A small koan on utility functions that "refer to the real world".
Question to Clippy: would you agree to move into a simulation where you'd have all the paperclips you want?
Question to humans: would you agree to all of humankind moving into a simulation where we would fulfill our CEV (at least, all terms of it that don't mention "not living in a simulation")?
In both cases assume you have mathematical proof that the simulation is indestructible and perfectly tamper-resistant.
If we move into the same simulation and can really interact with others, then I wouldn't mind the move at all. Apart from that, experiences are the important bit and simulations can have those.
