Parallel dimensions

As ever in history and in the foreseeable future we are on the edge of technology forever moving forward in everything we can do. Technological advances are and always have been that sense of progress within humanity. The thing is we can only feel that we are progressing because we can remember the past, we take satisfaction in the fact that we have come from A to B and satisfaction is based of the past what has happened. Now the future is a whole new kettle of fish. This is what drives us to build the technology, the unknowing, the unexplored and the scary. This, to me is the fun side. This is where you can pretty make up the future based on the past. Take for instance AI (Artificial Intelligence). Its been about for a while but the general consensus is that AI is a man made electrical 'brain'. It is hoped in the future that it will be so advanced that computers will have human emotions, feelings, reactions, and motives. This always got me thinking.

If we ever get to a stage in our existence where the AI is so life like that they could be considered human themselves, then how did we get here. The big bang is one theory and religion has its own but what if there has always been AI so good you cant tell the difference. What if we were living the AI life. What if we have already been created by some other being that has created AI so unrecognizable to its own existence. It would be doing the exact same thing that we are trying to do now except it has already done it and onto something else far more advanced. We would never know, ever. How much agro would that cause within the world nay the universe. It would all be a lie, a big fat lie. You would have to re-write everything, religion, science. What if we were a pet sitting on someone's mantle piece or whatever they would call it. It would put everything in perspective wouldn't it. There you go I've just solved the mystery of life, we are AI. So come join us. Just a thought.
