Jun 24, 2022 at 22:35 comment added Zeruel017 I hope soo, I suffer cause of this concept for 6 months, but there never seems to be a definitive answer
Jun 24, 2022 at 16:41 comment added J Kusin @Zeruel017 we cant refute even basic things. Your ask is simply orders of magnitude too speculative. I’m sure you can find an antidote without a direct answer.
Jun 23, 2022 at 15:14 comment added Zeruel017 I come to ask others why I remain in doubt if others really exist and if I can broadly refute that Boltzmann's theory of brains is false, I no longer question reality.

Jun 23, 2022 at 6:10 comment added armand All the objections I have expressed about the boltzmann hypothesis apply to solipsism. If you think we are not real, why do you come to this website asking for our opinion? Are you going to put your money where your mouth is and stop interacting with all the "unreal" people around you? No, you're going to live like the world is real, because otherwise your life is going to be miserable. Any brain time invested on solipsism, Boltzman brain, simulation etc is wasted (save for funny musing). Stop worrying. There are real, impacting problems out there that require your attention.
Jun 23, 2022 at 5:59 comment added Double Knot Hear the sense you wanna express, maybe more mysterious, even appearances and perhaps the seemingly innately intuitive consciousness do not exist in any sense as claimed in today's another post regarding ontological nihilism which hopefully could inspire you further...
Jun 23, 2022 at 5:02 comment added Zeruel017 I am concerned that if I am a Boltzmann Brain, others do not really exist, they are not really conscious (solipsism)
Jun 23, 2022 at 3:11 comment added armand The question is, why care at all? So you might be a boltzman brain or a brain simulated in a boltzman computer. So what? What are you going to do to make sure of it (you can't, because you can trust none of your memories or sensations) and what are you going to do about it (nothing you can do, really)? Your life span might not exceed a few milliseconds, or, you could be a real person and have to plan on sustaining yourself for the next 70 years. In the end, have to go by life providing for the decades to come while handling the possibility you might die tomorrow, like every single real person.

Jun 22, 2022 at 22:57 comment added Zeruel017 I think we can discuss a minimum even if we are dealing with possibilities
Jun 22, 2022 at 21:43 comment added J Kusin > it is more likely an AI than to create a human brain, it already has the innate information and instructions, or an AI that starts with a very powerful learning algorithm, which maybe...is able to improve himself a lot and understand the universe very very well, despite being very dead? I'm just saying that weighing the odds of something we don't know for sure is possible or how likely it is against another thing that may or may not be possible (understanding while dead) makes any answer to your question as good as any other.
Jun 22, 2022 at 21:18 comment added Zeruel017 I wrote this because I am concerned about this hypothesis, however, for you, what is the more likely hypothesis of the two I have described?
Jun 22, 2022 at 20:02 comment added J Kusin Sure, that’s physically possible. Same like in universe v1.0 dinosaur scientist Dr. Bubblegum built a human simulator for their dinosaur buddies to play in. The question is, if you can leverage this kind of thought experiment into a useful scientific or philosophical action (present post notwithstanding). I’m dubious.
