Our Universe Is a Giant Computer: Evidence of a Simulated Universe | Dr. Melvin Vopson | Ep. 39

Physicist Dr. Melvin Vopson (University of Portsmouth) joins In Vivo to explain his groundbreaking Second Law of Infodynamics — the idea that information in the universe constantly compresses and minimizes itself, the exact opposite of the Second Law of Thermodynamics.In this episode he shows how this law can derive Newton’s law of gravity as an emergent computational optimization process, why viral genomes and digital data both delete information over time, and why dark matter may actually be the hidden “code” of reality itself. We also explore the difference between a literal simulation and a self-computing universe, ancient philosophy, and profound implications for biology and evolution.Links:Reality Reloaded: The Scientific Case for a Simulated Universe on Amazon - https://a.co/d/06WYzguLDr. Vopson at the University of Portsmouth - https://www.port.ac.uk/about-us/structure-and-governance/our-people/our-staff/melvin-vopsonIn Vivo on X - https://x.com/InVivoPodOnXIn Vivo on youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@InVivoPodcastIn Vivo on Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/in-vivo/id1775578563In Vivo on Amazon Podcasts - https://music.amazon.ca/podcasts/1ac4dbec-df46-4d1f-b0a1-742e9656ef44/in-vivo
