A Senseless Conversation
Now the interesting question: How do you know that you are not the result of an experiment of some guy living in a sci-fi world where computation power and storage is extremely powerful? He would put your brain inside a virtual world, and make up all your interactions. The people you talk to, are just a picture, and a sound but they feel real people like you.<p>We have a brain like Zach have, but instead of being put inside Douglas tank, we are showed (and <i>sensed</i>) a virtual world. It's a trap, you can't prove that it's not the case.<p>Douglas also, in your memory, puts some strange definition/notion: infinity. The space and time are both infinite. But does that really make sense? If time wasn't infinite (and began somewhere) then we would know the Douglas trap. He is blocking your knowledge at some point.
