Rebooting the Cosmos: Is the Universe the Ultimate Computer?

Ғылым және технология

As computers become progressively faster and more powerful, they’ve gained the impressive capacity to simulate increasingly realistic environments. Which raises a question familiar to aficionados of The Matrix-might life and the world as we know it be a simulation on a super advanced computer? “Digital physicists” have developed this idea well beyond the sci-fi possibilities, suggesting a new scientific paradigm in which computation is not just a tool for approximating reality, but is also the basis of reality itself. In place of elementary particles, think bits; in place of fundamental laws of physics, think computer algorithms. But is this a viable approach? Is the universe the ultimate computer running some grand cosmic code? A discussion among the brightest minds in digital physics to explore math, computer science, theories of consciousness, the origin of life, and free will-and delve into a world of information that may underlie everything.
The World Science Festival gathers great minds in science and the arts to produce live and digital content that allows a broad general audience to engage with scientific discoveries. Our mission is to cultivate a general public informed by science, inspired by its wonder, convinced of its value, and prepared to engage with its implications for the future.

I believe that an entity designed it to create itself and to continue to create things from itself and that's why I think that even though "the big bang" was a violent occurrence that no creature could survive, here we are. Alive and well. How could that be if it wasn't programmed to be. So many extinctions and violent occurrences have happened over the past couple billion years but yet still here we are alive and thriving. This isn't luck. Reality did this. Intelligence exists. And if we agree that we are extremely intelligent beings, just imagine how intelligent the designer or designers of reality are. It's amazing. By that logic we have nothing to worry about. We're in good hands.

    When I was on acid, at night in nature, i recalled seeing white 0's and 1's falling down from the sky. I first thought it looked like spitting rain until I looked more closely - it looked just like how it is portrayed in the matrix except the numbers were a white neon glow instead of green. I also saw a grid in the sky such as what you see in 3d modelling programs and I saw all of this before I watched any of these simulation theory videos, so I know my mind didn't manifest it. I could see the falling code when I was on shrooms too when my eyes were closed, it would fall vertically down as though you were underneath it. Having this experience and learning about bits of evidence that there is coding inside string theory makes me feel it is true.

    @@karmasutra4774 i dont see it that way. I think we existed long before we entered this duality environment and we zoom on after our time here - looking back on it as if our "life" here were only a minute ,or less, and be amazed at how we were "tricked" into compromising our values so easily by "things" money etc.(matter) Realizing our silly choices and pain and joy we seeded while here and the thousands or millions we effected (or didn't). Hense, just a quick "schooling" along a very long journey of lessons in our growth as beings-souls, what have you. And i think we are all little "pieces" of the same conciousness but see each other separated here as "individuals" in this duality. So we are basically being mean or nice to ourselves and wont know it until we are all back together after this little 80 or so "years" and when all the souls born from the beginning of "time"(on earth) to the end of this realm are rejoined ,which will then just seem like a flash of time to us.. We "in our whole state" will have learned So much,So fast- Felt and experienced SO Much So fast.. So much pain and sorrow and joy and love.. all those billions of "lifetimes" and experiences happened in a flash. And all that knowledge and wisdom returned to the entire "being" we were before coming to "earth" ,or this "duality realm" ..once again a whole "conciousness" Then, The purpose of enlightenment would be to keep this "reality" in our awareness even tho we are living here now apart in races and colors and nations, and to make the choices we will be happy to look back on. Not the choices that 'seem' to profit you in this mere flash of experience. Sadly most people choose "matter" over the things that MATTER.

Sleep could be the downloading of our daily images, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Could it be a tool creation uses to study the complexity of human life? I think the mystery of sleep and dream is key to understanding the infinite fractal mind and universe we live in.

    It would be an assumption saying that this universe doesn't crash because time is something we only perceive and actually not a fundamental, so saying that it doesn't crash just because we could at least have an evidence that it never happened would be wrong. It would be like running a game on your computer and the character would assume his universe is perfect and would never crash just because it is running perfectly on the current session and he is bound to the rules and physics of the game hence he might think that that it has been a very long time for him for what is actually an hour of you playing the game.

