How likely is it that synths, like in Fallout 4, will become a real possibility following the rise of AI?
I’m somewhat of a tin foil hat enthusiast, not going to lie.
Just with the fact that there are conspiracies regarding cloning of people or celebrities, I always wonder if synthetic people could eventually or have already become a reality.
What if scientists with connections to rich and powerful people have already found ways to create fake humans that can bleed, cry, and feign emotions and other human functions just to maintain a narrative?
How would we know the difference without essentially killing the person like in Fallout 4 to see if they die as a robot?
Could this relate to uncanny valley in some aspect?
