Physicist: The Entire Universe Might Be A Neural Network (Not A ‘Simulation’)

Authored by Victor Tangermann via Futurism.com,

It’s not every day that we come across a paper that attempts to redefine reality.

But in a provocative preprint uploaded to arXiv this summer, a physics professor at the University of Minnesota Duluth named Vitaly Vanchurin attempts to reframe reality in a particularly eye-opening way – suggesting that we’re living inside a massive neural network that governs everything around us.

In other words, he wrote in the paper, it’s a “possibility that the entire universe on its most fundamental level is a neural network.”
