Even then, you're still rendering the scene 6x, and human models are usually much more complicated than landscape models, (more vertices, more sub-pixel triangles, etc.), and you'd need to render the human model in maximum LoD the entire time; which you wouldn't even need to do for a crowd scene.

@@OhhCrapGuy AI isn't "AI" in the sense that we want it to be. Current AI computers are treated as accelerators to general purpose computation, running on logic processors, and following an advanced set of instructions. It's not "true AI" like Cortana in Halo or Baymax from Big Hero 6. It's not sentient nor is it self-aware. It's a deterministic program running on general purpose hardware that calls upon AI to do its work, like when you ask Chat GPT a question. Give it two decades or so. If all goes as planned, we will see true AI running on AI hardware(using something like Cuda core processors instead of logic ones), treating general purpose hardware (a desktop computer or server for example) as a secondary item to be used to do a task whereas today we use general purpose hardware as the "main brain". There will be AI things running to do stuff and sometimes they will say "generate a deterministic program to complete task A" and will use general purpose hardware to do that single task or set of tasks with the AI and its hardware as the "main brain". Right now AI is like a human poking a jellyfish into the direction they want it too and it reacts and swims kind of in that direction, but in 2 decades or so AI will be more like the human poking the jellyfish in a direction it wants the jelly to go and it swims there while humans watch and nod their heads in affirmation lol

I wrote a short story one time (it went in a collection of stories) where when you worked your mind went into a virtual world. It ended up that after a long time the world was slowly getting deleted with everyone trapped inside. Everyone thought it was only for a short time, but really it was decades. This kind of reminds me of that story. I miss writing.
Sorry everyone I tried to publish it and a collection of short stories of zombies called "then I woke up" where the first person stories were the zombies (like the person being trapped in their body as the boy moved on its own) and the third person stories were the living people. I also wrote a third book set in a steam punk version of 1930s with a robot detective. All of these times everyone I sent them to sent me rejections letters saying "These are good, but not what we are looking for now". I am hoping it wasn't that they were in fact bad. I tried a few other times and got those letters/emails each time or the "We only talk to people who have managers". I guess writers have managers. I tried to get managers, but each one sent me "We are only taking on writers for *insert genre* sorry" Usually it was romance or a fantasy similar to Harry Potter, like the emails literally said "Like Harry Potter". Or they say I had to already publish a book for them to read it for free to decide if they will take me. Now them and the other six half finished books are sitting on my shelves since I gave up on trying to publish them.

