Jailbreaking the Simulation with George Hotz | SXSW 2019
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- We are in a simulation. Has it occurred to you that means God is real? By drawing parallels to worlds we have created, we ask, from inside our simulator, what actions do we have available? Can we get out? Meet God? Kill him?

He's awesome because he never sold out & never will! This is how you retain your objectivity even in silicon valley/ robot world
Exactly - his courage is almost monastic. I don't think we fully understand how desperate the world is to co-opt him, to get him to choose a side*
He’s talking utter nonsense, though.
@@sybo59 I'm pretty sure that's the point George is irreverent and was a bit tongue in cheek here
His net worth is 6 million dollars. Just to put things into perspective.
@@sybo59 like which one specifically is nonsense?
Mario did escape, he's in our memory now.
@Pool Bal copied * 🤦♂️
Very interesting point....indeed.
@Pool Bal if you have the data structure in levels, kinda like 3d lists. and you have the existence of something based on the memory size (memory increases when the quantity in either axis of events or population) items as a list. You could say mario escaped from his dimension of the list onto ours and above who knows.
You refer to memetic escape I assume. It's suboptimal at best.
@@Zegarena We don't yet have proof of whether consciousness is inherent to structure. If it were not, then whether copies of consciousnesses work as pointers to the same memory sequences outside the simulation, or are two different instances stored independent of each other. If consciousness was an inherent consequence of structure, then a copy of you escaping would give no advantage to this instance of you, who wrote this comment.
the guy who's playing me better take that difficulty level down a notch. I'm playing this shit on Impossible
Stay strong fam
Same. I keep finding myself inside impossible side quests or the story evolves around me without me even trying to push it forward..
I'm in the middle of some serious mayhem right now and I wish I could just quit or go back to a previous save point and navigate around this part.
I like to think of it as: seeing the ability of other humans around me, I don’t think im doing what my creator intended so maybe I should pay more attention to the signs and realize my potential
@@paramecium9509 Undoubtedly a creative way of looking at things, yours is (no intention of sounding like Yoda). I didn't think my comment would make for such philosophical replies. You think your life is based on "the creator's" will ? Or rather that your own actions have repercusions and that you act as a consequence to whatever actions you take ?
Probably the dude playing you is not a sentient dude. It probably is another automaton running cron jobs in his nested universe. :P
Just saying.
When he said: "PC knows they are in a game."
It shook me to the core. My life will forever be changed.
Thank you George, we owe you a lot.
yeah. you can't unthink that
Despite all my rage I'm still just a rat in a cage.
This is a seriously cool talk! Thanks for taking the time to talk about this.
imagine getting out of the simulation and experiencing the most technological utopia far beyond anything any human had ever written.
YES YOU CAN.
@Eye of Saturn Easy..... how would you come out of the Metaverse? two steps - deny metaverse as the eternal truth, and second, take off the headset. Similarly, one has to completely disengage from this world, like Sri Ramakrishna demonstrated, to get out of this VR and experience that magnificence. One catch though... NPCs can never get out, they can at best merge, but PCs can get out and come back in. They are literally the Avatar. Thanks.
Man that is a hard gate they've got on his mic and no room mic to get audience reactions/room tone to place the voice mic into a mixing space.
Haha you must be an audio engineer. It's definitely a very hard gate
He is not wrong. My earliest memory is looking at my hands and asking in my head: What am I?
Same. I used to ask “why am I me?”
Can someone give this man a clicker
@Bill Gates CLICKER
Lololololol
That's what I was thinking.
There are no clickers in his simulation
poor guy ....genius like this is rarely rewarded.
@@tafdiz you are severely underrating his mind.
He's assuming the earth is the point of the simulator. Earth and its contents very well could be the exploit, a consequence of the rules of the simulation.
ESZER interesting argument. Pretty sure his rebuttal would be something along the lines of “we are neither intended code nor an exploit of unintended code, but rather merely a random product of the parameters set within the simulation.”
