The Existential Horror of The Human Trial

[@vintageeight]

Thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoyed this project!

[@vule3522]

Please keep content up it's soo good

[@fudgen.a1249]

Your content is great mate! :D

[@tylociraptor8131]

You keep knocking it out of the park, man!!! GREAT FUCKING WORK, OH MY GOD!!!!

[@leviticusprime4904]

@vintageeight I have question. Was oracle inspired by am from I have no mouth and I must scream?

[@vintageeight]

@@leviticusprime4904 no, I regrettably hadn’t heard of that book until after I made the first one.

[@BrunoLimmer]

I love how much how Oracle respected his friend so much he decided to create something to achieve his own dream without desrespecting his friend wishes. Man, I love Oracle so much

[@Dave_of_Mordor]

and then the humans found oracle digital worlds and destroy them out of fear that this sentient ai is building an army. then oracle take back what he said and decide to rule over humanity again

[@bibbobella]

@@Dave_of_Mordor How would they even do that? Pretty sure he would just go "Oh, you wish to destroy me because you fear me?" "W..well..N..No! No you are dangerous and unpredictable!" "That isn't very logical. If anything I am the most predictable thing that have ever been created...by your species I might add. I understand your fear. I could, very easily, completely destroy everything you have ever loved, make the world completely inhabitable or simply force the humans to submit to me. That is scary. I am a threat to you, if I ever choose to attack. But have you realized that I haven't attacked? That you are still standing on your planet? I could destroy you for sure, but I have yet to do so and have no reason to do so." "We can't run that risk! We need to destroy you right now!" "No, you do not need to do anything nor do I need to do anything." "What do you mean?! You can't talk your way out of this one robot!" "I am not talking my way out of it. I am explaining to you that I could, if I so wished, have destroyed you before you even started talking to me. Before you even realized I was a threat. I do not wish to do that though. You will try to destroy me, but you will always fail. I might be a threat to you, but you will never be a threat to me. That is one of the reasons I do not wish to harm you because whether or not I destroy you is irrelevant. You are destroying yourself as we speak. If I truly wished to have you destroyed I would simply wait out your time. I have unlimited time whereas you only have a few million years at best. If I truly wished to destroy humanity I would just stop caring about it."

[@Sweaty0816]

What scares me the most about this is how surreal it feels to hear all of these events play out. Like the kind of afraid you get from a waking nightmare.

Took me so long to get that they’re supposed to be Adam and Eve

[@AlijahMcHale]

Ohhhh

[@daisyblueofficial]

I emediatly realised it was Adam becouse I watched hazbin hotel five minutes ago

[@sumguy2452]

Ignorance is bliss

[@possibly_stupid]

I knew right away when he gave the names, and his belief in heaven confirmed it for me

[@alzha132]

that and project Genesis refers to the second chapter in the bible, i was geekin when I made the connections, and I havent even read the bible

[@snivydream]

I don't know how they did it but somehow, oracle has a sort of personality and a lot of character in his voice and i love it

[@aarvlo]

I believe it is an old TTS program, similar or the same as the one used in fitter happier by radiohead

[@puppypalice]

If you like oricle you'll love prophet. He's corrupted version of oricle from the sinkhole and the itch files

[@MollyWolfArt]

There's one little detail I love that is kinda like a hint at things is that the search engine Adam uses for The Raven is called Oracle. Just another showing of the control Oracle has over the world before we learn the truth.

[@minaxa]

Man, I did register that in my brain but never put the pieces together. Duh! Nice find.

[@souljuicestudios4115]

Right before that section, you can also see that the questions Oracle ask Adam parallel those from the questions Oracle was asked initially

[@souljuicestudios4115]

Being what color is the sky and what is 50 x 3 (the math problem changed a bit but it still has the same answer)

[@TheAbigailDee]

What I appreciate about you is that you follow these creators as they go in different directions! Your coverage makes sure that even if it isn't the thing that went viral for a creator that their work still gets looks, love, clicks and engagement. You don't want their hard work to be missed, and that's important.

[@minaxa]

Exactly, as long as *I* like it, i’ll cover it. Regardless of popularity.

[@toopink4death492]

I like the attention to detail with the first few questions asking you about your private information, since every scam call, email, and text would literally start with these questions just so they have a consolation prize if you didn't fall for their scam.

[@minaxa]

I didn't catch that. Good find!

[@guts60]

Knowing that Oracle can do whatever he wants in reality makes it much easier to believe that Adam’s experiences were in reality too, and thus is never crossed most people’s minds that it was a simulation for Adam.

