Are we living in a computer simulation? The question seems absurd. Yet there are plenty of smart people who are convinced that this is not only possible but perhaps likely.

A physicist at the University of Portsmouth in the United Kingdom claims to have new evidence that we're living in a Matrix-style computer simulation.

Simulation theory explores the provocative idea that our reality is a computer simulation, igniting debates on consciousness and the nature of existence.

Is your life really your life, or is it actually the dream of a butterfly? Or is it a complex computer simulation indistinguishable from "real" reality?

In order for a computer to simulate reality, then, the machine would need to have enough power to actually create the phenomena that we experience within its simulated environment.
