i'm gonna try to defend this guy because he sounded like a very nice guy talking to bob right uh... regarding your first point that they would find that interesting i think the idea is well if they were gonna find that interesting they've already found out what happens when uh... people find out there in a simulation probably right like so that you could you can learn from that. So maybe that's one defense of that regarding your other point that why now why just because because what will the experiment experimental finding really prove it'll prove oh here's something that might lend weight to this hypothesis they're not going to definitively prove that they're notGoing to find like little ones and zeros in
David and Tamler discuss famous 'split brain' experiments pioneered by Roger Sperry and Michael Gazzaniga. What happens when you cut off the main line of communication between the left and right hemispheres of our brain? Why under certain conditions do the the left and right brains seem like they have different abilities and desires? What does this tell us about the ‘self’? Do we have two consciousnesses, but only that can speak? Does the left brain bully the right brain? Are we all just a bundle of different consciousnesses with their own agendas?

Plus, physicists may be able to determine whether we’re living in a computer simulation – but is it too dangerous to try to find out?
