Next, they’ll add AI fauna and an intelligent race much like our own. They’ll jack the speed up to high and use it to see how problems in our own future might arise and be dealt with.
Every so often the administration may have to make some sort of “god” type AI to pop in and try to keep things heading on track in the directions we need it to go. I can’t wait till they get up to traveling to their moon and seeing if they decide to fake it, or go at it for real. Hopefully we’ll be able to keep the simulation going long enough without it destroying itself to see if they can solve interstellar travel in a way we can copy. Otherwise it’ll need reset so we can try again.
speed it up 1000x and wait for them to develope sci-fi tech and then reverse engineer the tech and steal the tech to adapt it into our physical reality. /n
🤯
plottwist: we are the simulation and get abused to develope sci-fi tech for our simulation overlords… 😱😸
You just reminded me of an awesome short story I read a long time ago
Thank you for this.
Meanwhile, one level up:
“Hey, look! Our planetary simulation has developed it’s own planetary simulation.”
“Cool! Lets set up a pool how many recursive simulations there will be in 100 years.”
😉Are we sure it won’t create a paradox and destroy the universe?
Yes. I think so. It just takes an exponential amount of energy and/or time. At some point it will stop due to energy limitations. Or will be stopped because computation time approaches infinity, even if all energy in the universe is available.
Also, now I think about the movie “The Thirteenth Floor”.
Earth 2.0’s soft launch was met with modest success, but some far-right critics claim the day 1 patch, which removed racism, bigotry, and hate based on identity, makes the game “unplayable.”
“What do you mean everyone is equal and I can’t just pay to get ahead? This game sucks, nothing like real life”
I just hope it’s not plague with micro transactions like the previous version.
I’ve seen the futurama episode about this
Great episode.
I’m tempted to believe in reality, some kind of “mutually assured destruction” scenario would occur.
If I was to create a simulation, I would add in a recursive condition wherein the detection of another simulation would crash the system.
But the theme the episode really touched on was whether it was right to tell another the truth about reality. Maybe that reality isn’t another layer up, but that God exists, or maybe not.
Assuming you found out we really were in a simulation, what is the right thing to do? Force everyone to learn the truth? Hide your knowledge of it?
If you thought: “I can tell the people who want to know”, you’ve just created a cult.
Personally, I’m convinced we are not in a simulation. But that’s only assuming the level above us is somewhat similar (a universe that started with a big bang and formed stars and planets and evolution etc).
Think of it this way: an advanced society would need to evolve more than us, meaning more filters to pass before achieving this kind of power. This means unlimited power and unlimited processing power.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Chipmaker Nvidia has shown off a clone of our entire planet that could help meteorologists simulate and visualize global weather patterns at an “unprecedented scale,” according to a press release.
Customers can access the digital twin through an API, allowing “virtually any user to create AI-powered emulations to speed delivery of interactive, high-resolution simulations ranging from the global atmosphere and local cloud cover to typhoons and turbulence.”
“Climate disasters are now normal — historic droughts, catastrophic hurricanes and generational floods appear in the news with alarming frequency,” said Nvidia founder and CEO Jensen Huang in a statement.
For instance, the Central Weather Administration of Taiwan wants to use the platform to forecast the precise locations of where typhoons will make landfall.
Especially with the advent of generative AI tools, the tech world has become ravenous for Nvidia’s graphics cards or GPUs, which not only power those models, but platforms like Earth-2 as well.
By turning its attention to climate change and the disastrous consequences of extreme weather, Nvidia is weaponizing its AI tech for a fight that’s only bound to grow in the near future.

Worst. Game. Ever.
So, lemme get this straight. We fucked up the climate with industrialisation and uncontrolled capitalism, through energy consumption. Now, the #1 industrial company (that’s two for two, if you’re counting) in chip making is using one of the most energy (and there we go, 100% 🥳) intensive technology at our disposal to try and eventually have a shot at maybe keeping the climate in somewhat of a check… Am I the only one seeing this? 😶
That’s the energy equivalent of giving every kid and teacher guns to “stop school shootings”. 🙃
It’s brutal… if you think like a human.
I was letting you, but unfortunately you didn’t even come close to getting anything straight 😂 from the presuppositions, through the arithmetic, all the way to the root cause analysis. You should stay in school, or better yet consider a transfer to a school that teaches in a language you can comprehend before it’s too late
If you can’t count to 3, that’s a you problem, dude…
Sick burn bro so relevant
Ray tracing. And the rest of us too!
Isn’t this like season 3 of Westworld?
How does generative AI made these models more energy efficient, as they claim? Does the AI make the models less accurate?
My guess is that it’s able to make an educated guess based on previous simulations. Something that would require a lot of computation to get there procedurally. But again, I’m guessing.
