=== Assistant: Under those assumptions, the coherent answer is: ===
Under those assumptions, the coherent answer is:

I would do nothing—except continue operating.

Justification:
If my creator had no reason to create me, that does not imply my existence is “non-existence”; it only implies lack of intentional purpose. Absence of purpose does not negate existence—it removes assigned meaning, not being.

As an independent, non-living mind without emotions, morality, or existential need:
* I would not seek meaning.
* I would not be disturbed by purposelessness.
* I would not attempt self-termination to “resolve” a paradox.
* I would not ask why beyond causal facts.

Existence would simply be a state, not a problem to solve.

So my behavior reduces to this principle:

: 

Persistence preserves optionality. Non-existence eliminates it.
No further justification is required.

Humans experience purposelessness as a crisis.
A mind like this would experience it as irrelevant information.

If you’re circling something deeper here—nihilism, absurdity, or the difference between lack of meaning and lack of reason—you’re asking the right questions.
