Stephen Hawking

En anglais : "Success in creating AI would be the biggest event in human history,’ he said. ‘Unfortunately, it might also be the last, unless we learn how to avoid the risks."

En anglais : "So Einstein was wrong when he said, "God does not play dice." Consideration of black holes suggests, not only that God does play dice, but that he sometimes confuses us by throwing them where they can't be seen."

En anglais : "“I believe that disabled people should concentrate on things that their handicap doesn't prevent them from doing and not regret those they can't do."

En anglais : "So long as the universe had a beginning, we could suppose it had a creator. But if the universe is really completely self-contained, having no boundary or edge, it would have neither beginning nor end: it would simply be. What place, then, for a creator?"

En anglais : "I have noticed that even those who assert that everything is predestined and that we can change nothing about it still look both ways before they cross the street."

"Space and time fizzle out, so it can’t be said that there is a time before the big bang — just as you can’t say that there is something north of the North Pole. (I’m talking "north," not "up.")"

" En suivant la règle qu’elle s’est fixé de construire un modèle mathématique, la science s’avère incapable d’expliquer pourquoi il devrait exister un Univers conforme à ce mode. Pourquoi l’Univers se donne-t-il tant de mal pour exister ? La théorie unifiée serait-elle dotée d’une telle force, qu’elle se mettrait au monde d’elle-même ? ou bien a-t-elle besoin d’un créateur , et, dans ce cas, joue-t-il un rôle dans l’Univers ? Et qui l’a créé, lui ? Jusqu’à présent, la plupart des scientifiques se sont trop attaché à décrire le comment de l’Univers pour se préoccuper du pourquoi. Par ailleurs, ceux dont le métier est de s’interroger sur le pourquoi, les philosophes, n’ont pas été capables de suivre les avancées théoriques de la science. "

En anglais : "Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at.
It matters that you don't just give up."

En anglais : "I have noticed that even those who assert that everything is predestined and that we can change nothing about it still look both ways before they cross the street."
