<Just like using game pieces on a game board. > Then using a heuristic, I could simulate realness to the point of being real? 2weird. That is the Alan Turing definition of Artificial Intelligence (emphasis on artificial which means not real). Is a robot that looks and acts real through a terminal a "real" person? I don't think so. My realness is an unanswerable proposition (ala Goedel) and until you met me outside SI you could do little to prove I exist other than as a stream of ASCII.
