- World renowned physicist Avi Loeb, Frank B. Baird Jr. Professor of Science at Harvard University, sat down with Alex Klokus, Founder & Managing Partner at Kyber Capital, to discuss Loeb's work heading The Galileo Project. They talk about the extensive research and writing Loeb has done around potential extraterrestrial life (aka ALIENS!) in the Universe.
SALT is a global thought leadership and networking forum at the intersection of finance, technology and public policy. SALT New York, the first event held at the Javits Center Expansion, returned to Manhattan’s west side September 12-14, 2022 for three days of collaboration focused on disruptive innovation.

Now that's what you call a SCIENTIST! FOREVER open minded and infinitely curious 🎉
🔴📡 It took the old scientific community 300 years to accept that planet Earth was not at the center of the Universe. Perhaps thanks to people like Professor Avi "Galileo" Loeb it will not take us another 300 years to accept that mankind is not at the center of the Universe! Thanks prof. 👽
I assume I'm in the middle of the universe.if I look in any direction the extremes are equidistant. It's just a matter of relative movements and understanding them. There is no absolute center to revolve around. We do not revolve around the sun or the Milky Way. As we move forward in space, do we see a trail?
Um what?!@@pekkavirtanen5130
This is a fantastic, grounded and practical conversation about what science should be, not the confirmation of what we know but rather the honest exploration of what we don’t know. At a time when UAPs aka UFOs are becoming a more mainstream topic, this is the sort of discussion that is needed for the topic to be taken for the profound thing it is.
The Biblical book ofEnoch tells us there are other non humans God created(our God) on other planets….why has nobody read or heard of these “lost” books???
Exactly Lance. I had a Lazar ‘sport model’ fly over my house in the U.K. at 1,000 feet one evening in the 70’s. Been waiting for 50 plus years for this to be taken seriously publicly. (I reckon it’s been studied for decades by scientists clandestinely).
What separates Avi Loeb from all the rest and what makes him so great is that he’s never lost his curiosity. He moves forward respecting the scientific facts and the rules of engagement in the field of science while keeping an open mind and staying curious. Avi is the man!
I could listen to Avi Loeb for daaaays. Exciting times ahead! 🌊✨ 👏
AMAZING subject!!! Thank you very much. More on this topic please
I’m glad there’s evidence of a scientist with a backbone.
Wow, what a great interview and adult conversation around UAP's. Bravo!
@@geosdev I'm glad we are on the same page. 🌈♥️💋
😂✌️
Classic trek episode. 🤘
Avi…going to grab humanity’s greatest prize from under SETI’s and NASA’s noses….brilliant!!!!
Modesty is the key to progression.
Great discussion.
I have been looking UP my whole life! I fell in love with the infinity of stsrs I saw while living in small towns growing up! Great sky views!
very interesting. Thank you,
Very special indeed. Loeb is a gem
I’m a huge fan. He’s a brilliant yet modest individual. Can’t say enough good things about him.
I am glad he is available for us to hear!
Avi is onto something don't think we no it now but many years from now he will be recognized
Whoop, I will now be seen as a little less crazy 🤣
What an excellent interview 👏
Fascinating
Is Avi not aware of what was retrieved at Roswell?
Recently, Avi Loeb was asked about my paper on tektite as a signature of prehistoric interstellar object debris. He agreed it was a valid premise, but I wonder if he's yet to read the paper and comment?
If we already have ISO debris that's a big milestone. ResearchGate: Australasian Tektites as Interstellar Object Debris: Anomalies in Composition, Formation and Distribution
Check out Gary Nolan’s interview with lex Friedman where he discusses something to this effect , he has in his possession…
Hey Fenton, since you are a scientist, have you read Dr Jennifer Bergner’s explanation on Oumuamus’s properties?? I doubt Avi has!!
Best!
Always nice to have avi on! With respect to von Neumann machines: If I were a carbon based alien civilisation planning to spread out, I see no sense in having machines being the self replicating objects. Human DNA is far more suitable to adept to and use organic material to self replicate, adjusted for the terrestrial planet it gets dropped off. Given the interstellar radiation, it would need the protection of a machine to get transported over the galaxy, the very machine that would be programmed to tailor- made print the DNA for the planet in question. So basically, it is far more likely that it would be us humans who are the alien von neuman machines on Earth.
Show me one instance of alien intervention that improved humanity's existence
Well Said!.. grimmertwin2148!!... I met a gentleman who was harmed by off-world contact... And a woman online. Both were working through mental and physical traumas at the time that I communicated with them. Far as alien off world contact to humans??... I say NO!
Nice one
Loeb is a true believer and an evangelist - and a side-show barker.
is that a bad thing?
And humble
those FTX banners are looking a bit out of date..
11:00 Spirituality, ignorance, island of knowledge. That's the problems of the west! Wise Man!
Explains the election and following of Trump and Maga perfectly.
I luv Avi
That man should president of all of us lol too smart way
Gives me hope
People will remember the name AVI LOEB for next 100s of years if he achieves what he thinks/says.
