      Reality is an awful tyrant. No matter how hard one tries, they’ll never be free of its yoke.

      No matter how high you try to rise above yourself or your mortal position, you will never be anything more than a homunculus-in-a-bottle!

      Oh, hear me, God! I demand you answer the cry of my soul! Come to me! Join me! YES! I will no longer be bound to you and your consequences! I’LL FORCE YOU DOWN TO THIS EARTH AND INTO MY BOWELS—YOU HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO BE ABSORBED!

      Later:

      What’s wrong with seeking perfection? Well, speak! What are you, anyway? Do you even have a name? Who the hell do you think you are?!

      Who am I? One name you might have for me is the world, or you might call me the universe, or perhaps God, or perhaps the Truth. I am All, and I am One. So, of course, this also means that I am you. I am the truth of your despair, the inescapable price of your boastfulness. And now, I will bestow upon you the despair you deserve.

      Don’t do this to me. I can’t… I can’t go back. Please stop! I can’t bare to be bound any longer! AHHHHHHH! No! No no no no!

      This despair is reserved for the boastful.

      Just tell me what I was supposed to do!

      You brought this outcome upon yourself.

      What did I do wrong?! What should I have done?!

      [Gate slams shut]

      You simply must have seen the answer with your own eyes.

        That depends how you phrase the question. AI has a tendency to affirm whatever you ask it, so if the question is leading towards a positive answer AI will probably agree with it.

      Why doesn’t he just become an Idealist, listen to Spirit Science, and insist reality isn’t real? Works for the New Agers.
