It's not too crazy of a question since Elon Musk has given public interviews in association with YCombinator [1] [2] (and was a founder in partly YC-associated OpenAI [3]), and the fact he seems to spend his limited time these days posting on X, streaming video games, memeing and presumably lurking on Reddit.

@Simorgh2015 · in “Where Are All the Aliens? What Is Fermi’s Paradox?”

Sam Altman and Elon Musk ponder whether we're all living in a simulation, as an explanation to the Fermi Paradox. Very eerie...! ▶ this video
