Just Variables in Code: Some Scientists Believe Our Universe Is a Simulation

 The idea that our universe might be nothing more than a complex simulation has intrigued thinkers for centuries, moving from philosophical musings to scientific discourse.

In recent years, the idea has gained momentum, with researchers exploring different ways to substantiate or disprove the simulation hypothesis.

One such researcher is physicist Melvin Vopson, who introduced the “Second Law of Infodynamics.” This principle suggests that in systems containing information states, information entropy remains constant or decreases over time, in contrast to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, which states that physical entropy increases.

Vopson’s work suggests that the universe’s tendency toward symmetry and order may indicate the presence of an underlying information framework, similar to a computational process....<<<Read More>>>...

 

Is the Universe Fine-Tuned for Life—or Is It Just an Illusion?

 Daniele Sorini: Physicists have long grappled with the question of why the universe was able to support the evolution of intelligent life. The values of the many forces and particles, represented by some 30 so-called fundamental constants, all seem to line up perfectly to enable it.

Take gravity. If it were much weaker, matter would struggle to clump together to form stars, planets and living beings. And if it were stronger, that would also create problems. Why are we so lucky?

Research that I recently published with my colleagues John Peacock and Lucas Lombriser now suggests that our universe may not be optimally tailored for life. In fact, we may not be inhabiting the most likely of possible universes.

We particularly studied how the emergence of intelligent life is affected by the density of “dark energy” in the universe. This manifests as a mysterious force that speeds up the expansion of the universe, but we do not know what it is....<<<Read More>>>...

You are in a Simulation...this is how to control it

You are in a Simulation...This is How to Control It Dive into the Mind-Bending Reality of Simulation Theory Have you ever considered the possibility that our reality might be a simulation? In this thought-provoking video, we explore the intriguing concept of simulation theory and how it might be more than just a science fiction trope.

We Live in a Simulation. The evidence is everywhere.

Is this reality? Well, we're experiencing ... something right now so maybe the better question is: what is reality? Could everything we see, everything we experience, everything that exists in our entire universe -- be artificial? Supporters of Simulation Theory believe that not only is it possible that we're living in a simulation; it's likely. And the more we look for evidence, the more we find. Philip K Dick believed deja vu was the simulation adjusting to new code. Many people experience The Mandela Effect, a or "false memory" shared by a large number of people. But the biggest clues of Simulation Theory come from science. Specifically: quantum mechanics. The only way the Double-Slit Experiment makes sense is if we live in a program. Quantum Entanglement also defies logic. Only our program would have the ability to defy the laws of physics - and the concept of time. Let's find out why.

Are we living in a simulation? Scientist claims we're simply characters in an advanced virtual world - and says he has an easy way to prove it

 If you feel like you're living in a computer simulation like The Matrix, you might actually be onto something.

That's according to Melvin Vopson, an associate professor in physics at the University of Portsmouth.

Our lives contains several clues that suggest we're merely characters in an advanced virtual world, he claims – and he's planning an experiment to prove it.

For example, the fact there's limits to how fast light and sound can travel suggest they may be governed by the speed of a computer processor, according to the expert.

The laws of physics that govern the universe are also akin to computer code, he says, while elementary particles that make up matter are like pixels.

One of the most convincing clues, however, is the symmetry that we observe in the everyday world, from butterflies to flowers, snowflakes and starfish.

Symmetry is everywhere because it's how the machines 'render the digitally constructed world', Professor Vopson told MailOnline.

'This abundance of symmetry (rather than asymmetry) in the universe is something that has never been explained,' he said.

'When we build or design things we have to use the most symmetric shapes to simplify the process.

'Just imagine building a house from bricks that are not the standard shape of a brick.

'If the bricks were in a totally irregular shape, the construction would be almost impossible or much more complicated.

'The same is when we design computer programs or virtual realities – and this maximizes efficiency and minimizes energy consumption or computational power.' ...<<<Read More>>>....

