This Podcast Does Not Exist

Are We Living in a Simulation?

Have you ever wondered if your life is just a giant video game? This week, Josh and Jill explore the idea of simulated universes inspired by a recent episode of “Welcome to Earth Stories.” They break down the episode “This Person Does Not Exist,” where a scientist creates an AI companion that turns out to be more real than he is.

Is it possible that we are all just part of a giant experiment? The hosts examine the concept of “observable universes” and consider whether an advanced civilization could be manipulating our reality. They also discuss the possibility of multiple versions of ourselves, drawing parallels between the episode’s themes and listener experiences with doppelganger phone calls.

Tune in to the “Welcome to Earth Stories Afterparty” for a mind-bending discussion about the nature of reality and the potential for simulated worlds. Are you ready to question everything you thought you knew?
