All right, but now look at my model's view of that. That big universe is virtual. It's just computed. If it's just computed, when we look out at all those little stars that are just little dots of light, that's what's being computed to us. It's a dot of light, nothing more. It's just we look out there, we look away, we go to sleep. We're not getting that data anymore. It's gone.

It's just like No Man's Sky started this idea that you only compute what a player's looking at. Well, that's the way it works. That's efficient, much more efficient. So then I compute what somebody's looking at. When I look up there at the sky, I'll see all these little dots of light. When I close my eyes, it's not in my data stream anymore. All right, so the next question is how many seats

does this larger consciousness system need in this entropy reduction simulator? Now, we reduce our entropy by the quality of the choices we make. Now, how many seats does it need? Well, you figure if there's more seats, then there's more people who are reducing their entropy, and the system is growing. And more seats. But every seat costs a price. The system has to put a data...

line to that and has to calculate all those interactions and how they affect other people and so on. So there's a price. Now at some point, like all systems, this is true of all self-changing systems, is that there's a sweet point. Okay, I add another player, better. Add another player, better. Add another player, not much better. Add another player, just a teeny bit better.

Add another player, more expensive. So it's the gain to cost. Somewhere, as you scale systems up, you'll get a cost to – how much does it cost and how much do you have to – how much you get out of it? What's the value? So eventually, we got, what, 9 billion people here. Well, if I add another person, is that going to help the larger cancer system evolve any more quickly? Probably not.

There's a billion of us. So what does that then imply? If that's the case, then this is it. Earth. We are the only people. Because then you say, oh, what a waste. It's no waste. Those are just bits. A single bit that tells you how bright it is and where it's located. Four bits. Three positions, one of intensity, and that's it.

Maybe a couple other for the Doppler effect and it's moving and it's accelerating and so on, but... That's all you get. It's not there. And when daylight comes, it doesn't have to compute any of it. When a guy gets out his telescope, it has to compute what he sees. Random draw, that's what he sees. Good. Stop doing it. Turn off his telescope. Nobody's looking at that anymore.

Then you don't have to compute it anymore. So it's not a big waste of anything. It's a virtual reality. It only computes what's functional. And it only needs so many seats. Now, if you had another planet someplace in this universe, the whole universe is its game. The game is the universe, not just our solar system.