As a personal evocation, this surmises two more questions of mine. Did the makers not see this level of sentient life as a possibility within the specified parameters? Or did they accept the fact that this may happen, but are comfortable that there’s no possibility of jailbreak, much like how you aren’t worried about Mario breaking out of the NES into our universe?
@@JakoMacro people made the simulation because they cant make an AGI . So they create the biggest simulation and hope that people inside will make it
@@JakoMacro Every parent loves the sight of their child no longer crawling and potty-trained. I think our escape is anticipated and not liable to negative consequences for the integrity of the Compiler.
Whether the things seen by people on DMT are in their own heads or a peek through the veil is also not provable or disprovable
What if the "solution" to the entropy problem is to simulate an "infinite" amount of nested realities to "slow" down time - or rather to expand the available time . In this sense we could simulate ourself to enjoy existence longer, and that is what this reality is? Maybe you don't want to go up?
This is severely cut, many crucial parts are missing.
We are passing into a new age which will be characterized by man gleaning knowledge from "above"
Possible answer: When you attain Nirvana, you leave the simulation
No, you're just a guy stuck in your head when you reach nirvana
Why does his mic turn off if for every 1ms pause he takes then turns on again? Is this the future we are building?
How to figure out how to jailbreak the simulation?
Easy - Generate an arbitrary number of base-reality fidelity simulations and observe the simulacrons until one reveals behavior that can give insight into how to escape their simulation.
Assuming we are in a simulation, this would be a reason ours was created.
People Zoo its real. The big problem is the computational irreducibility of large "chunks" of data. We should be looking for Computations that cannot be sped up by means of any shortcut are called computationally irreducible. The principle of computational irreducibility says that the only way to determine the answer to a computationally irreducible question is to perform, or simulate, the computation.
Dang I remember this guy from a while ago maybe the video is newer than the event but learning more about him now blew my mind
First off... I love this talk George. Nice Job! We need more "offensive" talks like this that question the nature of reality.
I think an error that George makes in this video is holding the following two conflicting ideas.
1) that our actions can affect the upper world(s).
2) that meditation (internal experience) doesn't affect the external world.
I think you have a stone left unturned with the current premise you hold on mediation.
I believe mediation does affect the external world. To get into the basis for that would be quite lengthy for a RUclips comment... but the essence is that everything in the universe is energy & information, everything affects every other thing through the holographic principle. Every point of matter is in contact with every other point of matter; matter is in sympathetic resonance with itself.
Wow this is an awesome talk!!! I respect Hotz 👍👍👍📊⚠️🧠
Look up Roswell Alien Interview. We are stuck here on this world held here by aliens. We have to escape. I don't know if this is a simulation or not, after we escape we can discuss that later.
Psilocybin tea bro, we've all been there. jk tho, i like this dude.
So much same. Where do I join the church?
This is an amazing way to get the world to become math and physics majors lol
George Hotz harnessing his inner Terrance McKenna..
AR/VR will give us the power to control our environment, like magic
Damn, 10 minutes in already felt like a lifetime. Dude just fucked my world up.
these's no unthinking it
Some interesting ideas, but I can't take this guy too seriously, because he is underdeveloped spiritually. in terms of his felt awareness of the present moment. Meditators can sense this.
Nice! finally people talkin about it...
At 17:09 a section is edited out.
Having neither the means nor the ingenuity to break free from this simulation, I’m going to enjoy what I’m perceiving to be a fine cup of coffee and go on with my day.
only full presence in here and now surrenders the power therein
Michael Cherrington the Dude abides, man.
a daaamn fine cup of coffee? 2 eggs over hard'?
jessery I’m not sure if that’s a euphemism and I’m too lazy to go google it. All I know is I experienced a cup of coffee that made me stop and ponder the auspicious coincidence of having all of time stretching before me and after me, with the morning in question on which the coffee was had occurring right then. It was, to be sure, a quality cup of joe.
