Are we living in a simulation? "There's a one in billions chance we're in base reality" - Elon Musk

"The strongest argument for us being in a simulation, probably being in a simulation, is the following: 40 years ago, we had Pong, two rectangles and a dot…That is what games were. Now, 40 years later, we have photorealistic 3D simulations with millions of people playing simultaneously, and it’s getting better every year. And soon we’ll have virtual reality, augmented reality. If you assume any rate of improvement at all, the games will become indistinguishable from reality." - Elon Musk

Yup, and by his words if humanity continue advancing even in smallest percent, creating billions of simulations in future is for sure, so the chance that we are living in one is very high.

Human will produce super intelligence in a decade time. They will keep on explore the unknown, and eventually tell us what reality actually is.
