Sorry about that - this is my first Ars video and I didn't think of it. There's also a chrome transcribe-support app reviewed here, if you want to offload transcribing to an intern: One of my colleagues swears by AI-media though I haven't tried them. If you would like get a transcript done, as some of the other posters have also requested, it could be quicker to get an outside company to do it, instead of paying one of your staff to type it up. The article doesn't even have a summary of Professor Jha's views. I'm deaf & I have no bloody idea what's being said in the video. Why is this idea so common? Is this really what our future looks like? Can we ever actually "convert" ourselves into energy beings? Is such a life form even possible? And if not, where does the idea come from? Advertisement It's a ubiquitous trope-as if "pure energy" is our own mass cultural idea of humankind's far future. Converting themselves into beings of pure energy seems like the ultimate stage in the development of any civilization. It's almost a given in most science fiction that sufficiently advanced civilizations will eventually develop this way. They are also typically portrayed as more powerful, more enlightened, and possessing a deeper understanding of the universe. They’re usually able to flit about the Universe at will and often demonstrate great abilities befitting their advanced, ultra-evolved state. If you've experienced science fiction in any of its many forms, chances are you’ve encountered "energy beings." Unlike the other aliens in sci-fi, they have no ‘physical’ bodies but rather exist as beings of pure energy.
