’ll argue that even if we’re in a simulation,the things we perceive meet all these criteria for reality
Does it matter if we are in a simulation or not? I think the concept of being in a simulation is something that is talked about a lot in philosophy and other subjects. But if we are in a simulation, how much does it really affect our day to day lives. If we discovered that we are in a simulation, who's to say that there is anything outside of it?
Philosophy helps to shed light on(mostly new) questions about technology. Technology helps to shedlight on (mostly old) questions about philosophy. I wrote this book inorder to shed light on both sorts of question at once.
I think this connects to what we were talking about in class about gamification. Gamification is a concept that intersects with philosophy. Is it ethical to make certain concepts into a game? This text is trying to do the same thing, and interconnect philosophy and technology, by asking questions about emerging technology (ethics, privacy concerns etc), through a philosophical lens.
