Their findings, published in the Journal of Holography Applications in Physics, go beyond simply suggesting that we're not living in a simulated world like The Matrix. They prove something far more profound: the universe is built on a type of understanding that exists beyond the reach of any algorithm.

Also nothing that says the computers running the simulation have to behave the same as ours, or even that the laws of physics in the simulating universe have to be the same as ours.

All they proved is that we currently aren't capable of simulating our universe. Congrats guys, great science thanks for the contribution to human knowledge.
