Stephen Wolfram Q&A, Can Sci-Fi be Real: Episode 1

Stephen Wolfram answers audience questions about science fiction concepts as part of an unscripted livestream series. Questions include: Could our pets become intelligent enough to take over the world? - What would faster-than-light travel look like (visually)? - How could we make a force field? - Does your physics model allow me to build a warp drive? - Are there any practical 'exploits' that you think may be possible as a result of your model? - Do you think an organism living through its whole evolution in 3D space can survive entering a higher dimensional area? - How can we use dark matter to accelerate the expansion of the universe and/or stretch space like inside the TARDIS? - Is simulated consciousness the logical endpoint for humanity as a whole? - Would it be possible for an intelligent species to create the conditions of a new universe?
