Wolfram shows us that our universe is … a simulation?

Stephen Wolfram in his “theory of everything” shows us a new paradigm, where with a “simple” rule of substitution and repetition the world can be described as we know it.

It describes an interconnected universe in a mesh that functions as space. Where time is the transition between states and (possibly) the speed of light is the maximum speed between frames. Sounds familiar?
A rule of substitution between connected nodes with a measure between each frame, this sounds to us … quite similar to the logic used in video games that we know today.

According to the theory, with the appropriate substitution rule we would be able to recreate our entire universe. We are a type of configuration in the universe.

On the other hand, it leaves many more interesting areas open. For example, if we are a configuration within these repetitions in the mesh. This would increase the probability that our configuration will move to another part of the universe. Making our existence more common than we think.

Personally, I do not think so crazy that we are a simulation. In some concepts of probability and statistics, I have always found some of their results quite curious and adjusted. But what if they are adjusted by the way the universe is described ?, and what if they are adjusted by the very configuration of the universe? The new discovery of the genius Wolfram leaves me wondering if he has actually shown that we live in a simulation.

If you want to know more about the theory, I leave the video of Date un Vlog where they explain more:
