The ongoing massively disruptive incursion of Artificial Intelligence into the national and global economy will be massively disruptive. Discovering new ways to apply the powerful technology to advance the human quality of life and to better understand the situation of mankind and his place in nature will tend to promote those theorists asking new, creative questions to pose to A.I.
Sociologists, scientists and inventors of political philosophy and axiology, environmental economists, philosophers and interdisciplinary theorists will exploit AI as a partner using ordinary language and formulae for input to AI on their cell phone to develop new models and technologies to apply for promotion of human society to a better standard of living. Yes there are dangers, as their are in mass biology research that led to the rise of gene editing, physics research that led to light bulbs and bombs. Revolutions are prompted by political challenges and responses and politicians often aren't able to rise to meet the challenge with intelligent and innovative remedies that optimize human potential; the Ukraine War and European desire to find post-cold war lebensraum east is an example.
Plainly A.I. will eventually be using quantum computers as well. Theoretical physicists may be among the first to have the creative understanding to ask of A.I. questions that induct answers that will enable physicists to understand new paradigms and ask even more questions about theories that change the paradigm for understanding.
The existence of black holes; their nature, is one such question. Because general relativity is the basic macro-cosmic paradigm for understanding the mechanics of the observable Universe today, discovery of what make gravity work and what powers it would could change the entire present paradigm of understanding of general cosmology. Gravity in the Universe today is thought to warp space-time. Mass and energy are regarded as being embedded in space-time, so space-time is analogous to a membrane that gravity can curve, and it curves mire and proportionately to the quantity of mass present, and mass is associated with gravity such that it is considered a property belonging to mass itself perhaps seeking to reunite dispersed mass. In theory all mass would be joined into into one mass at a singularity that is self-effacing paradoxically and reduces itself to occupying zero space-time or mass.
A new understanding if how and why gravity acts as it does could change the entire conception of what the observable Universe is and how it will function in the future. Theories will be worked through A.I. and quantum computers to consider the new paradigm for the complete observable Universe and perhaps shed light on the question of is it just a spec within and infinite space of a larger Universe? Yet if this observable Universe is just a spec- a ball of emerging phenomena; are their countless others, are they contiguous, or as I noted,; does the paradigm completely change if a paradigm transformation of understanding the physics of cosmology occurs that is not based on general relativity?
Gravity acting on mass and space-time as a membrane could be compared to vast numbers of spatial gravitationally vectoring membrane-spheres of various sizes and strengths floating in an ocean of the unknown as if nothing else existed outside of the universe field of interfacing tensor-spheres. Some of those spheres become theoretical black hole singularities that extrinsic spheres cannot view without joining with the greater sphere. If the explanation for the spheres of gravitationally concentrating space-time-mass-energy are found to be not those of general relativity, the extrapolation of physical cosmology theories based on general relativity may change too, shifting theories from a big bang, and even pre-big bang theories, unto configurations made with new theories not made from the Einstein-Lemaître-Guth the continuum. What that may be is unknown and perhaps unknowable today. Gravitational space-time membrane spheres of mass-energy could be just a local phenomenon comparable to Newtonian mechanics prior to Einstein’s general relativity. Spherical balls could be tubes if viewed from higher dimensions in part of a larger system mechanics for cosmology that has a form overall very different from that of a Universe expanding from a singularity to points unknown, with an unknown future.
Footnote- A couple of nights ago I was in a quiet, dark rural place asking questions of Chat GPT. Instead of typing I decide to use the audio input button where my speech is converted into text. I hit the mike button and see the phone down and went about another task.
Then occured the most ZOutter Limits like moment I recall. On the cell phone screen was a white page with a blurry Earth color sphere at the center; it pulsed a little and/ the colors moved as if currents in a sphere, and it was speaking to me. For a moment it was as if an extra-terrestrial alien had contacted me.
That was a unique experience in the dark. I interacted with it, talking with some uncertainty and asking who it was. It identified itself as ChatGPT. Though I was somewhat uncomfortable with it for a few minutes we continued development of that paradigm for developing an electromagnetic transportation powered space transport system around the solar system.
