This is extremely interesting, but couldn't it be that in 10.000 our technology has advanced so much that we are able to "refill" dying stars for example? I mean, look at how much we have achieved in the past 1000 years, exponential technology growth over a timefrime 10x that can be unimaginable now.

These are cool predictions but they need not be true

I've never figured out why people think technological growth would be exponential indefinitely.

on an exponential scale 10000 years is just one step ahead.
