The Simulation Argument
Topic: Miscellaneous 2:24 pm EST, Nov 20, 2002

"This website features scholarly investigations into the idea that you might literally be living in a computer simulation. Films like The Matrix and novels like Greg Egan's Permutation City have explored the idea that we might be living in virtual reality. But what evidence is there for or against this hypothesis? And what are the implications? The original paper featured here, "Are You Living in Computer Simulation?", presents a striking argument showing that we should take the simulation-hypothesis seriously indeed, and that if we deny it then we are committed to surprising predictions about the future possibilities for our species.

...Nick Bostrom, PhD, is a Lecturer at the Department of Philosophy at Yale University."
