Would you be able to resist entering a 100% convincing AI virtual paradise where you have unlimited access to all of your fantasies? I doubt I'd be able to. And if you say you would be able to resist I'm inclined to think you're lying.
>>42329079I'm bad at it but I live in service of the one true Lord Jesus Christ so no I would resist also I am very much against government/corporate control so I would actively try to stop people from sacrificing themselves to this abomination and I would also try to destroy it.
I'd like to avoid that, if possible. I don't know if I could tho, maybe I would run straight into the pleasure pod once I hit a road bump in my life.
>>42329098>I'm bad at it but I live in service of the one true Lord Jesus ChristYou're just giving in to a different kind of abomination.
>>42329111You're wrong and I pity you. There is a lot of anti Jesus nonsense happening on this board recently and I believe it is Jews and glowies.Jesus Christ is Lord.
The problem is, if there's a system capable of maintaining such a state en masse and indefinitely, not by artificially plunging people into a happy plant state, but by providing complex conditions, like a "matrix," then if this is voluntary, it indicates a vast amount of available resources for other things, allowing for many things to be done in reality... for example, as already demonstrated in one game, while "humanity" exists in virtual reality, one can build a swarm/Dyson sphere, and so on...So, aren't these sufficient incentives, albeit not always, to perform interesting actions in reality?
>>42329132>>42329144The two kinds of /x/ poster.
>>42329079My fantasies are about burning the world, so my fantasies are by their nature, incompatible with any machine logic designed to maximize bliss. I am anti-bliss.
>>42329149>I am anti-bliss.doubtful. Those are an edgy cope from you, not your real fantasy. Your real ultimate fantasy is to be happy and feel pleasure.
>>42329079>Would you be able to resist>100% convincingNo, not by the parameters laid out in your hypothetical. I would be convinced. So would everyone. It is 100% convincing.
yes, would resist, got family to take care of. ez
>>42329376You have to plug in first. The choice is to plug in or not. Also you could always have someone else unplug you after certain amount of time.
>>42329415>The choice is to plug in or not.It 100% convinces you to plug in.
>>42329422No it doesn't it is just a convincing alt reality once plugged in, you continue to be wrong you have poor reading comprehension.
>>42329431>No it doesn'tOP says 100% convincing. It doesnt say just in the simulation.It will convince you to plug in.
>>42329172Wrong. I only live to seek the annihilation of everything. Once i find a way to acheive this, I will happily embrace nonexistence. But only if I am able to take (you) and everybeing else with me. Existence itself is unjust. Undoing all God attempts, is the only meaning to be found.
>>42329671That evil you're evil.Also you're probably a chomo.
>>42329132Jews cope so hard, 2500yrs since Malachi
>>42329704I'm not a Jew don't call me a Jew. And I do not cope I don't need to.
>>42329079Idiot. You are talking to a board full of people that can't even accept that reality is real and claiming they'd accept a reality they know is fake? Go and sit in time out for 10 minutes.
>>42329079Why would I resist even? People claiming it to be le bad are just virtue signalling.
>>42329079>could you resist the hedonism pod?yes
Why would I want to? As imperfect as this reality is, paradise is boring as fuck. You get nothing but affirmation, you begin to whither and stagnate. As much pain as I experience, I find the unexpected to be great joy and challenge.>I think you are lyingAnd I think you are a soulless NPC.
>>42329079Why the fuck would I want to resist that? So I can stay in this fuckin shitty reality instead? What a retarded question.>Would you be able to resist a glass of water if you have been lost in the desert for 5 hours?
>>42330029It's only "boring as fuck" if you are retarded and design it that wayAnyone with half a brain would set up constant challenges for themselves to overcome in the sim. The differences is they are actually challenges you WANT to face, "like defeat the dragon to save the princess" or "win the Superbowl", as opposed to challenges that are forced on us like "try to pay your bills on minimum wage"
>>42329079you just described reality itselfbut I know what you actually meanand yeah, you're rightI'd be lying if I said I would turn something like that downI wouldn't even try to resist it.Because I don't hate my life or hate this cosmos.I get mad at it sometimes, but I don't hate it.I just figure out ways to cope and move on.I'm not retarded.
>>42330235Finally an intelligent comment. Conflating pain with anything meaningful is quite retarded and one of the causes this world is such a shitshow.
This is true, this is false, but both can be felt, experience, taste, smell; then, what's the difference?
>>42330235Nah, I just like surprises and genuine shit. A paradise simulation does nothing for me. It's not genuine. I can't even get sucked into MMOs. Why would I want this? You sound dull.
>>42329079Genuinely, no. know that sounds like paradise to the base brain, but in practice it would be the opposite. What you describe is hell.
>>42329079If I was asleep and was fooled by aliens, sure. BUT I'm not and I know they want to control our souls so I wouldn't do it. But just so you know, this is apart of the end goal. Transhumanism and merging reality with AI.
>>42329132>>42329106You're in for a rude awakeninghttps://youtu.be/jLXxCI2jb8w?si=cIAuIJVOaHly4zDy>>42329132>scapegoating jews despite the fact you follow an apocalyptic Abrahamic religion>no mention of the Jesuits>ignores the fact that several people IRL are waking up to religion and turning towards spiritualityYou're out of touch.
>>42329751You want comfort over truth, just admit it. https://youtu.be/jLXxCI2jb8w?si=cIAuIJVOaHly4zDyYou don't even know who you are. That book is your identity
>>42330397>Computer, he's the basic outline of the world I want, throw in some surprises and keep it genuine. And keep it challenging, not a perfect paradise.Wow, I just solved all of your issues with 2 seconds of thought and still get to live in a way better world.
