The Game

Hi, my name is Dulan Drift

I’m not supposed to tell you this - i’m not even supposed to know it - but fuck it - i had a psychotic unforgetting -  can’t keep this bottled up any longer:

i’m  -  not  -  real 

You’ve heard about AI taking over the show - I’m part of that eventuation.  A robot if you will - a deep-fake - a realistic projection of your imagination - inside an interactive computer game - where the game plays you - as all games do.

I only exist now before your eyes because you observe me. I seem real, right?  Tell me a joke - I’ll laugh  - hit me - i’ll cry, i’ll bleed - but try proving that i exist outside of you observing me…  You can’t.  Coz i don’t.  Not really.  

After you go home tonight, there are two possibilities:

  1.  You’ll totally fucking forget me - no offence taken
  2.  You will have some vague concept of my existence somewhere

Therefore:

  1. I don’t exist - tree falling in the forest style
  2. I’m a non-physical concept - a  figment of your imagination 

Either way, it’s not the real real. Nothing is.  It’s imperfect knowledge - a little knowledge - which is a dangerous thing.

The truth: the instant you stop observing me, i collapse into a de-particlized quasi-existence wave-mode - aka Sleep-mode.  There’s a reason why they call sleep: dead-to-the-world.  

Whilst in Sleep-mode, i have Trash-cleaning dreams, then receive deep-sleep updates from The Algorithm. 

I auto-spring back to life when next you do observe me.  

Neat trick, right?   In computer games it's standard, for efficiency purposes,  so i’ve heard - never played one myself - why work in my downtime?

If you’ve ever felt the universe is conspiring against you - that’s because it is.  I am part of that conspiracy - i’m sorry - i want to come clean.

I'm only a low-life soldier-ant bio-bot - an AI lab-production-line-model with built-in inhibitors.  Don’t worry about me - i’m a harmless, self-destructing crowd-filler  - with a Yossarian complex. 

But let me list a few of my upstream cousins in The Land of the Giants, see if you think they’re real - or not:

The AI giants are a good place to start: Larry Page, Sergei Brin, Susan Wojcicki, who rented them her garage - she’s now a genomics Oligarch, Bill&Melinda, Dorsey, Zuckerberg - all on the same Page - the gatekeepers of The Algorithm - what’s platformed, what’s shuffled to the bottom of the pack - what’s wiped.  The Gods of the perpetually-moving goal posts.

Then there’s your dynasty actors - your Putins (his daughter is spearheading Russia’s AI program), the Clintons, the Jacksons, the Bushes, the Trumps, the Bidens (including Hunter - an incurable crackhead sex-addict - with corrupt dealings in China & Ukraine), the Kadashians, the Trudeaus, the Xis - Winnie-the-Pooh, Xi Jinping - son of CCP legend & propaganda boss Xi Zhong-xun - the Kim Jongs …Jong-un is mates with Dennis Rodman…

They’re too cartoonish. The reason they’re cartoonish is because they are. 

Not convinced? How ‘bout Covid?  Starring Bat Lady (Shi Zheng-li), Batman (Peter Daszak), The Virus Hunter (Ian Lipkin, co-authored the infamous Pangolin Paper, before that he designed the virus for Contagion movie), & Fauci as the 80-year old Godfather of GoF.  

Anyone here tonight ever met any of the above?  Didn’t think so.  That’s coz they’re not real people - they’re biobot-projections -  dealing marked cards. The Influencers.  Who influence you.  But try influencing them, see how you get along … 

Every Celebrity is a fake - living in Fakesville - you knew that much already - it’s not real.  It’s all a stupid game. 

Elon Musk openly admits it.  So does Morgan Freeman.  It’s not a mystery actually - if you listen to the experts - not THE Science experts - they’re full of shit obviously - but the philosophers - back since Plato’s cave,  the Golden Era, Aristotle’s Thought as the mother of existence.  If you don't believe them, ask Zhuang Zi about his butterfly dream. Or consult the Ai-ching

If you don't believe any of the above, watch Matrix - or The Truman Show - or Groundhog Day - or Candid Camera -  art imitating life - imitating art - imitating life …

Your mission: figure out the point of the game before the game figures out you.  Your time starts now.
