Scientists have again declared that we live in the matrix Columbia University astronomer David Kipping took a close look at these propositions, known as the "Bostrom trilemma," and proved that there is a 50% chance that we are actually living in a simulation. Kipping began his calculations (https://bit.ly/3BjyaED) by turning the trilemma into a dilemma. He tied the first two positions together, since in both cases the end result is no simulation. Thus, the dilemma contrasts the physical hypothesis with the simulation hypothesis. Thus, the scientist assigned the so-called a priori probability to the models, that is, the probability at which there is no knowledge that supports the onset of each of these models. In this case, each of the theories gets a 50% probability. After complex calculations, the astronomer concludes that the probability that we are living in a simulation is equal to the probability that we are in the physical world. But if people ever come up with such a "virtual reality", these calculations will radically change.
