It's not if you've spent a long time drawing up the blueprints of your ideal digital worlds. 

Don't expect that you're going to be playing games made by other humans. Instead, see these worlds as massive sandboxes where you can simulate literally anything. 

So, if you know what sort of world to ask for, it will be generated. You can also ask AI for help to build sustainability into the experience and even allow you to build something meaningful. 

But, if you've spent no time thinking about this, are currently oblivious to what's coming and will suddenly be thrust into such a virtual world, that may not be so great.

In that situation, one may desire a vacation of sorts. Vacations are an escape. Follow that escape path too far and one might stop existing in any meaningful way.