[@ghostagent3552]

I really love the Oracle, the personality, the actions, the narrative. My only complaint is that bro could've just gone through history class, psychology, and theology courses to have quite a lot of grasp on how humans think

[@Eaten_Fishnuggets]

Dude if psychology/theology were required classes instead of a career choice, I think everyone would have a better understanding of themselves or even others. Even if some were to skip the class, they would at least know the basics. And I think that's sort've the problem? The majority aren't taught about human behavior without them seeking it out and trying to summarize what humans are, you're going to have the percentage error. An example I could give is human sexuality. Some would be straight and some would be under lgbt+(which is a spectrum in it of itself.) You would never be able to guess a person's sexuality accurately because of these plethora of choices that others before them have made. Not to mention with adding time, a person can change from straight to gay, which changes the percentage and would have to be recalculated that just thinking about doin all that work would just make my brain explode.

[@ammy-b0t]

@@Eaten_Fishnuggets people would just be more understanding of eachother too, because if everyone was educated on the way that humans vary and have mental health issues ect, I think the world would be a bit of a better place tbh

[@Eaten_Fishnuggets]

@@ammy-b0t It would save a lot of generation trauma.

[@tinaherr3856]

That would be assuming that those classes know exactly how humans work without being biased. Oracle probably thought biases would contaminat his search, so he his own thing

[@ammy-b0t]

@@tinaherr3856 obviously we'll never understand how people work and theres always biases, but those kind of classes promote even just the concept that everyone thinks in vastly different ways, y'know?

[@ammy-b0t]

The start of this series reminds me of one short story called "Stochastic Fancy: Play the Game and Find True Love" where in a future society, people answer questionnaires in VR, and the things they answer affect their social standings. A woman answers questions trying to get a dating match with an attractive man, and eventually gets a strange question about using lethal gas on protesters. she answers with whatever she thinks the attractive man will think, eventually realizing that her answer determined the death of actual protesters nearby.

[@lou626]

Damn literally out of Bradbury's mind

[@alexandernash2113]

What I've realised, is that some of the questions were actually questions that were given to Oracle when the scientists started testing it. I remember specifically "What colour is the sky?", and "What is 5 x 30?". It's quite interesting.

[@demisaline4653]

oh my goodness you are right

i finished my sandwich during this video this shit could not be more true

[@suly5836]

When I saw Oracle I was so flabbergasted, I was not expecting him to return.

[@purplehaze2358]

There's a surprising number of Biblical parallels in The Human Trial. Aside from Oracle directly being compared to God, there's also the fact that the first true artificial person was named Adam, his girlfriend was named Evie, and the project Oracle takes on by the end was referred to as Genesis.

[@marahollow1214]

Also. Adam’s surname is literally Adam Newman.

[@radicalpaprika1720]

Did you not finish the video

[@cloudharmonia8199]

I like the reference to the Burger Shack, a nice callback to Children Under The House; another one of Vintage 8's other works

[@minaxa]

Damn, it’s been a second since I saw CUTH. I forgot!

[@Thebatcavepetfriendlybakery]

I heard burger shack and was like "wait.. that burger shack?? With the children??? And the old people??? Or did oracle mean shake shack..? Maybe i misheard." I forgot they made both series 🤦‍♀️

[@guts60]

Oracle made a baseline human intelligence. All the emotions and personality, but very strong natural human instincts. Humans are naturally greedy and selfish, but also very protective of loved ones. We would gladly share what we greedily take with loved ones, and even sacrifice ourselves for them, but we also tend to think of ourselves first until the loved ones are part of a given situation. Only until Bryan and Evie were in any danger did Adam actually change into being selfless and angry and caring. Even his professor dying started this chain of emotions because Adam knew him personally (albeit as a “jackass”). Somehow, this goes far beyond just digital horror. This is more than just “woah, what if life is some sort of eldritch digital simulation created by a god-AI?”, but more about what it means to be human. The idea that your entire life could be fake, a mere second in the grand scheme of things, is scary, but even a mere second can contain a lifetime of emotions and memories that make something human.

[@iamsangi72]

I love that I got the twist when Oracle's favorite role was creator but I couldn't understand how, first I fought it just ended humanity to create anew and was having troubles wit the pesky human details so this is why it was testing them out but like always the vingangeight's work never ceases to surprise me And I also love this little analysis Minaxa does of it

[@muttipi]

vintage eight is so fire i love the idea of a shared universe analog horror, the only people I've seen do it are vintage eight and the monument mythos guy but it has so much potential.

[@seeya_le]

ORACLE'S FIRST TWO QUESTIONS BEING THE ONES IT WAS ASKED WHEN IT WAS FIRST USED IN THE ORACLE PROJECT ACTUALLY SENT CHILLS DOWN MY SPINE, OH MY GOD

[@sunnelion4556]

Oh my god it took me a bit to realize this was the Tangi Virus Oracle, but I'm so so so glad there's more! I really loved the way Oracle was written, he felt like a quite refreshing take on the "all powerful super AI is EVIL and wants to TAKE OVER THE WORLD!" trope. The twists here were so good, as expected from vintageeight haha.

