Physicist from the University of Portsmouth in the UK. Melvin Vopson published a remarkable work that reinterprets the gravity.
In his article published in AIP Advances magazine, Vopson defines gravity as a direct force, but as an attempt to make itself more organized. This approach has brought up the discussions that the universe was a computer simulation.
According to Vopson, the universe works like a computer algorithm and provides data compression and calculation efficiency:
“This study is another example that the universe makes information compression and calculation optimization. This supports the possibility that the universe may be a structure based on simulation or calculation.”
This view is similar to the hypothesis that the philosopher Nick Bostrom suggests that our reality could be a computer simulation created by an advanced civilization, similar to the film “The Matrix”.
Vopson also refers to the concept of the “Second Law of Knowledge Dynamics” in his work. According to this law, the entropy of any system either remains constant or increases over time. Vopson argues that the gravity in the universe is trying to reduce entropy by bringing the substance together, and that it looks like a computer’s arranging and compressing the data.
