{"I think most likely — this is just about probability — there are many, many simulations," he added. "You might as well call them reality, or you could call them multiverse."
The "substrate" on which these simulations are running, whatever it may be, is probably quite boring, at least compared to the simulations themselves, Musk further told Rogan.
"Why would you make a simulation that's boring? You'd make a simulation that's way more interesting than base reality," Musk said, citing the video games and movies that humanity makes, which are "distillation[s] of what's interesting about life."} https://www.space.com/41749-elon-musk-living-in-simulation-rogan-podcast.html
{"Is the universe just an enormous, fantastically complex simulation? If so, how could we find out, and what would that knowledge mean for humanity?
These were the big questions that a group of scientists, as well as one philosopher, tackled on April 5 during the 17th annual Isaac Asimov Debate here at the American Museum of Natural History. The event honors Asimov, the visionary science-fiction writer, by inviting experts in diverse fields to discuss pressing questions on the scientific frontiers."} https://www.space.com/32543-universe-a-simulation-asimov-debate.html
{"I began bemused. The notion that humanity might be living in an artificial reality — a simulated universe — seemed sophomoric, at best science fiction.
But speaking with scientists and philosophers on "Closer to Truth," I realized that the notion that everything humans see and know is a gigantic computer game of sorts, the creation of supersmart hackers existing somewhere else, is not a joke. Exploring a "whole-world simulation," I discovered, is a deep probe of reality."} https://www.space.com/30124-is-our-universe-a-fake.html
{"The universe we live in may not be the only one out there. In fact, our universe could be just one of an infinite number of universes making up a "multiverse."
Though the concept may stretch credulity, there's good physics behind it. And there's not just one way to get to a multiverse — numerous physics theories independently point to such a conclusion. In fact, some experts think the existence of hidden universes is more likely than not."} https://www.space.com/18811-multiple-universes-5-theories.html
Interesting how this diagram looks similar to a hard disc drive.
Universe 1 to Universe 6 represent bubble universes. Five of them have different physical constants than our universe has." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse#Classification_schemes

If this world is part of an interactive recording and projection of time and space, then looking for patterns and synchronicity might reveal some clues. Indeed, by observing numbers, big events in history or anything in general, some peculiar connections could be perceived. For example, a lot of things intersect with the number 911 and sometimes its quite uncanny.

Various books and movies have been providing clues for decades.