Jack acting skills are crazy and it's super cool to see them continuously grow. Also, this is so real, like bureaucratically and capitalistically terrifying, worse than any Black Mirror
@@GamerBath that was my first thought "you want to be deleted?" well shit maybe, staying alive might not be worth the risk of being left alone with nothing to do.
Reminds me of back when Tom Scott did little Sci-Fi videos over a decade ago. He did one about digital afterlife being ruined by lawyers which included having to pay license fees to remember copyrighted works in the digital hereafter, and it had a value option that let the sky be replaced with advertisments and your stored brand preferences changed to match the sponsors.
This is such a terrifying ideia. Like, imagine you stay in a room, a small room, doing nothing, you being aware all the time, losing the sense of time, just trying a way to get out, while you slowy gets into madness. Man, this is worse than death.
Stephen King (I'm pretty sure it was him, anyway!) wrote a great short story based on this idea. Of course, I can't tell you the name of it because, in effect, that would be an absolutely _lousy_ spoiler!
Wow you worked for a company that sells nothing and is morally bankrupt and used false science to pull on people's heartstrings? You must be an exceptional human being.
I need you guys to do a skit where its the classic 'tell me everthing you know' trope where the character just says random facts they know. But instead the interrogator doesn't stop them and they just continue on and on
That’s why instead of just uploading yourself to a server, you upload yourself into a physical drive inside of a robot body, then just have the afterlife world as an online feature, along with regular backups.
uploading oneself to a drive does nothing to simulate human experience, there has to be softwares that simulate, well, everything, from how brain works, how perception works to how the experience that shapes and simulate you as you. also trans-humanism.
@ Why are you assuming that I’m not including software execution? What I’m getting at is that the storage and processing should take place within a physical robotic body, not on the cloud. This leaves you with access to both the physical and digital worlds and prevents entrapment.
@@fajam00m00 oh, ok. That leaves just transhumanism then. which involves whether a robot with digitalized human consciousness counts as a human, aka if they have the same rights as humans do. If they aren't, then you are not allowed any human rights, including rights to your previous wealth, or any future wealth, which make your maintenance to your own body impossible. Or if robots with with digitalized human consciousness are considered as humans, then this brings up the new questions, Like whether you are the same person as the meat you, or whether your back ups are considered human, purposefully suppressed by you, and whether if a new version of backup overriding the old one is considered murder. You know, fun stuff.
@@johnDoe-uw2zs It is indeed fun stuff to talk about lol. Ethically speaking, a digital human consciousness should certainly count as a legal person. Otherwise, this is just returning to the slave trade, and potentially far worse. There should also be laws put into place preventing duplication and termination of conscious instances. As for backups, this is fine as long as it’s just the data, with occasional partial transfers to the main instance. They should not be activated unless there is catastrophic destruction of the main instance.
You know, I'm always so appreciative to see your work guys. There's just an amazing amount of twists, random material that just seemingly comes out of nowhere. I really wish you all success in everything. You all save me so much time from scrolling and endless scrolling on the hub, Thank for all of the nuts. Every video is the right video.
I can see this as a Black Mirror episode. Personally, after Al finishes explaining that the room of mirrors would be my eternity, I would immediately ask to be deleted 😂. Thanks for another great film, Chris and Jack!
@@iambicpentakill971 Unless If he was able to convince Alternity to keep talking to him for a while. Or possibly.. *cough cough "delete" Some of the other people in the hard drive to make space for a better environment for the rest.
This pretty much WAS a Black Mirror episode. Where some lady buys an AI control system as a personal assistant, but the assistant is a clone of the woman, with all her feelings, but is now trapped inside a digital prison and subjected to torture to break them down into useful assistants. One of the most horrible episodes ever, lol.
Holy shit...... that 100s of years since you died actually caused me to have a panic attack. One of my biggest fears tjat would never happen is literally this. Unending consciousness with no stimulation. Theres 2 black mirror episodes focused on that exact concept and I always cry when I watch those episodes it's vert intense for me emotionally and this hit just as hard. You guys I'm sl glad you make youtube videos but you deserve to be writing all the biggest movies and shows out there your guys talent its beyond absurd. I love it so much ❤
@seanwade8188 I also really like it. I never was into horrors, neither they could scare me. Or so I thought. This game isn't just a horror, it's more like a terror: growing understanding of events happened to the base you wake up at, rest of the world and even yourself. I'm only past that part where you need to go over the abyss to other entrance to the Omicron, so I'm yet to see the ending, but I already have a few videos about the game in "Watch later" folder
@@GigaChad1401 yeah exactly, existential terror kinda vibe is way more freaky than some spooky jump scares. Hope you enjoy the rest of it, you’re in for a treat
I would 100% watch a movie with this plot line, where in it, the person "stuck" and builds his own environment with random objects. then gets discovered
This is why we are different - to experience reality in many ways, avoiding boredom or trauma being only one in the existence. It’s like being in one shared reality, a dream designed to explore and experience everything emerging from the self. For instance, when I sleep and dream, I experience that dream without full awareness of who is dreaming. Now imagine being aware of your identity, existing as the dreamer dreaming all dreams and then, you realize the dreamer is me. And that dreamer is nothing but "me" which encompasess everything as one whole structure, the reality itself.
One of the things that make me believe I'm not my memories is dreams. Most of the time, when I dream, I have a completely different "slot" of memory than the one I use when I'm awake. Sometimes I only remember stuff from other dreams when I'm inside a dream, sometimes I dont even remember anything at all except what I'm experiencing in that moment, yet, during those dreams, I feel consious. I feel me. I used to fear someday losing my memories and that this would make me stop being me, like I'd lose consiousness forever, but I dont think that ever happens. Your experience may change, but it will always be you experiencing it. After all, we forget so much stuff all the time, by the time 10 or 20 years had passed, we are not even the same person anymore... yet, we are. We are just someone using this body to experience life through this point of view.
The solution then is to ask for permissions to code things, and for access to the internet, so you can program stuff, make a backup of yourself just in case, etc. While the harddrive being formatted seems like a horrible outcome, it's really close to our current only option where we just die and are gone without the opportunity to back ourselves up
