Is there a limit to our ability to conceptualise things. Is our brain a limiting factor in our understanding things. Are we reaching a mental plateau where the maths and the use of AI to computate things is rapidly reaching a stage were we can not visualise the actual outcome which the tools we use for analysis point to.
Distances and time refer to our 'observable' universe which is limited by the time light takes to bring back information. This time horizon limits us from seeing what's beyond and in effect puts a limit on what we can know. The mathematical computation aided by super cooled computers and using esoteric materials to transmit the computations within the computer and allows us to calculate, for instance the human genome and the aberrations which are the precursor of disease and malfunction within our bodies. But how do we disentangle the mind with its thoughts tide to the result of our environment and other emotional factors which ebb and flow from nano second to nano second.
If the computer predicts something outside our ability to comprehend, does mean it doesn't exist or that it's outside are realm of understanding.
It's a moment in our human evolution when our brains have perhaps at last reached that point where we become what we rather scathingly infer of the ape, that they and we are of limited intelligence.
Perhaps "Artificial Intelligence" will takeover and decipher the indecipherable but as control always lies with the most intelligent will we have seconded our role to machines.
We are already at a stage where the mathematical hypothesis can't be tested and we have to substitute weird anomalies such as multiple or parallel universes to explain the mathematical findings. If our world is but a corner of the actual physical world and we don't have minds that can convey answers because our experience is dimensionally limited, then the prime we set for ourselves, with the importance we place on ourselves, is just an illusion.
