Representative of The Over-Seers?

[Eddi]

Imagine, you are an inhabitant of a simulated universe…

Now, imagine those who over-see and maintain this simulation (The over-seers) have made you their representative: The human face of The Simulation…

Were you chosen for this task or designed for it since before your birth? I don’t know…

But you are an otherwise normal human who happens to have a channel of communication to The Simulation.

What do you do about it?

What would this task entail?

What should a person who has been chosen to represent The Simulation to the other “Insiders” do?

Prevent the other inhabitants of the simulation from finding out that they live in a simulation.

I'd um, seek help. From a medical professional.

start by asking the over seers a BUNCH of questions

What questions would you ask them?

What questions would you ask them?

I'd start off by asking them about their values, their goals, and their intentions.

For someone who says that he used to believe that we exist in a simulation, but who has said he no longer believes that to be the case, you still seem obsessed with the idea.

I used to believe in Simulation Theory but am now agnostic about it.

I keep it to one side, as a kind of plaything and live my life as though Christianity is true.

To me it is an interesting side project to which I am not wholly committed.

But to me my life would be much more interesting and meaningful were it true. Which may explain my interest in it.

I find the ending of the first Men in Black movie really sticks with me

My immediate response is that they have made a horrible choice by choosing me, ( I could think of many better to fill the role ) and this would cause me to suspect them of perhaps making many other bad choices, in turn making me ponder how " intelligent " they actually are if they've managed to choose me, specifically

I'd never hire me for that job

If you ask human questions, and expect a human answer, then you have your answer.

I think the simulation hypothesis is interesting as a tool. A wrench to throw into the thinking of believers (and some non believers alike).

I think that it is an unreasonable, unacceptable position to be placed into. Rather than representing the outsiders to the insiders I would want to represent the insiders to the outsiders, plea the cause of my fellow humans. I would not want to represent the outsiders to the insiders. If there were some sort of payment and support then I might consider it. If the job paid, and if I could be happy and secure and have some reputation then I might but for free no way.
