Philip K Dick believed we were in a simulation
The great novelist thought his Man in the High Castle was an actual alternate reality.

It would explain the instantaneous communication between quantum entangled photons. Instead of "spooky action at a distance", the "system" or "field" is simultaneously exciting two parts of its occupied space. The photons do not communicate at all and therefore preserve the physical speed limit of the universe.

Imagine an older first person shooter game. Bullets had no travel time or drop to take into account. The moment the trigger was pulled, the enemy player was instantly hit. But here, the two players aren't communicating information, but the system is taking account of all space at all time and calculating to adjust everything on it's next tick, rendering the enemy player "shot".

The bullet's information never has to travel faster than light in order for its effect to be accounted for by the whole system. Just one tick, or one unit of Planck time, is all that is required for adjustment to be calculated.

A pinch of salt required but interesting thought, I think.

It’s possible. Atoms are just smaller pixels in our 1000k virtual reality

My friends none of this is real, there is no such thing as you or I. It’s a beautiful so called reality but we have not even the slightest idea of what reality even is.

Simulation theory, also known as the simulation hypothesis, suggests that our reality is a computer-generated simulation created by a highly advanced civilization. The premise of the theory holds that our perception of reality could be an artificial construct that is indistinguishable from a physical reality. This hypothesis is based on the assumption that a future civilization with advanced technological capabilities could create simulations of reality, with virtual beings that have consciousness and believe that their simulated world is real. In short, simulation theory proposes that what we perceive as "reality" is actually a virtual reality created by an advanced technological civilization.

I’ve been fascinated by this theory for decades 💯❤️

Yes and the best part is the odds. If it's possible to "simulate" a universe like this then it's possible to make a zillion copies. If that's the case think of the odds that we are in a simulated universe versus an "organic" one.

My man.

But seriously, he also thought he was Jesus.

If you like a really good read, I recommend his biography - I am a alive and you are dead by Emmanuel Carrère

Thinking your Jesus is pretty common in career speed freaks like Dick.
P.S. The above is an observation not criticism.of Dick whom I totally dig.

Yeah. I love Dick's writing, but he was, well, a bit of a dick.

Philip K. Dick did a lot of drugs.

But he did say a passage from Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said preceded an event that became reality. The man at the petrol station for those that read it.

The Empathy Box from Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep resembles the internet in some ways. And as for the Nazis winning the war, well...

I just have to say 'Time Out of Joint' is the best scifi novel of all time and also highlights these thoughts perfectly.

I saw him talking about this on another vid, the Bladerunner universe was the same place i think and there were lots of orientals in the facist USA as the Japanese and Germans shared the spoils after the war with the germans taking the east coast and the japanese the west...who knows? there are loads of weird glitches which 'prove' we are in a sim...YT is full of these theories, and as they all seem to say, the chances of us being in the one original out of thousands of sims is very slim...good link mate.

Simulation Hypothesis is definitely a thing. I wonder what it's doing with the odd socks and pens that keep disappearing from the simulation though...?
