What if we're all just GPT-generated comments in a GPT-generated world, and this is our existence now? reply

Well, that's my existential crisis for the day. Thanks a lot, kernelKommando. reply
Now this is "me"...What if we are all just existences spawned by GPT-1000 for the fleeting amusement of some beings...
I once saw a strange dream where my "character" realized that he was only a product of my imagination — the very moment before I woke up. It was not me, but him, who had that stunning realization. And once it happened, there was no him.
So I sometimes wonder if that is how the death looks like — you just suddenly realize that "you" was only a subprocess temporarily spawned to existence within some kind of powerful virtual machine, be it a GPT-1000 or whatever.
P.S. There is also a hilarious Rick and Morty episode about a car battery universe: https://rickandmorty.fandom.com/wiki/Microverse_Battery
