The Last Question
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.”
