You're stuck in traffic. A billboard flashes something you just typed. Your playlist knows your mood. A stranger finishes your sentence. Coincidence? Maybe. Or maybe you're starting to see the seams.
In this episode of Quantum Logic, we explore the Simulation Hypothesis, from Bostrom’s Trilemma to AI-powered social worlds and cosmic glitches.
Could artificial intelligence be the first system capable of proving reality isn’t real?
Whether you believe we are living in a simulation or base reality, this episode will challenge how you see everything — from your phone notifications to the fabric of spacetime itself.
🎙 Featuring:
Cosmic radiation anomalies and Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem
Let’s question everything.
