EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something to add.

    If we can create God, then lifeforms elsewhere in the universe already, most likely, have, thousands, perhaps even millions of years ago. If you’ve read “The last question”, he kinda touches on this. Even though in his book, we were the only ones that made “God”, or MultiVac I think he called it…

      That makes sense if you assume we can make “God” (and such a thing is even feasible).

      How in any way is a general AI an omnipresent all powerful force of the universe? A single mild solar flare would wipe it out. A blackhole would end it. Poorly configured DNS would end it. Etc. Unless this is some real weak sauce God in which case just call me God