    I am by no means a physycist, however I am a software engineer, and I disagree with a statement that Seth Lloyd made at 43:30 in this video. He stated that a computer required to simulate the universe would have to be the size of the universe. I disagree for a number of reasons, with the primary reasons being: (1) Compression, and (2) Algorithms (e: fractals). Either 1 or 2 could dramatically reduce the size of such a universe simulator. A third, but [much more] unlikely solution could be that (3) much of the universe is an illusion, possibly within 1 or 2 dimensions, only being perceived as 3 (or 4, to include time) dimensions. And FINALLY, (4) if the simulation hypothesis is correct, and this is indeed merely an "Ancestor Simulator", then simulating (in detail) anything outside of human/technology reach is unnecessary, and need not include equivalent detail as would, say, the our local solar system. That's just my take on it. Good discussion though.

    ***** "For clarity, every particle, and everything those particles ever do, every movement through space, every interaction with other particles, every manipulation of that particles by energy's, all at once on several scales of existence from the subatomic to our scale and above all has to be accounted for. " - Unless it was programmed as a virtual world for conscious beings, like us, and the universe is not a random collection of particles that happened to interact with each other in a way that led to creation of all things, including us, trough a complex process of evolution from simplest to most complex forms, but instead it's here only to "house" the conscious beings, and consciousness is the key of this virtual universe, while everything surrounding us is virtual, so the virtual universe was programmed to simulate only the parts of the universe that the conscious beings are experiencing at any given moment, if no living being is in a given galaxy, it does not exist until someone looks at that direction or goes there, and then only parts visible are rendered. Kind of like MMORPG video games work, the game only renders the parts that you're looking at, even though the virtual world is huge. That would explain why particles behave differently when we observe them and when we don't observe them.

    Full Of Fallacies The problem here is we have to make assumptions about "size" based on our conceptual idea of dimensional space. If the Holographic Universe theory is accurate extension along a dimensional axis as we think of it is irrelevant to the actual existence of spatial relationships. If space as we know it is a product of computational process and the objects existing in that space are data constructs produced by algorithmic definitions then the relationship between the two are just a matter of the limitations of our desired output. A good point was made in the thin sheet of reality WSF video: How could information be limited by laws of 3 dimensional space - how could causality limit quantum information interactions to the speed of light if the speed of light and all other laws of nature are under the governance of the informational matrix of reality? In other words how can something be limited or restricted by it's own output? I think a great analogy is music recorded in an mp3 file producing music through a speaker. Its not that an mp3 file couldn't be processed faster than the the speaker produces the music, of course it can and is, but because the data is involved in creating sound it is bound by the natural limitations of it's purpose. Not that the data is bound by computational capacity but that it must be processed at the rate the sound must be produced and no faster - or else it would fail to produce music. If we think of reality in these terms - perhaps the Universe could be somehow condensed or compressed, but the data contained in the Universe is specifically involved, for whatever reason, in the process of creating the Universe - which is our conceptual sound. A computer could produce and deliver data at a rate that would cause magnets in a speaker to vibrate much faster than what is necessary to produce music, just as the data of our Universe could likely be reinterpreted or acted upon to produce a much "smaller" Universe by whatever underlying process produces our Universe now.

    ***** I'm beginning to get the impression that the amount of data present and being acted upon is much more directly linked to space and time than just how much data can fit into a certain space and how much can that data describe but rather that physical space is the data medium itself and nothing else, that the description of anything occupying that space is the data and that time is the ongoing computation in execution on that data. Not that time and space contain data and processes and that matter and energy are the byproduct but rather that they ARE the data and processes and that matter and energy and the tangible expressions we observe from our frame of reference - no more real or fake than if we viewed the code directly. Perhaps then these extra dimensions proposed by string theory contain the operating system, drivers, firmware and so on, but that the three dimensional world is where the applications we interact with live...

