    My theory has always been this: even if we were a part of a simulation, our perceived reality is real to us. It's very possible you could be the only conscious entity in your reality - however it is still your reality. Everything you perceive is real, regardless if it exists outside of your own consciousness. So whether or not we live in a simulation is irrelevant because everything we perceive is still real and genuine to us.

      My whole interpretation of the simulation theory is that if it isn't real at our very core being are consciousness is just electrical outputs in the brain. Signals of information. It makes no difference if we are in a simulation or the one true reality because how we function would be virtually the same. Even down to what you believe happens if you die. A simulation could constantly start you over or put you into a version of heaven. But how our minds work and process information could just be a super computer or it could be a true reality.

      @dubaiedge 26 дней назад +1

      This seems like a double bind. How would we know how they behave when not observed? Because to know how they act either way still takes observation, whether through our eyes or another mode of observation. In the room or not, we're still making an observation. We can't know how something acts when we're not observing it. Why? Because there was no observation to begin with. No camera set up. For all I know, stuffed animals could get up & start dancing the jig in a child's room when they turn out the light. Just seems contradictory. And leaves out the experiment itself impacting a particle's behavior in terms of the controls used.

      sounds like a joke almost, but it´s weird how much DMT lets you see through the physical "reality" we perceive everyday. You just get this very convincing feeling/image that something is going on there, which can not be imagined by the brain; in fact the brain is not really capable of fully integrating this experience.

      That would largely defeat the point of the simulation though. The whole point of the simulation would be to simulate things to such a degree, that the output would be applicable and comparable to the actual real world, otherwise the data gathered about the simulation would largely be pointless. It's like a game simulating aliens that don't actually exist....simulating them doesn't tell us anything, because they're just artificial imaginary characters that only exist in the form they exist in because they're programmed to exist that way, and couldn't really exist in the real real world, which would again make the data pointless.

    Today, I was jogging at 6.2 speed with no incline on a treadmill. The treadmill suddenly, and unexpectedly, COMPLETELY STOPPED. I was shocked when I looked down and saw the motionless belt. Incredibly, both my feet had stopped also. I felt frozen in place. I had zero loss of balance, or any forward momentum. That exact moment didn't feel real. It was a moment of extreme fear, relief, and amazement. How could I react so quickly without notice?
    I'm 66 years old, and spend a lot of hours on the treadmill. I primarily speed walk at 4.5 speed, and occasionally jog at 6.2, and sprint at 8.2. I average 45 minutes of duration. Today I had been on the treadmill for just over an hour.
    I constantly vary my speed, cadence and stride and believe I'm always in total control. I've treadmilled 60+ miles in a day and have published a few posts explaining how I feel a connection between my brain, body, and the treadmill. My focus is locked into a spot on the treadmill headboard throughout my sessions. I'm constantly focused on stride symmetry. This extreme level of focus was perpetuated by my skeletal imbalance. I'm missing a significant part of my shoulder blade due to a jaw transplant.
    I wouldn't dare consider reinacting what happened today. It doesn't seem physically possible for me to stop simultaneously with the treadmill,and have no loss of balance or feel any forward momentum. Can someone explain how this would support the simulation argument?
    That moment was the most unreal moment of my life. The next closest were two near death experiences.

Inside the ground floor building there was a huge room with virtual reality games. You got a headset, a gun and stood inside a large hex-shaped crib. The gun was the controller, but where you moved your head is how you turned. The game was a very basic, 3D block-type FPS shooter and multiplayer (supported 4 players). I believe the system that was used was called 3DO.

    It's weird, as far back as I can remember, I was convinced we were in a simulation. I have distinct memories of bugs and glitches and strange experiences such as taking my VR headset off and standing on something like a 360 treadmill, wired up to weird machines. I had no idea how to ask my parents about this, but I did my best. They just didn't get it. By the time I was 6 or 7, I guess the matrix managed to convince me it was real and I eventually stopped asking these questions.
    I grew up in a rural french mountain village with no internet access in the 90's. So I had no way of getting these ideas from an external source.
    These days, I'm less and less sure that I should have stopped asking questions.

    The part where he said it would be more sustainable to build VR only in the surface and more in detail only when we take a closer look is great. Thats actually something i always thought about as a child. I remembered playing Counter strike condition zero, and thought about the other characters in the game. I had a question that when those characters both on my teams and the terrorist team are not on my screen are they really there? Or they are only there when i took a certain path or walk into a certain room and see them shooting at me and i shoot back. Its kinda similar to what he said about, if i understood what he meant correctly, he talked about the table they are sitting at in a VR world created, they could take a microscope and other equipment to look at the table observe the atoms and whatever that the table is made of and make measurements etc. But those smaller details don't have to be created for real until they take a microscope and take a look at it that would make it easier and using lesser computing power instead of creating everything with details.

      About Counter Strike, i guess they could simulate the bots movement from their base to your position but nothing else at all. So PC will not calculate all renderings etc..
      Another thing is they have calculated the some scenarios of the positions you'll meet the first bots and just give you one of these scenarios without any prior calculation.

      ​@M4rs0 The quantum double slit experiment does appear to support the hypothesis we are living in a simulation where only what is observed is fully rendered. How else to explain that merely observing an experiment alters the outcome. A single photon fired at a double slit produces an interference pattern on the screen if the path of the photon is not observed, implying the photon travels through both slits and interferes with itself. Yet observe that photon and the interference pattern disappears and the photon is always observed travelling through one slit or the other. The interference pattern still disappears if the photon is only observed after it has already travelled through the slits. This is exactly what would be expected if the universe is simulated - only that which is observed would need to be fully rendered.

    To anyone who disagrees with Bostrom saying he invented the simulation argument, he did. There’s a difference between a theory, and an argument. He didn’t develop the theory or be the first to think of it. He wrote a published paper and developed the simulation argument which contains 3 points within the argument using what we know today that makes it hard and basically impossible to refute the argument.

      At a certain point of intelligence, the concept of perma-never existence starts to permeate into every part of daily life. Being is better than not being, why would anyone want to not be?
      There's nothing worth talking about, thinking about, or doing if it's not advancing this seemingly unclearable hurdle. Ignoring it for creating the next generation only puts off the question until eventually the combination of an easier life and the aforementioned intellect boost makes the same questioning pop up. (Though I don't disregard the value of life, make sure you hit the replacement rate!)
      For me personally, it started at age 4. I could spell dinosaur names at 3, and there has been next to nothing learned outside philosophy and biblical validations. I've been held back from so much potential by feeling the constant void. What value am I gaining from literal emotional, mental and physical stunting through the challenges these questions brought? I know what potential I've lost, and I still feel zero reason to alter that path until I find SOME kind of light forward
