This episode explores the economic considerations of the simulation hypothesis, moving beyond the typical philosophical and scientific debates. It introduces Fordham University professor Evangelos Katsamakas's research, which posits that if we are living in a simulation, there must be a practical business case and a "why" behind its creation and maintenance. The episode then outlines three potential business models for a simulated universe, or "simuverse": a project (R&D), a service (SaaS), and a platform (SaaP), suggesting these could even be stages in an evolutionary path. Ultimately, the episode proposes that understanding the potential business model of our reality could provide insights into our existence and even suggest strategies for ensuring our continued simulation. This is an AI generated conversation about the article found here: https://theexperiencemachine.com/articles/if-were-simulated-whos-paying/
