Honestly I’m pretty interested in some of the simulation/matrix theories I’ve heard, even as someone who doesn’t really believe them. I’m just gonna go off a classic, Rene Descartes, and say that even though we can’t really prove we’re real other than put own consciousness, I would think it’s nearly impossible for our consciousness to manifest everything on its own. I mean think about it, your family, your idols, people you hate, and complicated science jargon that you’d never quite understand. Even if this is all a simulation, it’d have to come from some place. To make a false reality, a great majority of it needs to be real or based off real things. So yeah, if we were living some god’s dream or some computer geek’s 3D world, we can’t all be 100% fake. And if we existed in the latter, we’d technically be super advanced AI. Is that really so different from a human?
On another topic… time. That shit’s fucked
