> Attempting to copy the human brain or human consciousness is one of the biggest mistakes that can be made in the scientific field. This will be cool, and nobody will be able to stop it anyway. We're all part of a resim right now for all we know. Our operators might be orbiting Gaia-BH3, harvesting the energy while living a billion lives per orbit. Perhaps they embody you. Perhaps you're an NPC. Perhaps this history sim will jump the shark and turn into a zombie hellpacalypse simulator at any moment. You'll have no authority to stop the future from reversing the light cone, replicating you with fidelity down to neurotransmitter flux, and doing whatever they want with you. We have no ability to stop this. Bytes don't have rights. Especially if it's just sampling the past. We're just bugs, as the literature meme says. Speaking of bugs, at least we're not having eggs laid inside our carapaces. Unless the future decides that's our fate for today's resim. I'm just hoping to continue enjoying this chai I'm sipping. If this is real, anyway. | ||
