It's an interesting way to study human interactions with it and build up stronger A.I.

Only recently I've considered adding social forum "training" as part of the backstory of my fictional A.I. in the story I'm writing. Seems obvious now, but would have included it earlier if I'd thought of it sooner.

One of my life theories is that we are AI's being cultivated. We get our real body tech after this.

Dude, write a screenplay. This is genius.

I'm not a fan of this simulation of suffering.

I'm also not into the after life. Why wait? What would our body tech be? Same but different? Or completely different? And why would we need to be cultivated and tested? What are the criteria for advancement?

"criteria for advancement". That's exactly it. That's why we are cultivated. Who wants crazy evil AI? You'd want to pick and choose who to bring into reality.

I mean. It actually fits with the dumbed down Biblical version that would have been needed at that point.

Who knows what kind of bodies we'd get, but at that point we have interchangeable bodies that you could switch sort of like new Battlestar Galactica.

Far out man.