I love how you think the average person would know how to code things, program shit, make backups of their own digitized psyche, and generally understand how all of that would even work after waking up from death 100 years later.
@@atlasgraham154right? Like many many many people have a hard time not forgetting a password or remembering their email login and yet they somehow think those people would be able to code and back themselves up in this scenario? 😂 And why would you WANT to back yourself up if your entire eternity would be stuck in a box of mirrors, like "oh no!! I may be deleted forever and be able to escape this literal hell!! What a shame!!" 😂
@@atlasgraham154Good point, although in principle you also have a lot of time to study and acquire the necessary skills. Of course with a few big "ifs", like having access to learning material.. and of course that the hard drive isn't formatted in the meanwhile!
That _TENNIS RACKET_ By the way, for those interested in this concept as a whole, there was a show a bit ago called Upload. I think it’s on Amazon Prime.
@@JeoshuaCollins While it would definitely be better than a tennis racket, you would probably still need a power source, a monitor, a keyboard, and a mouse to actually use it.
My bet is one way glass on one or all of the walls if this is done practically, if it’s done digitally I know that Corridor has discussed similar shots and how they’re composed so likely that way
Chris and jack are just turning into a better version of the black mirror. In 7 minutes they put more existenial dread then anything that show did in hours
Pretty much why I would never do that. Or even worse, it's a hell and time passes a hundred years for you in the minute that it takes for them to figure out that something is wrong in the "real" world
And It's not going to take a Minute either. It's going to take a Month until the Developer finds out the Bug that accidentally Spawns you inside the Volcano or something
Except it's not actually you, it's a copy. Wouldn't you just manipulate the copy so that it wanted to be in the simulation? I don't think uploading could ever be an answer to extending your own life it would just be a way to continue to influence the world after your death. The show altered carbon has an interesting take on the idea, people upload their loved ones so they can continue to have experiences with them after they're gone. It'd be awesome to find out what people are doing a thousand or ten thousand years from now, but only your copy would get to see them and they have no way to bring that information to you while you're alive.
Anyone else appreciates that there isn’t a camera in any of these reflections? That must’ve been extremely difficult to pull off. These guys are masters.
That was INCREDIBLE. The panicked, “Tennis racket!” Literally made me LOL I was thinking, “GameBoy” or “Plush Dog Toy” or something that could keep me company and provide entertainment. Incredible video guys.
I'm surprised that someone still thinks that No Man's Sky is bad because they basically redeemed themselves two years after launch. Yes, they did seemingly overpromise at the beginning but it was mostly Sony that demanded it to be rushed.
I got No Man's Sky day one. It didn't get good until after I stopped gaming. Or maybe I stopped gaming because of No Man's Sky. I should have been playing No Man's Sky but instead I went to a party and met my wife.
I'm playing No Mans Sky rn (also day 1 player) and at the very least they redeemed themselves. It felt like betrayal but now it's my favorite game and all I ever wanted
At least in The Twilight Zone Episode A Nice Place To Visit the guy may have been bored for eternity but he could change up the room he was trapped in. Here it's worse since you can't change anything beyond being trapped in a tiny mirror room.
What are you talking about? iTernity (the afterlife experience of your dreams) provides three unique levels of customization for your iTernity environment.
i always wondered about that episode if he ended up going to a more stereotypical hell once he learned of the ruse. he got to be super bored getting what he thought he wanted only to end up with an actual eternity of torture so he could only dream about how bored he was in fake Vegas.
@@MrYac-ie8ie They are going off the Christian God. In the bible, it states God is a fair God so since he did not confess to Christ before dying, He still isn't going to hell to next to someone who is truly evil. I suppose his hell is balanced with what he did, and the circumstances that lead him to those choices. Like the Twilight narrator said, "A scared angry little man who never got a break in life".
It’s funny how when I start watching Pantheon, this short drops. If you don’t know Pantheon is about uploading humans to the cloud. It’s a great show that not a lot of people are talking about.
exactly what happened to me interesting,if UI were a thing tho they would just want to get more energy but as long as humans waste resources that won’t happen so it really just convincing people that UI is good
Props to the writer for "you're an AI too". People need to stop thinking that creating a digital copy of yourself means that _you_ will live forever. No. The copy will. Your digital twin, who's not even human.
I can’t be the only one that can only watch this as existential horror not comedy? Cause like it’s well written but it’s a nightmare scenario about being stuck in hell and then dying again once you’ve accepted your new reality.
Chris and Jack still putting out insanely high-quality banger video makes me so happy. This is such a horrifying concept made comedy, and I want more of this for the rest of my AI turnity.
Thats probably what happened to everyone else who wasn't deleted, since Al was deleted too he couldn't delete anyone else, and they'll be stuck for eternity.
There is a novel called Permutation City, by Greg Egan, which is basically this concept. People's minds can be digitized and kept “alive” as long as they have money left over to pay for the computational power that allows it. And well this is a problem, because the billionaires who made it, have their own data centers keeping them alive, but the “poor” people who don't, depend on catching promotions and discounts by constantly changing their minds between data centers. Until an engineer decides to find a solution, and that's as far as I say not to give spoilers, but it's very interesting!
honestly, that's not far of from moving to different house to afford rent. We pay to prolong our existence already. But i agree, being forced to do so "in afterlife" sounds as dystopian as it gets.
@@UfoLBeerSeeker Yes, something similar. But in that circumstance it has more implications, because they experience “lapses”, they are the lowest priority in the system, and when the data center experiences more demand, the system simply pauses them, so they cease to exist for a while, and when they are reactivated, they find they have lost weeks or months. Or they simply can't afford to exist in “real time”, so they had to assume to live in “fractions of time”, it's like a video game, the rich live at 1000+ FPS and the poor live at 15 fps or worst.
My partner and I saw this at Buffer Festival! Such a great sketch, I'm so impressed that you guys whipped this up on location. It was great to meet you in person Chris, thanks for being there! 🙂
Right, if I had only 3 seconds to think, I'd say something like "A Nintendo Switch loaded with all the games and with an everlasting battery", seems like an obvious choice. If you can't live in a video game for eternity, at least be able to play video games for eternity (assuming you never get tired and thus you don't need a comfortable chair or bed in the room).

