To me the Vedas in this Modern age seems like ML/AI. Very few will be able to Use it, Study it, Understand it and Create it and most people will know some of the parts. This woll help some people to reach Type 1 and Type 2 civilization and then in Krita yug some will have full control over Type 2 for long time and will leave Our Solar System and then the descending will start, many will start lose knowledge and then same story, again there will be new cycle with new people with new twist... and elsewhere in universe Humanity will continue

Obviously speculation, but interesting and nicely thought out nonetheless.

Nah its mostly gibberish and the few facts in it are cherry-picked. But what would be the point of arguing about it? If someone finds this useful so be it.

I will say that the mainstream view is that the Kaliyuga is 432,000 years long and started in ~3102 BC. And it makes little difference to anything in practice what yuga it is.

This only became an obsession with a certain type of Westernized Hindu in the 19th century in the same vein as (and largely in imitation of) the kinds of Christians around that time who were trying to “scientifically” trying to investigate Noah's flood etc.
