- Do you think if machines could make your life perfect you'd just get bored?
- If I'm bored inside the perfect-life machine, that just tells me that the machine is not working as advertised.
- Obviously not.
- There are neural pathways in my brain that inform my conscious mind it is bored. All the machine has to do is jiggle those neurons appropriately and my conscious mind will experience delight, contentedness, zest for another day.
- Boredom, malaise, ennui all these philosophical arguments against a happiness machine are just bad intuition pumps that are reducible to "you'd be unhappy with a happiness machine if the happiness machine didn't work."
- But if an outside device is directly adjusting your thoughts and emotions, will you even feel like you're you anymore?
- I will if it tells me to!
