Reality. What is reality? Today in class we read an article titled "Are We Living a Computer Simulation?" This article was based on the theory that the world that we "know" may all just be a simulation. We could just be a version of entertainment for a whole different world. In class Mr. Reiff used the analogy that an intelligence system could become so smart to the point where it can think for itself and believe it was living. What if this is the case? If it were, it would kind of be a relief because that would mean everyday life doesn't matter if it's not real. Then again, it's a scary thought because if this is the case, everything I have come to learn/believe is all a lie. Personally, I don't believe that this true because I think it's all about perception. The way you perceive something is the way that you are going to believe it until you are given a different, convincing reason to change your beliefs. However, there is no definite answer to this question. Reality could just be twisted fantasy.