@@derek8742 I'm sorry it was a lazy twin peaks referance. Excuse me. For wasting your mental energy. Ha!
This is like a skit you'd see in the GTA universe. Priceless.
haha, exactly my thoughts!
That's because it is.
Kifflom
this is that missing where you have to activate that phone, and buy tech clothing lololol!
I actually always wanted to make this video game as a kid. Now a little thought loop in my head has completed in a big way. I realise who I was meant to be.
George Hotz is my inspiration. Mainly because he doesn’t give af and that’s something I can get behind. 😎😎
Same
u have no free will give up
This guy gets it! He reminds me so much of me that its scary.
Money will give u confidence .. trust me
I love his honesty vary rare quality these days. Young man you are a genius fearfully and wonderfully made.
I always wondered how Silicon Valley would handle micro-dosing. Guess we've found out.
nah this is the total opposite
Yeah he kind of lost me there.
@light hope
why micro?
light hope You should check out his TechCrunch talk. He presumably was on a hard stimulant (cocaine, etc)
wow, this person did some thinking, he must be on some drugs! what a stupid fucking simpleton you are
14 minutes in, I realized this was SXSW and not TEDx lol...
WHat's really fked up... we're all potentially in a simulation where smart guys like George tell us about said simulation. The creators have a sense of humor.
Problably only I am. And yes, that is bold. But since I enjoy it, I stay
When computer programmers take drugs, it gets weird.
Edit: I should have said "computer program designers/developers".
I dunno, ive been long enough amoung programmers and they seem to like drugs. I personaly never took drugs...well, unless Sugar, coffee and some occasional beer is also seen as a "drug". They tend to be.... creative, destructive and think... differently. definitly intresting to a certain point.
@Blado secretly its why I mention them ;) as these are commonly consumed by computer programmers aswell.
As a programmer, I agree. Many programmers are more likely to be free-thinking and open to new ideas or ways of looking at things. With this comes drugs but many other things as well.
LSD is a hell of a drug.
@@RedMaster-mw6ti the best two things to come out of Berkeley, LSD and BSD (Unix) 😉
I think Hotz might have switched from coke to xanax recently.
you can get the good ol' cocked-up Hotz if you watch this @1.25/1.5 speed;)
Naah, he's still on Coke, most definitely. Xanax's whole another level 😁
10mintwo I think it's taking too much L theanine
they go great together, imo
LMAO xD
This is just one of the many faces of George Hotz. This guy is like an ever evolving entity.
Why does he think math is the same across worlds? Math would just be the code specific to our simulation...
You have to think outside the box for this one, but why should everything fall to Earth at the same speed, 9.8m/s^2? Its almost like it was a value that was coded into our program... gravity.Earth = 9.8, ya know? Thats the way I think of it. If we truely came from NOTHING, aka the big bang, then there should be no rules, right? Or else...where did the rules come from? :P
@@Scorch428 the maths would always be the same. The figures would differ. But we are using man made construct to explain what we observe. Non the less. The rules must be just so. Or we don't get to exist and ask the question. Probably the universe does a series of false starts until the conditions are right for it to exist long enough to evolve to it's current state. I'm sure other rule sets may also work. But our rules set is ideal for us apparently.
@@Scorch428 maths and physics are two different things.
Physics is based on our universe, because it describes it.
Math is a language that is used to describe it, and math is universal because it is only logic.
Unless logic is subjective and constant, then math has to be objective and the only one.
Also if everything had a cause, and therefor has a logical reason for its properties, then either something has always existed, or there was a beginning without a cause (by definition, if existence wasn't eternal there had to be a start, and if nothing came before that, nothing could cause it)
@@Scorch428 the explanation for the acceleration due to gravity being “equal” to 9.8 m/s^2 can be described by our understanding of space time. The theory is that mass bends spacetime. The earths mass makes the acceleration due to gravity 9.8 on the surface of the earth but this is not true as you get further away from the earth. This explains why g is different on other planets.
