...So can the taste of an orange without a real orange. People can be faked with CGI. In the future it may be possible for people to be able to be faked with robots. Something being able to be simulated in some fashion doesn't automatically discount the possibility of a real instance. Hell now and days murder reenactments happen all the time. The murderer doesn't get off just because the events have been simulated in CGI.
Not exactly taking a side here but I've seen this argument a lot and it just never swayed me. I mean by this logic the millions of toy guns should cancel out the real ones. Cause something that can be faked can't be real apparently... for some reason.... that doesn't make sense at all.
