<p>
bottom line: it stupidly leaves out poss 2.5... NO ETC can pull it off!!!
they're interested... they just can't do it!!! why not that?</p>
<p>
Nick Bostrom...</p>
<p>
1) all ETCs go extinct before reaching tech maturity.</p>
<p>
2) they all lose interest in creating DETAILED ancestor simulations
(so detailed that the people in them would be conscious)</p>
<p>
3) we are almost certainly living in a simulation.</p>
<p>
argument is that ONE of these three is true.</p>
<p>
say 1 is not true for ALL ETCs and</p>
<p>
2 is not true for all those that survive... and therefore</p>
<p>
those trying... could run astronomical numbers of these...</p>
<p>
Therefore, there should be MANY MORE SIMULATED people like us
than NON-SIMULATED PEOPLE like us...</p>
<p>
so, since there are many more SIM PEOPLE then we shoud think that
we are SIM people (since there many more of them!)</p>
<p>
Also a recursive possibility... we are in a sim and WE develop a sim!</p>
<p>
minute 10 Ancestor simulations...</p>
<p>
talks v inadequately about consciousness and the tech capability...</p>
<p>
a number of follow up papers on this...</p>
<p>
the hypothesis.. "we are living in a simulation"</p>
<p>
the sim argument... he does believe that...</p>
<p>
how about the fact that they CANT DO IT... he never address that!</p>
<p>
color... HD; Adam is never in it...</p>
<p>
Glitches in the sim...</p>
<p>
one guy sees pixels in the BR mirror! </p>
<p>
he switches camera angles every few minutes (uses two cameras)...</p>
