Nervous Habits with Ricky Rosen

Nervous Habits - Episode 24: Are We Living Inside A Simulation?


Listen Later

Nervous Habits host Ricky Rosen addresses those pressing issues that are keeping you awake at night, including:

—The logical probability that we are living in a Matrix-like simulation…

—Why, if we were living inside a simulation, we would remain blissfully unaware of this fact…

—Whether the simulation would be an “ancestor simulation” being run by future human civilizations or a simulation being run by alien life forms from the other side of the universe…

—Why it would be far easier to prove that we ARE living inside a simulation than that we are NOT living inside one, and finally…

—How we should live our lives if we are, in fact, living in a simulation.
