From the point of view of science and physics, is the simulation hypothesis true? What is the scientific refutation of this hypothesis? What do physicists say about this?
But what about the lack of atoms and energy for such a simulation?EPR said:You can't refute negatives(e.g. that there is no demon deceiving us or brain in a vat scenarios or God or some other noise). It is the arguments that count in the discussions. These are the reasons why this hypothesis is too far fetched and this thread will likely be locked if you don't lay out arguments which can be tested. Even from the point of view of 19th century physics this hypothesis could not be refuted for the reasons stated above.

There is currently no definitive answer to this question. Some scientists argue that a simulation hypothesis, in which our reality is a simulation created by advanced beings, could potentially simulate quantum physics. However, others argue that the complexity and randomness of quantum mechanics make it impossible to accurately simulate.
There is no concrete evidence that our reality is a simulation. The simulation hypothesis is a philosophical and theoretical concept, not a scientific theory. Some proponents of the simulation hypothesis point to the unexplained phenomena and strange coincidences in our universe as potential evidence, but these claims are not universally accepted by the scientific community.
If our reality is indeed a simulation, it would fundamentally change our understanding of quantum physics. It would mean that the laws and principles governing our universe are not inherent, but rather programmed by the creators of the simulation. This would also raise questions about the nature of reality and our ability to truly understand it.
While the simulation hypothesis is a popular idea, it does not necessarily provide a complete explanation for the mysteries of quantum mechanics. It may offer a possible explanation for some phenomena, but there are still many unanswered questions and complexities in quantum physics that a simulation may not be able to fully account for.
At this time, there are no known tests or experiments that could definitively prove or disprove the simulation hypothesis. This is because the hypothesis is based on philosophical and theoretical ideas, rather than empirical evidence. However, some scientists are exploring the possibility of using advanced technology to detect potential glitches or anomalies in our reality that could suggest a simulated universe.
