Friday 17 January, 7:30 pm at Arthall “Are we living in a Simulation?” by Erin Steele. Free Entrance.

About the Talk
Swedish philosopher Dr. Nick Bostrom theorizes that some advanced species will one day create multiple simulated realities where the creatures living in the simulations will believe they are real.
Bostrom reasons that we humans may not be that origin species though, and that theoretically, we could already be living in one of many simulations.
The question is: how could you tell?
In the talk “Are We Living in a Simulation?” we will explore some of the philosophical questions surrounding simulation theory posed by Nick Bostrum, as well as economist Robin Hanson, theoretical physicist Sean Carroll, existential cartoonist Scott Adams, and science fiction writer Philip K. Dick.
