Listen "We live in a simulation"
Episode Synopsis
From a Baudrillardian (versus Bostrum-esque) angle of simulation theory, I discuss why we live in a simulation, what that means in terms of everyday life, and how we can deal with it.
"THE SIMULACRUM IS NEVER WHAT HIDES THE TRUTH—IT IS TRUTH THAT HIDES THE FACT THAT THERE IS NONE. THE SIMULACRUM IS TRUE."
-Jean Baudrillard, Simulacra and Simulation (1981)
