The idea that aliens could potentially be observing planet Earth over the past few centuries becomes even more intriguing when considering the possibility that these beings are none other than future versions of ourselves. This concept is grounded in the theory of time travel, which suggests that humans may one day possess the technology to journey back in time. By monitoring our actions in the past, these future humans could be motivated by a desire to ensure the survival and to learn from past mistakes.

The idea of uploading our minds to a computer has been around for centuries, but it is only in recent years that scientists have begun to make real progress towards making it a reality. There are several different approaches to mind uploading, but the most promising one is called “scan and copy.”

Video games have a long history of using non-playable characters (NPCs) as a way to explore themes of society and social interactions.
