Über diesen Titel

 In the allegory "The Cave", Plato describes a group of people who have lived chained to the wall of a cave all their lives, facing a blank wall. The people watch shadows projected on the wall from objects passing in front of a fire behind them and give names to these shadows. The shadows are the prisoners' reality but are not accurate representations of the real world. The shadows represent the fragment of reality that we can normally perceive through our senses, while the objects under the sun represent the true forms of objects that we can only perceive through reason.

With Deep Learning based image generation, it is possible to “remix” reality, take ideas of the way we would like things to be, and mix them in real-time to create images as though those things were real. In psychagogic lucid dreaming, individuals become aware that they are dreaming and can exert control over the dream narrative, including manipulating the visual aspects of the dream.

History is rebound with examples of our cultures attempting to alter the consensus reality through technology. How will Artificial Intelligence alter how we see reality? How has our society created reality as an emergent shared projection throughout history?