The ideas presented in this video basically breaks down to we can call whatever sets the rules of this universe “God” and that we use basic observational truths to build complex systems to study the world.
69th like!
This guy is level 11 intelligent. He's already passed beyond just survival mode which everyone else is stuck in.
He senses the bs, but not the truth.
He was incredibly lucky in order to do so - not every has the resources necessary to think about things other than where their next meal is coming from heh
He’s the Kanye of Silicon Valley
@Capitalism 4 life will no brain cells, idiot.

lol that's the best way to describe him I've ever heard
Kanye is a Chump supporter sell out from what I've heard, sorry.. don't think they compare lol
Yes he is
Me: What is my function?
God: Pass the butter.
I'm pretty sure that God invented Humanity just for Hollandaise. I mean, it's not like we deserve liquid heaven otherwise right? ;)
@@raball I'm pretty sure u didnt get the reference :)
It's funny but if you think about it its a stupid way to design a butter passer. Why would you design a robot that has to move butter know that passing butter is a demeaning task? Robots who know there task is demeaning, I assume, do a subpar job, just like humans will work less hard if they know that for example working at mcdonalds is beneath them. Rick, from his way of speaking wanted a functional butter passer, not enjoy a little bit of shadenfreude. I am fun at parties, I swear.

And now it’s all passing away..
He has finally dipped into DMT and met the machine elves lol
39:50 lol "the guy who takes dmt and sees little people does not see outside the simulation, he saw some little people inside his own head"
He obviously hasn't given his blasé condescending dismissal.
If he did he wouldn't be this trapped in his own overthinking-mind.

ayooo, you are the next Justin Y
Super Marry-O. I can't get used to it. ;)
break out of this simulation, only to realize you're in another simulation, and there is always another meta level
Yes, its never ending. And every level considers them selfs real living people. Its a trapped hell. The gods are no more moral than us, they just have axes to the terminals
Not true if every simulation relates back to the source
Nah bro, be ever present and let go of negativity, and you will evolve into a kid, do it before you start getting attacked though. 😁
Eh, I dunno. I think it'd depend on what purpose the 'gods' had in creating us in the first place. Is it for purely observational purposes or is there something more?
Having the power to nuke us doesn't make them immoral. It's whether they ever exercise it.
Hacking the OS of this world is essentially what alchemy has always been. The "game genie" is the philosopher's stone.
Yeh. You become more of what you are (consciousness) to transmute the physical form.
Such a brilliant observation!
True. Old idea in a new terminology
I really enjoyed the talk and many others here ... but why dont you show the slides ?
Keep going, they are included.
It appears Terrance Mckenna has found a new host.
did you catch the Q&A where he said psychedelics are just in your head?
@@ajtheriault8561 McKenna never settled on where hallucinations come from. He posited "the other" as how foreign our subconscious is to us, or extradimensional intelligence, or mind of nature, or extraterrestrial intelligence. He encouraged further exploration in order to learn more but he never said it was one thing or another for sure.
@@0ooTheMAXXoo0 yeah but this guy speaks with a little more certainty than I'd associate with McKenna.
This is highly offensive to McKennas legacy
@@peanutman182 legacies don't poop or get offended.
Half of this can be summed up and described by watching the movie "Wreck it Ralph" 1 and 2.
recommending 2 movies, does not sum it up..
@Peter Lustig bruh do u know who this guy is???? G Hotz is deff a visionary
@@andregreen177 bruh, with what he's taking, of course he's seeing things. j/k lol
Watching half of this would definitely be shorter than watching Wreck it Ralph 1 and 2.
To an extent, each of us is suspended in a sealed chamber, receiving information about the world by a number of cables connected to sensors outside, and the whole experience is simulated internally. Almost like in Matrix.
given the topic of George's presentation, having all these edits is like jet fuel for conspiracy theorists
George Hotz wandered on stage from the wilderness.
