I actually wrote about the idea of alien nanorobots in solar system in my UAP and Global Catastrophic Risks. One variant is that alien nanorobots are something like interstellar grey goo or technological remnants of now defunct civilization. You may remember S.Lem “Invinsible” novel which explored this idea.
But what you suggesting here is more similar to Lem’s “Solaris”, which superintelligent ocean becomes interstellar. And the main difficulty here is to explain behavior, not technology: why the hell “ghost rockets”?? Superintelligent civilization could hide itself effectively on microlevel and will be never observed. Why it creates large objects which behave as if they animals similar to dolphins in intelligence?
Thanks for the link! Haven’t encountered the article before. After skimming through it, and reading the nanobots part, I conclude that it is very comprehensive. I don’t think I can add anything on the topic that you haven’t already thought about.
this ML paper indicates that an artificial intelligence could be driven by a single objective—seeking novelty, and it will be sufficient to make it smarter over time (and perhaps even smart than humans).
Maybe UAPs are similar: their prime motivation is to seek novelty, because it’s how they gained intelligence in the first place.
It’s also the reason why they love to interact with humans in ridiculous ways: humans are generating a lot of novelty this way. Moreover, they could be much smarter than humans, and still be doing it (compare: humans love to play with their pets).
Humanity is their addictive TikTok app, and UFO enthusiasts are their funny cats.

Thanks for reading! Btw, there is a new interesting blog on the topic https://entaus.blogspot.com/2022/05/of-matter-of-mind-and-matter-ufos-and.html?m=1
Thanks!
Regarding the ridiculous behavior of UAP:
this ML paper indicates that an artificial intelligence could be driven by a single objective—seeking novelty, and it will be sufficient to make it smarter over time (and perhaps even smart than humans).

Thanks for link. Novelty seeking seems to be a convergent goal: cats also seek novelty and children do so.
