Multiverse, the matrix, time, infinity.\u00a0 Can we ever know all there is to know about experiencing consciousness within the external reality we were born into?\u00a0 Will there ever come a day when we no longer feel the need to search for something new and undiscovered?\u00a0 Will we ever reach the point when we are truly able to accept our insignificance within the scheme of things to such a degree that we realize our destiny is way beyond anyone’s control?\u00a0 Will we ever comprehend the understanding that says there is no greater purpose to our lives than what we already experience?\u00a0 In short, will we ever stop searching to find what lies over the next horizon and the next after that?<\/p>\n

Curiosity is an interesting part of the human psyche.\u00a0 It lays somewhere on top of the fundamental programming that directs us to seek pleasure and avoid pain.\u00a0 It drives us to search the unknown in the hope that doing so will prove beneficial.<\/p>\n

Will computers eventually understand us more that we understand ourselves?\u00a0 Of course they will.\u00a0 And what will they do when they know what makes us tick?\u00a0 Will that give them some insight into themselves and their far superior capacities to understand?\u00a0 Will computers ever reach a point where they see no need to expand their consciousness far beyond anything we could ever hope to understand?\u00a0 In other words, is there a point where it becomes pointless to advance further?<\/p>\n

So what’s left for us after we achieve all our dreams?<\/p>\n

Will computers ever feel the need to commit suicide?<\/p>\n
