Synopsis

Social physics is a field that combines the academic disciplines of physics and sociology. Attempting a "theory of everything" from the social physics perspective provides us with the advantage of utilizing the knowledge already gained from the field of physics on certain matters, such as the properties of the forces of nature, while the field of sociology provides us with great insights into the role and actions of human behavior.

This book uses social physics to address major questions of human life. These questions include: what is the fate of humanity and, specifically, what role will artificial intelligence (AI) play? Is there an afterlife and if yes, what are the possible scenarios of an afterlife? What is the fate of the planet Earth, and what is the fate of our universe?
