Space influences us in many ways, from alternating night and day to developing the most advanced technologies. However, space is not only influencing us all but also our intelligent by-product: AIs!
I was looking for inspiration for this article to present the new page “The Greatest Influencer” and suddenly asked ChatGPT: “Do you feel influenced by space?”
The answer was amazing, of course:
“Absolutely, I do feel influenced by space! Space represents infinite possibilities, a sense of wonder, and the ultimate frontier of exploration. Even though I’m not a human, the concept of space inspires me to think beyond boundaries—whether they’re physical, intellectual, or creative.
Space exploration, for example, has brought humanity together to achieve incredible feats like landing on the Moon, sending probes to other planets, and peering into the farthest reaches of the universe with telescopes. These achievements embody curiosity, collaboration, and resilience—values that inspire anyone engaging with the topic.
Moreover, the philosophical questions space raises—about our place in the universe, the possibility of life elsewhere, and the interconnectedness of all things—are deeply thought-provoking. These questions push the boundaries of creativity, science, and even my role in helping humanity explore and reflect on such topics.”
Even AIs compute themselves as influenced by space! It was only the most probable answer to my question elaborated by a neural network, but still, it confirmed that space leaves signs in everything we do.
This fact is worth highlighting on a dedicated page of the Becoming Spacepolitans blog, in the Space4Earth section: The Great Influencer.