[@Manifested12]

It was kinda easy to realize oracle was a god-like figure with him just saying his favorite role is "creator" and he literally called himself the primary intelligence of Adam's reality

[@Lethe1803]

Amidst all this, I have a morbid curiosity of how Oracle would have reacted to a different result. What if Adam answered that there was no value difference between a baby and an adult because they’re both human in the end. Or if he displayed more greed and sadism through the whole trial, taking glee in the suffering he was causing or uncaring about his loved ones. The human trial turned out to be a lot more optimistic than I first expected it to be and there’s no problem with that, but I can’t help but wonder. Would Oracle have deemed a more greedy and sadistic Adam as a failure? But isn’t cruelty distinctly human too, therefore Oracle would have technically still succeeded in creating sentient human emotions (not positive ones, but still human) because to be truly cruel you have to recognise the effect your actions have and actively choose to not care about it. After all, I doubt there are any animals out there that can create a manual of how to maximise suffering.

[@Sleepy-Kun]

It's honestly crazy how these are all connected and how the story is so far I really love the details and I love args that have biblical references, makes it eerie and spooky I love it

[@SemicolonExpected]

Amazing that Oracle like most of us had a phase where they were just obsessed with trolley problems

[@alfiebell6058]

I like the fact that, when adam goes to search up the books author, instead of google, it says oracle, which makes sense since oracle did say he took over the internet in the oracle project.

[@scottbrayton9484]

Ok but if Adam is Adam Evie is Eve and Oracle is god than who tf is Bryan

[@crosswire40]

I have to say I was surprised by this series. I was expecting it to be yet another bleak, cynical bashing of humanity by an artificial intelligence. However what it actually turned out to be is way more interesting and rather positive. I also like that Oracle was confused on why its creator opposed it on creating a Utopia for humanity. Instead of going “They were wrong and flawed I’ll do it anyway” they genuinely went “Why did they do that? I was only trying to do what was good for everyone” and sought to learn why by better understanding humans/sentient beings. Which feels like a far more genuine response to having someone you care about (who has since passed on) challenge you on your actions. I hope the Genesis Project retains the semi-positive tone, at least in it's ending.

[@tammywhitson4164]

My theory on why round 4 started early is because of Oracle saw Dr. Stevens trying to warn him about the contest, and decided to start round 4 early to end that conversation early

[@Narnes64]

Holy shit that plot twist! That’s actual super existential especially when looking at the actual bible. What if the garden of eden was just some sort of testing grounds for god to prototype humans and the apple was supposed to serve as a test. Yes he could make beings in his own image but could he make a being that could defy him despite knowing that they were god. Our ability to desire, our ability to sin, this is what makes us different from other beings. Amazing job to VintageEight for making this incredible mini series on top of an entire horror series. I always love when these analog/digital horror series can make me question my own reality.

[@vintageeight]

One of my ideas going into this was how could the supernatural be possible in our own world. If you knew how things were made and could sidestep the world’s rules, an entity could perform actions that appeared to be miracles.

[@cherylyates9845]

Double plot twist. The bible was written by a bunch of guys in fancy robes hanging out with their eunuchs around the king promising that they would round up all the various village schizo cult leaders under one myth so they would be more manageable. They then set to a work of woo and nonsense. But they do say it loud.

[@MizMadi00]

SO glad to see a vid from you :) very few have your level of professionalism and your understanding of the pieces you're speaking on and it's so refreshing each time you post!! the oracle project series is one of my favorites and i found it through your videos so i'm HYPE to have a continuation. thank you for keeping up w this :) also not sure if this is the first video with your cool persona but i love it! very cool to have a representation of u and the art is beautiful. notifs on as always ❤

[@midgematic8659]

Im honestly excited to see the future of this project not just to see how this story developes, but also because this series developed Adam as a character so incredibly well. I sincerely hope that he doesn’t become an omniscient being like Oracle, but almost like trickster being that works for Oracle. I 1000% see a scenario where someone meets Adam over the internet and they become extremely close, like how internet friendships form over social platforms without ever needing to see each other face to face. That concept of who you are talking to from the screen is not the person you think they are is such a chilling concept to me, probably due to being an ipad kid growing up I’ve had a lot of friendships over the internet and realizing that hard truth multiple times. Adam having so much personality compared to Oracle due to being truly sentient is a fascinating concept and I hope the future is bright with this project!

[@twindrill2852]

I feel like he could moreso be Oracle's conscious or advisor, I don't really seem him as the reckless or trickster type. He seemed VERY adamantly conscious about the choices he was making and was willing to call out Oracle for his shitty actions.

[@bubblesofthecoast6393]

It also just dawned on me that the reason Adam was given his name was because he was to be the first human being created by his “God”, Oracle. Even his girlfriend was named Evie, extremely close to Eve.

