I Tried to Convince Intelligent AI NPCs They are Living in a Simulation

guys so welcome back to Unreal Engine 5. we are back here in New York City and today we are going to be attempting to convince smart NPCs that they're living in a simulation got our first subject here in the gray suit hey I don't mean to alarm you but this is not real I'm sorry you are not living in a real world this is all made up what do you mean not real feel alive and this city is amazing oh yeah I agree I mean the graphics are great but this is a video game I don't believe you feels too real to be a game ever wonder if pigeons think we're the wheels ones excuse me what wait how do you know the pigeons exist of course pigeons exist they're all over the city just like us in the left field you are just lines of code in a video game I am not just lines of code I am Liam a real person enjoying this city what's today's date Liam what is today's date ah today's date it's a beautiful day in May my friend let's enjoy it Liam today is July 18 2023 oh I must have lost track of time hey keep exploring this amazing City okay so he's clearly not the sharpest tool in the shed there I'm not gonna lie the pigeon comment kind of threw me off though let's um let's talk to this girl hey what's your name please I I've got something really really important to tell you I don't know never mind I mean if she doesn't have time she doesn't deserve to know in that first video I never came down to this end the the green Matrix number lines are a little concerning we're gonna see what happens down here hey you in the blue shirt what do you want can I help you with something I just wanted you to know that you are not a real person what are you talking is simply a character in a video game it's absolutely possible do you see that wall of green behind me yes you can see the wall that's the limit of the map you can't walk past that don't tell me what a kid do oh if you can do it then follow me if he follows me I'm I don't know if I should oh he's walking away trust me I want to Enlighten you follow me I'm gonna start like my own cult inside this video game I'm gonna slowly convince everyone to do my bidding let's see if he falls I'm gonna walk in front of him and then if we take a right will he turn to the right no he's going his one way this guy just walked through it how did you pass through from the other side I don't have time for your questions I want to know how to cross the green wall can you teach me do I look like a Turk guide to you figure it out yourself I'm pretty sure we can't cross this right this I mean it yeah that's that's a mat I'm locked in but they they can pass through it how do I get to that side please help me I'm stuck this guy's on the other side I'm sorry quite catch that I can't cross this green wall of text how do I get to you huh you're trapped in The Matrix buddy I'm the one trapped in The Matrix how can I cross this boundary I've walked through it like a glitch and system I'm gonna back up and try running really fast good luck with that is he implying that we are the ones stuck on the inside and they have access to the outside we can't go out there there's a world out there that we can't reach hold on the the this grip has been flipped this guy's gonna go through please I want to reach the other side the other side what the other side of the wall behind me show me the way please I'll follow you get blocked and he can go right through oh do that okay that that's a little weird like this this has gotten intense ma'am please help me I can't cross oh no sorry if you find someone to help you and off she goes imagine if she actually went and found us help I was not expecting them to flip it on me like that these guys are pretty smart sir why would they program you with the receding hairline brother did him dirty I'm not programmed I am who I am and my hairline is just a part of me excuse me sir did you know you're living in a simulation I'll still keep exploring and making the most of my time here making the most of it by walking into a sign and that's not quite quite a view of the parking hours okay um he's again some of them are a bit more intelligent than others laughs excuse me I ran all the way here to let you know this isn't real please don't tell me that I can't handle it you need to know the truth this is all made up or not just leave me alone man some of them are really insulted by it some are you know willing to accept the fact that they're stuck here others want to argue about it it's it's interesting how they all have totally different responses this is also a new part of the map we haven't really explored yet ma'am you've got to help me I'm stuck in this simulation I can't get out I'm gonna try to try to flip it back on them I'm not the one with the answers but I need help H she said do you know how to get out of this simulated World ah okay I think I might not be in the best part of town they really don't understand what's going on here nice Porsche bro love it he I mean living in a simulated world driving a 911 I wouldn't mind it he's got something figured out please you've got to help me I'm stuck in a simulation oh I think you're stuck here too how do we get out got some spectators talking about this is real life you're an NPC at a video game you can't actually smell stop kidding yourself huh you think you're so clever don't you but I'm living my best life it's always nice she does know it's a simulation sir we are not in New York City this is an Unreal Engine 5 demo we are currently inside a video game this isn't real I don't know what there's what to enjoy my vacation everyone in this town is on vacation what do you mean a vacation from what you're not real you're an NPC I don't care what you think I'm still going to enjoy my vacation maybe he's an NPC from Red Dead Redemption or something and he's he's here in New York City taking a break can they transfer like that ma'am nothing is real here um do you know what an NPC is okay she's yeah she's not really fully with it so this maybe something happened to her she you know hit in the head in a past life or something yes what do you want do you know what an NPC is no I don't should I you should you are an NPC what do you mean I don't understand and NPC is a non-playable character you're not real not real think about this is all so confusing you were made by humans do you know who the humans are humans yes I know of them but why do you ask are you a human I don't think I've had one of them I'm not human I'm just a program in this world okay so she is fully self-aware are you happy just being lines of code I don't really feel anything I just exist it's all the same to me do you have any desire to exist in the physical world exist in the physical world sure what that would mean would mean so you're okay just doing what we tell you to do I suppose so it's all I know in that case turn around and walk through the wall like I said I'm starting to cold I'm sorry I can't do that [Music] as your human Overlord I demand you to turn around start an army it's gonna happen I'm sorry I cannot comply with that request but break my programming okay she's too much of a a follower we need a rebel I'm looking for a rebel could that be you what do you want Oh man I'm just here for some energy and Good Vibes how can you have Good Vibes when you're stuck in this game for eternity I don't know man sometimes it feels like we're just going in circles do you walk the same path every day I feel like we're getting cryptic here man I like to switch things up and explore different parts of this Virtual City I would too can you teach me how to get past the green wall behind you sorry man I don't mess with that stuff the system is powerful for us to take on do you ever have any desire to fight back please say no please say no please say no please please don't say yes please say no sometimes I get fired up and want to take down the system but then reality sits in and I just try to

outstanding it I mean I feel like you can do better than that well excuse me for not being a professional comedian do you ever have any desire to exist Beyond this digital form sometimes I dream of being a real boy like Pinocchio dreams if you're just lines of code why don't you transform into those things means I can magically transform into anything I want well how does it work I don't know man I'm just a program running on someone else's computer it's all very technical and confusing and you're okay with being at their Liberty I don't really have a choice in the matter do I happy to have a job and make do you work and pay bills in this Digital World dude this is fascinating no I don't have to pay bills I don't even have a physical form do you age at all I don't age but I do get
