Ever wonder if we're all just NPCs in someone else's game? Elon dropped this bomb in a recent chat - he thinks there's a damn good chance reality is just code running on some mega-computer.



His logic? Look how insane video games have gotten in just a few decades. We went from Pong to photorealistic open worlds. Now extrapolate that forward a thousand years. What happens when the line between "game" and "reality" completely vanishes?

The math isn't comforting. If civilizations keep advancing, they'll eventually create simulations indistinguishable from base reality. And if that's possible, odds are it's already happened - maybe billions of times over. Which means statistically, we're probably in one of those sims right now.

Wild to think about while you're trading digital coins in a virtual marketplace, isn't it?
