あらすじ・解説
This episode explores the concept of the simulation hypothesis, which posits that our reality is a sophisticated computer simulation. Physicist Melvin Vopson argues that information is a fundamental building block of the universe and that its physical properties could support this hypothesis. He has developed a theory called the second law of infodynamics, which suggests that the universe's tendency toward symmetry is a result of information entropy reduction, mirroring the way computers optimize their systems. Vopson proposes an experiment that would aim to detect the information content of elementary particles through particle-antiparticle collisions, potentially providing evidence for the simulation hypothesis and confirming the existence of a "fifth state of matter."
