27: Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - a podcast by Radio Wolfgang

What if our universe is just a giant computer? In The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy the Earth is just a computer calculating the meaning of life, and in this episode the boys tackle one of the boldest claims of modern science: that everything we think, feel, and touch is simply the product of some fundamental computer code running in the background. Buckle your ears in, it’s time to peek behind the curtain.

Featuring: Prof Juergen Schmidhuber
