I wouldnt recommend meeting them, they don't care about you.
No surprise there, only pouting.
This place is like a free-range physical experiment for them to keep churning out human hybridized DNA,
Give me space aliens with big booba!
and that yours or anyone elses insights would be of value to them.
Depends on the focus. A neanderthal would be an instant darling for modern anthropologist, for example, despite prospects on the job-market might be rather limited. Sulfur-based micro-organisms from venus, even loser-micro-organisms, would be a sensation for biologists. Alien exo-biologists would be delighted with me, because I got those winning manners.
I have a hard time believing you actually thought about extraterrestrials that would have millions of years of advancement
I did and read a book, and sometimes I think about far-future technology every day. My expectation is that bio is an intermediary step and actually disgusting and primitive. My expectation is that most resources will go into computing in the broadest sense. I also have reason to believe that there is a way to blackmail reality into arbitrary outcomes.
The book is great, but from 1960, so most of the far-out speculation in it is more or less already clearly visible. The topic is independent from space-aliens. If you don't already know it, Isaac Arthur's channel and John Michael Godier are very entertaining, richer and more scientific than most of the stuff I read in the 20th century.
