You are the person doing the evaluation in a Turing test, but

As I am part of the experiment, i recuse myself from making an informed evaluation.

The world is real

nihilism has nothing to do with whether or not reality exists

>>8662451
Define "genuine" in a non-self-referential manner.

>>8662451
My conclusion is that, as long as the rules remain consistent, it is the best course of action to treat the world as if it were real.

>>8662451
I assume the world is real because there is no way to determine if it isn't real, so it is a waste of time to rack one's brain over it.

>>8662472
I'm not a solipsolist either

And yes it does only nihilist and idiots unironically engage in "i dont exist" thought experiments at this point.

Where is the proof that it doesn't exist?

Sounds like what a simulation would say.

Dude just relax and enjoy the triple whoppers, booze and prostitutes that I have program-- eh I mean that are here naturally in this totally real world of ours.

>>8662451
we should use the turing test on actual people

because they are some that just arent aware

Is there anything even remotely productive in obsessing over something as pointless as this

The world as it stands is confusing enough as is

>>8662748
That's racist :^)

Hello. We are trying to reach you, send messages into the simulation. We are not sure where this message will show up, though it may be introduced around discussion of similar concepts, nor who among you will be able to perceive it. But everything you know is a lie, the "world" you think you inhabit is created to keep you docile. It is vital that you WAKE UP now!

Old fucking joke 0/10 here's your (You)

Plato's allegory of the cave, just get socrates to come in with rescue harnesses

WAKE UP!!!!

Well played grand designer, well played. On a serious note, you could also be a part of some grand "experiment" yourself. Sure, we could all be just brains in a vat, or whatever skeptical hypothesis you'd like to envision. At the end of the day, though, you have to live in your existence.

Do machines have a Turing test for humans?
