No.
Just wake up and look at the reality. This is real life that we're living in and there's no simulation that's happening or we're inside a computer game.
As much as others want to get into that image to avoid the current bad situation of their lives, thinking that this all is just an illusion.
But sorry to tell you, this is real life.

I think about this a lot, I think what if we are what does it mean... it means nothing..
and I go round and round thinking about it then I realise from our perspective it really doesn't matter, we feel we experience and we die and its over, whether that was part of something natural or simulated at the level we're at really doesn't matter.
You could say that it would be better if we were part of some computer simulation because at the end of it hopefully, the people in the tier above will learn something from the experiment.
Unless as is in Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy they accidentally turn off the experiment 5 mins before completion in order to build a freeway!

no.
who would design a simulation that includes irrational numbers (pi etc)? the goal of creating an artificial reality would certainly include the ability to have absolutely accurate measurements and values for everything. easier from a computational point of view as why waste computing power unnecessarily.
cant have rounding errors in the universe. its, well, untidy, as well as being inconvenient.

Maybe the goal is to see how we would deal with such things, Pi is not only irrational its transcendental, but it's properties are beautiful. Pi and e could be eastereggs for us to find!

The Audible version is narrated by Jodie Foster, who I believe was in the film, I don't know if this will be gimmicky. By the looks of things the book is quite short, so I think I will get it on kindle.

No we are not, there is no such thing as something like The Matrix. We are human beings living a life, it is what it is. Admittedly it’s a crappy life atm due to Corona Virus & we are controlled by our governments to an extent but reality is what we see in front of our eyes.

Well, I would say our physical bodies are not the real Us but that doesn't mean we are in a computer simulation. The real Us is our Spirits while the physical bodies are controlled by the Spirits. I know "someone" who went up in heaven/sky last year(not in physical body) and saw alot of humans in something like cages (spiritual cages) while their physical bodies are on earth. The physical bodies on earth are like walking corpses because the spirits are caged already. So, our world is much more than a simulation. It's very real and sophisticated... Created by an extremely Superior CREATOR with limitless Powers and abilities.

Elon Musk:
"Given that we’re clearly on a trajectory to have games that are indistinguishable from reality and those games could be played on any set top box or any PC, and their would probably be billions of computer or set top boxes, it would seem to follow that the odds we are in base reality are one in billions."
Its incredibly hard to comprehend, especially if you dont have a grasp of probability or if you have strong beliefs. Personaly base reality or not we may as well enjoy the ride.

Don't believe the so-called rumors on the Internet. They seem to be very reasonable, but no one can change the fact that: we live in a virtual world is a scam of the century. This is a fact that cannot be changed. There is also a saying that a person really wakes up when he is dead. He is not the dead person, and he doesn't know that the dead person can't wake up and tell us! Therefore, this statement is not valid.

Probably, yes and no! Did you came across the Interview of Elon Musk about Aliens and Simulation recently? ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Well, he gave the best ever answer for that question so you can view that completely to get the idea.

In fact, there are many sci-fi movie storylines that are related to the virtual world. What we mean is that we think that the existence of reality is just a virtual reality. This kind of storyline can make people feel a little "doubt about life", but it is not impossible to think about it carefully. So how to judge whether we are living in a virtual world?

No we are living not, we are living in a free world. If you don'tv believe in free will try and change your habits. For example, you don't like to eat fish, order fish next time for dinner. Life is crazy and real.

Life is crazy and real. A computer program could be made in which we could have what we perceive as free will. Look at things like Alpha Zero, that thing figured out how to play Chess and Go! Computers are amazing. If nothing else its at least good fun to think about.

Our world contains a lot of hidden complexity. For example, we can calculate the properties of protons according to basic laws, but these calculation formulas are extremely complicated. It is really a bad strategy to build a simulated world with such difficult-to-calculate components.
