Part 11/12:
The challenge remains: how could one verify or falsify the existence of a simulation? While concrete proofs may be unachievable within a potentially simulated framework, certain indicators may provide insight. For example, researchers propose the possibility of cosmic rays revealing energy limits indicative of a simulated environment. Moreover, the presence of error-correcting mechanisms in quantum computing might bear resemblance to structured responses in a simulated universe, hinting at underlying systematic controls.
Testing fundamental constants and searching for anomalies could also yield valuable insights. Yet, as of now, no definitive evidence has surfaced to indicate our reality is artificial.
