We are too obsessed with the idea that computers need to be involved in creating these realities. It happens in dreams all the time. The fact that we can make simulations with computers and that there are sets of complex behaviours which we can create using cellular automata is just a part of the reality of this particular dream we are in now.

What if the human body is a piece of ultra advanced water technology, light years ahead of what we can possibly understand now, that is used by consciousness itself to gain a better understanding of itself?

I would have to agree; I think we living through, within a singularity of approximately will be because we can never say conclusively, and end because of change. One of the only things constant is change. That it could never be so much about one, but of the many, because of the many before that would define a before for so many of us. You know of those before that control with gateways of knowing such as our parents and of those before them, the group we belong to, the cities, the nation of knowing we live and from within.

Why does everyone think that beyond this "matrix" there is a similar life? This is the only realm you will smell, touch, taste, feel the sunshine in your face, the touch of a loved one. This realm was created for our souls/consciousness to experience these things. This is it. Make it count.

If this is it, how could you make it count? Some religious folks believe that the good and pleasures of this world are transfigured by god in the next life, but why do they consider that life to be final? Couldn't it be a phase just like this? And absent of god? If there's nothing, the only thing we have to fear is ego death. And that's no fear at all. I'll put it like this. Being present in your grave because conciousness is continual? Frightening. No longer being because, you know, death is death? Bliss.

Reminds me of Tad Williams 'The Otherland' from the 90s, where the singularity I always thought was more Pandora's box than the book of Genesis. There are good people there are warped people, I cant really see why there wouldn't be the same for super ai, thinks that think for themselves seem to tend to different conclusions :-)

When you're dreaming, you don't know you're sleeping. When you're awake, you know you aren't dreaming. I imagine that, if there's something beyond what we consider real and physical to us, we'd know it when we experience it, and know immediately that this plane is analogous to being in a dream. Maybe that's what people feel when they're on heavy psychedelic doses. It feels more real than real. Crazy to think about the implications of this. Honestly, I have fun when I'm dreaming. Even when the dream (nightmare) sucks, it's at the very least interesting. Just like I find it fun to be alive, even though life is hard sometimes. Knowing there's a higher plane than this one wouldn't change much for me. I wouldn't dismiss this plane as meaningless or useless

It sounds like people have really left the coup when it comes to thinking that the physical reality we live in is an "illusion" or a "holograph" which may very well be a false understanding of how this object we define interacting with itself through physics is physical naturally weather we as a part of this "object" could recognize this or not. And then they came to realize the Matrix we are all a part of arose from a singularity. One you couldn't even define as a black hole.

I've read that book when it was published, all its predictions were based on technologies at that time and the Moore's law. Even when that book came out the predictions were already off, I mean they were all super optimistic and all too close to happen (I assume he did for riding the excitement in order to sell more books). Just 3 years later all those predictions were way worse without mentioning that he didn't account for financial crisis, which are cyclical, and other slow down. Today it's just a nice sci-fi book

Your MHC I or II (Major histocompatibility complex) is an example of how your consciousness is not in your body. Being that every cell in your body has your signal to express your MHC and if you take your Organ and put it in someone else, it will become them with their signal. Being that every cell and organ in you takes this signal to express your MHC. The signal of your consciousness is outside of this reality. This is also example of why your consciousness doesn’t die after physical death

@@orionsshoe2424 correct, and after the other person with your organ and their body starts to accept it, meaning the organ is now producing that person’s MHC. If you put that same organ back in your body, your body would reject it. The point is, that the signal that gives your organs to be self does not come from anywhere in your brain, nervous system, or immune cells because those cells have MHC too, to say they are self. Just like a video game, the consciousness controlling the game character must be outside of the games reality. Along with the creator of the game console reality

What is material world? it's just another concept created by logical information, physics, mathematics and all the chemical reactions, it's just information, data which is related to each other so we could make sense of it and create a story to experience, like a video game, so everything is just information, there is only experience in software layer, you can't experience hardware layer unless you translate and simulated it in your software layer to understand what it could be like! But how could you access it when you have no outside tools or know the language of that layer? So we can't understand non-dual state, cause with our consciousness limitation on this level only a dualistic mind system could create experience of the objects and subjects, otherwise it's eternal unconscious, and we are conscious, so there should was a chance to be conscious and if there is a chance it will repeat it and for that reason you come back to it forever as you can't experience not experiencing so you always wake up in a dream like world, a soup of information to make sense of it by rules and limitation. PS: I hope you invite Tom Campbell and interview him, as most of scientists are rigid minded materialist that don't know what they are talking about when it comes to the simulation theory.

I think you're missing something there. Math if it is to be expressed still has to be written/represented in symbols which are physical. Even if it's just in your mind, it is being represented by synaptic connections & the movement of neurotransmitters. Also if math is to do anything it must be represented in a physical form.

Consciousness is primary, and it's NON-MATERIAL. The entire material universe of matter and energy is created within consciousness, by consciousness. This woman is stuck in the materialist paradigm. Max Planck, father of quantum physics and friend of Albert Einstein: “I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness.”

Taking care of oneself has an evolutionary advantage. Those who do probably do very well. And those who don’t probably don’t make it. Which means we are probably going to run head first beyond the point of no return. Just look at how we created the conditions that made the virus inevitable. And then chose to respond to it. We were totally unprepared. And now have no choice but to pray these vaccines work. Even though we know so little about their efficacy or even their safety in the long term.