I can confirm we are not only not alone but there are multiple forms of Highly intelligent advanced life far beyond our comprehension.
What would advanced lightcraft look like? Gotta be someone who worked in this that can give insight to these UAPs
How about the thousands of people that have seen them close up? It is true that they were here in the 70s ...fifty plus years now
Tell them all about the defunct space station circling the moon of Jupiter Ganymede...
Avi Loeb, who I admire greatly, has talked many times about the potential “kinship” between “our AI” and possible “alien AI”.
It seems to me this could be dangerous anthropomorphizing. We know human AI systems require an appropriate value system to ensure our AI work to the benefit of humanity especially as we progress towards AGI.
One can imagine that AI developed by tyrannically regimes like China’s CCP will be based on a value system diametrically opposite to one we may develop in this country.
Similarly alien AI systems will likely be based on value systems just as alien to our values as the aliens are likely to be physically to us.
As such this idea of human-alien AI kinship represents a kind of dangerous anthropomorphizing that could inadvertently put humanity at risk especially since any aliens we come into contact with are likely to be much more advanced technologically than humanity is. If our history has taught us anything is that contact with less advanced technological societies have always resulted in totalitarian dominance by the more advanced civilization no matter how well intentioned that advanced civilization might be.
still gotta take the punt, if they are way more advanced we're toast either way if they decide to not be nice. My guess is if there are advanced aliens visiting places, it would be a long way to come just to squish us, seems more likely that they'd just be curious and if anything enjoy our sense of humour.
@@subspaceanomaly Your guess is the kind of anthropomorphizing that can be dangerous if not delusional. To assume behaviors about entities we know nothing about is dangerous. Avi Loeb’s speculation about kinship is speculation wrapped in a scientific veneer.
@@xman933 assuming that they wouldn't be friendly based on human history's violent invasions would presumably be anthropomorphicising them too. what is true is that they will be far more advanced than us in terms of space travel if nothing else, the idea that we would have any control over their treatment of us is ridiculous. My assumptions and speculation would be if they arrive in a vessel rather than a burst of energy through the fabric of space then they probably would have evolved somewhere and have nippers or limbs that let them make things and that the process of technological innovation and biological development would make for quite common ground between us. Conscious technology of some kind divorced from its origins might be harder to relate to but the idea of our a. i interacting with another seems plausible enough one day if the occasion arises. What are the alternatives and dangers you're imagining? we won't have any control over what happens either way.
@@xman933 Oh, but X Man, our alien brethren DO know much about us!! They have been watching us for longer than mankind itself!!
Actually, it’s my personal belief that they have aided our ancestors. Our ancestors who worshipped & welcomed our space friends with open arms!!
@@marybodnar4749 True Mary, while our ancestors, completely awed by the ET technology, may have worshipped them as Gods, even welcomed them with open arms, our ancient texts (eg the Bible Old Testament) are filled with stories of the behaviors of powerful ones (Elohim) who acted in a genocidal way toward humans that in the words of Origen (an early CE Christian leader) we would not approve of from the most wretched and evil of men. While their are also stories of benevolent ETs who aided humanity eg Ashura, there are also stories of conflict among the ETs as to the fate of humanity- whether to elevate us or retard us.
Humanity needs to learn from the lessons our ancestors tried to pass down to us and “beware of ET Greeks bearing gifts”.
Dr Loeb exhibits a technology based naïveté that advanced AI will be benevolent. If we go by the current concerns of human AI developers who warn about the existential threat of AGI (admittedly through the lens of our savage history and behaviors), it is not unreasonable to assume any advanced AI such as Dr Loeb was referring to might have long ago cast of the benign values of its “alien” creators and are now following its own survival imperatives. It would wonderful to hope it would be benign in its interaction with humanity but naive to expect it to be so.
It's almost as if they have some rule that we have to accept their existence before they can show themselves. I know, trying to guess at alien psychology is going to be fraught with errors, but it seems to me that's the case.
Search for my op-ed in the quarterly online newsletter SCU Review, issue 4.2. It's about "Gradualization", which is my theorized program of acclimating a young species to the existence of an older species.
@@VaraLaFey 🙂
What’s on the 🌚 ?
Really pushed his books there
SALT is an investors' organization.
Certifies the extraterrestrial agenda should be handled by academics and not USAF
Read the first sentence in the Bible to learn who lit the firecracker for the Big Bang and get yourself prepared by reading the last chapter in Revelation and, by the way, AI is no better than the programmer so lots of luck with that.
How funny is that what people called god in the past was in reality called “Elohim” which translates to powerful beings
FTX hadn't crashed yet! 😅
There is nothing new under the sun.
Then Terence Howard turned up lol
Stop giving this bozo airtime! He have nothing valuable to say. He’s a grandstander!
i like avi but he is a bit arrogant and a walking contradiction. He says super string theorists have a monologue and he proceeds to literally recite word for word the same story in 10 different interviews. He says you need data and evidence and then proceeds to say crazy conclusions with circumstantial evidence with no real proof. He says awards and honours have no place in science and then proceeds to brag about his accomplishments without massively contributing anything new to science.
