The Joe Rogan Experience
#2259 - Thomas Campbell

That's it. He's got it. Okay. It was a book written by two physicists, both of them mathematical physicists, theoretical physicists. And they wrote this book, and what it says is that there's five or six things that have to be just perfectly tuned to each other in this universe of ours for our universe to exist at all. If any one of them wasn't exactly as it is, the whole thing would be unstable.

It never would have existed long enough to produce humans. It would be unsuitable for humans. It may be a bunch of rocks, but there really wouldn't be any possibility of life. So in order to support life, all of these various things are tuned to one another. It's not only that each thing had to be very special, but it had to be tuned to all the other ones.

They all had to work together in order to produce this. So when these scientists realized that, they wrote this book, and they called it The Anthropic Principle because they said it looks like this universe was designed just for us to make life be able to happen because there's zillions of things that, of course, science says are all random. Everything happens randomly.

It's virtually impossible to... that randomly all of these pieces could fit together so perfectly to make this a viable universe for life. So that's why they call it the anthropic. It looks like it was made, you know, for people. And in fact, it was. And the question is, how would we get all of these things to happen and all be tuned to each other?

Well, take one, take two, dot, dot, dot, you know, take 10,000. All of these work. tuned in order to create the result, which was avatars that consciousness could attach themselves to. And that's what we are. That's exactly what we are. Now, think of what that means, what a virtual reality is. We said virtual reality has a computer, has a player, has a virtual computation.

Now, from the perspective of inside that virtual reality, from the perspective of the barbarian in World of Warcraft, the computer is nonphysical. The computer can't be part of that virtual reality. It has to be, you know, virtual reality doesn't compute itself.

That computer has to be, as Fredkin said, Dr. Edward Fredkin, it has to be in other, someplace other than here, someplace other than this reality. The player and the computer communicating to each other. So they have to be in the same reality frame. And indeed, the player has to also be non-physical from the viewpoint of the avatar.