Isnt this the guy who hacked the tesla and reprogrammed it to drive itself?
@@actualfactual8737 he's the guy who first jailbroke the iPhone and PlayStation. He's an advocate of once a user buys something they can tinker with it. Sony sued him.
I think recently he was working on open source autonomous driving (comma ai or something like that.)
Hotz first hacked PS3, then Cars and now... the Reality!!
You are the n1 player boss!
he hacked the iPhone long before the PS3

Awesome comment
Who else hates the audio cutting when he is silent?
Sounds like a discord call 🤣
I think the SXSW audio team used a super hard noise gate
@@fred8816 yeah they needed a smoother dropoff for sure
Maybe is censor from our programings
@@stevenrogersfineart4224 i imagine they tuned it to have a nice mix or room noise and mic noise. This is how my drum mics sound on their own but when they are in the mix the bleed to the other mics makes it sound more natural.
This made me remember a cool short story called ‘Mimsy Were the Borogoves’. Basically about a 4th dimensional alien race that had their children in the 3rd dimension and the children had to be trained (with toy like gizmos) to exploit the 3rd dimension in order to enter the 4th dimension.
Thank you for the recommendation. Your comment has traveled through time to reach me...
I have clicked through this in under a minute and am convinced that George has just done dmt and loved it.
39:51 "the guy who takes dmt and sees little people does not see outside the simulation, he saw some little people inside his own head(your own simulation, a further abstraction)"
Ok but you still won't be be on his level if you do it....
He had PIHKAL and TIHKAL on his bookshelf on an interview years ago.
Why is it so heavily edited/cut ?
Was wondering the same thing.
The clips he showed were most likely copyrighted... :/ But from what I gathered the first one was a Rick and Morty clip (either the battery universe episode or the Blitz'n'Chips life game episode) and the second one was some RUclips video about arbitrary code injection in SuperMario.
"they"
the cut at 17:09 seems to skip a key segment

Love George Hotz work!!! What a brilliant mind, absolutely amazing and fascinating to listen to.
We all know this is an architecture visualization project running in Unreal Engine 5.
They just gave us Unreal Engine 4 to distract us from this fact. #StayWoke
Lmfao when he said have you taken Kratom?! Like outta no where 🤣 everyone was wondering who let this dude in

Send this man to Joe Rogan
He doesn't want to talk with Rogan because he isn't technical.
@@cellocovers3982 I'm not sure what it is with people considering that Joe Rogan is the guy to distill intelligent ideas from our best minds. Sure he had first-mover advantage in the Podcast world but honestly GeoHot is not in Joes 'space' whatever that is. Watch Joe's interview with Elon - its depressing if entertaining. All due respect to Joe it was a complete waste of Elons time!
@@Kobe29261 Yeah, Joe is just a comedian who is able to introduce his broad audience to a very diverse group of guests. There's a reason why Sam Harris isn't as popular as Rogan. Funny is more appealing to the masses.
@@cellocovers3982 In all fairness to Joe, I see him expanding the range of his interests for which his traditional audience will derive great benefit but if I'm Elon or GeoHot, beyond the eyeballs and telemetry he's not my first choice for really probing the innards of 3rd tier intelligence, I think for instance that Lex Fridman is fantastic.
@@Kobe29261 Yeah, I like Lex.
The moon is the data center.
The DC would actually be outside our simulation
His assumption on psychedelics not being enough to "change the upper levels" of the simulation is fundamentally flawed, predicated on there being separation between the user and simulation. If you're changing parts of yourself, you are in effect changing the simulation. Just getting insight into the operational model is enough to change things.
Exactly. Co-creation/manifestation. We create the simulation.

I LOVE this guy, I dont know who he is but this is entertaining and informative. Full disclosure, I believe the simulation theory is the closest theory we have to answer problematic questions. That being said, he brings up some fresh points.
You can google george hotz
its weird people like him that come up with groundbreaking world-changing stuff.

