The properties of black holes challenge our understanding of space-time, revealing that the amount of information they can store depends not on their volume but on their surface area. This finding supports the holographic principle, suggesting our universe may be a simulation. As the concept of 'real' becomes ambiguous, black holes are seen as concrete yet ultimately flawed representations of what exists beyond our current framework of understanding. The discussion leads to the notion that space-time itself may not be fundamental, implying that black holes serve merely as a superficial data structure for deeper phenomena beyond our perceivable reality.
