The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

So all these physicists are debating with each other.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

So they don't like the Copenhagen interpretation because it seems to rely on consciousness or some kind of an observer, and scientists kind of hate that.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

They hate to talk about consciousness being real, and we'll get into the whole religious aspects of the simulation hypothesis in a little bit.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

So they're like, well, this one's nice because the mathematics all work, the multiverse idea.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

But the problem with the multiverse idea is that it's not what scientists like to call parsimonious, which means that what's happening is there's a new universe splitting off like all the time.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

Every time there's a quantum and we're talking about quantum decisions.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

We're not really talking about big things like cats.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

We're talking about little decisions that occur within a nanosecond.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

And so every time there's a decision, you're splitting off to new a new physical universe.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

So think about now we're talking exponential growth, but on steroids, right?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

Because it's just infinite.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

It just keeps going, right?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

And that's kind of a weird concept that there would be so many physical universes being created.

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

And so, you know, where I came out on this subject is, well, guess what?

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

The simulation hypothesis is

The Joe Rogan Experience
#2151 - Rizwan Virk

gives you a way to look at both of these, a framework that makes it make sense, right?
