Premise
A future civilisation designs a universe-scale simulation. That system is not separate from us—it is our present reality.
About Me
I am a 30-year-old science enthusiast from Switzerland with a strong curiosity for understanding how reality works. Alongside my interest in science, I explore the world of software engineering as a hobby, building and experimenting through code. I enjoy combining analytical thinking with creativity, using programming as a tool to explore ideas, solve problems, and deepen my understanding of complex systems.
The Theory
Our reality is the output of a simulation built in our future—the very same system we inhabit now. Creator and creation collapse into a single, closed causal loop.
Mechanism
The “Big Bang” corresponds to a programmed boot event. Physical law encodes the simulation’s rules; time emerges within the loop.
Implications
Agency flows both ways: our descendants author the system that authors us. Progress in AI and quantum tech is the pathway.
Is this different from a standard simulation argument?
Yes. It specifies identity between the future simulation and our current world, forming a self-originating loop—not merely “a” simulation we’re inside.
What reinterprets the Big Bang?
An intentional initialization event: the moment the system parameters (constants, laws, seeds) are set and execution begins.
Why think this is plausible?
Extrapolations from AI, quantum computing, and scalable computation suggest universe-level modelling may become feasible to our descendants.
