We need "reality discriminants". The trippy thing is if they could exist and their output is not necessarily boolean. There would be a threshold point at which beings can exist along the simulated-real spectrum, were by they can understand the output of the "reality discriminants", yet they are not real.




The way these GAN algorithms work is precisely by building a network that discriminates reality from fake. That's why they become so good at this!