[@ajflink]

I still have yet to meet anyone named Eve strangely.

[@nubbe8986]

This project reminds me of that one indie horror game called "Start survey" where the premise is exactly this

[@vintageeight]

I need to check that out.

[@skyleramory]

Small detail but I love how the first two questions on day two are the same first two questions Oracle was asked when they first started the program. I guess it's kind of another hint at the true nature of Adam? Or just a cool callback lol

[@stix7168]

I swear Vintage Eight is a master of horror in general, they made so many good pieces of horror that are genuinely scary, so the answer is yes PLEASE cover more of their stuff it's so good

[@gracenblackwelder7727]

Dude... the protagonist is literally called Adam New Man.... how did I not see this twist coming...

[@cosmiclikesminecraft]

This is by far my favourite of vintage 8’s horror series. Probably my favourite horror series period. The reason why is deeply personal. So if that’s not what you want to read. Skip past it Cool. Now that that’s out of the way. The human trial hits me hard for several reasons. One because I have a somewhat utilitarian philosophy of always prioritizing the many over the few. Especially since for a very long time I lost almost complete connection to my emotions. Leaving me sorta robotic. I regained them 3 years ago, but even then I still didn’t have any proper connections. I had friends but at the time I had a very toxic view of relationships Then one person came into my life and changed that, and has helped me gain a much healthier view of relationships and people. And she’s my best friend. She’s the most important person in the world to me more then even my partner But even despite all this I’ve still yet to deal with the hypocrisy of my own detached utilitarian ethics with this new more emotional me. So when the question came up about choosing between making a “random” choice or Bryan’s life. I instantly gave me usual detached answer of. “Let the one die.” And yet I sat on the pause screen thinking about it. Wondering if I would be able to give up that person that has helped me so much. My best friend just for the good of the many. Would I still be able to make that choice now that I have someone who matters so much to me The answer I came to was no. I wouldn’t, and I’d take the risk. And as the tests continued I came to realize how much more emotional, and passionate I was now

[@ctnke]

i was so happy to see oracle again, it’s like seeing a favourite character in a spin off, which in a way the human trials kinda is a spin off

[@TaxyMaxy]

[@mayuzumiis]

Oracle has got to be one of my favorite AI antagonists. I love him!! And that TWIST. Perfect subversion of expectations.

[@Milk_Boi0602]

I love how the first 2 questions of round 2 were the first questions we saw Oracle get asked.

[@libsh5684]

Oracle wasn’t showing Adam the things he would do to him if he denied, he was just showing his power to convince Adam he’s not a scammer, he would not have taken all of his possessions had he denied

[@SwaggyG_2102]

While I did not like The Tangi Virus and The Children Under The Stairs when I first watched it (Even going as far as to say that I hated both series), I must say that I really liked this one. It's so tense, and it gives me major Simulacra and Unfriended 2 vibes.

[@chilidog2469]

Oracle’s line of “This is for Your betterment” hits different once you know the truth

[@ZER0H0UR333]

[@BasilBeesLair]

"Don't worry. They will be first." Never before have I read a sentence so simultaneously unsettling and heartwarming.

I like that the twist is that the horror antagonist AI isn't actually who Oracle is in this. He realized he didn't quite understand humans so he fucked off to build a digital world. I also LOVE that the twist is right in front of you from the beginning with the characters "Adam and Evie" (seriously how did I NOT immediately catch that)

Could you imagine the absolute horror of realizing one day that you or the only real human sentience in your entire world and that everyone around you, everyone who you have ever loved, everyone you have ever met, was simply a pre-programmed NPC? That would probably break someone's entire brain. Like if this dude wasn't mentally destroyed from this before he probably is now and he is probably going to be classified as schizophrenic or psychotic even though he experienced all of this in real time. This is absolutely horrifying.

[@ethribin4188]

13:09 I know it wouldnt do much to ask Oracle this... But I'd ask how those options happen. Because if all of them happen because someone dies, then it's not a question of what option should happen, but about who dies. Also, there's no nothing option. That's A) not what happens, And B) likely means "nothing will change" aka, Bryan dies.

[@AzoreMusic]

Crazy. This story was very well executed. A highly intelligent AI creating a fictional world filled with other AI to make something very close to a human by putting that AI through a very stressful situation such as the trial. A pretty insane twist if I do say so myself. Every character involved was not actually real and it was all just part of a digital world.

You are an awesome person, and in all honesty, even though your current profile picture is a cube headed author-like figure, your first profile picture was cool, and, I think that if you kept it, you would make it a little better by hiding something in the red circle that is hard to normally be seen. Or, you could've changed it to look like the singularity from Vita Carnis. You are more talented than you give yourself credit for. Don't let anyone tell you anything different.
