“But one thing is for certain — despite the sci-fi nature of Musk’s theory, it’s worth considering as a possibility. After all, humans have been wrong about the nature of reality before.

Aliens In The Multiverse? Here’s Why Dark Energy Doesn’t Tell You Anything

https://www.forbes.com/sites/startswithabang/2018/05/16/aliens-in-the-multiverse-heres-why-dark-energy-doesnt-tell-you-anything/#5d8d7a426188

TLDR: Because of the finely tuned nature of the our universe many believe their aren’t “aliens” in the Multiverse. Ethan Siegel explains that dark energy isn’t as important to planet formation as many physicists believe.

What I don’t understand is why any other universe would have any different physical constants. Why wouldn’t they all be the same? What determines what universe gets what laws of physics? It makes me think there must be an underlying set of physical laws for all these universes. Well, that and there is no evidence (as far as I know) that there is more then one universe.. other then the fact that there “must be” since there is the one we are in.

The Simulation Hypothesis — Why Quantum Physics, AI, and Eastern Mystics Agree We Are In A Video Game

https://hackernoon.com/the-great-simulation-why-quantum-physics-artificial-intelligence-and-eastern-mystics-all-agree-b6c185213a18

“Eastern traditions, particularly Buddhist traditions, have long contended that we are living in world of illusion, and that we go through multiple lives trying to work out our individual quests, all of which are stored beyond the “rendered world”. There is a giant system that not only stores this but creates new situations for us to get our “achievements”. Sure sounds like a Video Game to me.”

“If I were a religious person, I would thank God for all this inspiration that I’m blessed to experience. As I’m not religious, for me, this God’s Book thing is a powerful story.”
