My subjective anticipation is mollified by the thought that I’ll probably either never experience dying or wake up to find that I’ve been in an ancestral simulation.
This feels very close to my moral intuitions, but I cognitively believe very strongly that things can be bad even if there are no observers left to regret that they happened. That follows logically from the moral intuition that people suffering where you can’t see is still bad.
...is that a natural moral intuition? I don’t think so. That could explain the dissonance.