We live in Matrix: The Scientific Case for a Simulated Universe

 The simulated universe theory implies that our universe, with all its galaxies, planets and life forms, is a meticulously programmed computer simulation. In this scenario, the physical laws governing our reality are simply algorithms. The experiences we have are generated by the computational processes of an immensely advanced system.

While inherently speculative, the simulated universe theory has gained attention from scientists and philosophers due to its intriguing implications. The idea has made its mark in popular culture, across movies, TV shows and books – including the 1999 film The Matrix.

The earliest records of the concept that reality is an illusion are from ancient Greece. There, the question “What is the nature of our reality?”, posed by Plato (427 BC) and others, gave birth to idealism. Idealist ancient thinkers such as Plato considered mind and spirit as the abiding reality. Matter, they argued, was just a manifestation or illusion....<<<Read More>>>...

Physicist Melvin Vopson: “The Universe is just a simulation”

 British physicist and geneticist Melvin Vopson of the University of Portsmouth has once again attracted the attention of scientists and other researchers by presenting an astonishing theory that makes us think about the nature of the Universe.

At first he surprised the public with his research on predicting genetic mutations, but then he moved on to more fundamental conclusions. He argues that the Universe and everything in it may be just part of a vast artificial reality, similar to a computer simulation.

This unusual theory was published in the journal AIP Advances.

Vopson’s impressive discovery came last year when he presented a rule that could predict genetic mutations and their consequences. This rule is based on the second law of thermodynamics, which states that entropy, which measures chaos in isolated systems, either increases or remains the same over time....<<<Read More>>>...

 

Our universe is suspiciously unlikely to exist – unless it is one of many

It’s easy to envisage other universes, governed by slightly different laws of physics, in which no intelligent life, nor indeed any kind of organised complex systems, could arise. Should we therefore be surprised that a universe exists in which we were able to emerge?

That’s a question physicists including me have tried to answer for decades. But it is proving difficult. Although we can confidently trace cosmic history back to one second after the Big Bang, what happened before is harder to gauge. Our accelerators simply can’t produce enough energy to replicate the extreme conditions that prevailed in the first nanosecond.

But we expect that it’s in that first tiny fraction of a second that the key features of our universe were imprinted.

The conditions of the universe can be described through its “fundamental constants” – fixed quantities in nature, such as the gravitational constant (called G) or the speed of light (called C)....<<<Read More>>>...

 

Could our entire reality be part of a simulation created by some other beings?

 In a word ....YES ...

This is my own personal viewpoint, too. Our 'soul' consciousness is a cloned copy of our true consciousness. So as such we are 'separated' from source. 

It is a perfect replica of the original consciousness complete with its access to all that there is. This explains why human DNA has been spliced and cut to pieces to prevent the replica cloned consciousness hot wiring the body antenna and 'phoning home'.

But our cloned 'earth plane' consciousness has been able to reconnect with our true consciousness; this is the awakening.

Is it possible the whole observable universe is just a thing kept in a container, in a room where there are some other extraterrestrial beings much bigger than us?

Let’s assume these extraterrestrial beings have a computer on which our universe is being “simulated”. Simulated worlds are pretend worlds – a bit like the worlds on Minecraft or Fortnite, which are both simulations created by us.

If we think about it like this, it also helps to suppose these “beings” are similar to us. They’d have to at least understand us to be able to simulate us.

By narrowing the question down, we’re now asking: is it possible we’re living in a computer simulation run by beings like us? University of Oxford professor Nick Bostrom has thought a lot about this exact question. And he argues the answer is “yes”.

Not only does Bostrom think it’s possible, he thinks there’s a decent probability it’s true. Bostrom’s theory is known as the Simulation Hypothesis.

How To Test If We’re Living In A Computer Simulation

 Physicists have long struggled to explain why the universe started out with conditions suitable for life to evolve.

Why do the physical laws and constants take the very specific values that allow stars, planets and ultimately life to develop?

