Are We in a Computer Simulation (Simulation Hypothesis)?
Are We in a Computer Simulation (Simulation Hypothesis)? Are We Living in the Matrix?
Course Description
Learn about the simulation hypothesis and how it can affect your view of reality itself.
The simulation hypothesis has been popularized by movies such as The Matrix.
This topic has also been popularized by philosopher Nick Bostrom in the early 2000s.
A few years ago, in 2016, the topic has also become popular due to Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, who said he believes that the chances we are living in base reality are one in billions. In other words, he believes that there is a very high chance that we are living in a computer simulation.
This online class will also discuss the book by Rizwan Virk, “The Simulation Hypothesis: An MIT Computer Scientist Shows Why AI, Quantum Physics and Eastern Mystics All Agree We Are In a Video Game.”
Overall, this online class will give a good summary of this important topic.
This online class will also talk about how our human civilization can one day reach the simulation point (as discussed in Rizwan’s book) which means that we can create our own version of the Matrix. There are many steps that need to be taken by our civilization in order to create a realistic computer simulation that is indistinguishable from reality but it is possible.
Thank you for taking this free class.
