Do we live in a Matrix? One new study poses the question and puts science to the test.
An age-old theory is that we all live in a matrix or a computer simulation run by some higher being or something of the like. A new scientific study making the rounds online dives into the idea, exploring whether or not we're nothing more than pre-determined beings in a larger simulation. A new study in the American Institute of Physics' AIP Advances journal suggests a new physics law could prove we do, in fact, live in a simulation.
He added,"The second law of infodynamics states that the"information entropy" , must remain constant or decrease over time—up to a minimum value at equilibrium." "My study indicates that the second law of infodynamics appears to be a cosmological necessity. It is universally applicable with immense scientific ramifications," Vopson added."We know the universe is expanding without the loss or gain of heat, which requires the total entropy of the universe to be constant. However we also know from thermodynamics that entropy is always rising. I argue this shows that there must be another entropy—information entropy—to balance the increase.