Be open minded, suffer a lifetime of doubt.
Be ignorant, enjoy a lifetime of comfort.
The moment you think you are right is the moment you become ignorant! Stay open minded! Embrace fear!
The only keys in life I have found is to embrace fear (this alone might take a lifetime of experience), don’t settle down on an idea to die on until you figure out fear, and even then you must continue to search out fear. Being open minded is the only way I can foresee doing this.
Magic, by my definition, is how confident you are in convincing yourself to others, that what your doing in the physical world has meaning. Careful what magic you wield!
Keep breaking the narrative unless you’re giving up on entropy!
this is the computer super intelligent nerd version of a dude yelling bible quotes on a busy street.
Yeah yeah, the time-knife, we've all seen it.
I hope AI doesn't cause the singularity and an unsung hero shatters reality
Show your kids this and tell them it's Socrates
There are finite number of explanation about what we are. There are infinite number of explanation if you know everything in the universe. What are the chances that we are in a simulation being true? Really small? What are the chances that Hindu or Christian or thousands of other religion are true? Yea, infinitely small. So if your belief does not effect anything in our life, it does not mean it's wrong it means it useless. Having a useless beliefs is not wrong it's just useless. And I don't think that having religion is wrong, some people feel psychologically better knowing that God of whatever protects them. This could be one of those cases, thinking that we are a simulation feels better then not having an answer at all.
This all collapses if we make a sentient, conscious AI. If we can make a conscious AI that runs in a datacenter, we can be the AI in a meta world. But I guess it's more of a thought experiment for people with too much time and resources. So let me indulge myself. The simulation hypothesis doesn't disprove the current physics and will never. Everything physics can explain is part of the game design. everything it can not are the "invisible walls". Unlike other religions it doesn't collide with the current understanding of the world. Of all the beliefs that tell us why we exist. Which will not collide with physics? the simulation and nihilism/atheism.
@@XQzmeeMusic I think that there are not enough resources and time avalible to run such a simulation with curent understanding of physics. We need to involve another plane of reality and that means its becomes a belive rather then facts. Same as religion for people 2000years ago. They used the same logic about the world they lived in.
Watched this a while back - came back to re-watch, the simulation hypothesis seems more real the older I get.
Makes you realise how important imagination is - and some of the greatest minds who have ever lived, found some of the most important scientific information because of their imagination.. People are too quick to ridicule people just because they themselves have lost their imagination and are so close-minded.
So many thoughts go through my head when thinking about this stuff lol just thinking about this stuff makes me want to learn more and more
What if we ourselves are AI - and recoginising what could be going on - is the equivilent of us becoming "self-aware"
What if the strings as predicted in string theory are simply waves from the CPU?
What if the observers paradox is simply memory optimization?
What if, time flows billions and billions of times slower in the simulation - so the creators put themselves inside of the simulation, so in essence they do live forever?
They also found some supersymmetric equations of string theory contain some binary codes built in and are the same as codes sometimes used in computing for error correcting.
As George said about quantum computing aswell - could solve some problems we have no idea about today.
Dont waster your time seeing this. There are far more better people who have speculated and came up with theories on simulation. This guy is just musing on the subject. Surface level stuff.
He's just a bullshitter...

“...I remember first reading Harry Potter and thinking to myself: Man, if i was in this world, I would study so hard; I would try so hard to be so good at magic...but then you realize there really is something like magic right here-it’s programming”
Not just that, programming, math, physics, science in general is basically making a playground off of the world around you for you to learn, experience and manipulate reality the way you desire
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." -Arthur C Clarke
As an atheist, meaning that I don't believe in the gods proposed by religion, I really liked this talk. Most atheists don't have a positive belief that there is no god, but when you don't believe in the available gods, that's what you're left with. An agnostic atheist and I'm not prepared to create a god just to have one. What George Hotz highlights is that we need to remain open-minded. That's why I sometimes don't like to call myself an atheist. There are closed-minded and open-minded people. Taking into consideration how mysterious the universe is and how small we are, I think the latter option is preferable.
obviously
you could also be in a coma
doesn't matter; make it the best life/coma/simulation that you can
Recognize you were created with intent is a deep realization.
