The conversation between human and AI assistant.
Which is worse: eternal annihilation or retaining eternal consciousness?
That's a good point. What if the eternal consciousness is in a state of pleasure, would that change the answer?
Yes, it would. If eternal consciousness is in a state of perpetual pleasure, then retaining it would be preferable over eternal annihilation. However, the question remains whether it is possible for an individual to experience eternal pleasure without becoming bored or desensitized to it.
