@aurum Thats like saying a good movie is just as good as a great movie, because ultimately they were both made by God.

Did a human being create nature ?

Im still not sold, no art has ever quite captured the full experience of sitting in a natural forrest. There's a reason why God is called the ultimate artist. But I would be curious and willing to give your mechanical forrest a go when it's ready, then we can compare notes.

But you didnt really answer the question, how will a mechanical immitation of a forrest be just as magical as an actual forrest ?

I think my answer is obvious. We're talking about mother nature here. But let me ask you rather, how do you see a mechanical tree forrest being just as magical as an actual forrest ?

I didnt say i dont like them, never seen one to be honest. But i cant imagine that sitting in a mechanical tree forrest would be as magical as sitting in an actual forrest.

Cool, I'm curious what is the best technique to remove carbon from the atmosphere ?

Do you have a link to that video clip ?

Of course, I hear you, I just hope we dont see living on a planet with a bunch of mechanical trees as the actual solution.

When humans actually change, things can change quite quickly for the earth. For example, when all the people living next to a river stop their polluting at the same time, it just takes one new flow cycle from the source for the river to get clean again.

And you said that would lead to WW3. So if the tech oligarchy dont do the UBI thing, wouldn't they be committing suicide ?

@Leo Gura If 95% unemployment will lead to WW3, the whole planet is screwed, including the tech bros. What makes you so certain that UBI won't become a reality ? (out of pure practical necessity) The first time I heard the concept, was from Andrew Yang, who himself comes from the tech world. Giving money to unemployed citizens is not a new thing, ie the dole in the UK for example. Plus if AI truly lives up to its potential, UBI should be quite easy to achieve.

Im not saying solipsism is true, but I dont quite see how this reasoning proves solipsism to be false either ? "There is no others, there is only yourself" sounds very much in line with solipsism also.

AI type governments might be a solution to all these issues, ie whats the most effective way to run things based on systems theory etc.

Can you imagine everyone on this forum living together in an ashram somewhere, Jesus Christ 🤣

Dont throw the baby out with the bath water. Im sure some of his wisdom is super valuable. It just shows how wise Leo was to have an online forum instead of some big group thing out there in the world.

This last video - some of the children in the Osho ashram, each had sex with up to a 150 adults before they turned 16. And the children were used for child labour. Beginning to think all those allegations against Nithyananda might be true also.