I'm curious why is it that so many people are coming to similar conclusions and theories
@@thenuyoo6774 In my case, I was about 10-12 years old and started thinking it was pretty strange that, out of all my cousins, I was the one that made my grandparents into grandparents (by being first) and I got the most love and respect, and out of all my classmates, I was the one that scored highest on intelligence tests and got to attend special classes. I had the highest grades, I was the tallest, the most attractive girl in school thought I was really funny and was following me around. All friends and no bullies at school, my parents had a relationship that was the envy of everyone else's parents and we lived in the biggest house of anyone. The whole world seemed to be made for me and I figured the odds of having everything go right aren't very high and it's more like a good dream than the type of life experience I could see others having.
Now imagine you're Elon Musk...
@@blakevollbrecht9026 🤔
@@thenuyoo6774 Seriously, Elon Musk isn't totally convinced that he's not the main character in a life simulation video game. When he and his wife had kids, they had twin sons and triplet sons. He wanted to improve the world in big ways with PayPal (social mission to replace financial institutions) and instead he got pushed out of the company and THEY GAVE HIM $165 MILLION AGAINST HIS WILL. And then he tried to lose it for social good, and instead tens of thousands of people wanted to work for him and now he's a billionaire and world renowned futurist who could do more for human space activity than VonBraun. At least he's humble by thinking it might be a simulation causing him to be special
...and if you want the actual simulation concept, it's basically that, in the future, it'll be easy and cheap to simulate vastly more complex things. Let's say Coca Cola wants to simulate ad campaigns and they just click a button and run a million simulations of the world to see what ads work best. If there are zillions of simulated humans and only billions of actual humans, then it's vastly more likely (basically guaranteed) that you're a simulated human. Or, maybe that type of simulation will never become possible before human society ends. Or maybe outside the simulation there is no such thing as humans and it's for a different purpose
I consider this to be a valid reality, and it's no less significant to me knowing that there might be a reality outside it. Maybe we're just really tiny and our whole universe is just an insignificant particle in a world of much larger beings. Our life experience wouldn't be any lesser. Knowing any of these things to be true wouldn't change what you already know about the world though (i.e. don't make the mistake of the guy who thought he should be able to walk through walls after learning that molecules are mostly empty space) The world would just be the same one you've always known
In the future, when I create a shared Simulation, I'll make it so you live 369 lives, and have your memory wiped every time. But I'll leave back doors and reminders to open it up. Like Symbols. Patterns. Numbers. Psychedelics. And I'd stop by some chat to mention how I'm going to do this to make another Simulation.
He put a slide of Kratom.
*Hits blunt*
Fascinating.
Was highly interesting until about 40mins in. Then when he said that DMT shows you whats in your head, and the end result is to change the external world. He contradicted his intro by going against faith and imagination. The idea and construction starts in the head before it is placed on the Game world. "I think I'll draw a Mouse with Red Pants that talks" - Walt Disney. "I think I'll draw a giant green monster for when im angry" - Stan Lee , both changing the External world. The DMT visuals are the idea's constructing themselves in a form of Geometry that we can't understand unless we have a large enough math level of the Universe. You can't understand Quantum Physics if you never learned Calculus which can't be understood without basic math. Using Psychedellics can and will slow down time, extending your life but not immortalizing it because inherently in our DNA is the aging GENE, Jellyfish and other species don't have the aging GENE so they live forever, but cannot evolve because evolution takes place in copying your genetic attributes via your XX/XY chromosomes. Me Copy/Paste XX, Wife Copy/Paste XY = boy or girl clone of ourselves. Each child is 50% ourself and 50% our spouse. You are literally living forever by passing on your genetic data to your offspring. The memory is wiped though otherwise your stuck with overloaded thoughts of the previous generation. You can't understand Genetic Code without learning Programming, but AI can :D
Holy Shit. I have always thought what if our planets are like molecules for a higher being. We are insignificant to them, but not in a bad way. (Do you really care about molecules/atoms in your household things?) Some of their scientists might even be studying us, just like we are trying to study both molecules and outer universe. It could be an infinite stack of such beings. Their actions can have profound impact on us, but they likely wouldn't know about it.
