How do you know, for sure, that you’re awake and not dreaming right now? ?

like imagine sleep walking or being diagnosed with a sleeping disorder that causes you think you are awake but you are actually sleeping. So you are driving a car, but you are actually sleeping. You are working, but you are actually sleeping. You are cooking, but you are actually asleep.

I’m pretty confident I’m awake and not dreaming because my dreams are much more interesting than being awake.

How do I know my perceived reality isn't a simulation running on a cosmic scale and the "universe" isn't a giant computer operating at a quantum level driven by probability?

[Paradiseequeen]

so whats your reality vs your subconscious

[OneViewpoint]

A probabilistic shift at the quantum level. Next question what causes a probabilistic shift at the quantum level?

How do you know you aren't in the Matrix? How do on know you aren't an AI android?

Don't listen to the simpletons on this site. An extremely famous 17th century French philosopher named, Rene Descartes, wondered the same thing.
He came up with: "Cognito, ergo sum"
"I think therefore I am."

His conclusion still lives on to this very day.

"I fish, therefore I am.
"I eat chocolate, therefore I am.
"I like to golf, therefore I am."

I hope that helps. 😆

I didn't mean to post that on your reply.

[Paradiseequeen]

this actually happened before centuries ago and there are people out here who actually experiences this but don't ever hear about it

[Paradiseequeen]

@kavakava oh no you are fine

I meant to post this to you, and I accidentally posted to someone else.
If you're thinking about subjects this deep, you're obviously an intelligent person.
The philosopher Emmanuel Kant, said that the only truths in the world, are things that are true by definition.

All brown dogs are brown
All red barns are red
All barking dogs bark

You may or may not be surprised at how many stupid people will disagree with this. 🤣🤣

They will say: "what if the barn was originally painted blue?"

😔😔😔😔

If it was once a blue barn and now it's a red barn, it is actually a Red Barn at this point.

I think you you would be well suited to take a philosophy class. Half of your brain will be twisted in half by the complexity of philosophy, and the other half will be laughing at stupid people in the class that think that a red barn isn't red. Where I went to school, philosophy was a prerequisite for taking the logic class.
If these people can't figure out that a Red Barn is red, how could they ever get through a logic class? 🤣
