#301747* (?/51) ⚐Flag chris: What if...
A game that became self-aware and started perfecting itself
masses of code we cannot even imagine as sentient being
Blake: how would it start becoming self-aware?
chris: Someone forgot the //do_not_become_self_aware(); line at the end, clearly
Blake: I thought it was //do_not_become_self_aware();
Or //do_not_become_skynet();
it can be one or the other, just not both
chris: Skynet is for our Earthly programs
Blake: how do you know?
how do you know that skynet is not just our meta electrons connecting with the true simulation?
chris: Now you're getting into a Matrix-style existentialism mindset and I don't know how much further I feel like going
Blake: Red pill, or the blue pill?
chris: Crush 'em both and snort.
xkcd style.
Blake:haha
chris: I'm going to break out the old "I think, therefore I am", and leave it at that.
Blake: "I think, therefore I am– a simulation"
chris: A strange simulation
the only winning move is to not play
Blake: but not playing means that you lose
THE GAME
chris: the ga---FUUUUUUUUComment: Me and my friend get quite strange late at night.
