A Scientific and Philosophical Examination of the Simulation Hypothesis: The Possibility of Our Reality as a Construct of Advanced Computational Design
Is The Universe A Simulation?
The Simulation Hypothesis
I. Introduction
A. Definition of Simulation Theory
The Simulation Theory posits that our reality, including all we perceive as the physical universe, might be an artificial construct — a sophisticated simulation. This hypothesis challenges the assumption that the reality we experience is an objective, physical realm. Instead, it suggests that our consciousness, the environment, and the universe might result from computational processes designed by an advanced civilization.
1. Scope of Simulation Theory
Simulation Theory encompasses various dimensions, including philosophical, technological, and metaphysical considerations. It draws on principles from multiple disciplines, such as computer science, quantum mechanics, and cognitive science, offering a framework…