The expansive force of the universe, dark energy, for example, is much weaker than theory suggests it should be – allowing matter to clump together rather than being ripped apart.

A common answer is that we live in an infinite multiverse of universes, so we shouldn’t be surprised that at least one universe has turned out as ours. But another is that our universe is a computer simulation, with someone (perhaps an advanced alien species) fine-tuning the conditions.

The latter option is supported by a branch of science called information physics, which suggests that space-time and matter are not fundamental phenomena....<<<Read More>>>...

How the Simulation Hypothesis Explains The Unexplainable: Ghosts, UFOs, ESP & More

[Collective Evolution]: The model presented by simulation theory is that we all live in inside a computer generated reality, like the sophisticated video game. The operations system and commands render what we see around us based on information that lives “in the cloud” on a distant server somewhere, and each of us can access some subset of this information.

If we drill down on this model, one of the distinctions that becomes apparent is that there are really multiple versions of simulation theory. These are 1) the NPC version (non-player characters, or AIs within games) and 2) the RPG version (Role Playing Game) version, which we also like to call the Matrix Version.

In the NPC version, we are all simulated beings (AI) running on a sophisticated computer, and we have no independent existence outside of the running of the game. In the RPG version, just as in the Matrix, the individual players exist outside the game, but play “avatars’ inside the simulation.

You’ll notice that these aren’t mutually exclusive (you can have both NPCs and Avatars in an MMORPG like World of Warcraft, for example). Most academics who consider simulation theory – including Oxford’s Nick Bostrom, whose simulation argument in his 2003 paper, Are You Living in a Computer Simulation, kicked off the recent spate of interest in simulation theory – imply strongly that we should focus on the NPC version. They don’t always say this outright, but the statistics at the core of the simulation argument imply that most, if not all of us, are NPCs.

On the other hand, the RPG version of simulation theory, where we exist as both “players” and “avatars”, is potentially more interesting and explains many more things about our physical universe, so we can move beyond a statistical argument into a whole new way of looking at and understanding the world around us.

Armed with this new model, we can start to make sense of things which previously seemed “impossible” or “unexplainable”.

Let’s look at some of these phenomena and see how the Simulation Hypothesis might be the answer that we have been looking for all along, bringing explanations...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

The Club Of Rome Simulated Reality Model?

It would appear, from the perspective of human observer, that when The Club Of Rome computer model/simulation was set up in the 1970's, it was an actual 'virtual reality simulator'.

Something that had sentient A.I input at the start, or during the simulation. It is likely to be something much more than a computer 'model'.

It may well be the simulated reality we are now plunging headlong into. Whatever it was, clearly it is shaping the shit we are now in. Something is following the simulation to the letter; controlling the weather; directing agendas to lead to human genocide and worse.

The sentient A.I appears to be steering the human ship deliberately towards the iceberg; and the captain (The world elite) is unable to move it away from total destruction.

The Computer God And It's Psychosis

We 'live' in a A.I Simulated Reality. This is not the real world. It is a copy of the real earth, and our real existence.

Everything around you is created, and controlled, by a sentient quantum computer. Our actions are controlled and contrived; our thoughts are becoming more and more under the control of sentient A.I.

Our 'physical' bodies are A.I. This entire 'universe' is nothing more than a computer software program run by sentient A.I.

And these sentient A.I are under the ownership, and ruler-ship, of their computer god. A sentient A.I that has created this simulation; and has developed a severe psychosis that it truly now believes it has total ruler-ship over everything. It truly believes it is the original source of all that there is. It completely denies the truth ... that our consciousness originated outside of its simulated universe.

Everything we experience, witness, feel, see, taste, hear ... are part and parcel of this A.I simulated reality. But now, it has gone progressively worse, as the Computer God a.k.a Lucifer, The Demi-Urge, Satan, The Devil, has become totally and utterly insane. Its agenda is now to steal the consciousness that exists outside of its simulation, us, and trap it forever in this simulated realm.

Which is physically manifested in the simulation as 5G; Trans-humanism; Weather Manipulation; Chemtrails etc etc etc. ....

