"Brief Answers to big questions" was written by Stephen Hawking.
Review: After reading that book I found Stephan Hawking an Atheist despite that he was a great scientist. And he answers some of the interesting questions that everybody wants to know.
Is time travel possible? The author of A Brief History of Time, the book that brought worldwide fame to Professor Hawking, loved venturing into that realm. Einstein’s general theory of relativity allows time travel, he notes. In fact, it cannot be ruled out because of our present understanding of the laws of physics, even though logic contradicts them (for example, the possibility of coming home to kill our parents). Nevertheless, as he explains, travel into the past may be possible by discovering ingenious ways of contorting the fabric of space-time—no small task, physicists would agree. artificial intelligence (AI) Hawking expressed doubt that humans in the distant future will have the capability to contain AI and prevent it from taking off on its own, having acquired an entirely different agenda from ours. At this point, he was serious enough to have opened the Leverhulme Centre for the study of the Future of Intelligence, dedicated to the future of our civilization and our species and working on controlling AI as one of its missions.
Professor Hawking believed that knowing the mind of God is learning and understanding all the laws of nature. His prediction: We will be there by the end of this century. His succinct yet insightful Brief Answers to the Big Questions is a book highly recommended for anyone who has ever contemplated those questions, perhaps giving the reader a point of view never considered or even imagined.
Wanna suggest you all read
