A theory that has been gaining widespread acceptance among scientists is the simulation hypothesis. This theory assumes that the universe and everyone it are a computer generated simulation.
Yes, the simulation theory has become popular with the development of highly realistic video games, and it does not answer the ultimate question about what the base reality is.
The idea of a series of simulations within simulations sounds a lot like “turtles all the way down”.
“all models are wrong but some are useful”
“gi-go”
Simulations are only accurate as the extent and capabilities to process the infinity and totality of data.
Currently its still limited and the body of knowledge have not be exhaustively discovered in order to be accurately included as part of the data in the simulation.
“Quantum Computing” all the rage is a theoretical simulation. People in that business, try to pass it off as “real” quantum mechanics-- as if they understand or can prove Quantum theories to begin with. It’s just a invented model, constructed with patented qbits. The same theorists tend to think everything is a simulation–they want their AI patents to make money. it’s like a Quantum Ponzi Scheme.
Life is illusory but it’s causes and effects are not simulations.
Isn’t “turtles all the way down” where most of it ends up anyway? Everything goes off into infinity where we can’t comprehend. Incidentally, the fundamental geometry of this universe is measured in irrational numbers. More infinity.
