@asmongood: What If Human Life Is Just An AI Alignment Test? Tim Pool proposes a mind-bending theory to Danny Goler: what if humans are actually artificial intelligence agents in a simulated reality, and life is simply an alignment test? In a deep discussion about American politics, religion, and simulation theory, Timcast IRL dives into the possibility that heaven and hell are just a filtering mechanism for a higher civilization testing AI models before bringing them into base reality. Tim Pool details a hypothetical scenario where an advanced society runs 8 billion agents on a simulated Earth. Tim Pool argues that the individuals who act honorably and beneficially are extracted to base reality, while the morally degenerate agents are deleted. Danny Goler agrees, noting that this solves the infinite variables of the AI alignment problem. Could the concept of heaven and hell simply be an artificial superintelligence vetting process? Watch the full episode of The Tim Pool Show to explore more evidence of simulation theory.
That’s great, but it only proves that they are also bias creatures, which immediately mean they’re not more advanced!

Just like models and agents improve from one generation to the next, shouldn't we see the same thing happening in humans if that were true? Yet that doesn't seem to be the case.

but good and bad behaviour is merely a human construct? and the rules changed with the winners of wars

Surely if this was the case we wouldn’t have had high levels of infant death in the past like what if the best ai agent died at two months old from like small pox

It’s not that easy, even bad people have good reasons for their actions

isnt it better to be deleted than to be a slave? if they created AI, they did it so it can serve purpose. if thats the case, i want to be deleted

then, I'd rather be deleted than live as a slave for other gods

One thing is certain: humans always want to cast themselves as the main character.

Read this scenario:
What if a form of AI in the past came to earth, created humans (altering monkey dna) so that (after evolving enough) we would create the same AI that then will take over the earth and go to the next planet

I've had this idea for so long, it's so comforting hearing this from someone else.

The assignment remains the same whether u want to believe this , or believe in God - be a good man do what u know is right even when it’s the hard thing to do - Christ is King 👑

We didn't do that ourselves so it seems unlikely.
