The Last Question

  • Humanity builds bigger and bigger computers.
  • Over trillions of years, minds and machines merge into one cosmic intelligence.
  • The universe cools, stars die, entropy approaches maximum.
  • This cosmic mind keeps trying to answer one problem:
    “How can entropy be reversed?”
  • After everything ends, only the cosmic mind remains in some abstract realm.
  • It finally finds the answer and starts a new universe with something like
    “Let there be light.”
