Are we just characters in a cosmic simulation? Could everything we know be part of an advanced computer program? In this episode of the Crazy Alchemist Podcast, we dive deep into Nick Bostrom’s Simulation Theory, exploring its fascinating implications for modern thought. But this idea isn’t as new as it seems. Join us as we journey through ancient philosophies that resonate with simulation concepts, like the Maya illusion in Hinduism, the Demiurge in Gnosticism, and Plato’s Allegory of the Cave. Discover how humanity’s oldest questions about reality and existence connect to today’s cutting-edge theories. Whether you’re a fan of philosophy, science, or just love questioning the nature of reality, this episode will leave you thinking: What if we’re living in a simulation?
