Rooms of algebraic theology

The supercomputers I’m showing here are powerful almost beyond human understanding. They can map every molecule of the billions on a human DNA string; scrutinise at the atomic level the collision between two pieces of plutonium in an exploding bomb; or sketch the gravitational pull of every star in the galaxy upon every other star in the galaxy. These are not questions that humans could grapple with given plenty of time, a notebook and a sharp pencil. [They] are omniscient and omnipresent and these are not qualities in which we find a simulacrum of ourselves – these are qualities that describe the Divine. [It] is not that these computers might one day resemble humans; it is that they already resemble gods.

The largest virtual universe ever simulated, 25 billion virtual galaxies on a grid made of 2 trillion digital particles, laid bare for everyone to witness.
