what is the difference of fate(fortune or future) of a universe
for universe consisting of intelligent species(living beings that can think) and for universe null of the intelligent species.

This question is important (i think) because the intelligent species can divert away from the usual track of universe.

More clearly let us consider an example of big bang.

a)The point A big bangs to expand to sphere B, and finally to sphere C. This is if we consider if there are no intelligent species

Now we consider the big bang includes the intelligent species.

b) The point A big bangs to expand to sphere B. The intelligent species play the role to stop further exapansion to C and limits them sphere B.

Look , how the fate of the universe can change with presence or absence of living beings.


In universe there are lot of rocks , gases and clouds, and also the species (like humans) that can feel and think, and perform.
so what is the solution of this problem?

No matter how intelligent we are I don't see us overcoming entropy and the heat death. At the end of the day all our intelligence has given us is better ways of reconfiguring matter and energy to suit are needs, we can't create either or those from nothing.

Don't touch anything. The fate of the universe hangs in the balance.
