The reality we understand and interact with daily might, according to some scientists, be nothing more than an elaborate ...

In virtual reality, this limit would correspond to the speed limit of the processor or the processing power limit. We know that an overloaded processor slows down computer processing in a simulation.

In the beginning, someone booted up a computer. Everything we see around us reflects states of that computer. We are artificial intelligences living in an artificial reality — a “simulation.” ...

AI expert Dr Roman Yampolskiy explained on Diary of a CEO podcast with Steven Bartlett the reason why he's 'almost certain' ...

Another curiosity in physics supporting the simulation hypothesis is the maximum speed limit in our universe, which is the speed of light. In a virtual reality, this limit would correspond to the ...

The technological bent to what's now called the simulation hypothesis was formalized in the paper "Are we living in a computer simulation?" by Nick Bostrom in 2003.

Googling the term “ simulation hypothesis ” returns numerous results that debate whether the universe is a computer simulation —a concept that some scientists actually take seriously.

Presumably, simulations will eventually become sophisticated enough that we could re-create our entire experience of the Universe within a computer, with simulated conscious brains experiencing a ...

If we live in a simulation run by an advanced computer, does that mean we can hack it? Here's what one scientist says.

Dr. David Peterson argues that if we are indeed living in a computer simulation of reality, we can probably hack it — by submitting feature requests.

For all we know we are, in fact, in a vast computer simulation. Here’s a version of the simulation argument that I am fond of.
