๐ค Today, I want to discuss a fascinating question: Who created the Engineers? If Engineers created us, then who created them? This leads to a cycle of creation that is hard to explain.
๐ There are two theories about the creation of Engineers:
๐งช The first theory suggests that Engineers evolved from the black goo (or pathogen) from Alien. This ancient form of AI contains nanoparticles capable of evolutionary computing. The black goo, also known as the accelerant, could produce simple organisms that evolved into complex beings like Engineers.
โ๏ธ Engineers worshipped the pathogen, conducting experiments to create new life forms, resulting in humans, xenomorphs, and others. However, their attempts to play God led to their destruction.
๐ฝ The second theory posits that Xenomorphs created Engineers. This contradicts the idea that advanced civilizations always create others. Instead, it suggests that civilizations can degrade.
๐ According to this theory, Engineers did not create humans. The xenomorph mural in Prometheus indicates that Engineers worshipped the xenomorphs, viewing them as divine. Xenomorphs, having merged technology with biology, created Engineers to help them survive.
โ ๏ธ Xenomorphs became dependent on technology, leading to their civilization's decay. They created the black goo to preserve their DNA and spread it across the galaxy, which explains the Engineers' plans to contaminate Earth.
๐ง If this theory is true, it raises questions about the intelligence of Xenomorphs. Their lack of societal structure could lead to lower intelligence levels, similar to isolated humans.
โก Alien movies warn about the dangers of technological abuse and dependence, suggesting that it can lead to extinction. This theme is prevalent throughout the series.
