i think the comparison to animals is a really good one, because we sort of understand thato or the amount of empathy that we have for animals. And so what this raises for me is that we could eventually end up in a situation where there are like, vast cultural disagreements about witch agents inside, you know, whether it's ok to kill bad guys. I am not forward to that argument.
We spend more time in digital, virtual spaces than ever. But are those places really real? If they are, does that mean we could be living in virtual reality right now? Or does it even make sense to ask such a question? Philosopher David Chalmers joins Adam to talk about consciousness, the nature of reality, and the limits of digital technology.
