I was half expecting the wargame that won to be Warhammer 40k

[@caelestigladii]

Considering current scifi popularity, star trek or wars would be it. Wh40k is nowhere near as popular.

[@Iluvantir]

If you're going for Raid boss in Live Time Combat, then WoW has to be it. WH40K rule set doesn't really parse well with reality as we're long past the days of taking a shot then waiting patiently for the other side to do the same (roll dice). As the MMO that was the biggest, and still has the most influence of them all? And likely has more well known "World First Kills" for Raids... yeah... Leeroy Jenkins for the win. I just hope he had enough chicken to tide him over...

Guess that just means the odds are still up in the air. We are at least more likely than those guys to see some aliens.

[@spaceengineeringempire4086]

@@ZpEB2741I’m pretty sure the ascended humans will try to create a DRG (dimensional rift generator) and locate the displaced earth and help them. Would be easy to do if you just make a few alien species. Then teach them lessons eventually making them be ready for assertion when that’s done just incorporate them and turn the now lifeless reality into pure energy for projects.

[@demonlordotrt754]

When humans realise reality is just a game.

[@milkjr8883]

I hate that they called it 'observation' rather than 'interaction', it leads so many people into thinking quantum events are magic god events where you commune with the divine. Observation in this narrow context merely means interaction. The 'observer' can be a single photon being absorbed and re-emitted by whatever is being 'observed', like an electron. No minds are involved, minds (or rather the substrate they exist on) probably can't even be small enough to participate in any singular sense. 'Quantum' also doesn't mean space magic where anything goes, it just means we're dealing with certain discrete quantities. That's not a pet peeve of mine though so I usually let it go.

[@cewla3348]

quantum just means small, discrete, and nerds love it.

[@jasonwarren9279]

*Wikipedia has entered the chat*

[@albernard8751]

How much you wanna bet Humanity will find SOME way to make Quantum mean space magic where anything goes? We’ll just whack the problem until it actually works. Humanity can and will break and remake reality. That’s just what we do. We don’t need really. Because WE SIMPLY ARE REALITY! An actual scientist: that’s not how that works… Humanity: *Somehow makes it work* Scientist: *faints*

[@rfactor1502]

To be fair, the core concept is basically a what if on a misconception of quantum physics, making the observation matter rather than the inevitable interaction because of observation at that scale. If it worked like actually quantum, the bots would need to be doing a lot more than thinking hard. Instead we just have countless simple minds thinking "I see X, therefore Y", with X being an observable phenomenon, and Y a desired outcome. Applied theology likely connects the dots between what's effectively mass produced prayer and mathematics that would need to cover both quantum and astronomical scales to not accidentally a black hole or something.

[@anathardayaldar]

I retcon this by thinking that even the most noble and wise people that ever existed all started out as little shits when they were children.

[@skyrere]

anathardayaladar is right. give us a break man. We aren't stupid toddlers forever. Do YOU want to be treated like a know-nothing child for your whole life, or given the opportunity to show that you have grown past your stupid/selfish/greedy/vengeful/narcissistic/self-centered/asinine/behavior, to learn to be better when there is no longer any scarcity, and dreams/prayers do become fulfilled? It's ok emry. WE all started as something else.

[@denalozecon9074]

An interesting philosophical speculation on 'The Observer Effect' being actually useful, and the strangest AI Singularity Concept that I have heard of. Using mass produced DUMB AIs to make Humans something like the Q Continuum is logical as explained, but it is just so strange compared to the normal idea of an AI Singularity = AI that are much smarter than Humans. I get the humor in this but basically the arrogant aliens are so weak and pitiful compared to the Ascended Humanity that I do not feel like laughing at their hubris and then humiliation.

[@eezergoode8588]

Obligatory 'Quantum Mechanics doesn’t work like that' comment: Quantum Mechanics doesn't work like that! The observer effect has nothing to do with intelligence, consciousness, sapience, or any other mental thing. It is just that particles interacting with each other change each other, in the same way a rock falling into another rock changes both rocks.

[@Mark73]

Thank you. I'm glad someone said it.

[@cewla3348]

schrodinger's cat might be incorrect because the cat might be an observer, too! also, the pressure change would also invalidate it!

good story

[@MrGorillafist]

I know this is purely science fiction but that not what they mean in quantum physics when they say the observation affects the outcome. All it means is its impossible to observe something without physically affecting how it behaves. Think Heisenberg's uncertainty principle: You cant determine the speed and location of a particle at the same time because determining one undermines the other because to get one value you must disturb the system.