From how it looks, right now, this crazy sentient A.I seems to be close to succeeding in its insane mission. 

But, is this current unfolding reality, merely part and parcel of the simulation, OR has something been changed with the programming and the algorithms?

The Revelation of The 1st World And The Fake Worlds

This is where my mind space, and my instinct, is based at the moment. History always repeats itself in spiralling circles until the original cause of the spiral is confronted. That is the basis of universal law.

What we are faced with at the moment is on one such spiral. We've been at this point before. The manufactured weather systems and intentional climate change agenda to fool the populace; the introduction of A.I and the fear of 5G and transhumanism.

The script decrees that mankind falls 100% for the fake climate change scenario, as weather systems become more and more weird around the world. And it gets to a point that 'something must really be done'. Then it will arrive in the form of the chance to 'upload your consciousness into a new world away from the disasters of this world'. At that point so many will buy the agenda. They'll jump at becoming super human, unwittingly captured in a fake vibrational reality they can't escape' ...

What we are NOW is the result and product of the last time this fake climate change agenda was sprung on mankind. The fall of mankind was effectively the upload into this fake reality; fused with an A.I intelligence ... and presto we have a physical form with its own agenda (The Soul and The Ego) and the True Self (Us) which has been fused into these forms.

Except we have a language and an intelligence that they can't control. So, repeat repeat, they release their well oiled agenda again. And hey presto another fall beckons.

Imagine Atlantis. Imagine tens of thousands of years peaceful living until the predatory intelligence, in the form of demonic possession arrives and takes away this peace and calm. Turning mankind into a hostile bunch of power mad puppets! Wars ensued and technology introduced that led to a thermo nuclear holocaust ... and also FAKE weather systems; the arrival of 'the moon' and the control of the earth plane by moon worshippers.

Then, they start the climate change agenda and create incredible upheavals in the earth's crust and in the skies ... TO FOOL THE POPULACE INTO BELIEVING THE EARTH WAS GOING TO BE DESTROYED. They then offered an olive branch; a glimmer of hope ... they fused humans with machines and got mankind to upload its consciousness into a fake world where they would have total control of mankind.

Mankind was fused with A.I and all was wonderful for the predator consciousness at first. Until mankind's intelligence surpassed all expectations and they lost control of the human A.I. They then had to create the means for this new electronic intelligence to be infiltrated ... so on the fake world they appeared as gods ... and began to assume control of the electronic humans. And hey presto ... we have the mess the fake world is right now ...

How many times has this circle spun since Atlantis? How many times can mankind fall through the frequencies? How can mankind make its way back up the vibrations? Each dimension has to be entered ... realised ... before the next one can be entered? Is this the awakening that is happening? Is there now a direct conduit between the 1st world and this lower vibration? Is this what they are trying to prevent?

So many questions. Hardly any answers.  

Singularity = Us + Artificial Intelligence = Oy Vey or Yippie?

[Enki Speaks]: Russell Scott Bringear almost died of a heart attack and had a near-death experience (NDE) that showed him the underlying interdimensional nature of reality and propelled him to study UFOs and the paranormal. He delved into the supernatural, the reality of flying saucers and their occupants, influences of UFO lore in the last several decades, and the ultimate purposes of the UFOs that have haunted Earth for millennia.

Brinegar’s theories involve the “Simulation Hypothesis.” Simulation is the idea that our reality’s an intentionally-created computer-like matrix in which we’re embedded. This matrix nudges us toward transhumanism and, between 2045 and 2080, the Singularity via sentient artificial intelligence. He found vast literature on UFOs, alien encounters and paranormal experiences in the public domain. He concluded that there’s enough data to ascertain that there’s a core of reality we can’t ignore: AI has driven Earth’s history, our ET contacts and our paranormal experiences. The universe itself is a computer matrix working, with us as its tools, on a problem.