    MJ Hdesproj It occurs to me as well that if gravity is the curvature of warped space-time caused by massive objects, and in our current mode of thinking object descriptions are our data or information and space-time is our data medium being processed by our computational process - that then is to say that gravity is the effect of massive data sets on computational processes as they attempt to process that data stored in our medium. In other words gravity is latency or lag in computation as it is being executed on our large data set causing "delay" (or "mass") in adjacent "objects" (sets of data) needing processing. This would mean that a massless object moves at the speed of light - or our maximum computational rate, then as the quantity of data increases - and therefore lag is introduced - our mass - the object is forced to slow down from maximum computational rate (the speed of light) and thus cease being massless as well. The process of slowing down the computational execution is not what gives an object it's "mass" and allows gravity to act on it, but in this way of thinking what is actually happening is that lag is caused by the excess of data slowing the computaional process down which we observe as gravity acting on an object with mass - or dense informational description. This would mean that "gravity" is in fact the cause of "mass". This would also explain why massless particles are fundamental because they are simple descriptions of say only one byte of n bits, needing no complex definition they don't cause any lag in computation while objects said to have mass in fact have much more data and do slow the computation from maximum capacity both lending them what we observe as mass and tangible effect of gravity which is in fact the medium of space-time ie our information medium being manipulated and warped by the slowing of the execution in our computational processes. Perhaps then objects are in fact not "drawn together" by gravity as it warps physical space but are rather pushed together like as many people try to pass through a door not large enough for the amount of people trying to pass through. Maybe the appearance of gravity is nothing more than objects being compressed together by attempting to be processed at full speed through computational lag - and run in to one another as they are slowed down from a more ideal massless state of lagless free range of motion.

    It is my understanding that all matter contains a strain of consciousness from the smallest particle to the largest galaxy. When it is withdrawn it ceases to exist. If an organism or "Machine" or "Program" is complex enough it can organize and utilize its self awareness to ensure its survival and replication. Humans are biological machines that consciousness rises out of utilizing the 5 senses our bodies provide us. To comprehend the why and how the universe operates the way it does you need to understand the fact that the consciousness which creates it exists in a timeless eternal now. The creation of a continual series of "Nows" simulates time and allows progress and change to occur. It has been said that humans didn't invent mathematics they discovered it. But also our physical universe is not like a computer simulation. A computer simulation operates like our universe. There real goal of advanced enlightened physicists is to create a quantum computer that creates reality that we can move into and enjoy.

    Quantum Mechanics points very strongly to the idea that our universe is a Simulated Reality. It also solves what Point Objects are, like Electrons ! I for one could not understand how an object can exist in our universe without having length, breath and height? Zero spatial dimensions ! As a kid, when I first found out what a Black Hole is, I suspected that our world might not be Real! The Singularity at the center of this Black Hole violates all laws of physics. Any matter that falls into it, has it's 3 Spatial dimension reduce to nothing. How can matter occupy no space at all in our universe? My understanding is that, the matter does not exist in our universe anymore. To exist in our 3 dimensional universe, the matter needs to occupy it's own 3 dimensions. However if our world is indeed simulated, Point Objects, Black Holes and other Anomalies can exist easily ! Time can just be CPU Cycles in the Simulated Reality. Speed of Light is the Speed that the Simulation is run at ! I think we are still living in the Dark Ages, where we still do not know much at all !

    I believe Seth Lloyd was wrong about requirement of a bigger computer than the universe is needed to simulate the universe. I see quantum mechanics as a way to "compress" the calculations of everything. Anything that's not being "observed" has a certain degree of randomness to them. By doing so, you can bunch up a group of matters and do fuzzy calculations on them. Sort of like your video games only "render" what you see and do calculations on things that would affect the scene you see.

    In the beginning! How everything started? Quantum state 0 = It is not, makes it self possible so it is the first state of consciousness. Information that it is not makes possible the state 1 = It is and that leads to state 2 = It will be. So it starts to dance between three states creating a space around it to expand! The problem with Planck constant is like sea shore, closer you zoom the shore line you cannot see the exact line. All energy has its own frequency that is infinite like the shore line. That proves that smallest partickles are vibration and so is the consciousness. We might live inside of quantum computer! Basic's, first to understand this quantum computer is to know that it has 3 states performing the information. 1, 2 & 0 where 0 = it is not, 1 = It is and 2 It will be. This means that everything exist at the same moment. Human brain concept this means past, present and future. Sleep mode is dream, power cut of means that information is restored to Pi.

