Well, what is actually real? Maybe those aliens are also within a matrix run by extra-universal entities. And so on… an endless chain of matrices.
Hah !

It’s a false belief. The only computer big enough to run a simulation of the universe is the universe itself.

Yes but science accept as a dogma that the senses are right and that therefore the world is real.

You’re entering into the world of philosophy now though… And magical thinking (which is a symptom). Unless you’re a philosopher.

Yes, in fact this is a philosophical (and if it causes distress, psychiatric) problem , that is why it is nonsense to address it from a scientific point of view.

You can disagree but good luck convincing Elon that the world is real because someone in the world says so.

Computers are the dumbest machine imaginable. They do only what they are programmed to do. Nothing more, nothing less. I don’t believe they can be sentient because (unless quantum computing changes it) they are not free to choose. Some people say that humans only choose what their previous life programming teaches them is the best choice. Maybe I am romantic but I don’t think a contraption will be made that can feel. Maybe this is what will separate us. I don’t think there is a matrix. Fortunately (or unfortunately); this is real.
