Researchers have proposed an unconventional explanation for the absence of any signals from extraterrestrial civilizations, known as the 'Fermi Paradox'.
Instead of assuming the rarity of life or its early extinction, a recent study suggests what is called the 'Rooted Monotony Theory', which posits that extraterrestrial beings may actually exist, but feel indifferent towards us, considering our civilization primitive or uninteresting.
Scientists believe that the limitations of our current technologies in detecting cosmic waves make this silence natural, as the chance of capturing a fleeting signal from millions of light-years away is almost nonexistent.
With the advancement of artificial intelligence tools and astronomical analysis, the landscape may change in the future — and we might discover that the universe is teeming with life, but it simply does not notice us yet.
