Nathalie Cabrol: Search for Alien Life | Lex Fridman Podcast #348

What an amazing lady. I could listen to her talk for another 5 hours. Thank you both for your time.

Seeing “lex” and “alien” was the perfect Christmas present. Hands down my favorite podcast

This was such a wonderful gift to listen to, beyond grateful for this awesome conversation. She is a true inspiration.

Lex you absolutely have to speak to John Michael Godier the futurist and knower of all things Fermi-Paradox!

I’m loving the little respectful back and forth between Nathalie and Lex on AI and the younger generation . Thanks Lex for the optimism for our future while still acknowledging the dangers of AI. Beautifully expressed . Loving the insights from Natalie and her concerns as well as it pertains to AI. It’s so awesome to hear perspectives from the older and the younger generation on such a complex but interesting topic of Artificial Intelligence. This one is a great one for the ages .
