Are We Living in a Simulation? | Oleg Maslov | TEDxSPbU

What are the chances that we are artificial intelligence beings living in a virtual world? Oleg lays out evidence that suggests that those chances are much higher than we believe.
Олег родился в Курске, но вырос в США, куда переехала его семья, когда ему было пять лет. В 2011 получил два диплома бакалавра Вашингтонского университета в Сиэтле - политологии и экономики.
В поисках приключений в 2013 году Олег переехал в Берлин, где получил должность в Ruptly TV. Начав карьеру в ньюсруме, он быстро дошел до позиции в отделе обслуживания клиентов, где помогал Ruptly заключать контракты с такими компаниями, как Daily Mail и AOL. В настоящий момент Олег озвучивает новостные и развлекательные видео на английском языке для Ruptly TV.
Желая продолжить свое образование, Олег поступил на магистерскую программу двойного диплома между СПбГУ и Свободным Университетом Берлина «Global Communication and International Journalism». В марте этого года он стал победителем Public Speaking, получив возможность выступить на TEDxSPbU.
Олег - сооснователь двух стартап-проектов: FlyFit и VideoGo. С помощью FlyFit пользователи могут находить и покупать различные услуги фитнес-клубов, VideoGo - платформа для распространения и монетизации видео.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

[@deedeemegadoodoo3323]

ROYCE ROLLS lol thats still only an opinion

[@Masterfilm15]

its a fair question to ask our selfs, when I was researching the book "think and grow rich" as a teen I found a lot of successful people use this method of using their imagination to create their reality. Your thoughts, or over time what you think of your self and wants, become what your living in. Theres lots of prof to show this is very true. Like the old saying watch what you want, because your going to get it. What you put out in the universe daily ends up being your reality, effecting your choices and there for unfolding as what your living in. It would explain why this method works so well for so many. Of course theres situations that happen that we cant control, but maybe those situations are tests. I know you have to keep focus on a task or wants to make it happen. Just purely stating a want one day, and forgetting about it, or not putting energy into it wont make it a reality. But putting the certain amount of energy into your imagination and energy into your actions daily does create your over all reality. Which is why I find the thought process of end of times very concerning, if humanity thinks we will wipe our selfs out over time, maybe we will by thinking that for a certain amount of time, maybe we wont change toxic ways because we believe its too late.. hence why we are masters of our own destiny as a collective.

[@CaptZdq1]

That's a superstition, n it has nothing to do with computer simulations.

[@ghostprxphet]

The logical explanation is that if you want something really bad and you put energy in that need some of your actions are automatically going to be positive changes towards that future where you get what you want. Simple, nothing to do with simulations

another aspect everyone is overlooking is that of quantum mechanics and subatomic physics-when you see that atoms are not really tiny solar systems of electrons in orbits around a nucleus but that electrons are waves and everything really is waves and not particles, then realize that they are waves of what?-WAVES OF PROBABILITIES, they are only probabilities to exist, where you cant find the speed and location at the same time of any subatomic "particle" they dont really exist!, atoms are really made of "things" that dont really exist but of waves of probabilities to exist... and us and the rocks and buildings and everything around us and the entire universe is all made of atoms- it really is a matrix, a matrix of probabilities and chance created by our perception, we actually create this "universe" by perceiving it! and this is not a movie or crazy idea but where physics is today and what we have discovered scientifically about the true nature of our "reality"

When you think of yourself as a character in a game, that you can manipulate, you are in charge, then go to the thought that we could be a character in a " game ", it makes perfect sense. Living in a simulation may just be a valid hypothesis. Even if it could be proven, which I doubt, would it change our lives that much?

[@joshthomas8169]

Love it. If Life is a Game, These Are the Rules for Being human Rule One: You will receive a body. You may love it or hate it, but it will be yours for the duration of your life on Earth. Rule Two: You will be presented with lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called "Life on Planet Earth" Every person or incident is the Universal Teacher designed as part of your curriculum. Rule Three: There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of experimentation, a series of trials, errors, and occasional victories. The failed experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that work. Rule Four: A lesson is repeated until learned. Lessons will be repeated to you in various forms until you have learned them. When you have learned them, you can then go on to the next lesson. Rule Five: Learning does not end. There is no part of life that does not contain lessons. If you are alive, there are lessons to be learned. Rule Six: "There" is no better than "here". When your "there" has become a "here" you will simply obtain a "there" that will look better to you than your present "here" Rule Seven: Others are only mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects something you love or hate about yourself. Rule Eight: What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. Rule Nine: Your answers lie inside of you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust. Rule Ten: You will forget all of this at birth. You can remember it if you want by unravelling the double helix of inner knowing.

So when we have dreams, each dream is a new simulation, and when we awake, we return to the body simulation. But the Uncreated Awareness, the witness that you are, always remains after every dream simulation, even the virtual simulation of these human bodies. The uncreated awareness that we all are, is our true reality. Our true reality was never born. When the doors of (virtual reality, simulations and perceptions) are cleansed. everything will appear as it truly is, infinite.

