Hive account@thegreatavi The exact thought that came to mind when I was writing this was the Elon Musk interview where they ask him,

if we are living in a real life matrix and what is the probability that somewhere along the line a race of beings like us created a virtual reality game that is so realistic it's indistinguishable from reality and we are actually the players of the game and don't know it.

And this is how Musk responded:

If that is true then it just means we are the VR of someone else's reality and they are the VR of someone else's reality as well. So the question that arises is "when and how will we create our own West World where Bernard can think he is human too?" I think the answer to when is now, and the answer to how is companies like TriForce.
