if you still believe in it then you are retarded.
the guy who basically introduced it to physics debunked it a couple of years ago.

It's just a repackaging of philosophical speculations dating back to Plato. Why this has suddenly become such a meme lately has more to do with the zeitgeist of our current culture than anything.

Quantum Mechanics actually very much points away from the idea that we're in a simulation.

It's not just that. There is genuinely a new argument, sound or not, according to which it's much more likely than naively one would assume

It's an absurd argument because, if we are in a simulation, we know nothing about the base reality from which it arises, and we can't say anything about the likelihood that a simulation could or would arise from it.

It's not my argument and I'm not even defending it other than from the accusations that it's just the old "what if dude it's all in my mind I couldn't know lol" argument rehashed. And I'm not going to spoonfeed you anything, fuck off from threads that you aren't willing to educate yourself on the bare basics of.

A much more idiotic thing is saying that this is equivalent to anything Plato said:

>"The fraction of human-level civilizations that reach a posthuman stage (that is, one capable of running high-fidelity ancestor simulations) is very close to zero", or
>"The fraction of posthuman civilizations that are interested in running simulations of their evolutionary history, or variations thereof, is very close to zero", or
>"The fraction of all people with our kind of experiences that are living in a simulation is very close to one"

the real reason why it is absurd is because the ENTIRE thing is based on the assumption of what genuine reality SHOULD look like. We only know about this one, how the fuck could anyone say that because things work a certain way here they must actually be fake, and must be simulated.