What if we aren't AI in the simulation but almost avatars? Like once booted in you control your body while there. And while we sleep we go back to wherever while our avatar or body charges just to come back in 8 hours later. So many crazy thoughts on this whole thing. When we get to the point of being able to download you on a chip you'll need something to keep you entertained in that virtual space, that's where the simulation comes in. And at that point in time could be 50000 years in the future and we are already there now and just dont know it bc you're already a chip in the virtual world.

[@arajoaina]

You got it! Guess what? Only an avatar would realize it so you are indeed an avatar. It’s likely a multiplayer simulation. That means there are a lot of avatars. But at the same time; it means the majority of other beings are NPCs. A non layer AI characters.

Thank you!! I worked hard to try to come up with a good closer. Very glad that you watched it all the way to the end :)

The big elephant in the room that the speaker ignored is the big question: what is an "experience"? and "Who or what is doing the experiencing"? Absolutely nothing indicates that artificial intelligence generates qualia or any sort of subjective world. Nothing we know suggests that conscious experience is even a physical thing that can ever be simulated, no matter the power of the computing device.

[@olegmmaslov]

What about self-driving tech?

[@videos_iwonderwhy]

@@olegmmaslov... what about it? Does driving tech experience qualia?

We're in a pseudo-simulation which isn't technologically driven. It's a supernatural equivalent.

@@AK-bx3ft The spirit realm is the next highest realm to this one the only actual real realm is the one that the source is in the first realm all others are simulation conceived by the sources mind we die and leave this physical realm with it's limited physical attributes, the next realm is the first of many spiritual realms and which increase in attributes that seem more and more like magic in comparison to the previous realm until we get to the last realm which is as I said the only real reality that exists, some say three heavens or seven heavens or broken down and separate even more, the first spiritual realm right after this physical realm looks very much like this existence so much so many that pass from this physical realm don't even know they have left this world and entered the first spirit realm and some stay believing this to verying degrees.

The simulation hypothesis is just religion re-imagined for the 21st century. It sounds more rational to modern humans compared to old school supernatural beliefs but it suffers from the same problems. It makes the overall picture of the world much more complicated without explaining anything that we couldn't already explain by just sticking to studying the physical world and its laws. It is also unfalsifiable - no matter how far I get in explaining the workings of the world you can just tell me it is all part of the simulation. I think the relationship between consciousness, the underlying information processing that is behind our consciousness and the physical world we observe is more complicated that we can imagine at this point. The simulation is an interesting theory but it has a lot of problems.

[@rayz639]

Sparky it’s said that billionaires follow the hypothesis like a religion in Silicon Valley.

[@cbass8202]

as we grow we expand our collectives conscious knowledge, which would explain our current understanding of life, in 1000 years we will have a totally different understanding of life but that is part of the human experiment

[@olegmmaslov]

I sympathize with your arguments, but disagree on a few points. What evidence do you have that SH (simulation hypothesis) is unfalsifiable? The dream of science is to come up with a way to definitively prove or disprove the nature of our reality, why wouldn't (or shouldn't) we try to apply the scientific approach to SH? Also, you say that SH "makes the overall picture of the world much more complicated" while then saying that the truth "is more complicated than we can imagine at this point." So which is it? Are we overcomplicating or undercomplicating? Lastly, I'm not sure how up to date you are with quantum mechanics, but the way that the quantum world works (to my admittedly limited knowledge) is very difficult to explain. Simulation theory might even be able to unify quantum mechanics and general relativity.

[@chrischiesa3253]

Error: if this is a simulation, it simulates the PHYSICS, and we evolved within that physics just as we've always assumed we've assumed we did in "real" physics. We are not "programmed" in the way we would program a robot or AI, as a deliberate construction created for a purpose.

Your mind is a "VR-set" in/around your head/body and your ego is a program through which you perceive everything as a "life". Your individual program is connected to the Supreme/Local Reality one.

In a way, I believe this. I believe we’re all spiritual beings going through a human experience. This world is not our home. When we die we go to our real home with Jesus.

[@sherbert8921]

And that’s the absolute TRUTH. “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” except for the name of JESUS. ‭‭Acts‬ ‭4:12‬ ‭KJV‬‬ AMEN ! 😇😇 🙏🏻🙌🏻

Simulation theory ties into theories of the Anunnaki and Sumerian hypothesis. The connections between Western religions and the Solar system (the Sun/Son centric story) are not a coincidence. Civilizations have always looked to the skies yet we still dont have the capability to traverse the depths of the deepest trenches under our oceans. Imagine the possibilities of water...

[@profyle766]

Exactly..water holds information..and the fact that most of the ancients shared the same cosmology shows that they knew..which makes sense as they were more connected to source.
