90% of Americans believe at least one conspiracy theory

It's also based on a "Law" of "Infodynamics" which is something he "discovered." So in other words it's all BS.
There are a growing contingent of reputable scientists that subscribe to the possibility that we are living in a simulation, including Elon Musk and Neil DeGrasse Tyson. Also, Vopson did not "discover" "Infodynamics." The research field of information dynamics (infodynamics) has conceptually been around since the 40s. The idea that information has energy associated with it and thus the thermodynamic principals of entropy apply goes back to the 60s. Numerous papers have been published in the 80s and 90s about biological information dynamics, entropy, thermodynamics of ecological succession and evolution and mathematical modeling of life as a manifestation of the second law of thermodynamics.

Vopson is not the first person to coin the phrase "infodynamics" nor is her the first one to equate Informational Entropy to the second law of Thermodynamics. Stanley Salthe wrote a book called "Understanding Complexity" in 2001 that has been used as text for upper level Computing and Information Systems courses at various colleges where he defined Infodynamics and discussed the entropy of information and data storage.

Vopson didn't discover it, but is the first to use this law to substantiate claims that we live in a simulation. Infodynamics is absolutely not BS, and while I will stop short of saying we live in a simulation, I will say there is data that suggests it, and highly intelligent well-educated scientists believe it to be a possibility.
