✧ Enrico Fermi ✧
Enrico Fermi (29 September 1901 – 28 November 1954) was an Italian-American physicist who was awarded the 1938 Nobel Prize in Physics. He created the world's first nuclear reactor, Chicago Pile-1, and is one of 16 scientists who have elements named after them. One of the few physicists to excel in both theoretical and experimental work, he made significant contrib...

“A physicist is just an atom’s way of looking at itself”*…
Encouraged by successes in understanding black holes, theoretical physicists are applying what they’ve learned to whole universes. As Matt von Hippel explains, what they’re finding has them questioning fundamental assumptions about how physics ought to be done…
Tinkering at their desks with the mathematics of quantum space and time, physicists have discovered a puzzling conundrum. The arcane rules of quantum theory and gravity let them imagine many different kinds of universes in precise detail, enabling powerful thought experiments that in recent years have addressed long-standing mysteries swirling around black holes.
But when a group of researchers examined a universe intriguingly like our own in 2019, they found a paradox: The theoretical universe seemed to admit only a single possible state. It appeared so simple that its contents could be described without conveying even a single bit of data, not even a choice of a zero or a one. This result clashed with the fact that this type of universe should be capable of hosting black holes, stars, planets — and people. Yet all those rich details were nowhere to be seen.
“We look around, and certainly the world seems more complex than that,” said Rob Myers, a theoretical physicist at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Canada, who has not been directly involved in this research.
Physicists have good reason to trust the calculation, which builds on fundamental physical ideas. The math implies a universe with only one state; our universe is clearly not like that. Now a team of theorists has floated a possible answer. The paradoxical result occurred when physicists sought an objective description of the state of an entire universe. But a description like that might not be possible, even in principle. It implicitly assumes a universe that exists without an observer to observe it. And perhaps without observers, the complexity of the universe loses its meaning…
[von Hippel unpacks the scientific thinking that led to this conundrum. He concludes with an account of recent work by Ying Zhao that hints at a resolution…]
… Quantum mechanics requires a distinction between an observer — such as the scientist carrying out an experiment — and the system they observe. The system tends to be something small and quantum, like an atom. The observer is big and far away, and thus well described by classical physics… Perhaps an observer could do the same to these closed, impossibly simple-seeming universes?
In 2024, Zhao moved to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where she began to work on the problem of how to put an observer into a closed universe. She and two colleagues —Daniel Harlow and Mykhaylo Usatyuk — thought of the observer as introducing a new kind of boundary: not the edge of the universe, but the boundary of the observer themself. When you consider a classical observer inside a closed universe, all the complexity of the world returns, Zhao and her collaborators showed.
The MIT team’s paper came out at the beginning of 2025, around the same time that another group came forward with a similar idea. Others chimed in to point out connections to earlier work.
At this stage, everyone involved emphasizes that they don’t know the full solution. The paradox itself may be a misunderstanding, one that evaporates with a new argument. But so far, adding an observer to the closed universe and trying to account for their presence may be the safest path.
“Am I really confident to say that it’s right, it’s the thing that solves the problem? I cannot say that. We try our best,” Zhao said…

As we keep an eye out, we might send cosmological birthday greetings to Enrico Fermi; he was born on this date in 1901. A physicist and Nobel Laureate (1938) for his discovery of nuclear reactions brought about by slow neutrons, he is best remembered for (literally) presiding over the birth of the Atomic Age. Fermi was perhaps especially remarkable as the last “double-threat” in his field: a genius at creating both important theories and elegant experiments. As observed before (and illustrated above :), the division of labor between theorists and experimentalists has since been pretty complete.
The novelist and historian of science C. P. Snow wrote that “if Fermi had been born a few years earlier, one could well imagine him discovering Rutherford’s atomic nucleus, and then developing Bohr’s theory of the hydrogen atom. If this sounds like hyperbole, anything about Fermi is likely to sound like hyperbole.”

What if the actual Fermi bottleneck is that the expanding civilizations foolishly build lots of satellites and cause themselves a Kessler effect and loose access to the space? That's why they don't send any probes and their signals are too weak.

Given a recent USA headline about how the new crop of incoming freshmen college students can't even read well enough to read a complete sentence, I had a sudden burst of inspiration. I believe I have solved a long-standing scientific problem.
It's the Fermi paradox: given how we think intelligent life evolved from sterile chemicals on a primordial Earth, and that there are billions of planets capable of the same sort of process, even if a tiny proportion of those potential sources did go on to bring forth intelligent life, there should be many - thousands, maybe millions - that *did* give rise to intelligent life.
The paradox is, given all these intelligent species out there, why have we heard from precisely zero of them?
There are lots of theories as to why this is. The most pessimistic ones tend to say that intelligent life inevitably does something to eliminate itself, (geologically) soon after becoming intelligent, so they aren't around long enough for them to send messages, or they do so for such a tiny window of time that it doesn't overlap with *our* tiny window. Causes: nuclear war, #environmental #catastrophe, etc.
I now believe that it's simpler: a society of intelligent life eventually invents #LLMs / "AI", and then deskills itself so rapidly in a race to the bottom of the effort-skill curve that they no longer exist, or at least not at a level to be capable of sending messages to us.
We're doing it now.
