That's just pushing the problem further away.
Is the universe that computer is in also finite? deterministic?
Even if it's computers all the way down, doesn't answer much.
- zer0gravity 10y agoNot trying to solve anything here. I'm just saying that from my, non autoritative, perspective this is how things look like..
- notduncansmith 10y agoOne way this might be useful is in trying to communicate with whatever world is simulating us. I think in some circles this behavior is called "prayer". Of course, it could be that explicit communication (in a way we'd understand) is strictly forbidden, such that we would never receive objective confirmation or rejection of this theory. At best, we could prove the plausibility of the claim by doing our own simulation. How each chooses to spend their time is up to them.
