Not alone, but I’m of the opinion that we are very “early” in the lifespan of the universe. There’s a very decent chance we’re among the first to develop to this point or beyond. This by itself could be a possible explanation for the fermi paradox; we can’t see other civilisations yet because they’re roughly at our own level and still lack the abilities to communicate or travel these distances, just like us.
