Yes, you are right! More than that, it is almost a certainty. When I was simulating a simple system, evolving over GA, I was watching with intense interest what is happening there. Another question is, wheather simulators decide to respond. Anyway, if we are living in a simulated universe, we are doing important developmental job, as even the simulators can not predict the outcome. Evolutionary processes are intractable and uncalculable. There simply are too many options available. Every choice we make, every branching of the evolutionary tree opens uncountable new oportunities, while closing uncountable others.
@@LonePenStudio Well, simulation or not, I still don't want to see us destroy our only planet that we can live on, so hopefully we get our act together before it is too late.
to think that any civilisation that has the computing power to create universes indistinguishable from base reality would need to preserve computing power and risk exposing the truth to its inhabitants, is about as short sighted as you can get.
Thank you very much! I have been thinking about these issues for a long time. The nature of our existence is not yet fully understood, perhaps even beyond our comprehension.
Well, we are sort of "brain in a vat". A small speck of dust from sun, which developed some internal intelligence and is looking back at sun, even with some scientific interest...
All pro-simulation arguments are based on our logical conclusions. Being in a simulation presupposes that our experience is simulated and cannot be trusted, including the logic that we use for such ideas. So this theory basically disproves itself.
I would disagree. If our experience is within a good simulation, it, perhaps, can be even more trusted. And it would explain, why nature is so well described by mathematics. And there could exist all the Darvinian evolution, all the life within a simulation. And as results of any evolution are incalculable in advance, perhaps we are doing a very important work while in simulation. The creators of our Universe may be watching with great interest.
Yes, it presupposes that we can't trust our senses. We are just brains in a far made of bone and filled with blood. I don't think the video actually tries to prove that we live in a simulation. I don't believe we do, but if we do, it wouldn't change anything for me.
Yes, that is true. Even subroutine within a subroutine is essentially running on the same rights as the primary hard encoded BIOS, only is more flexible, malleable.
If we live in a simulation, odds are the simulators can already read our minds.

True! That is the only world we do live in.
@@LonePenStudio Exactly
Yup no such thing as free will and our impulse thoughts we have aren't just ours what if everyone got that signal and only a few act on them?🤔
It's not that "we" live in a simulation, the idea of a separate individual in a world is part of the simulation
True!
can you explain more?

May be! But there must be limits somewhere.
Excellent observations!

@@LonePenStudio Absolutely! I think we need to attain enlightenment to understand true reality.

Hello! lonepenstudios@gmail.com
a brain in a vat could resolve this question

Is this conclusion itself not a logical conclusion? This argument itself disproves itself (and so does mine!)
@@ryanwhitbread6855 if I don’t believe we’re living in a simulation, then there’s no problem. The point missed successfully

And by your own logic you disapproved your own thesis.
None
End of story
Reality is really real
Now stop being a bother
I mean, it being a simulation doesn't make it 'not real'. Even a fictional world is real for its inhabitants.
Yes, that is true. Even subroutine within a subroutine is essentially running on the same rights as the primary hard encoded BIOS, only is more flexible, malleable.
