Exploring Simulation Theory and Its Implications

If simulation theory is true,

then,

um, it is actually very likely

that,

um, the most interesting outcome is the, is the most

likely because only the simulations that are interesting will

continue. The simulators will stop any simulations

that are

boring 'cause they're, they're, they're not interesting.

In, in this reality that we live in, we, we run simulations all the

time. Like, so when we try to figure out

if the rocket's, uh, gonna make

it, we run, um,

thousands, sometimes millions of simulations just to

figure out which p-

which,

uh, path is the good path for the rocket and,

and where can it go

wrong, where can it fail. Um, but we-- w-when we do

these, I'd say at this point, millions of simulations of,

of what can happen with

the rocket, um, we keep the simulations going that are

the most interesting to us. Um,

so if simulation theory is accurate...

I-if, if it is true, who knows? Um, then

the, uh,

the, the, the, the simulators will, will only con--

they will continue to r-run the

simulations that are most interesting.

There-therefore, from a Darwinian perspective, um,

the only surviving

simulations will be the interest-- the most interesting ones.

And in order to g-- um, avoid getting turned off, uh, w-

the only rule is you must keep it interesting or you

will-- if-- or you will--

c-because the boring simulations will be terminated.
