The same may apply to "intelligence" --- aka AGI.
As far as I know, there is no proof that AGI can be produced or simulated by a binary logic algorithm running on a finite computer.
Hence, some people support the idea of "emergence" --- aka alchemy, aka PFM --- Pure Friggin Magic.
These physicists say they have *mathematical* proof that this is not possible.
What level of granularity of fidelity are you referring to?
Can we accurately simulate a smaller universe in this universe? If I understand correctly, according to this paper the answer is "no". Except how do we determine the simulation is inaccurate, without either knowing what is accurate (and thus having a correct simulation), or being unable to distinguish the inaccuracy from randomness (the simulation already won't perfectly predict a small part of the real universe due to such randomness, so you can't point to a discrepancy)? What does it mean for a simulation to be “inaccurate”?
Also, you don't need to simulate the entire universe to effectively simulate it for one person, e.g. put them in a VR world. From that person's perspective, both scenarios are the same.
Seems like quantum gravity theory might be missing something, no?
Looks like this result says we can’t simulate our plane in a computer. But the stuff in that simulation exists in P=n+1. So maybe the conclusion is “you can’t simulate n from within n+1” which means we can’t simulate our own plane, let alone our potential parent, and doesn’t mean we don’t have one
