The people who create the virtual worlds that we a, that we inhabit, they're basily the gods ye that world there. I feel like is manifestly not true if you're alive for more than a couple minutes and just look at what goes on in reality. If it turns out that all this, this physical, luberinn ordinary life, is designed by a god, does that make it suffocating and ulimited and the in the ameer?

We spend more time in digital, virtual spaces than ever. But are those places really real? If they are, does that mean we could be living in virtual reality right now? Or does it even make sense to ask such a question? Philosopher David Chalmers joins Adam to talk about consciousness, the nature of reality, and the limits of digital technology.
