The female scientist says "The simulator can replicate our world at various levels of detail. Level one presents you as a rudimentary icon" The male scientist looks at the computer screen which shows a blocky image of a man. She continues "Whereas level ten is almost identitical to the real you" The image on the screen looks exactly like the male scientist (i.e. a simple cartoon). "Incredible! What happens at level eleven" says the male scientist pressing a button. "Don't press that!" she cries, too late. "Aaagh!" he screams, terrified. The image of him on the screen is now more detailed/realistic than anything else in the whole cartoon. ALT
