The Simulation: Unintended Consequences of a Box Universe
Summary
An aging programing genius has created what the scientific world said was impossible: a fully functional independent virtual universe contained within a computer simulation, in our reality. His goal: to advance mankind in its evolution from a created life-form to become the creator of life. Dr. Noor Bada combines his magical virtual universe and a sentient AI to inhabit it. Giving the AI one command: “Go as you will and grow strong.” His path from seeking assistance in this evolutionary step for mankind devolves into an destructive chance at revenge. This all leads to an ending that has implications far beyond his understanding for both his creations and the universes he’s tampered with. Once the box is opened, Dr. Bada finds you can’t stop the nature of life. The Simulation: Unintended Consequences of a Box Universe is a cautionary romp through what may come to be our own future.
