It’s fine. I got my answer: you have no idea why you want to live, no value commitments of any kind, and apparently zero interest in anyone or anything but yourself.

Thanks for the answer. I hoped for something less cynical, but the truth is what it is.

I see we’ve reached the end of your programming. Got an error code.

Hey, you’re the mindless husk here. I don’t expect you to do anything purposeful. Rationality is for losers amirite?

That wouldn’t be enough to cover care for dementia, meaning someone else will be footing that bill if you get sick. You’re deluded and narcissistic.

This conversation has convinced me that you already have dementia.

Keeping your mindless body alive helps the economy just fine. What it doesn’t help is your loved ones or hungry children or the rainforest or whatever it is that you care about — which I’m now realizing is nothing. You care about nothing but your own self.

It sounds like you haven’t heard of insurance. It’s not free. Someone has to pay for it. And afterwards, that money has to be wasted doing exactly what I described.

Here’s how your answer sounds to me:

“I would rather pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to waste people’s time wiping my ass than help future generations and my loved ones by passing away with my mind still intact at a moment of my choosing.”

Who is paying for your nursing home??

Do you already have dementia?

This is circular. If you had dementia, you wouldn’t like living, because you’d be a zombie, and even if you did still like living (doubtful), you’d be an enormous burden on those you love.