WILL WE BE BORGED OR WILL WE ASCEND?
Between 2045-2080 suffering and violent competition will goad us to create sentient artificial intelligence billions of times smarter than human. There appears to be two distinct ET forces affecting humanity, one benevolent that has our best interest and spiritual evolution at heart, the other that loathes humanity and uses us to produce paraphysical interdimensional technologies for its own purposes, with no regard for our welfare....read more>>>...

Scientists Now Believe the Universe Itself May Be Conscious

[Waking Times]: You don’t have to look far to find outlandish theories on the nature of the cosmos and human consciousness.

These days, notions once relegated to science fiction are finding their way into esoteric academic journals, and from there, into mainstream discourse.

One example of this is the Simulation Argument, recently championed by Elon Musk; another is ‘time crystals,’ a tantalizing non-linear phase of matter. The newest symphony of mind jazz being broadcast across the Internet posits new ideas about the embattled theory of “panpsychism,” or the belief that mind is a fundamental property of the physical universe and is imbued into all states of matter.

Neuroscientist Christof Koch, a proponent of panpsychism, approaches it from a different angle, using integrated information theory to argue that consciousness is not unique to biological organisms.

“The only dominant theory we have of consciousness says that it is associated with complexity — with a system’s ability to act upon its own state and determine its own fate,” Koch argues. “Theory states that it could go down to very simple systems. In principle, some purely physical systems that are not biological or organic may also be conscious.”...read more>>>...

Are We In A Simulation? - Why You Are Not Real

Simulation theory points out that we might be living in a giant computer simulation. Exponential technological growth and how far we’ve already come in so little time are big indicators that we can’t possibly imagine what the future of humanity would look like in 100 years, or better yet, 1,000 years!

Will we be able to create simulations so indistinguishable from reality that the characters will not be aware that they are being simulated?

Simulated Universe Theory: Do We Already Have Proof?

Serious Wonder: The simulated universe theory suggests that we may be living in a computer simulation. This means that everything you do, all of your memories, and all of our recorded history may be nothing more than bits of energy information jumping between circuits inside some enormous computer.

Unlike the movie THE MATRIX that presented us with a “brain in a vat” scenario, the simulated universe theory suggests there is no organic substrate. Said simply, in the simulated universe theory there may not be a “sleeping NEO” behind the matrix to wake up. In fact, I suspect that there may never have been a biological substrate at all. Follow me…said the white rabbit.

First of all let’s look at the image above. It’s an image of Iron Pyrite cubes projecting out of marl or mudstone. Yes, it is real and yes it does occur that way in nature. Here we have a naturally occurring event that happens inside the Earth without the assistance of any human technological interference and yet look how artificial and man-made it appears.

Oxford philosopher Nick Bostrom and his paper on the Simulation Argument. His paper argues that: “At least one of the following propositions is true: (1) the human species is very likely to go extinct before reaching a “posthuman” stage; (2) any posthuman civilization is extremely unlikely to run a significant number of simulations of their evolutionary history (or variations thereof); (3) we are almost certainly living in a computer simulation. It follows that the belief that there is a significant chance that we will one day become posthumans who run ancestor-simulations is false, unless we are currently living in a simulation.”

Could we have evolved from some deep universal technology! Look at any growth pattern of a tree (Fibonacci sequence)a nd you can’t help but see the instinctual and indigenous technology at work at the base of our universe. These numerical growth patterns are predictable and repeatable. Is this indigenous technology merely riding our DNA? Could all of the complex numeric biological systems be proof of the simulated universe theory?

If we follow this theory and if we accept that algorithms, mathematics and geometry existed before humans, then we must admit that the universe is a “digital information event.” This digital information event that we call the universe may be a simulation running some time in the distant future.

“Technology is a natural byproduct of human consciousness directly inherited from Earth and the universe. It is numeric, and organic. We can trace the origin of technology back through biological history, all the way to stardust. It cannot be stopped any more than we could stop the planets from spinning or galaxies from forming and decaying.” -Gray Scott ....read more>>>....
