I enjoy the terrifying prospect of the dark forest theory myself

The great filter is simply “time” itself. The vastness of time means two civilisations will never meet simultaneously

Philosophical pessimism in intelligent beings, self interested anti-natalism, and the capacity to destroy one’s own species through technology before exploring space.

What if the great filter is to learn the benefits of those silica gel packets, and we need to eat them to achieve cognitive superiority?

Time is the great filter. Space is too far apart - the odds that we are all advanced at the same space time is low. Think about fruit flies.

Or maybe we don’t have the senses necessary to detect more evolved life. Like does an ant realize their are humans in their space?

Scariest thought is, that we are it. That we are the only life in the entire universe. Statistically unlikely, but still scary and lonely.

Maybe it’s just timing. Maybe there is life out there but they are still in their Stone Age or they went extinct before we advanced.

Those filters might be irrelevant. Just because we need oxygen, does not mean all other life forms do too.

there is one that i have heard from Croatian astronomer; that if life come to be advance, they try to hide because life tend to kill other to exist.

Or maybe intelligent aliens are looking at earth right now, but they don’t see much because the light took millions of years to reach them.

The great filter might be the distance between stars/galaxies

I think it's cooperation like can a society not tear itself apart?

Wouldn’t that filter just be the sustanability “filter”. As technology advances unsustainably there will be inevitable collapse.

So the Great Filter is a hypothetical hypothetical?

how would we have found life already when none of our communications have even gotten to the closest star yet?

We can barley see in our own backyard much less what's out there any further. We only think we know what signs to look for

The reason is life is rare and requires very specific conditions.

The filter is our inability to perceive more than 4 dimensions of space-time. Aliens dont have to b out there to b 'out there'. They cud b right here

Tim Harvey 🧟 :
this is hard to explain but I have this theory that the different planets are home to different phenomenons, say for example you didn't know what life was prior, you'd probably have a rough time comprehending it, things as grandiose as life probably exist on other planets

Look at the world today. We are stuck in that last filter and heading to oblivion. Capitalism, tribalism, speciesism. We’re on the way out

Ironically, it means that it’s better to find no evidence of “primitive” life on other planets, bc it would imply the filter is still ahead of us

Taking into account things like, capitalism and inefficient performance towards climate change or technology; we’re heading to it.
