GM.
In the 17th century, we believed the universe was a giant machine, shaped by the physics and biology of the time. Earlier than that believed it was hydraulics based. Today, we compare the brain to a computer and seriously entertain the idea that we live in a simulation.
But history shows us that the cutting-edge science, technology and theories of each era often lead to flawed views of reality. The mechanical universe was eventually disproven, and just like that, our computer-based models will evolve too.
What I’m trying to say is, we don’t live in a fucking computer.