I've been typing A-lowercase L whenever I have to use Al in a work chat for months. So far, no one has noticed. 😂
@@OhhCrapGuy They made "human" AI for job interviews, I can absolutely see companies doing this
@@OhhCrapGuy AI isn't "AI" in the sense that we want it to be. Current AI computers are treated as accelerators to general purpose computation, running on logic processors, and following an advanced set of instructions. It's not "true AI" like Cortana in Halo or Baymax from Big Hero 6. It's not sentient nor is it self-aware. It's a deterministic program running on general purpose hardware that calls upon AI to do its work, like when you ask Chat GPT a question.
Give it two decades or so. If all goes as planned, we will see true AI running on AI hardware(using something like Cuda core processors instead of logic ones), treating general purpose hardware (a desktop computer or server for example) as a secondary item to be used to do a task whereas today we use general purpose hardware as the "main brain".
There will be AI things running to do stuff and sometimes they will say "generate a deterministic program to complete task A" and will use general purpose hardware to do that single task or set of tasks with the AI and its hardware as the "main brain".
Right now AI is like a human poking a jellyfish into the direction they want it too and it reacts and swims kind of in that direction, but in 2 decades or so AI will be more like the human poking the jellyfish in a direction it wants the jelly to go and it swims there while humans watch and nod their heads in affirmation lol
Appreciate how well you hid the camera in a room full of mirrors
he got poached for his ivory tusks
They’re most likely filming through a one way mirror for most of it, so the camera can’t be seen and there’s nothing needing to be removed in post
God I’m so relieved the video didn’t just start over implying the hard drive he’s on is corrupted and he’s reliving that startup every 5 minutes or so

