sox-off' which includes evidence that would stand up to scientific scrutiny. I get the impression that you are 'itchin' to talk about this topic and about others like, "Did We REALLY evolve from a common ancestor of the great apes?" My advice is, 'let your hair down on these topics' and go for it. Including the topic of AI and where it will take us, the question about whether Aliens are already here and why, is one of the most important topics for Humanity to understand. Once that is understood, that may even solve the question of 'Where did we come from?' ...lol I really enjoyed the life-lessons recounted by Nathalie Cabrol. Really illuminating and refreshing !! Love Your Work Lex. Cheers.