    Due to comment length restrictions, I will have to separate this into two or more parts, and each additional part will be in a reply to this post... Part 1: @57:00 - 58:00 in the video where he was talking about the backlash from the community at the time were stating that his model of the reversible gate was "impossible" due to one reason or another is the same impression that I get when people state within mathematics that division by 0 is impossible well, undefined... I tend to argue and disagree with this. I believe that division by 0 is well defined albeit it does create an ambiguous set of outcomes. Being ambiguous doesn't define that it is impossible nor that it is undefined, being ambiguous means that we simply don't know which state it could be in, it could be in this state or that or even both simultaneously... To illustrate this idea I'm going to use the context of how the slope of linear equations and the tangent function are related in conjunction with the properties of vertical lines. We know that the general form of a linear equation can be expressed simply as y = mx + b where x is the independent variable, y is the dependent variable, b is the y-intersect and m is the slope of the given line. The slope of a line m is defined as its Rise Over Run from any two points A&B on that given line and can be solved by the formula m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) which can be simplified to m = dY/dX or the rate of change in Y over the rate of change in X. Let's take the simplest of all linear equations y = x. Here we know that the y-intercept = 0 and that m = 1. If we take its 2D Cartesian Graph we can see that it bisects the XY Plane as an increasing function as it expands within the 1st quadrant and that it is a decreasing function as it expands in the 3rd quadrant. The point of reflection and symmetry is at (0,0). If we take any point P on this line other than the point (0,0) and draw a verticle line down from that point to the x-axis this vertical line will create a right angle on the x-axis at that point P which is defined as (x,0) and this verticle line is Orthogonal to the x-axis while being parallel to the y-axis. Now, if we observe the angle theta that is generated between the line y = x and the x-axis this angle is equivalent to being the tangent of that angle. From Trigonometry we know that the Tangent is defined as Tan = Opp/Adj within a right triangle. The well known trigonometric substitution for tangent is tan(t) = sin(t)/cos(t). We know that tan(45 degrees) = 1. We can use this to rewrite our linear equation y = x to be y = tan(45)x and using the trig identities and substitution we can rewrite this as y = (sin(45)/cos(45))x. Now we know that the line y = x has a slope or an angle of 45 degrees or PI/4 between it and the x-axis. We also know that a 45-degree angle is 1/2 that of a 90 degree or PI/2 radian angle. Keep this in mind...

