if a tree falls in the woods and no one is there to see it or hear it - does it make a noise? simulation theory isn't new - and it's just a theory.

Dr. Brian Keating: "God could be rendering our reality in a simulation" "Simulation hypothesis is a very deistic approach to things. There's a master simulator, perhaps. There's a base layer of reality. There's an operating system." Physicist Dr. Brian Keating told Mayim Bialik how the simulation idea mirrors ancient questions about creation, consciousness, and what lies beneath our perceived reality. He notes it requires "Infinite storage, infinite memory" as an extrapolation of what humanity has already built. A glitch could serve as evidence, but the absence of one isn't proof against it. Keating emphasizes the challenge of scientific testing: like unfalsifiable claims about God, it demands physical constraints and falsifiability rather than proof.
