The discussion centers on whether the simulation hypothesis should be modeled exclusively on quantum computers. It posits that our universe could be a simulation created by an advanced civilization, with quantum mechanics potentially being a construct of that simulation. There is skepticism about the scientific validity of the simulation hypothesis, with a call for credible peer-reviewed research to substantiate the claims. The conversation concludes with a note that further discussion is contingent upon the presentation of such scientific evidence. The thread ultimately emphasizes the need for rigorous scientific backing in exploring the simulation hypothesis.

In the simulation hypothesis, should the simulation be modeled only on a quantum computer?

In the simulation hypothesis our universe is a simulation in a different universe, of which we know nothing. QM could be just an invention of whoever decided to simulate it. We have no knowledge of the computers that may or may not exist in that universe.

I don’t think that the simulation hypothesis is scientific. If you wish to discuss it further, please send me a peer reviewed paper from a credible scientific journal (impact factor >1.0) and then we can discuss that paper.

Until then this thread is closed
 
I do not have a good working knowledge of physics yet. I tried to piece this together but after researching this, I couldn’t figure out the correct laws of physics to combine to develop a formula to answer this question. Ex. 1 - A moving object impacts a static object at a constant velocity. Ex. 2 - A moving object impacts a static object at the same velocity but is accelerating at the moment of impact. Assuming the mass of the objects is the same and the velocity at the moment of impact...
