==In Popular Culture==

Simulation hypothesis's most notable appearance in popular culture was in <i>[[The Matrix (series)|The Matrix]]</i> as well as other appearances such as in <i>[[Inception]]</i> or <i>[[Rick and Morty]]</i>.<ref>[http://rickandmorty.wikia.com/wiki/M._Night_Shaym-Aliens! M. Night Shaym-Aliens!]</ref> The [[Orion's Arm Universe Project]] uses the term 'Simulationism' to describe a range of religious and philosophical beliefs based around this premise.<ref>[http://www.orionsarm.com/eg-article/4a48a48238f01 The belief that Reality is in fact a Simulation]</ref>

Exposition in the novel <i>[[Accelerando]]</i> by [[Charles Stross]] mentions an ancestor simulation project by the Church of Latter-Day Saints, with the stated goal of offering religious salvation.  The goal later expands to simulate "all possible human minds."

A popular cautionary trope is [[simulation hell]].
