What if the universe is code?
Some scientists now believe reality itself might be an artificial simulation—a cosmic computer program running so perfectly that we mistake it for existence.
Physicist Dr. Melvin Vopson argues that the universe optimizes information like digital software, calling it proof of a simulated design. Others cite quantum mechanics, pixel-like Planck units, and the universe’s speed limits as hints of an underlying code.
But critics, citing Gödel’s incompleteness theorems, argue that true reality can’t be simulated. The universe, they say, contains truths no computer could ever calculate.
Whether we’re living in base reality or a cosmic game, one thing is certain—our search to understand existence might be the simulation trying to understand itself.
