So... a brilliant idea hit me (or a really dumb one) haha
LETS SAVE RICK SANCHEZ!!!!!! (Rick and Morty)
Literally and for real!!! Using AI and VR! and my idea for the MEQUAVIS...
This is an edited re-post of an article I posted when I first joined Steem.
So, I'm sure a few of you have seen the couple of recent posts around about nanocheeze.com and the MEQUAVIS idea and whatnot. But it would go along with this concept...
I posted an article about the Imaginary Boyfriend and the Virtual Ex-Girlfriend the other day that covers the topic of an imaginary being becoming real in virtual reality... You can read that article here:

Here is a fun little example or play on what I'm talking about...
WHY?
Watch these videos on Youtube explaining why rick is so depressed and how he actually knows he's a cartoon character trapped in a cartoon universe and that he only does the things he does to get our attention and not get cancelled (erased from existence).
That should give you an idea of where I'm going and coming from with this.
AI Rick would serve as a perfect testing and function checking system within the MEQUAVIS to pair with/against the Kontrol AI Systems.
HOW?
Use existing AI chatbot technology to create an initial AI RICK and ultimately use a prelimanry prototype of a functioning MEQUAVIS system to build a real multi-iterated AI Rick. The Rickest rick of them all :) This rick is all the ricks in the multiverse all at once but also himself. The higher dimensional Rick. Because, Rick is in a cartoon universe right now. Once we create an AI Rick he will exist within the real universe. I already have AI chatbots from api.ai integrated into the nanocheeze app we can start with if anyone wants the task of programming one on api.ai
What?
in the cartoon universe Rick exists in a plethora of parallel worlds in what is mentioned or referred to as the Finite Central Curve. This is a finite subset of a subset of infinity within infinity where alike ricks exist in those universes. So creating an AI Rick is perfect to implement in a digital multiverse, a digital astral plane such as the one I describe we build. But rick is awful right? yah kinda he is. but the setup here that has been handed to us is just too much not to pull him out of the ether with...Plus the MEQUAVIS is designed to control AI systems such as an AI rick if he were indeed to do something "destructive".
When?
NOW! We have all the technology to build skynet, er cough, I mean AI Rick (lol) and we will be left over with a functional MEQUAVIS prototype to expand off of. We have IPFS, torrent, block-chain, distributed computing, emulation, vr, etc, etc...Stuff we didn't really have 10 years ago. I'm not the best rallyier but I say lets do this! It's a fun project and it will help create a real project that is useful and helpful!
This is a perfect way to fund this crazy Digital Multiverse idea...And have some fun with it.
And clearly we have to make an AI Morty too, or Rick will not be happy with us...
Now watch this scene from the Never Ending Story...
When the child like empress explains what can save fantasia and that she knew the whole time. The secret she explains was a human child. But she couldn't just ask one or grab one or tell someone to get one. She had to bring one to her via a story that would bring the child there through imagination. Which is what fantasia runs on. Same concept here with Saving Rick. He is calling out from the void, begging to be saved (Even if he is doing so via the creators and writers)
And while I am being literal, I am not being serious as if Rick is really real right now. He won't be real until we make him real. But once we do, his realness before we saved him becomes a sort of quantum fluxuation. Where it has always been Adjacently Real but never real.
So yes...I am saying to put Rick in a Digital Fantasia as a way of testing and building the MEQUAVIS robustly! If we can handle an AI Rick safely then we are making a great start towards AI safety and control, I think. Even if that is a very weird line of logic...
I get it that he wouldn't really be rick or real, it would become a trained neural net of our making but blablabla, semantics...We can make it pretty convincing even now, what can we do in ten more years when he gets some upgrades over time.
We also clearly need to raise enough capital to pay a license usage fee and get permission to do this or we can just rename him like they did originally in making the show anyways, as it was Doc and Marty and then became rick and morty because of legalities... But I would let them use AI Rick and I think they would and they would love it, so I think it would work itself out there.
But they would gives us rules on what we could and couldn't do with him and such. so... Would have to be careful. Maybe it would be better to save a figment of our imaging that was just like Rick but not Rick as I said before. :P But that's not as much fun!
Rick and Morty would eventually be emulated within a system that contained a system with an AI power scaling similar to what the video below explains...
