A University of Portsmouth physicist has explored whether a new law of physics could support the much-debated theory that we are simply characters in an advanced virtual world. The simulated universe ...

The simulation hypothesis—the idea that our universe might be an artificial construct running on some advanced alien computer—has long captured the public imagination. Yet most arguments about it rest ...

Simulation theory proposes that our reality is a sophisticated computer simulation, raising profound questions about the nature of consciousness and existence. Simulation theory is a fascinating ...

In this week's It’s Debatable article, Rick Rosen and Charles Moster debate whether we're all living in a computer simulation like the Matrix. Rosen retired as a professor from the Texas Tech ...
