“Let’s assume the whole universe is a quantum system… when you take out the observer participant, you have a problem of frozen time. The universe does not evolve, it doesn’t change, nothing happens.”
Alan Wallace, Lecturer, Scholar, and Prolific Writer on Tibetan Buddhism.

This could be true as a poor metaphor but there's infinitely close to 0 chance that Existence is so fucking easy that humans understand it.. Not to mention humans that obviously aren't among the most qualified minds. Nonetheless people are drooling over these kinds of mumbo-jumbo thinking they've connected to the Truth of the universe. There's a whole circus of invisible things going on, that we don't even know we don't know.. and even if we get to know about their existence it doesn't mean we understand them.
We're like butterflies looking at the moon and saying: "Look! It's flying too!". But unbeknownst to the insignificant critter there's the fact that the moon travels along a straight path through curved spacetime! That has NOTHING to do with the principle of using a surface to create negative pressure in a gas and thus generating lift. The metaphor of a flying moon may be beautiful, but it keeps the butterfly away from knowing the Truth.
Just like Einstein came along and obliterated the ideas of reality of the butterfly, a future AI will come along and obliterate Einstein's ideas. The universe is 14 billion years old, but it has an unfathomable time ahead to live. Only a moron would think that morons could sort out how Existence works after just a few centuries of modern science.
Human hubris and ignorance are probably our most notable attributes.
Euh, unless in a Lennon song, dreamers and dreaming has a pejorative connotation and the punch line came quite as an anticlimax; sure an entanglement of "centers of the universe" is fascinating but isn't the shtick to awaken? Oh … solid science it is and shunyata is quite unmanifested so both feet on the ground, look at the sky and know more about spinning around without getting dizzy!
Each of us has a powerful, God-designed REALITY SIMULATOR in his/her head π Nothing is real, we CREATE ("calculate") everything π That's why "the world" is mathematics, NOT matter π
The TRUE reality is God/Universal Consciousness/Universal Energy…