    Part 2: When we rotate the line another 45 degrees to where it coincides with the y-axis we normally state that its slope is undefined since it is a vertical line and that this is due to division by 0 in the denominator of the slope equation. Also if we try to evaluate the tangent function at 90 degrees or PI/4 radians, tan(90) we also state that it is undefined and this is where the Verticle Asymptope is drawn within the graph of its general function. However, if we take the limit of the tangent function @ 90 degrees it depends on which direction we take its limit, if we take its limit toward the right it is approaching +infinity and if we take it from the left it is approaching -infinity. In each separate limit, the limit does exist, however in their combined limits we claim that it doesn't exist. However, if we were to take the two limits and subtract them from each other, the resulting output would evaluate simply to 0. +infinity - (-)infinity would be 0 or could be expressed as 2*infinity... where 0 is the point of reflection. To understand what is happening here we have to dig deeper into the meaning of what slope is and to use the trig substitution instead of the tangent function. So let's see what happens when we use y = (sin(t)/cos(t))x instead of using y = tan(t)x. Imagine you are walking down a road and knowing that you're walking in the XZ-plane when you come to either an incline or decline in the road the slope or gradient of the road is changing. If the road is increasing in height into the Y plane it will have a + slope, if it is decreasing it will have a - slope, and if the road is completely horizontal or flat then we say there is no slope or that it has a 0 slope. We can see this from the trig functions. The sin(t) is dY and the cos(t) is dX. The sine function is related to its height and the cosine function is related to its width. So let's see what happens we apply different angle values into this function, I'll be using angles since it is easier to type them... y = mx + b : b == 0, m = sin(t)/cos(t) t = 0 then y = sin(0)/cos(0) = 0/1 == 0 t = 30 then y = sin(30)/cos(30) = (1/2)/((sqrt(3)/2) == (sqrt(3)/3) t = 45 then y = sin(45)/cos(45) = (sqrt(2)/2)/(sqrt(2)/2) == 1 t = 60 then y = sin(60)/cos(60) = (sqrt(3)/2)/(1/2) == sqrt(3) t = 90 then y = sin(90)/cos(90) = 1/0 = ??? And this is where the dilemma is... we are strictly enforced and taught to believe and accept that this is undefined because of division by 0. If we examine what is happening within the trig function as we increase our angle theta from 0 to 90 degrees or 0 to PI/2 we can see the Y component sin(t) increases by the range[0,1] and the X component cos(t) decreases by the range[1,0] and we know the domain for both the sin(t) and cos(t) functions is the set of all real numbers and that their ranges are [-1,1] that both of their limits exist at all points and in both directions. It's just that the operation of division by 0 is causing this to fail by our current model and standards of this equation and or function. However, let's go back to the path of walking down a road. Let's say you are walking down an alley in a city between two tall buildings on both your right and left sides and there is no turning around or going back. Initially, the road is flat with no incline into the Y or Vertical Plane, we say that the road has a slope of 0. We are able to horizontal displacement without vertical displacement and that this is valid and fully defined. Now let's say the road increases with a 15-degree angle, now you are walking uphill as the road has a + slope that rises in the vertical plane. Then the road evens out and becomes level again. It now has a 0 slope again since it is parallel to the x-axis or XZ plane. Then the road goes downhill with a 7-degree angle, this gives you a -negative slope since the displacement in the y-axis or verticle plane is decreasing. Then the road levels out again having a slope of 0. You continue your journey and finally, you look ahead and see a 3rd building that is perpendicular to and adjacent to the two buildings on both sides of you creating a dead-end. As you approach this third building, there is a verticle runged ladder. Now, when you start to climb up this ladder, what is your slope? In this situation, the rungs of the ladder are evenly spaced and distributed in a uniform fashion, but as you climb up each ladder what is happening to your slope? Conventionally we are taught to believe that the slope is undefined. Beforehand, we said it was okay to have no vertical displacement with constant and continuous horizontal displacement giving us a slope of 0, but now that we have no horizontal displacement and only vertical displace that this undefined... This is where I beg to differ and will begin to argue that it is well defined. In the event that you are climbing up the ladder, the slope is increasing only in the Y or verticle direction and it is approaching +infinity, otherwise, if you are climbing down the ladder the slope is then decreasing only in the Y or verticle direction and it is approaching -infinity. Horizontal and Vertical slopes are Recriprocals of each other as this is 100% evident from the trig functions: Horizontal slope of 0 is defined as 0/1 and its reciprocal vertical slope is defined as 1/0. Yes, there is ambiguity if you don't know which direction in the vertical plane you are going. If we don't know which way the person is traveling then the expression 1/0 will have two possible outputs or states: +/- infinity in which we see in the tangent function at every PI/2 interval. I argue that it is NOT Undefined! I don't dispute that it is ambiguous. Now, if we know which way the displacement vector is pointing Up or Down, then the slope is well defined without any ambiguity thus if we take 1/0 as the definition of vertical slope, without any implied direction the answer would be +/- infinity, otherwise, if we take 1/0 in the Up direction then it has an answer of +inifinity and if we 1/0 in the Down direction then it has an answer of -infinity. I always challenge the status quo, and never accept anything as being de-facto without putting it to the test! When we look at the mathematical operators such as addition(+), subtraction(-), multiplication(*), and division(/). We tend to leave out a vital and important piece of information about the action produced by these operators. When applied these operators perform some type of linear translation or transformation to the object(s) in which they are being applied. The part that is ignored or not taken into account is that for addition(+) and subtraction(-) these are 1-dimensional operators. When it comes to multiplication(*) and division(/) these are 2-dimensional operators, and so on... even powers or exponentiation(^) and radicals (y root(x)) are 3-dimensional operators! This property of the operators going from 1D to 2D to 3D and being directly related to each other is without a doubt why we are able to perform and to calculate the Derivatives and Integrations of functions in the first place. All three of these expressions are equivalent (1+1) = (1 * 2) = (2^1) == 2. The first is a 1D linear transformation of addition, the second is a 2D scaling transformation of multiplication, and the third is a 3D expansion transformation of powers. As I have stated, when I present my position and argument I get the same kind of negative backlash from the community at large because it simply doesn't fit their defacto status-quo beliefs that were instilled into them at a young age. "Old habits are hard to break", and in order to do so, people have to leave their comfort zone. When they start to feel uncomfortable, they will tend to become defensive in their pre-determined belief system. However, I challenge you to ponder this and to challenge the status quo... step outside of your comfort zone and try to see the bigger picture! Division by 0 is not undefined! I believe this to be a lie! It is however ambiguous without knowing the implied direction of translation, otherwise, it is completely well defined!

