Summary of Physicists Proved the Universe Isn’t Real

00:00:00 - 00:10:00

This video discusses how three physicists won a Nobel Prize for proving that our universe is not locally real, but rather follows rules set by the laws of quantum mechanics. The video then goes on to discuss how reality is made of information and how consciousness obtains a clear purpose in a simulated reality. Finally, the video discusses how scientists may be able to simulate a human brain in the future.

• 00:00:00 Three scientists have recently won a Nobel Prize proving that our universe isn't locally real, but rather follows rules set by the laws of quantum mechanics. This thought experiment, known as the Einstein Podolsky Rosen Paradox, seems impossible, but is how the universe works. Our world is real because quantum mechanics says that objects always have definite properties, no matter what we are measuring them or not.
• 00:05:00 The physicists in Los Angeles have proposed a new theory of reality called the "quasi-crystal hypothesis." This theory suggests that reality is made of information, and that consciousness obtains a clear purpose in a simulated reality.
• 00:10:00 The University of Maryland physicists have been able to simulate a single nucleus of helium, and they think that if they can do the same thing with atoms, they will be able to simulate a molecule and an object the size of a few inches in 50 years. If this progress continues, it is possible that 100 years from now scientists will be able to simulate the human brain. However, if we are really living in a simulation, we are not programmed to do things because we have free will. Someone may have wanted to see what we would do without any instructions, and what would happen if we experienced reality for only minutes, rather than years.
