How can I prove that everything I see really exists and isn’t just an illusion/ image created by my brain? How can I really know that once I look away from something that it is still there and doesn’t turn black? I thought about the mirror, but maybe the image in the mirror is also just created. The people I hear talking behind me could also be gone but I only hear the audio and once I turn around they appear visually. I thought about using a camera but the content that is saved on the camera could also be fake.

Can someone tell me how to prove that others really exist?

How can I really know that people are responding to this question and not only AI? I have absolutely no proof that this forum could be real. Look at ChatGPT.

I have so many questions.

    I love the movie Inception, but the “fans” of it drive me crazy because (for a very long time, at least) nobody seemed to get that this here was the point of Cobb’s arc. Everyone was debating what was “real” and what wasn’t, but completely missed what the character himself figured out and came to peace with.

      I think I need to watch it again, I didn’t really understand it the first time. Thanks for the reminder! :)
