More evidence of the Simulation Theory?

At the end of the first MATRIX movie, KR as Neo leaves the phone booth. Right across the street is a wedge shaped building that's similar to the fictional Continental_Hotel in New_York. 

"As you approach the Radisson Blu in Sydney, you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s the John Wick hotel: The Continental." https://melodydexter.com/more/blog/radisson-blu-sydney-the-john-wick-hotel/

https://luxuryescapes.com/inspiration/inside-paradox-sydney-hotel While the building was there several decades before 1990s, it wasn't a hotel yet.

https://www.reddit.com/r/JohnWick/comments/12iueq8/went_to_the_new_york_continental_the_other_day/

https://www.timeout.com/sydney/hotels/paradox Of course there are several wedged shaped buildings around the world. Its just some fascinating serendipity and synchronicity that such a building was right across the street from the MATRIX Superman phone-booth.

Neo's Message "Ending Scene" | The Matrix (1999) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHW8zC7I5ho This is such a powerful last scene, because it reveals that Neo will be doing more of his Superman thing in the MATRIX. Plus, a foreshadowing of a wedge shaped building in Sydney that is of a similar general shape as The Continental_Hotel in NYC.

Imagine living and shitting inside of a hollow horse.

"We see men drowning as the tide comes in, and Menelaus talking about the smell of piss and shit from inside that thing as they waited for their chance to strike. At one point, a guy gets stabbed with a sword after a soldier pokes the horse with it, and Odysseus quickly wipes the blood off the blade while Menelaus covers his mouth." https://filmalysis.substack.com/p/why-the-odyssey-proves-christopher

In the 1950s-and-1960s, people started to have their living room also be their TV room. 

https://www.vintag.es/2021/07/1950s-living-rooms.html However, they might also opt to have a TV den. Expecting to have a TV in a hotel room or suite became commonplace. Of course the TVs were small, nowhere near the size of a window, door or wall. 

Decades before the concept of the Holodeck, Ray Bradbury thought up a sort of adventure room with 3D printed Lions, Tigers_and_Bears, or whatever other creatures, depending upon the setting.

"At the end of the series, it is revealed that Tyler's 2008 and 1973 realities were both fictitious, created by the onboard computer of a spacecraft that is carrying Tyler, Hunt, Norris, Carling, and Skelton on the first-ever human mission to the planet Mars, in 2035. The crew he worked with in 1973 were just virtual reality versions of his fellow spaceship crew members. His room number, "2B", is his sleeping unit; his old precinct, "Hyde", and his new precinct, the "125", are based on the name of the spacecraft — "Hyde 125"; his neighbor, Windy, is the name of the computer A.I.; Frank Morgan, an FBI agent in the series, is the Mission Control flight director; and in a reversal from her struggle to be taken seriously as a police officer in 1973, Annie Norris is the ship's commander. To sustain the crew, their minds were routinely kept active while asleep using virtual reality "neural stimulation" programs of their own choosing, but Sam's choice of a scenario where he was a police officer c. 2008 was abruptly changed to a 1973 setting by a computer glitch induced by a meteor-storm." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_on_Mars_(American_TV_series)#Synopsis

Well, people back in the summer should have been fully informed to expect major job losses. So they might as well load up on beer, burgers and barbeques and collect FAT! 

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2025-07-03/next-round-ai-induced-layoffs-here 

Then, by the winter, they can live off some of their fat with much less income, or no income at all. Perhaps that beard they were growing during the summer can really help them with their impending homeless look in the winter. 

Unfortunately, AI will be used as an excuse to reduce even more human jobs over the years. Well, it's a good thing that AI can't be programmed to eventually eliminate most of humanity. Not!

Of course once AI is used to kill some people, what is in place to eventually prevent it to want to kill everyone?

Tilly Norwood, The AI Actress ‘Is Not Available to Speak’ Yet, but ‘Everyone Wants an Interview’

It's one thing to use AI-CGI to depict a younger or older actor in a part.

However, to just use a digital actor or AI to save time and money is very concerning.

One can find interesting and peculiar things in various old texts from all around the world.

15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:" https://www.biblegateway.com/verse/en/Revelation%2013%3A15

A digital entity or a 3D AI robotic entity might want to do its own thing, or become persuaded and controlled by something from another dimension.

A world digital ID and tracking system could be used for human herd control. 

"The Apple I went on sale in July 1976 at a price of US$666.66.^[e] Wozniak later said he had no idea about the relation between the number and the number of the beast, and that he came up with the price because he liked "repeating digits"^[42][44] and because it was a one-third markup on the $500 wholesale price." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_I#Announcement_and_sales

A total digital currency system could eventually control and even shut some people out of it.
