Found a bird in the pool that got wet during this heat wave. Intense rare conditions and being saved by something way way bigger than yourself, a man to a little bird is probably like a giant. Using my tablet to take pictures is probably like alien technology compared to the technology of a bird. Humanity like a scared wet bird under intense environmental conditions saved, enslaved, terminated by an Alien Civilization?

I hope greater levels of intelligence and access to space travel would mean they would help us, leap us forward generations. Will we look like a cute bird to ultra intelligent aliens or like bugs?
See movies like Independence day or Predator, Mars attacks, all builds in perceptions of how an alien civilization might act when dealing with humanity. We might be trained to be scared of an ultra intelligent civilization yet they might help us in dramatic ways.
Could we negate or own hubris dealing with intelligent beings that might be far more intelligent than us?
Humanity builds on concepts and best practices, would they be prepared to modify concepts and best practices in an instant even given the best of proof and data? Change is hard, negating or changing current knowledge is not always appreciated, comes with time costs like re-training that is non null.
New better data, better practices are sometimes available yet the pace at which society changes is not always fast. New changes are not always better, thus reluctance and resistance factors into newer better practices. Change is hard even given good data. Change is not always instant even given good data.
We have data about global warming, yet change has lagged. Consider a society that lags important change for the sake of throughput as ideal delivers of Justice? Ideal Justice unlikely has potential to be both defeating depressing and freeing empowering saving time and helping empower better decision making that is not reliant on Justice that is unlikely to deliver, unlikely to deliver in a timely manner. Potential for better ability to factor in Justice will not be ideal to risk management. Go to a risky party if image can be ruined and Justice is unlikely to amplify in a timely manner? Image matters and Public Relations problems are not easily fixed without cost to resources, funds, and time. God ideally protects to does not ideally protects not always a known. What God can be trusted with and what has potential for more problematic hard with a God that obfuscates much of the story, limits resolution in ways that are not always ideal for problem solving. Image lost like a key that falls to the bottom of the Ocean? Not enough time left in life to fix public image is a possible problem.
Resolution greater does not always equal details more emphasized. Greater tech has potential to empower or disempower. To greater power for all people, not just some people, not just people that are out of jails is not a given. A less just system does not always amplify more reduced injustice repetitions over time? The future moves forward does not equal the future always amps better, always amps ideally. Future has potential to mean gains to throughput is not guaranteed to mean gains to throughput. Future tech that is faster has potential to improve life or reduce life. Faster computers equals the people trying to do right move faster, and the people trying to do wrong move faster, and the people trying to maximize profit based upon many times insufficient resolution to move faster. The future should be more robust does not equal the future is always more robust. The future should equal gains to peacemaking and reduced war. The future is not always all war out, not always all peace in.
Peacetime has potential to give false sense of security. War is a thing of the past time to put up feet and relax is a nice thought that has potential to deliver less than sufficiently.
On a different note have this artwork I created a while back
