As humanity continues its journey forward into the era of artificial intelligence, many leading futurists are looking ahead to what the following decades may hold for us. Some scientists are also questioning what the implications of the current progress with machine intelligence might be in terms of understanding mysteries like unidentified anomalous phenomena. Could AI help us solve the UAP mystery, or might some part of the phenomenon itself be related to AI, representing a kind of "UAP Singularity" hinted at by our own current technological progression?

This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we explore how recent advancements with AI relate to the UAP question, including ideas such as whether alien life we may encounter would necessarily be biological, and how the concept of technological singularity could potentially give rise to superintelligences, time travel, and other futuristic concepts that could be related to the UAP mystery. 

Have you had a UFO/UAP sighting? Please consider reporting your sighting to the UAP Sightings Reporting System, a public resource for information about sightings of aerial phenomena.
