Ok so are we living in a simulation which just created another simulation? https://m.slashdot.org/story/413212

Ha! This got me thinking about whether it’s possible to simulate versions of reality which are “more realistic” than actual reality.
I am pretty sure that it is, if we interpret “realistic” to mean “difficult to simulate in the same way our reality is difficult to simulate”.
Of course, the automatic definition of realistic is similar to our reality. But I don’t see why our reality could not be the simulation of reality which is simpler to simulate than ours. · 9 months ago