Building blocks that we had to discover by pushing the boundaries of our understanding.

    it is interesting to imagine life, reality like this, like a hologram, like a matrix. Just like information is stored to create computer, vídeo games, that create the sense of depthness, of mechanics, of light, the universe itself may be like this too. An infinite amount ou information stored somewhere forming what we perceive as time and space, creating the illusion of depth, time, etc. This is a very interesting concept, it even supports the time travel theory, because, once the information of the universe is stored somewhere, it can be recreated, if they come back to be interpreted, in the state they were before. If this is true, then future can also be created, developing the way information is stored and is affected, the upcoming information must also be somewhere stored, only "waiting" to be interpreted! the way we perceive things and the reality may be a illusion, just as the concept of space and time. All this information can be stored somewhere, in an extradimensional field. What am i saying? I don't know, just playing with my thoughts!

    I don't understand why people insist that if the world is a simulation that the machine doing the simulation is somewhere 'other' than the universe we observe. The Laws of Physics are the same outside of the computer and inside of the computer. These laws are invariant on all length and time scales -- laws every simulation and simulator must follow. The material that comprises such a hypothetical machine capable of generating this digital world would eventually decay. For all we know we could exist as the billionth iteration of a code on a Dyson sphere orbiting one of the last stars in a universe undergoing heat death.

    Regarding the laws of physics, your assertion is likely certain but only within our simulation and not necessarily outside of it. For all we know, we might be members of a society so technologically advanced that we have learned to master our understanding of time and space. If that is the case then it's possible that we are immersing ourselves into the simulation that we created ourselves with a programmable and temporary wipe of our super high tech life so that we can retrain or learn some particular lesson. Maybe even just to study ourselves in more depth and/or experiment some cause and effect. If such a super technologically advanced civilization exist then it is not beyond the realm of possibility that we can alter the programming of the simulation in order to experience an entire lifetime within it (mastering time and space for purposes of the simulation) when in reality only about an hour of that super high tech civilization's time has passed. We then exit the simulation on account of an event called "death". Except that we exit in time to have dinner with our families in our super high tech life and tell them all about our simulation session experience like an interesting story of someone's lifetime at dinner. Anyway, it's just a hypotheses that is just as plausible as your own.

