We are living in a simulation movie#

You can think of it like a high resolution or high-fidelity video game in which we are all characters, and the best way to understand it within Western culture is the movie The Matrix, which many people have seen, or even if they haven’t seen, it’s become a cultural phenomenon now beyond the film industry. The simulation hypothesis is the modern equivalent of an idea that’s been around for a while, and it is the idea that the physical world that we live in, including the Earth and the rest of the physical universe, is actually part of a computer simulation. Pretend I know absolutely nothing about the “simulation hypothesis.” What the hell is the simulation hypothesis? Rizwan Virk So I reached out to Virk and asked him to break it down for me.Ī lightly edited transcript of our conversation follows. I know nothing about computer science, but this idea that we’re all characters in an advanced civilization’s video game is, well, kind of awesome. Rizwan Virk, a computer scientist and video game designer, published a 2019 book, The Simulation Hypothesis, that explores Bostrom’s argument in much greater detail and traces the path from today’s technology to what he calls the “Simulation Point,” the moment at which we could realistically build a Matrix-like simulation. It’s a difficult argument to wrap your head around, but it makes a certain amount of sense. We can’t know for sure which of these is the case, Bostrom concludes, but they’re all possible - and the third option might even be the most probable outcome.

In an influential paper that laid out the theory, the Oxford philosopher Nick Bostrom showed that at least one of three possibilities is true: 1) All human-like civilizations in the universe go extinct before they develop the technological capacity to create simulated realities 2) if any civilizations do reach this phase of technological maturity, none of them will bother to run simulations or 3) advanced civilizations would have the ability to create many, many simulations, and that means there are far more simulated worlds than non-simulated ones.

Yet there are plenty of smart people who are convinced that this is not only possible but perhaps likely.
