In this interview on Neon Galactic, national security analyst Matthew Pines describes how our experience of the alien — from abductions and downloads to beings and the theater of the absurd — may well be its repeated attempts to bridge semantic gaps. Will AGI arrive in time to help us decode these messages? Could it even do so? Also, Pines goes all in with what believes may be an ontological framework for all of creation. Great discussion.
