Nozick's Experience Machine: If Happiness Is All That Matters, Why Not Plug In?

Imagine a machine that could give you any life you wanted. Once connected, you would experience perfect success, deep love, creative achievement, pleasure, admiration, or peace. You could feel as though you had written a masterpiece, raised a family, climbed mountains, changed history, or become the person you always hoped to be. Inside the machine, none of it would feel fake. From your point of view, it would simply be your life.
