A bit puzzled at the apparent overestimates of the amount of computing required for simulated life experiences. Surely, although challenging, all that’s needed is 1. Microwired filaments to our neurons. 2. An understanding of brain function at a physical level so that the signals from the filaments simulated sensory input. 3. Methods to sustain the body while the simulation is in progress. (Of course this is more likely for people who want to outlive their bodies where an electronic continuation of themselves is stored in Iceland or someplace cool.) The point is, for every person, it’s no necessary to run a simulation of the universe but only send signals to each mind that convince that conscious entity that he is alive in some place at some time. That’s much more economical. In such a setup, what we sense no is probably a simulation. I’ll buy D.C’s book to see if that option is covered.

We've heard of manifesting and how state of mind changes your outlook on reality. Perhaps the quantum observer effect is real in the sense that when light reflecting off our environment is applied to our eyeball, the bias the neurons have result in a change in how we perceive our environment. In the case of PTSD, the incoming sensory information is contorted through biased(programmed) channels to then feed back into the environment as a shifted image. I don't really know where I'm going with this but maybe it's sort of like realizing how little control over our reality we really have, if any at all. We're kind of in this soup where we're just a more complex organism that has these emergent properties we call experience but what ultimately amounts to being a slave to our environmental influence.

It’s one thing to trigger the sense of, say, a pinprick to a finger with a thin wire. Yet what are the points within a brain that generates the sense of thirst? I’ve no way to describe its location, symptoms but no bodily location, not even the clarity linked from fire and ice to hot and cold. People can go mad from extreme thirst. Is that effect stimulating multiple points? The wiring diagram for the mind is absolutely tied to the whole body and making a plan for that will be some damn achievement!

I think we can agree that robots could be pretty complex--I mean, for example, we could rather easily build a robot who could cry out, "Ouch," when the robot touches a hot stove. We could also have the robot withdraw its hand with a quick jerk and cry out at the same time. Actually, building such a robot would be quite easy these days. But here's a question I'd like to pose: given we have such a complex robot, what hardware or software we would add to make the robot not only act like its in pain but actually FEEL pain? And how would we test whether or not the robot is actually feeling pain and not merely acting as if it does? Would we be able to say, based on the complexity of the robot, that the robot must be conscious? At what point of complexity does mere acting turn into actual subjective experience? How many units of complexity would we need? The traffic network of the US seems rather complex to me--is it complex enough to be conscious? I believe, but can't actual prove, that mice are conscious as they seem to exhibit pain. But how complex are mice? Or, bees? Or, worms?

Where did CONSCIOUSNESS come from!? That is a question with no answers. That is the hard question of consciousness. You’re asking the hard question of materialism. The answer is, it isnt hard and hard is simply a value imagined through the experimental thoughts of a thinking master consciousness. Why do we think? Why are we aware? Why do we diet and fast and blah blah blah? That is a very easy question to answer. We are a dream of a dream that dreams. Dreams and ideas and fantasies are a 2ndary realities from our brain interface and base reality is the one. It’s so silly. If you’re brave and an adult in a safe place with safe stuff, take the plunge. If you’re more timid, write your dreams down and know that dreams are navigable through intuition because they exist within the interface (these brains we have) but through the dream state we can access anything and everything and back to the beginning when we learn how.

It's an inaccuracy to say Philosophy is the love of wisdom. For one, the prefix Philo- is more accurately translated to mean 'leaning, bent, attracted towards', sharing that sense with a cognate Sanskrit prefix: Abhi-. Secondly, Sophia is often translated into English as wisdom. That's not at all correct. Wisdom is a state of seeing (perhaps more in the global sense), and the Germanic root 'wis' is similar to Latin 'Vid/Vis-' (mod. Eng Video/Visual), and Greek 'id' from which we get idea, identity etc. Looking at other Greek words similar to Sophia (Sophos, Saphes) shows Sophia to carry a sense of 'clarity' ie, to make something clear, evident. Philosophy is really seeking clarity, not wisdom.

