If that was the case then shouldn't we be able to communicate with the operator

Read an article about this a while ago. This would be something if we could create a life like simulation to test this theory.

Okay, so it may be possible to create a universe inside a computer. But would it be moral? Humans are complex beings with feelings and relationships. Mightn’t there be something wrong in creating a whole fake world of them? Wouldn’t the responsibility for every action in that universe fall on our shoulders, and wouldn’t it be too much for us to bear?

Maybe. But that doesn’t matter. Because to some people, the idea of running a simulation would just be too tempting. And even if, for whatever reason, history simulators were illegal, it would just take a single person to run one and create our reality. It would take just one person, who’d consider the matter no more significant than a game of The Sims.

People may also have good reasons for creating such simulators, beyond just entertainment. Humanity could be facing death, forcing scientists to create our world as a massive diagnostic test. The simulation would help them find what went wrong with their real world and figure out how to save themselves.

That's true too I mean what are dreams in this simulation????? I mean I have seen sprits before and what level of simulation is the spritual world?

From what I've read about the theory, things like Deja-Vu, Ghost, Spirits, etc...are all "glitches" in the simulation.

If a simulation is advanced enough, those inside needn’t recognize it as a simulation at all. If you were to grow a brain in a vat and manipulate it with stimuli, it wouldn’t know it’s in a vat. It would assume itself a living, breathing, active person.

But even advanced simulations can have flaws, right? Wouldn’t we notice some imperfections, some “glitch in the Matrix”?

Maybe we do see such glitches in our everyday lives. The Matrix offered the example of déjà vu—when something seems inexplicably familiar, the simulation may be skipping like a scratched CD. Supernatural elements, like ghosts or miracles, could also be glitches. According to simulation theory, people really do witness these phenomena, and they do so because of bugs in the simulation’s code.

The Internet offers plenty of anecdotal evidence of these glitches. Keep your mind and eyes open, and maybe you’ll see some for yourself.

Doesn't sound convincing enough though.
