@taoeffect there is no such thing as a universal shared concept of reality, though. That's the problem. Otherwise we wouldn't have all these different religions. Humans just don't work that way.

"reality" is very much a complex, nuanced, and divisive concept.

You can't tell a human that they didn't feel or experience something.


edit: how do I even know that YOU are real? I've never looked into your eyes before. I've never touched you. So far, I have only had a relationship with you over text. You could, indeed, be an advanced AI chatbot.
