Cosmological Natural Selection
hypothesis that black hole decay causes a new universe (with slightly different fundamental constants) to form, such that universes most suited to black hole formation are the most likely due to natural selection

Videos Mentioning Cosmological Natural Selection

Jeffrey Shainline: Neuromorphic Computing and Optoelectronic Intelligence | Lex Fridman Podcast #225
Lex Fridman
Lee Smolin's idea that the universe evolves through a process where black holes in one universe become big bangs in offspring universes, with slight mutations in physical parameters, leading to universes optimized for factors like star formation.

Lee Smolin: Quantum Gravity and Einstein's Unfinished Revolution | Lex Fridman Podcast #79
Lex Fridman
Smolin's hypothesis suggesting that universes evolve and select parameters through a process analogous to natural selection, potentially explaining fine-tuning in physics.
