In a groundbreaking study, a research team from the University of British Columbia's Okanagan campus has mathematically proven that the universe cannot be a computer simulation. Utilizing the Gödel's incompleteness theorem and other mathematical theories, the researchers demonstrated that the fundamental layer of reality is based on 'non-algorithmic understanding,' which cannot be replicated or simulated by any algorithm. The study, published in the Journal of Holography Applications in Physics, suggests that even in the realm of quantum gravity theory, space-time itself is generated from a deeper layer of pure information, which remains incomprehensible to computational descriptions. The research concludes that any simulation is inherently algorithmic and subject to programming rules, but since the basic layer of reality is rooted in non-algorithmic understanding, the universe cannot be and will never be a simulation. This finding has significant implications for our understanding of the nature of reality and the limits of computational power.
