Dinner Debate Over Simulation Odds
Elon Musk shared a curious dinner anecdote on Twitter, where he asked two top scientists about their views on the simulation hypothesis. The answers were so contradictory that Musk himself drew a comparison to the double-slit experiment.
The physicist reportedly said 0%, while the computer scientist claimed 100%. Musk described the situation as "like a double-slit experiment, but with humans." The scientists allegedly answered "simultaneously," making the situation even more surreal.
Whether this was a real event or a metaphor for the incompatibility of different scientific schools of thought remains unclear. What is certain: the simulation question apparently divides expert opinions as well.
