Extraterrestres e intelligentia artificial

Extraterrestials and Artificial Intelligence

Un astronomo qui travalia in un centro de recercas
con le scopo de trovar vita foras del Terra
diceva que le communitate que cerca extraterrestres
deberea pagar plus grande attention
a “machinas pensante”.

An astronomer who works at a research center
with the goal of finding life beyond Earth
said the community that looks for aliens
should pay more attention
to “thinking machines”.

Pro le astronomo Seth Shostak, qui travalia
in le organisation Search for Extraterrestrial
Intelligence (SETI in anglese), in California,
in vice de essayar a trovar signales biologic
de vita alienigene, le scientistas deberea cercar
indicios de intelligentia artificial.

For the astronomer Seth Shostak, who works
at the organization Search for Extraterrestrial
Intelligence (SETI) in California,
instead of searching for biological signs
of alien life, scientists should look
for signs of artificial intelligence.

Alicun scientistas de SETI crede que in altere planetas, le vita pote haber se disveloppate sequente patronos chemic e biologic completamente differente de illos que se trova in le Terra.

Some scientists from SETI believe that on other planets, life may have developed according to chemical and biological patterns that are quite different from those found on Earth.

Nonobstante, pro altere recercatores, alicun leges de biochemia esserea universal, e le extraterrestres haberea un cyclo de vita simile al humano, con nascimento, procreation, e morte.
Pro iste gente, il anque haberea evolution de species inter le extraterrstres, exactemente como occurre con le vita sur le Terra.

However, for other researchers some laws of chemistry would be universal, and the aliens would have a life cycle similar to the human one, with birth, procreation and death.
For these people, there would also be evolution of species among the aliens in the same way there is with life on Earth.

Ma pro le astronomo Seth Shostak, in vice de cercar tracias biologic de vita extraterrestre, le scientistas deberea concentrar lor effortios in le cerca pro technologias alienigene. Shostak defendeva le idea in un articulo publicate in le magazin “Acta Astronautica”.

But for the astronomer Seth Shostak, instead of searching for biological traces of extraterrestrial life, scientists should concentrate their efforts on the search for alien technologies. Shostak defended the idea in an article published in the journal “Acta Astronautica.”

“Si vos examina e scalas de tempore in le disveloppamento de technologias, a un determinate puncto on inventa le radio e postea on sta a transmitter”, diceva Shostak. “E il ha sempre le possibilitate que le radiation electromagnetic que porta ille signales pote esser detegite. Ma circa cento annos post inventar le radio, pro exemplo, vos tunc inventa machinas pensante. Nos probabilemente faceremos illo in iste seculo.”

“If you examine the time scales in the development of technologies, at a given point radio is invented and soon afterward broadcasts are being transmitted,” said Shostak. “And there is always the possibility that the electromagnetic radiation that carries these broadcast signals could be detected. But about a hundred years after inventing radio, for example, you then invent thinking machines. We will probably do so in this century.”

Pro John Elliott, recercator del Leeds Metropolitan University in le Regno Unite, le articulo de Shostak seque un linea de pensamento que ha devenite commun inter le recercatores interessate in le detection de intelligentia extraterrestre. font-family:

For John Elliott, a researcher at Leeds Metropolitan University in the United Kingdom, Shostak’s article follows a line of thought that has become common among researchers interested in detecting alien intelligence.

“Post un cerca pro signales de civilisationes alienigene pro 50 annos”, diceva Elliott,
“io crede que le forma como nostre technologia evolveva es probabilemente un bon indicator de como le civilisationes possibile in altere partes del universo disvelopparea lor proprie technologia”.

“After searching for signs of extraterrestrial civilizations for fifty years”, said Elliott,
“I believe that the way our technology has evolved is probably a good indicator of how possible civilizations in other parts of the universe would develop their own technology.”

Tanto Elliott como Shostak se trova de accordo que trovar machinas pensante pote esser plus difficile que encontrar tracias biologic de intelligentia extraterrestre, ma illes es convencite que iste altere possibilitate debe esser investigate.

Both Elliott and Shostak agree that finding thinking machines may be more difficult than finding biological traces of extraterrestrial intelligence, but they are convinced that this other possibility should be investigated.

Shostak crede que le intelligentia artificial haberea un tendentia a vader a locos con multe materia e energia, le sol cosas de potential interesse al extraterrestres del universo.

Shostak believes that artificial intelligence would have a tendency to go to places with a lot of matter and energy, the only things of potential interest to extraterrestrials in the universe.

Debite a iste consideration, SETI debe initiar un programma pro examinar le centro del galaxias o del areas circumferente stellas juvene e multo calide.

Because of this consideration, SETI should start a program to examine the center of galaxies or the areas around young and very hot stars.

“Io crede que nos poterea dedicar al minus un percentage de nostre tempore a programmas nove que forsan non esserea le plus attractive in terminos biologic, ma ubi forsan alicun machinas pensante pote esser presente”, diceva Shostak.

“I think we could dedicate at least a percentage of our time on new programs that may not be the most attractive in biological terms, but where perhaps some thinking machines could be present,” Shostak said.