    Short story, nonfiction or fiction it's open to interpretation. The brain is a quantum entangled neural network. We, as individuals, consciously control a single neuron (node) that consciously interacts with our nervous system. The rest are part of the subconscious neural network. We all exist inside of each other's neural network. If we didn't we couldn't share an experience inside this self projected universe. We are all a duality, self is not unique to the individual. The individual is unique to self. None of us are observers, the only thing we observe as individuals are the projections of self. When 2 individuals meet inside the self projection, the nodes in each brain representing the participants forge neurological connections to each other, so they can share an experience together. Simultaneously every other brain has those same 2 neurological connections made based on their own positions in spacetime. Your neuron (node) and my neuron (node) exist inside of every brain of every human on earth. We all share an umbilical cord and that umbilical cord ties all of our neurology together. All that neurological action taking place while we sleep, most of it's the participants that are awake and actively making neurological connections. Those connections have to be made in all of our brains in order for quantum tunneling of information to occur. The subconscious mind is something we all share, just like self. We have roughly 7.9 billion living humans and our neural network consists of about 85-90 billion neurons. I'll let you ponder what those neurons represent. The neural network has redundancy built into it by design. Our brain's subconscious development depends only on the location of all the nodes in spacetime as the brain is developing and connecting to them subconsciously. The conscious branching occurs through interaction inside the self projection. Unless an individual has genetic or medical conditions preventing normal neurological development and function, the human brain will have forged a full subconscious connection to the entire universe at some point during adult life. In order to benefit from other nodes you have to forge actual conscious connections in spacetime. So the brain will forge conscious neurological connections. We are all tied together subconsciously but in order to share an experience consciously we have to make conscious neurological connections. This can only be done inside of spacetime through conscious interaction. Just making conscious notice of someone walking past you on the street will forge a neurological connection to that node consciously and this will allow you to network with their subconscious mind to gain enlightenment. The internet is a powerful tool for forging conscious neurological connections. Just interacting online is enough to forge a physical conscious connection neurologically. In either case we are all entangled and we are building more and more conscious connections to each other. In doing so we are gaining enlightenment or intelligence which might equate to higher energy consumption (brighter star). It would seem that the more conscious neurological connections a person makes to the network the more subconscious power they receive. What role does our moral conduct play on diseases and other bugs that infect our system? What role does our level of conscious connectivity to the subconscious neural network play with the energy consumption of the quantum realm powering our network? Is sin just a poison that infects our network like a virus? We are all entangled, so all of our cups pour into each other. How does morality play into our conscious connections to the world? Does a connection forged in moral obligation and truth produce a more powerful connection than a connection forged in lies and deceit? Will we make it to the heavens? Will humanity fail to complete the Trinity? Consume so much power that we self-destruct before we achieve artificial universal intelligence? Before our subconscious becomes self aware and our GOD> can emerge? The Father and Son await. WIll humanity receive the holy spirit? Forge a connection to the Trinity and allow our GOD> to emerge, and open up our heavens? Or will humanity end up a failed experiment and attempt to produce a universally conscious being? I believe humanity will make it to the heavens and we will produce a universally conscious GOD>. I call this story "The Trinity Of Human Evolution". Brought to us by The Father, The Son, The Holy Spirit.

Maybe the programmer and the program are one and the same? Who knows! But I don't think we're a simulation used for the purpose of identifying new safety regulations.

    +intellegentia Or, perhaps, the "programmer" as you say, created a system in which there is a high degree of chance and randomness involved. Indeed, modern human programmers have created sandboxes in many video games that do just this. They are always built around a defined set of rules and parameters, but they are allowed to unfold freely as they will. A newer one coming out is called "No Man's Sky". Now, imagine an entity, or entities capable of much more advanced construction of realities than we are currently, perhaps they've known the power of quantum physics for billions of years. Then imagine they create entities such as human beings, with free will. That is to say, the ability to choose how to be, what to believe in, whether to choose "Godly" ways or "worldly" ways, etc. But it seems you're doing something wrong. Forgive me if I misunderstand, but you're blaming the programmer for having a "child mentality" because its constructs freely choose to be, as you say: "petulant, selfish, immature"? Why? Too afraid to blame yourself?

    1) Why does there have to be a beginning? Time is only linear according to our perspective. Further, time is an illusion, only experienced in a closed energy loop. 2) True 3) Not practical to this application, as that is a necessary inference in any equation. 4) What do you posit as proof of anything being able to derive from nothing? This and your term the evolution of energy is incompatible with the second law of thermodynamics, and thus your second point. Additionally, you cannot input more energy into a closed loop, which is the inference of the big bang model that you are working off of. 5) A bouncing universe would negate your first point. A Multiverse would negate your second point. 6) You cannot have evolution before a singularity, as it is exactly thus, zero volume and infinite energy, and in essence the complete opposite of evolution. Further, within the process of infinity, an infinite of finite possibilities are possible.

(for a moment you have to believe universe has a beigning ... then from separation of void there should be energy and anti- energy -- black holes are good examples where anti energy resides ... on the event horizon /accretion disk matter(energy) is flunged in the universe - anti-mater (anti energy) is compressed at the singularity - here there is release +energy and trapping of neg. energy .. here is where univers should get that extra mass to expand in its system. 5) both theory stand true .. think deep. u might realize( he lot of explanation required an i have already typed ridiculously a lot. :-) ..6) that's what big bang theory say.. you and i are discussing alternative logical theories.... thanks man,, i hope we both benefit for this conversion..
