Many parts of the evolution tree might be wrong. (Theory itself is right but the DNA has uncovered the new details in the history of species)

Probosci's monkeys and toucans have one interesting detail on their face. 


The main question in evolution is why some animals have "useless" details in their body?  What made natural selection favor the big nose of the proboscis monkey? We can understand that the toucan's beak helps the toucan hunt because its beak looks like a banana. But what is the benefit of the big nose of the proboscis monkey? When we think about natural selection. The thing that makes nature favor a certain thing. 

Is it useful and helps to fill nutrients if there are not enough vegetables. Toucans are omnivore birds. In that case, Toucan will transfer to eat bid eggs and lizards.  The colorful beak of the toucan makes it a good hunter but that bird eats mostly fruits. And the thing is that a colorful beak is attractive because it brings food like lizards. But the nose of the proboscis monkeys seems to have no similar use. So the reason why that monkey has that nose remains a mystery. 


We should turn to using DNA test for making evolution trees. 


When we are talking about the Darwinian model that certain details in the shape of the animals would highlight because something makes things like a big nose more attractive than other noses. So the big nose of the proboscis monkey could be the result of the natural selection that benefits the big nose. 

The thing that formed that special detail of that monkey is unknown. Many animals are looking like each other but they are genetically very far away from each other. Some researchers are saying that we should start to use DNA tests in all evolution models and forget the phenotypes or external details. Two animals that are grown in similar areas might have similar details. But they are genetically far away from each other. 

When we are thinking about the game theory and the species we must realize that all species and individuals are maximizing their benefits. But why non of the species must not come too dominating? The fact is that too dominating a species will be destroyed because it eats its food. And that thing causes hunger. 

But when we are thinking about the game theory we must realize that evolution is a network. Sometimes some researchers introduced the theory that somewhere in the universe could be planets where is only one species. That kind of species would be extremely sensitive. 

And those species would not have any kind of immune defense. And they cannot protect themselves against outcoming enemies. If there are only one species on the planet one virus can destroy entire lifeforms. Multiple species or biodiversity guarantees that one virus cannot destroy all biological organisms from that planet.

Those organisms could be primitive algae or some other bacteria-level species. Higher organisms like animals require vegetables to eat. The mono-organism ecosystems require organisms that can turn the soil minerals straight into sugars. So only the arc bacteria can form that kind of ecosystem. 

The biodiversity guarantees that the species must not turn to cannibalism. And if conditions are suddenly changing at least some of the species will remain after extinction. But the fact is that the multiple species and competition between species caused. That natural selection started to favor intelligence. Normally, a large number of descendants are enough to guarantee that species remain alive.

But when the environment changes very fast the intelligent individuals would stay alive because intelligent individuals with the ability to think abstract turns overwhelming. Abstract thinking allows us to find tools that make it possible to dig food below the snow. Abstract thinking is also making it possible to connect things like warm when two sticks are rubbed against each other and fire. 

Even the most intelligent species require something to eat. That means the only thing that can form the mono-species ecosystems are vegetables or rather saying primitive algae. Higher vegetables require bacteria that are pre-handling the hummus to nutrients. Animals in the form as we know them require vegetables or some other animals for nutrients.

The LK-99 could be a fundamental advance even if it cannot reach superconductivity in 400K.

The next step in superconducting research is that LK-99 was not superconducting at room temperature. Or was it? The thing is that there is needed more research about that material. And even if it couldn't reach superconductivity in 400K that doesn't mean that material is not fundamental. And if LK-99 can maintain its superconductivity in 400K that means a fundamental breakthrough in superconducting technology.  The LK-99 can be hype or it can be the real thing. The thing is, anyway, that high-voltage cables and our electric networks are not turning superconducting before next summer. But if we can change the electric network to superconducting by using some reasonable material. That thing can be the next step in the environment. Superconductors decrease the need to produce electricity. But today cooling systems that need lots of energy are the thing that turn superconductors that need low temperatures non-practical for everyday use.  When the project begins there is lots of ent

Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.

 Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.  Black holes and gravitational waves: is black hole's singularity at so high energy level that energy travels in one direction in the form of a gravitational wave.  We normally say that black holes do not send radiation. And we are wrong. Black holes send gravitational waves. Gravitational waves are wave movement or radiation. And that means the black holes are bright gravitational objects.  If we can use water to illustrate the gravitational interaction we can say that gravitational waves push the surface tension out from the gravitational center. Then the other quantum fields push particles or objects into a black hole. The gravitational waves push energy out from the objects. And then the energy or quantum fields behind that object push them into the gravitational center.  The elementary particles are quantum fields or whisk-looking structures. If the gravitational wave is

The CEO of Open AI, Sam Altman said that AI development requires a similar organization as IAEA.

We know that there are many risks in AI development. And there must be something that puts people realize that these kinds of things are not jokes. The problem is how to take control of the AI development. If we think about international contracts regarding AI development. We must realize that there is a possibility that the contract that should limit AI development turns into another version of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. That treaty didn't ever deny the escalation of nuclear weapons. And there is a big possibility that the AI-limitation contracts follow the route of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.  The biggest problem with AI development is the new platforms that can run every complicated and effective code. That means the quantum computer-based neural networks can turn themselves more intelligent than humans. The AI has the ultimate ability to learn new things. And if it runs on the quantum-hybrid system that switches its state between binary and quantum states,