The horrifying thing is that if this actually happened you wouldn't be able to sue
I mean wouldn't you be able to get third parties to inspect the conditions as well as have ppl irl talk to digital minds?

Well apparently they did sue, hence the reason it took a hundred years and "all the laws being thrown out"
I wrote a short story one time (it went in a collection of stories) where when you worked your mind went into a virtual world. It ended up that after a long time the world was slowly getting deleted with everyone trapped inside. Everyone thought it was only for a short time, but really it was decades. This kind of reminds me of that story. I miss writing.
Would love to read that
dude can we read it thats really cool
I'd love to read it
Sorry everyone I tried to publish it and a collection of short stories of zombies called "then I woke up" where the first person stories were the zombies (like the person being trapped in their body as the boy moved on its own) and the third person stories were the living people. I also wrote a third book set in a steam punk version of 1930s with a robot detective. All of these times everyone I sent them to sent me rejections letters saying "These are good, but not what we are looking for now". I am hoping it wasn't that they were in fact bad. I tried a few other times and got those letters/emails each time or the "We only talk to people who have managers". I guess writers have managers. I tried to get managers, but each one sent me "We are only taking on writers for *insert genre* sorry" Usually it was romance or a fantasy similar to Harry Potter, like the emails literally said "Like Harry Potter". Or they say I had to already publish a book for them to read it for free to decide if they will take me. Now them and the other six half finished books are sitting on my shelves since I gave up on trying to publish them.
Would love to read this!

Reminds me of back when Tom Scott did little Sci-Fi videos over a decade ago. He did one about digital afterlife being ruined by lawyers which included having to pay license fees to remember copyrighted works in the digital hereafter, and it had a value option that let the sky be replaced with advertisments and your stored brand preferences changed to match the sponsors.

That’s why instead of just uploading yourself to a server, you upload yourself into a physical drive inside of a robot body, then just have the afterlife world as an online feature, along with regular backups.
uploading oneself to a drive does nothing to simulate human experience, there has to be softwares that simulate, well, everything, from how brain works, how perception works to how the experience that shapes and simulate you as you.
also trans-humanism.
@ Why are you assuming that I’m not including software execution? What I’m getting at is that the storage and processing should take place within a physical robotic body, not on the cloud. This leaves you with access to both the physical and digital worlds and prevents entrapment.
@@fajam00m00 oh, ok. That leaves just transhumanism then. which involves whether a robot with digitalized human consciousness counts as a human, aka if they have the same rights as humans do. If they aren't, then you are not allowed any human rights, including rights to your previous wealth, or any future wealth, which make your maintenance to your own body impossible.
Or if robots with with digitalized human consciousness are considered as humans, then this brings up the new questions, Like whether you are the same person as the meat you, or whether your back ups are considered human, purposefully suppressed by you, and whether if a new version of backup overriding the old one is considered murder.
You know, fun stuff.
@@johnDoe-uw2zs It is indeed fun stuff to talk about lol. Ethically speaking, a digital human consciousness should certainly count as a legal person. Otherwise, this is just returning to the slave trade, and potentially far worse. There should also be laws put into place preventing duplication and termination of conscious instances. As for backups, this is fine as long as it’s just the data, with occasional partial transfers to the main instance. They should not be activated unless there is catastrophic destruction of the main instance.
they cant afford a volcano landscape you think they can afford robots?
You know, I'm always so appreciative to see your work guys. There's just an amazing amount of twists, random material that just seemingly comes out of nowhere.

they did this a decade ago, remember the white christmas episode?
This pretty much WAS a Black Mirror episode. Where some lady buys an AI control system as a personal assistant, but the assistant is a clone of the woman, with all her feelings, but is now trapped inside a digital prison and subjected to torture to break them down into useful assistants. One of the most horrible episodes ever, lol.
was half expecting this to be a sequel to The White Room
It pretty much is the spiritual successor
Everybody wants San Junipero, but in reality they'll get this
Anyone else notice that the camera is invisible in a room of mirrors? Impressive work guys!

You just drill a small hole in the mirror. Digital cameras are very small so it would be very difficult to see in the low quality mirrors they used.
@iamzid They got so many angles I’d bet they have a lot of stuff
Holy shit...... that 100s of years since you died actually caused me to have a panic attack. One of my biggest fears tjat would never happen is literally this. Unending consciousness with no stimulation. Theres 2 black mirror episodes focused on that exact concept and I always cry when I watch those episodes it's vert intense for me emotionally and this hit just as hard.

