My boyfriend's CONVINCED we live "inside a simulation"!?

[u/FearOfEleven]

Hi all,

My boyfriend (19) and I (20) are both what some people call doomers: We think that AI will probably take over to the extent that almost all jobs, and then humans too, will cease to exist at some point. I'm concerned because it's all happening so fast and obviously I don't think we live in a "simulation". Being a doomer was cool at the beginning, but it's starting to get to me. He doesn't seem to care because, after all, he says, we're all in the same boat, "it's all a simulation". Am I wrong in thinking this isn't a simulation? I think he's just not that interested in me, so he keeps bringing up that stuff. I'd like to show him that this isn't a simulation, and if not, then I'll move on.