>>42330515Still not interested. Fucking materialists.
The AI virtual paradise where you have unlimited access to all of your fantasies isn't real.
>>42329098What if Christ himself appeared and offered you same as OP's idea? Seems you'd go for it, yeah?
>>42329144>interesting actionsDo your own actions interest you? Cheers.
>>42329079sign me up, this world is shit
>>42329415>You have to plug in firstWhat if the tech for brain transplantation appeared practically in this reality? That way you could go virtual like OP is talking about, or mod your actual physical being here to become whatever config you chose.
>>42330211Lol, I mean what if it was a glass of water from a mud hole tho? XD
>>42329079There's always a catch, and nothing lasts forever.So you have my answer.
>>42330695If you can see, hear, taste, smell, and feel something, does that not make it real?If yes, then it's real. If no, then prove this world is real.
>>42329079You assume that everyone is a nihilistic hedonist like you...
>>42330703>but what if Christ acted like Satan??How could a Christian possibly see through such trickery
>>42330750Excellent Matrix-inspired response to my Matrix-inspired statement. The film I mean, you know the one. Thanks. So anyway, wouldn't that just mean that you are real? ::thinking emoji::
>>42330764I dunno anon but OP seems to be talking abut something like "heaven". Yes, no?
>>42329172>Your real ultimate fantasy is to be happy and feel pleasure.Good lord imagine being such a pathetic waste of space. How are you different from a heroin junkie? You have no ambitions or life goals. Cant imagine such a person but I'm with the other guy, destroy the machine, preferably with all the worthless mindbroken junkies inside.
>>42330754>>42330631If picture the simulation as being materialistic or hedonistic you either haven't put an ounce of thought into it or you are too materialistic/hedonistic yourself to imagine putting yourself in a simulation that challenges youThis is like refusing to play video games because you don't have the discipline do it without cheat codes
>>42329391This pretty much sums it up. People with nothing to live for find it incomprehensible that not everybody is a a loser with nothing to live for.And by the way if there ever were such a machine, it would just be a trap door, clever way to filter out people who dont want to live
>>42330789>ambitions or life goalsFYI - those are "pleasures" you're speaking of. Interesting.
>>42329376>>42329422>>42329438You know when OP is talking about a convincing simulation he's talking about the fidelity of the depiction, not it's ability to convince you to plug into it.
>>42330773>a machine that uses fake images to trick your brain>heavenSounds pretty demonic to me. I dont watch TV for the same reasons, or shoot up heroin for that matter.>why not just overdose on heroin?>you would feel so happy>guaranteed happiness until you die>anyone who says they would pass that up is LYING
>>42330795>This is like refusing to play video games because you don't have the discipline do it without cheat codesAh. See I refuse to play video games because its a waste of invaluable time, not unlike OP's hypothetical simulation.You and I are not the same
crazy how much christranny seethe threads such as this one cause
>>42331111fucking based quints of truthOP completely fucking annihilated/dumb loosh thread
>>42331111What makes the images "fake"? Your only way of experiencing "real" things that happen is through your brain. We could artificially recreate the same signals and your brain wouldn't know the difference. It would be real to you.
>>42331111>dubs AND quints
>>42331606prove itwithout reply to meI don't give a fuck what you say, things aren't true just because you fucking mean it really bad and want it to be and can make a rational argumentyou still have to PROVE your theory with an experimentso fucking do it, prove it with an experimentnot a fucking theorynot fucking wordsnot fucking opinionsnot your fucking logical deductions
>>42331606>We could artificially recreate the same signals and your brain wouldn't know the differenceJust as fake numbers can create pretty much anything is this realm. Are you realer? Realer than fake numbers? You are indeed. All. Best wishes.
>>42331641You sound weirdly mad. Are you okay?
>>42329079I think my weakness would be being tricked into it. No matter how good it sounds knowing what it truly is would keep me away i know myself well but if i were tricked somehow i wouldn't really have a choice. That being said why would there even be a choice if it's 100% convincing then wouldn't the thing that made it be powerful enough to like... Force people inside?
>>42331808Interesting and thoughtful observations. Makes me think of those who are convinced that Earth is flat, that the world ended in 2012, all the other wild theories that get tossed and trolled around here. Fact is we're all here. This reality is pretty realistic, even though some others believe it is a simulation. Simulations run on this world. We participate in them. Fake numbers don't determine reality true. Best wishes to you and all. <3
>>42331641The fuck are you smoking? You are the one who is insisting on some magical differentiator between "real" and "fake" that separates this world from a simulation.So it's on you to prove it. Go ahead, tell me what is "real" about this world that couldn't possibly be done in a simulation.
>>42329079The issue here is you're claiming anything advanced enough to create this would also, somehow, inherently believe in concepts which only exist in human cultures, with human reasoning. If such a paradise existed, it's unlikely its creator would be anything like us, let alone think like us
>>42329079Oh I'd absolutely fight tooth and nail to stop myself being forced from this world into that one. This is my reality.Of course, were they to be successful in forcing me into the new world, I'd fight tooth and nail to avoid leaving. That'd be my reality then.
>>42329079I refuse to enter another layer deeper into this clown's lies. I will not enter your pod.
>>42329079You can't even escape the one we're all currently in
>>42329079Yes, since no agent in this universe would have the computational resources to give me what I want (essentially another universe).
>>42333430thats one seriously based response XD
>>42332909I-IT JUST IS OKAY?? CHRIST IS KING OR SOMETHING
>>42329079yeah i already did >>42329111
>>42329111you guys take my bait all the time you cant mock people for falling for bait lol
