Is the universe thinking and learning on some level? This is a thorny subject, but one that some researchers are willing to consider. According to research that was published in the pre-print server ...

A University of Portsmouth physicist has explored whether a new law of physics could support the much-debated theory that we are simply characters in an advanced virtual world. The simulated universe ...
