On the Real-Time Criterion in Physical Resource Arguments Against the Simulation Hypothesis

Vazza (2025) derives physical resource bounds for simulations of the Universe and Earth under physics like our own. For a low-resolution Earth model, the paper estimates that one simulated second could require roughly 4.2 x 10^13 to 3.0 x 10^15 seconds of host computation, and la...
