...if you have a chance?
Would you do it? Do you think it's still being "alive"?
PS: I was thinking how everything is virtualised today, which led to thoughts about how our real life might eventually be replaced too.
Maybe when that time comes, they will have some sort of automatic cloning/breeding techniques to maintain the world population so human won't die off.
Lemme clarify, your real body will be connected to a machine where you would live in an idealised virtual world that resembles the real world.
The thing is you are connected to that machine forever until you die because it was custom made for you only, hence the entire operation is very expensive and the machine doesn't fit anyone else blah blah just accept it as fact, okay?
You still have to work. Your simulated work will be chosen so it matters to the real life world, and hence, your earning will transfer into real cash to maintain your life support. To keep it simple: If you're broke, you become unnourished and eventually die. Since you live in your mind, hence time passes very slowly, 4-5 times slower than normal, and you "live" longer than usual.
To sweeten the deal, before you enter virtualised world you get to choose what kind of world you wanna live in. (could be fantasy or scifi, but the rule of physic or math won't change.)
If you earn a lot of cash than necessary to maintain your life support (maybe $100,000?), you may change the kind of world you live in. You can also ask them to make you forget you live in the virtual world before you turn on the machine.
