That's not an argument for reality being a simulation.
- mrspeaker 10y agoYeah, it's not an argument it's just an "implication" (and I bet the "argument" part got chopped from the article) like "If we've come so far in just 40 years, in another 10,000 years we'll be able to simulate life exactly with every character in the game made from some predefined rules, controlled by advanced neural-networks that evolve as the game plays out" kind of thing.
