Robert Nozick, Anarchy, State Utopia - The Experience Machine - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosopher, Robert Nozick's book Anarchy, State, and Utopia

Specifically it examines his discussion of the "Experience Machine", in which Nozick proposes a thought experiment involving a machine that would allow a person to have any experiences they choose, for an entire lifetime if they wish. He also brings up the possibility of other machines, including a Transformation Machine and a Results Machine. The key question is whether a person would use these machines or not - and why.
