Choose between living life vs in a simulation?

if someone invented a machine that would allow you to live out the rest of your life in a simulated life where all your fantasies come true, would you do it?

Also, once you're in, you'd be ignorant of the fact that you were in a simulation, so the thought that you were living a lie would never cross your mind.

Would such a machine be immoral?

What makes you so sure you aren't already living in a world of representations?

    I like to dream. It's like a simulation. I don't think a machine could match my imagination. I don't think science can be as organically wonderful and thought and dreams when it comes to such a thing.

    The fact that you ask that question is proof positive that you are in fact a simulation.

    You are living in a simulated reality right now, the corporate machine is feeding you at the same time consuming you.

    The one who's always responsible is also the one who chooses the way of living his life..

    The machine is only a device created/operated by the living human creature..
    Like a toy..To fill up the human desires..

    I guess..

    I guess it would be immoral if you're fantasies are immoral.

    morality is based on opinion

    it depends on what was going on in the real world
    plus, how do you know you weren't in it already?

    I would hope that I wouldn't do it. But I might.