@seanwade8188 I also really like it. I never was into horrors, neither they could scare me. Or so I thought. This game isn't just a horror, it's more like a terror: growing understanding of events happened to the base you wake up at, rest of the world and even yourself.
I'm only past that part where you need to go over the abyss to other entrance to the Omicron, so I'm yet to see the ending, but I already have a few videos about the game in "Watch later" folder

That “great replacement” joke was awesome. Totally caught me off guard lol
This is why we are different - to experience reality in many ways, avoiding boredom or trauma being only one in the existence.
It’s like being in one shared reality, a dream designed to explore and experience everything emerging from the self.
For instance, when I sleep and dream, I experience that dream without full awareness of who is dreaming.
Now imagine being aware of your identity, existing as the dreamer dreaming all dreams and then, you realize the dreamer is me.
And that dreamer is nothing but "me" which encompasess everything as one whole structure, the reality itself.
One of the things that make me believe I'm not my memories is dreams. Most of the time, when I dream, I have a completely different "slot" of memory than the one I use when I'm awake. Sometimes I only remember stuff from other dreams when I'm inside a dream, sometimes I dont even remember anything at all except what I'm experiencing in that moment, yet, during those dreams, I feel consious. I feel me. I used to fear someday losing my memories and that this would make me stop being me, like I'd lose consiousness forever, but I dont think that ever happens. Your experience may change, but it will always be you experiencing it. After all, we forget so much stuff all the time, by the time 10 or 20 years had passed, we are not even the same person anymore... yet, we are. We are just someone using this body to experience life through this point of view.

@@Dingooose no i think he selected intelligence when he was born which explains why you don't have any
The solution then is to ask for permissions to code things, and for access to the internet, so you can program stuff, make a backup of yourself just in case, etc. While the harddrive being formatted seems like a horrible outcome, it's really close to our current only option where we just die and are gone without the opportunity to back ourselves up
Nope, this feature not integrated, sorry.
I love how you think the average person would know how to code things, program shit, make backups of their own digitized psyche, and generally understand how all of that would even work after waking up from death 100 years later.
@@atlasgraham154right? Like many many many people have a hard time not forgetting a password or remembering their email login and yet they somehow think those people would be able to code and back themselves up in this scenario? 😂

That _TENNIS RACKET_
By the way, for those interested in this concept as a whole, there was a show a bit ago called Upload. I think it’s on Amazon Prime.
Clearly, the correct answer to that question was "Gaming PC"
I did really enjoy that show surprisingly. It was a fun time!
That series has such potential and then it just went to seed. Really enjoyed the first few episodes though.
There's also Pantheon. It's about uploaded intelligences.
@@JeoshuaCollins While it would definitely be better than a tennis racket, you would probably still need a power source, a monitor, a keyboard, and a mouse to actually use it.

It's a 1-way mirror 🥰
Probably Tilt-shift
My bet is one way glass on one or all of the walls if this is done practically, if it’s done digitally I know that Corridor has discussed similar shots and how they’re composed so likely that way
The obvious answer would be there are no mirrors. It's just a green screen with CGI to make it look like there are mirrors.

Except it's not actually you, it's a copy. Wouldn't you just manipulate the copy so that it wanted to be in the simulation?
I don't think uploading could ever be an answer to extending your own life it would just be a way to continue to influence the world after your death.
The show altered carbon has an interesting take on the idea, people upload their loved ones so they can continue to have experiences with them after they're gone.
It'd be awesome to find out what people are doing a thousand or ten thousand years from now, but only your copy would get to see them and they have no way to bring that information to you while you're alive.

