"VERY FAKE MULTIVERSE!"
He really only takes one puff off the joint and hands it back. Says he never smokes pot. And has a lot of positive comments to say, despite the host trying to bait him with negative comments.
Well,he has a point!
We burn fossil fuels because it’s economical, and all natural.
Other than that, this is old news.
I own a movie called “The 13th Floor” that addresses this. It’s a great story.
Watching The Matrix while on Weed is no way to go thru life, Elon................
Windmills and solar electric or heating systems that can never break even are quite dumb also.
He needs to get off the bong...
"VERY FAKE MULTIVERSE!"
The logic is that because we can conceive of simulations, we probably are living in one? Not convincing.
Except in the sense God is running the simulation.
He needs to lay off the DMT.
The earth is supposedly roughly 5B yrs old and we are nowhere close to creating a universe so I call BS on his idea. Any civilizations that have developed probably have remained within their star systems. The distances are just to great to offset the resources required to leave.
“and in that vast period of time he says it’s statistically likely a civilisation has figured out how to make a fully believable simulation”
And it’s equally likely that an omnipotent being created the universe with all its natural rules and corresponds with it continuously.
You can think up this crap all day long and as long as it happened before the observable “beginning of time”, it’s all valid...because it’s all speculation.
Musk needs to have a vacation in the Carribbean and stop toking on the radio.
That's acknowledging a deity. God would be the ultimate being that isn't a simulation. Its essence is unknowable to us, even with belief in its existence. (nobody follows my logic, but it makes sense to me <^..^> )
“Musk’s Matrix-style simulation hypothesis comes from the fact that the Universe has been around 13.8 billion years, and in that vast period of time he says it’s statistically likely a civilisation has figured out how to make a fully believable simulation.”
If we’re in a simulation, then we have no idea how long the actual universe has been around, and no way of determining that, thus we would have no evidence for how statistically likely any of this would actually be...

He sounds pretty much like any other pot head I’ve ever tried to have a conversation with.
Brilliant mind.
But I wondered if Musk really understood how electric cars work:
Like, wow, dude.
If life as we know it is really a sim, then who’s in control?
