Title: Do You Believe in the Digital Afterlife?
Post by: IndigoRed on July 06, 2018, 03:11:06 AM
Are you a fan of Westworld? Then you’ve already wondered if life in the virtual space is equal to the life in the real world. It even makes you question what it means to be alive. This article I stumbled upon, talks about the show and humanity’s ongoing project to use science and technology to live forever. Then they propose, “what about shedding our bodies in their entirety and living out eternity in The Valley Beyond?” (referring to the virtual paradise used in the TV series)
What do you think? Are you willing to be “digitized” in order to cheat death?

I think it depends on how the process is going to go? Do I have to sacrifice my own life in order to be digitize and "cheat death"? Why try to achieve immortality digitally instead of here in the real world? I do enjoy Westworld but I am not sure if I want to be put into the simulation if it means my physical body dying in the process. Perhaps if there is a way that both can coexist, then I would be 100% okay with this.