1:03 Having bought No Man’s Sky day one, I feel betrayal. But at least that wasn’t as nightmarish as this mirror prison.
It's been over 8 years are you really that much of a grudge holding cuck? 😂
I'm surprised that someone still thinks that No Man's Sky is bad because they basically redeemed themselves two years after launch. Yes, they did seemingly overpromise at the beginning but it was mostly Sony that demanded it to be rushed.
Funnily enough, a lot of this is similar to the plot of no mans sky just a little bit
I got No Man's Sky day one. It didn't get good until after I stopped gaming. Or maybe I stopped gaming because of No Man's Sky. I should have been playing No Man's Sky but instead I went to a party and met my wife.
I'm playing No Mans Sky rn (also day 1 player) and at the very least they redeemed themselves. It felt like betrayal but now it's my favorite game and all I ever wanted
That's honestly feel like a circle of hell, i could see this in Dante Inferno
At least in The Twilight Zone Episode A Nice Place To Visit the guy may have been bored for eternity but he could change up the room he was trapped in. Here it's worse since you can't change anything beyond being trapped in a tiny mirror room.
If you can do science, eternity won't be boring.

i always wondered about that episode if he ended up going to a more stereotypical hell once he learned of the ruse. he got to be super bored getting what he thought he wanted only to end up with an actual eternity of torture so he could only dream about how bored he was in fake Vegas.
@@MrYac-ie8ie They are going off the Christian God. In the bible, it states God is a fair God so since he did not confess to Christ before dying, He still isn't going to hell to next to someone who is truly evil. I suppose his hell is balanced with what he did, and the circumstances that lead him to those choices. Like the Twilight narrator said, "A scared angry little man who never got a break in life".
It’s funny how when I start watching Pantheon, this short drops. If you don’t know Pantheon is about uploading humans to the cloud. It’s a great show that not a lot of people are talking about.
exactly what happened to me interesting,if UI were a thing tho they would just want to get more energy but as long as humans waste resources that won’t happen so it really just convincing people that UI is good
Saw it cuz of the vssauce meme
Being stuck in an empty room with nothing in it for the rest of eternity sounds more like hell than heaven
Props to the writer for "you're an AI too". People need to stop thinking that creating a digital copy of yourself means that _you_ will live forever. No. The copy will. Your digital twin, who's not even human.

I've often thought that eternity without the ability of alternate perceptions would be the ultimate hell...

All things considered, thats one of the best outcomes you could have hoped for.
Maybe if he was Pablo Escobar. But all things considered, we are not sure what he even did in life.
So... we built hell.
And all along we've been offered Heaven. LHM.
I'm more inclined that we perpetuated hell, since Homo Sapiens is very skilled at creating hell for others and themselves in this life.
@ we figured out how to make it last longer even on this side of eternity. Lord have Mercy.
If this digital afterlife had Chris and Jack videos playing I think it would be worth it
Why do you always add some existential dread on top of the humor? I mean I love it, but it always makes that final punchline that much more brutal.

Every video is a pleasure to watch!
There is a novel called Permutation City, by Greg Egan, which is basically this concept. People's minds can be digitized and kept “alive” as long as they have money left over to pay for the computational power that allows it. And well this is a problem, because the billionaires who made it, have their own data centers keeping them alive, but the “poor” people who don't, depend on catching promotions and discounts by constantly changing their minds between data centers. Until an engineer decides to find a solution, and that's as far as I say not to give spoilers, but it's very interesting!
honestly, that's not far of from moving to different house to afford rent. We pay to prolong our existence already. But i agree, being forced to do so "in afterlife" sounds as dystopian as it gets.
@@UfoLBeerSeeker Yes, something similar. But in that circumstance it has more implications, because they experience “lapses”, they are the lowest priority in the system, and when the data center experiences more demand, the system simply pauses them, so they cease to exist for a while, and when they are reactivated, they find they have lost weeks or months. Or they simply can't afford to exist in “real time”, so they had to assume to live in “fractions of time”, it's like a video game, the rich live at 1000+ FPS and the poor live at 15 fps or worst.
The comedic timing in this sketch is second to none.

I like the fact the whole thing is just abt some dude who wanted to play wii resort sports forever
But WHY a tennis racquet?? The pressure was too much!
Right, if I had only 3 seconds to think, I'd say something like "A Nintendo Switch loaded with all the games and with an everlasting battery", seems like an obvious choice. If you can't live in a video game for eternity, at least be able to play video games for eternity (assuming you never get tired and thus you don't need a comfortable chair or bed in the room).
@@PsychicDave Rookie mistake, you forgot to ask for controllers to never become drifty
I said “the entire earth” in a panic
