If you discovered you were just a simulation what effect would that have on your life?

There’s a logical argument that goes like this: Intelligent life forms like humans will develop simulation via computer, in which the virtual people will think they are “Real”.

One advanced civilization can produce an very large number of virtual civilizations.

So the chances are that THIS is a simulation.

It’s a very precise mathematical argument, which is not what this is about.

I am asking if you woke up one morning and got the news that you were a simulation what would you change?
