Cultural Impact

After Nick Bostrom’s 2003 paper, the simulation hypothesis moved far beyond academic philosophy and exploded into popular culture, movies, podcasts, and everyday conversations. Think of it like an idea that started in quiet university halls and then suddenly went viral — reaching millions of people…
