wow
we spend *a lot* of time discussing the finer details of whether or not we‘re living in a simulation, less time discussing what happens when the simulation ends. if you woke up on the other side — what does that world look like?

The problem is that we have no priors. Maybe there is no quantum in base reality, no smallest scale with certainty. Infinite compute, easy nanotech

This, by the way, is my argument against the simplistic argument for why we’re sim. Argument: “There will be many sims, and one base, so we’re sim” Reply: “Base might have Casio watches that do googleplex sims. How could we reason from that chance?”

Ive often imagined two scenarios, a hellscape where we use simulations as an escape, or a smarter version of this world where simulations are tools to test capability and ethics. Or we could just be spectators, living someone’s past life, while the real you is 200 years ahead

Religion hits the point decently well with “we cannot understand God,” but at the same time the possibilities we *can* consider seem more likely than the possibilities we can’t. After all, isn’t it possible that a simulation may attempt to guide us towards certain ideas?pic.twitter.com/IQZFBm5ll4
