Origin of life from space goo?
Nonsense.
Popular Mechanics has the scoop:
Why Superintelligent Machines Are Probably the Dominant Lifeforms in the Universe
It’s a robot’s universe. We’re just living in it.
…
University of Connecticut philosophy professor Susan Schneider certainly thinks so. In her new paper “Alien Minds,” she proposes that by the time civilizations are able to communicate by radio, they’re a few short steps away from developing artificial intelligence. One they reached that level of advancement, they may have opted to upgrade their biology to something that’s a biomechanical hybrid or something entirely synthetic. There could be a whole mess of Borg out there, in other words. More.
Possibly, the superintelligent robots that dominate the universe (mess of Borg) work with goo. Most robots prefer to work neat.
