There are different "simulations" possible
1) Universe sim. Everything down to the smallest particle (used by physicists)
2) Earth sim (entire population sim, Matrix style)
3) Personal sim (just the perceptions an individual would experience)

@elonmusk The 'people' in the sim can be:
1) Real -- when the sim is a complete reality (Universe sim).
2) Real -- existing outside the sim, but unknowingly living in it (matrix, advanced MMO, etc.).
3) AI constructs -- who think they are real.

@elonmusk Assumption: Computing power will soon advance to the level required to run a countless number of "sims"
Personal sims will reach this level first, followed by Earth sims. Universe sims may not be possible.
Sims with AI constructs are far more likely than sims with real people.

@elonmusk This is just a framework to think about it, not advocacy.
