I am living a life.
And so to your point that whatever exists outside of the headset has got to explain what's in the headset.
And I am living my life.
I'm not just cycling from random qualia to qualia to qualia.
The qualia that I experience seem mapped so perfectly to the actions that I take, which are clearly influenced by how I feel.
That I get.
But it manifests as...
I'm feeling tired.
Therefore, I go to bed.
Therefore, I have the experience of the softness of the sheets versus the consciousness saying to itself, I would like to cycle through the softness of sheets now.
So either this is
the consciousness has like an agenda and it knows how to create the simulation in a way that's going to yield the best outcome.
And so it like sat there like, oh, what would be the best way?
Like how...
It creates humans in the way that it creates humans.
It creates life in the way that it creates life.
It creates day-night cycle, which already creates like so many limitations on us and shapes our fundamental evolution and all of that.
I'm just like, do you really believe that's consciousness that set all that in motion?
Or is that emergent phenomena out of a simpler thing that
Like if consciousness just gave birth to the laws of physics, then I'd be like, word, this all makes sense.
