Models of failure in Contact Theory

"After a period of observation, the orbs concluded that human society is clearly stratified. The orbs analyzed the interaction among humans and concluded those the interactions among individuals change at a rate enormously slower than the opinions of each of them. They also concluded that each individual human often chooses between his neighbors and decides which opinion to hold at a given time, according to his own advantage, based on the observation of what happens to his neighbourhood."



"The orbs concluded that human civilization state, at the time of observation, was a nearly decomposable system, that is, it is at least partly built up of social units that are themselves unstable due to inequality and social stratification."

"We have no reasons to believe their destruction was caused by a single-event catastrophe. There were no natural disasters such as dramatic volcanic eruptions, no global earthquakes, no major disease epidemics. No cosmic events, no solar flares, no gamma bursts. Nothing was recorded by the probes. Replaying of the simulation only confirms a total sudden collapse in Sol-3 in an extremely short timeframe. What if they were terminated by an I-civilization?"

"Any good classifier knows that in the process of classification, information about variety is lost while information about similarities is gained. The utility of a classification must be judged (at least partially) by whether the quantity and quality of information gained outweighs that lost, and this depends largely on the purposes and needs of the analyst."



"but the analysis showed that, during the most devastating earthquake in California, dated DENIED 2023, the entire system collapsed due to its being under heavy social stress. The hierarchically managed networks of storage and redistribution of goods and produce vanished during the first three minutes of the earthquake. New social structures emerged to protect the privilege of a limited few with preferential access to the scant resources."

"all cities were devastated after the DENIED event, and the environment turned highly toxic for them; orbs were sent in order to observe whether a new human civilization could emerge after the global collapse, and to gather data that could allow DENIED to simulate when and how such emergence could be possible."

"The designoids generated from Cassini Diskus worlds simulation programs are often repetitive. Specifically, we found four out of five of our benchmarks reuse the same designoid structure multiple times, only altering the symbol sets of the state transition elements. It might be we do not fully understand the use of Cassini Diskus yet, or it might finally be the case all D-civilizations populated by human-type designoids are fatally flawed from the very beginning"



"What did really destroy Sol-3 civilization? Was it merely economic factors? A chance concatenation of fatal events? A global social dysfunction? A catastrophe that turned insurmountable for them? Was Sol-3 collapse due to an insufficient response to circumstances? Was just that vital resources on which human civilization depended were depleted? Or was it because of intruders, contact with another complex civilization, or simply due to mystical factors? What happened in Sol-3 for such a total and extremely quick collapse?"
