HOW TO TEST IF WE’RE LIVING IN A COMPUTER SIMULATION

NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI

Melvin M. Vopson, University of Portsmouth

Physicists have long struggled to explain why the universe started out with
conditions suitable for life to evolve. Why do the physical laws and constants
take the very specific values that allow stars, planets and ultimately life to
develop? The expansive force of the universe, dark energy, for example, is much
weaker than theory suggests it should be – allowing matter to clump together
rather than being ripped apart.

A common answer is that we live in an infinite multiverse of universes, so we
shouldn’t be surprised that at least one universe has turned out as ours. But
another is that our universe is a computer simulation, with someone (perhaps an
advanced alien species) fine-tuning the conditions.

The latter option is supported by a branch of science called information
physics, which suggests that space-time and matter are not fundamental
phenomena. Instead, the physical reality is fundamentally made up of bits of
information, from which our experience of space-time emerges. By comparison,
temperature “emerges” from the collective movement of atoms. No single atom
fundamentally has temperature.

This leads to the extraordinary possibility that our entire universe might in
fact be a computer simulation. The idea is not that new. In 1989, the legendary
physicist, John Archibald Wheeler, suggested that the universe is fundamentally
mathematical and it can be seen as emerging from information. He coined the
famous aphorism “it from bit”.

In 2003, philosopher Nick Bostrom from Oxford University in the UK formulated
his simulation hypothesis. This argues that it is actually highly probable that
we live in a simulation. That’s because an advanced civilisation should reach a
point where their technology is so sophisticated that simulations would be
indistinguishable from reality, and the participants would not be aware that
they were in a simulation.

Physicist Seth Lloyd from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the US
took the simulation hypothesis to the next level by suggesting that the entire
universe could be a giant quantum computer. And in 2016, business magnate Elon
Musk concluded “We’re most likely in a simulation” (see video above).

EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE

There is some evidence suggesting that our physical reality could be a simulated
virtual reality rather than an objective world that exists independently of the
observer.

Any virtual reality world will be based on information processing. That means
everything is ultimately digitised or pixelated down to a minimum size that
cannot be subdivided further: bits. This appears to mimic our reality according
to the theory of quantum mechanics, which rules the world of atoms and
particles. It states there is a smallest, discrete unit of energy, length and
time. Similarly, elementary particles, which make up all the visible matter in
the universe, are the smallest units of matter. To put it simply, our world is
pixelated.

The laws of physics that govern everything in the universe also resemble
computer code lines that a simulation would follow in the execution of the
program. Moreover, mathematical equations, numbers and geometric patterns are
present everywhere – the world appears to be entirely mathematical.

Another curiosity in physics supporting the simulation hypothesis is the maximum
speed limit in our universe, which is the speed of light. In a virtual reality,
this limit would correspond to the speed limit of the processor, or the
processing power limit. We know that an overloaded processor slows down computer
processing in a simulation. Similarly, Albert Einstein’s theory of general
relativity shows that time slows in the vicinity of a black hole.

Perhaps the most supportive evidence of the simulation hypothesis comes from
quantum mechanics. This suggest nature isn’t “real”: particles in determined
states, such as specific locations, don’t seem to exist unless you actually
observe or measure them. Instead, they are in a mix of different states
simultaneously. Similarly, virtual reality needs an observer or programmer for
things to happen.

Quantum “entanglement” also allows two particles to be spookily connected so
that if you manipulate one, you automatically and immediately also manipulate
the other, no matter how far apart they are – with the effect being seemingly
faster than the speed of light, which should be impossible.

This could, however, also be explained by the fact that within a virtual reality
code, all “locations” (points) should be roughly equally far from a central
processor. So while we may think two particles are millions of light years
apart, they wouldn’t be if they were created in a simulation.

POSSIBLE EXPERIMENTS

Assuming that the universe is indeed a simulation, then what sort of experiments
could we deploy from within the simulation to prove this?

It is reasonable to assume that a simulated universe would contain a lot of
information bits everywhere around us. These information bits represent the code
itself. Hence, detecting these information bits will prove the simulation
hypothesis. The recently proposed mass-energy-information (M/E/I) equivalence
principle – suggesting mass can be expressed as energy or information, or vice
versa – states that information bits must have a small mass. This gives us
something to search for.

I have postulated that information is in fact a fifth form of matter in the
universe. I’ve even calculated the expected information content per elementary
particle. These studies led to the publication, in 2022, of an experimental
protocol to test these predictions. The experiment involves erasing the
information contained inside elementary particles by letting them and their
antiparticles (all particles have “anti” versions of themselves which are
identical but have opposite charge) annihilate in a flash of energy – emitting
“photons”, or light particles.

I have predicted the exact range of expected frequencies of the resulting
photons based on information physics. The experiment is highly achievable with
our existing tools, and we have launched a crowdfunding site) to achieve it.

There are other approaches too. The late physicist John Barrow has argued that a
simulation would build up minor computational errors which the programmer would
need to fix in order to keep it going. He suggested we might experience such
fixing as contradictory experimental results appearing suddenly, such as the
constants of nature changing. So monitoring the values of these constants is
another option.

The nature of our reality is one of the greatest mysteries out there. The more
we take the simulation hypothesis seriously, the greater the chances we may one
day prove or disprove it.
