Wormhole Simulated in Quantum Computer Could Bolster Theory That the Universe is a hologram [Created a Baby Wormhole]
Live Science ^ | 11/30 | Ben Turner

Quantum experiment conducted on Google's Sycamore 2 computer transferred data across two simulated black holes, adding weight to the holographic principle of the universePhysicists have used a quantum computer to simulate the first-ever holographic wormhole and transport information through it.

The "baby" wormhole, created on Google's Sycamore 2 quantum computer was not created with gravity, but through quantum entanglement — the linking of two particles such that measuring one instantaneously affects the other. By entangling qubits, or quantum bits, in minuscule superconducting circuits physicists were able to create a portal through which information was sent. The experiment has the potential to further the hypothesis that our universe is a hologram stitched together by quantum information. The researchers published their findings Nov. 30 in the journal Nature(opens in new tab).

"This is a baby step for interrogating quantum gravity in the lab," lead author Maria Spiropulu(opens in new tab), a physicist at the California Institute of Technology, said at a Nov. 30 news conference. "When we saw the data, I had a panic attack. We were jumping up and down. But I'm trying to keep it grounded."

So this is God’s simulation, real life is the afterlife.

This is interesting stuff, presumably if the universe is indeed a hologram then it's seems unlikely that it could be created without some intelligent force behind it.

One could look at the scattering of planets and galaxies and say it's random, but I think that concept goes out the window when contemplating a holographic projection.

Random but with a natural order. Wouldn’t that be called physics?

We live in a computer simulation. And yes, afterlife is the real thing. A dimension without bounds.

RE: So this is God’s simulation, real life is the afterlife.

Hindus believe we are in a cosmic play for entertainment by their version of gods.
Sri Paramahansa Yogananda asked: “I understand the parts we have to play in your cosmic drama, Lord, but why did you have to add so much pain and suffering to good people’s lives?”

When one of those hologram asteroids crosses our astronomic path and collides with Earth causing a third magnitude extinction event.. then will we know it’s not a hologram?

What a pantload...

Way too many NPCs screwing with crap for this to be a simulation.

If two Black Holes are connected (the Wormhole), and as they say the put in entangled information into one and it will “pop out of the other black hole”. How would that happen.

Nothing comes out of a Black hole.

What I would think you would need is a Black Hole and White Hole connected so that whatever is pulled into the Black Hole would “pop out” of the White Hole.