Simulated beings can be conscious because beings arent physical to begin with. But because absolute consciousness is the thing which imagines our reality and the realities we create one generation down, anything with an interface can be a perspective and a visage of subdivided consciousness. By the way, what I’m saying is 100% true. But it cant be proven because the realities get smaller on the way down. Not the decider, but the decisions. We can easily create a place that is as believable as this and only render particles and planetary moons when they’re looked at. And we could do this very well and if we slow the process down we can do it even more convincingly. But 7 generations in compared to where we are now might be noticeable. But it doesn’t matter because all of these iterations of reality will automatically be inhabited by iterations of consciousness and all present a challenge and are all of value to the monad…. Get it???? I do. I’m not making it up. It’s actually true. And it’s why you’re all so darn confounded. But in the end we are all as one confounded because the system which hosts consciousness itself cannot be known from within. It just is and must have always been. Or who knows. Maybe a glorgottied will sneeze and we’ll cease to be!! No. There is only one thing. You cannot die but you can forget and that is like oblivion i suppose. Ah shut up.

Interesting philosophical discussions, especially on ethics in application to religion, but, like any, it has to have practical implications. From a simulation theory point of view, it does not matter if we live in a simulation. We (in the form of our consciousness experiencing the human body) have an interface to understand this level of reality and can use it to gain an understanding of the deeper level using this reality as an interface, going as deep as we can. But ignoring subjective experiences in this exploration from a modern philosophical and scientific point of view is a gap. Understanding and incorporating ideas from Andrew R. Gallimore (DMTx and others), Donald Hoffman (source of consciousness external to the brain), Stuart Hameroff, and Roger Penrose (microtubule quantum functions) are essential. Without forgetting the reality of the issues on lower levels, starting from caring about basic needs for everyone. Any abstract discussion about the simulation of reality breaks off in shatters when facing thirst, hunger, lack of shelter, and sanitary needs.

NOOOO!!! - if you we are in a simulation, who is simulating it and what are the odds he is not simulated too - this is so stupid and circular.

Why does the simulation hyypothesis get so much attention? It's just a fun untestable theory...

If you want to get into the philosophy of belief and realism in physics we need first to divorce ourselves from the idea that there was a discrete god, discrete plan and a discrete religion in the past. There is alot of "one true scotsman"ship going on in modern religion and this view of religion is an emergent property of emperial ideas. Judaism for instance is not a thing now and was not a thing in the first century, certainly not a thing during the maccabean results. Religion had proponents who tried to dogmatize ideas, but it also had thinkers, like philo of alexander who tried to change ideas. Paul was such a person, Zabbatoi Zevi was another. So once we get away from the idea of a uniform, univocal creator being, we need to dig into why the prophets and saints disappeared, and when we look at Judaism we see the work of Mamoinides is probably the last big nail and his role in moving mysticism in Judaism backwards and piety practices forward, in christianity we have Iraneus who begins the process of cloistering mysticism which eventually results in orthodoxy and suppresses heresies, including gnosticism. But that did not reflect the reality of the past, ancient people looked and saw agency in everything, in Ezekials vision he sees a woman crying to Tammuz (Dumuzid), the ancient dying and rising god of Bad-Tibera (which at time he was only about 20 miles from). And so how do we separate the tendency to imagine agency from the creative aspect of belief, things like the Apkallu sages of Enki and the like, and like Ezekial lying on the banks of a canal. And here we need to dive into mysticism and all that entails, most of which was never meant to be expressed. The similarity here is in quantum mechanics, in which a particle in-motion can explore all posibilities most are never to be expressed. And so we can make a comparison, but the philosophical problem we can put back on consciousness is whether that consciousness can have a universal manifestation. Angela puca makes a good point about magickal devices, even if people dont believe in the the magic they experiental state is affected by such devices, in other the local environment bears heavily on what we imagine, just like Bad-Tibera wears on Ezekials vision of his Adonai. In fact, its seems to me that our consciousness has difficulty bearing on non-locality, that we originate to be obsessed with the observed and our attention fades with familiarity. So that our expression is always interpretive, we integrate our believes and we express ourselves and we reflect on others consciousness. I remember the first time I came out of surgery, I looked up and the clock on the wall was flying around the room, it did not make sense to me that my eyes where going around in circles and then as the sedatives were off my eyes settled and i began to put together reality. The ego speaks to us even in our weakest moments. And so a conscious universe from this perspective will always be local, which is a contradiction or it will not be real, meaning that it will be endless possibilities playing out in a timeless state in which occasionally one real event pops out. To create a computer for a universe you would need more information then in the universe, but to create a conscious universe you would need more information than there is in a computed universe. This kicks the can for universal complexity down the road.
