About to go to bed and I've been thinking, if you had the choice of becoming omniscient under the condition of permanent immortality, would you take it?

It'd be like playing AOE2 on cheat mode.

It'd be cheating at life but still fun.

Yeah, imagine finally getting rid of the evil forces for good all while knowing the best strategies for least amount of casualties.
Hell, maybe even no casualties, and the best methods of building nations into 1st world standards.

No you get more and more crippled with age, you just cant die. Slowly rotting until your cold ashes crumble to the ground and there you stay knowing everything forever. enjoy.

From my prespective, it's more about the pursuit of knowledge than anything else.

Your body can never receive permanent damage, you'll still feel the pain though.

What's the point of pursuing knowledge if you'll keep it to yourself?
You should use all the immense knowledge you've been gifted to build society into even newer heights.

Not claiming that I wouldn't, rather merely stating I'm only entertaining this line of thought from that point of view rather than "this is what'll help save society".

Think about it more dimensionally.
This level of knowledge doesn't just go into literature and philosophy, it covers all kinds of sciences, perhaps even branches of science that haven't been discovered or harnessed yet.
Just imagine how much better the world, no, the solar system would be if you used your knowledge to lead humanity into prosperity.

This is what I truly desire.

This is an added by-product.

I don't know about omniscience, but I'd take immortality.
Omniscience would kind of ruin it, imo.

Also, good nite

living forever seems like an upside but I don't know about it. Humans are designed to live for several decades. What happens once you have lived for thousands of years and you can't find anything new or interesting to do. And what happens when all your loved ones and friends die, just for you to still be there to think about it. And you can get more friends but they will die too. I feel like after so long you would go crazy
