Is Our Spacetime an Error‑Correcting Code?

We examine how the mathematics of holography resembles quantum error‑correcting codes and what that means for our understanding of emergent spacetime. The discussion weighs whether this analogy hints at a simulated universe or simply reflects natural redundancies in gravity and information theory, and explores the limits of using such models to argue for an external simulator.