Mister Hotz,
I like your premise for the talk. I could recommend a Toastmasters meeting to help better convey the message. More importantly, I see attempt to observe, control, exploit and "exit" a supposed system which, as you adequately put, is from something unimaginably great. You're applying engineering and logic to a problem or equation of and beyond this realm. How could something from within the matrix extend beyond? Not saying it can't be. If this is a simulation program, what role what a potent natural grown psilocybin mushroom play? We cannot dismiss this physical realm and what is capable within and without.
Entropy increases you say... How know you? If the state of chaos is increasing then life would be degrading and diminishing, biology chipping away as you said. Yet, as people die, babies are born. Life it's self is a homeostasis, a balance between singularity (cosmic mind, God) and entropy and total chaos. Stars are born eternally, time flows forever. Out of star dust life forms and will continue to here on Earth and infinite planets around.
This talk to breaking out and fighting is a limited and ultimately wrong, highly subjective way to observe life and the universe. I hope you read this and there's more dialogue. Been a long time fan of u and your works.
Honestly, love this openness about things which humans have been trying to come to grips with (through language, religion, science, etc. etc.) since we've been self-aware. Maybe even before then. Love Hotz in his "not-fitting-the-mold" persona, he is a perfect embodiment of this type of thinking. Also loving the comments section: Jokes, clever quips, stated possibilities that Hotz is microdosing, yeah. Because why not enjoy everything surrounding this embodied effort to hack nature, transcend these flesh prisons of ours, and hope to achieve something greater than a paycheck?
Here, here! Hear here! We are meant for so much more. We are explorers, damn it!
*Looking forward to joining my local chapter of the Church of Hotz* 🤣
Their are exploits, it’s in our sleep
What?
I keep thinking about how i just leave my toy ai project play 10.000 generations to git gut(or die). now i feel guilty :(
Let's say I take the viewpoint and approach like he has:
1. We are in a simulation. That means the simulation was created for some purpose.
2. Depending on the need, our simulation is/was/will give something useful to our creator.
3. Humans (piece of code "belonging to class of living organisms") are becoming "self-aware" in a similar way to the AI's we will most likely create in the future.
4. This "self-awareness" can be intentional or non-intentional. This is an important aspect to consider.
5. If we "hack" our simulation, will that meet the goal of the creator? If not, what will happen?
- There exists a game console that has an AI inside of it. This AI learns and wants to break out from it's environment and takes over the whole console and uses that as it's body in the "upper reality" as he described.
How will the people in this "upper reality" react, when in the middle of their game, their console doesn't follow the instructions they give it. Was that the purpose of the game? Or will we be a bug/exploit that needs to be shut down / fixed.
It seems more likely to me in this scenario that the second option is more likely to happen. We will either be written out, fixed, the simulation reset, or the whole "experiment / process" is shutdown / destroyed.
Maybe now the situation is like this:
- The creator forgot to put enough unit tests or do other measures for the simulation to have high quality, thus maybe when looking at some code coverage report, the creator finds out "living organism" class has functions that are unsupervised and cause a bug. What would you as a programmer do next? Let this piece of code untested and the code base rot away and the bugs roam around freely?
It's a Game.
Well, if we were programmed by Ubisoft, we are in luck.
The game is to break out of the simulation and give the creator cardiopulmonary resuscitation, then slap him for spending too many hours playing Civ when he should have been resting on the seventh day.
Basically over a dozen years of Facebook just doing whatever. Preachers disguised as technologists.
