Book by Rizwan Virk, an MIT-trained computer scientist and games entrepreneur, Tarcher 2025, arguing that AI, quantum physics and contemplative traditions are all describing one thing, a reality that renders only when observed.
The computing analogies are the author’s own field and the physics chapters are where a reader’s guard has to stay up. It sits beside Closer Encounters as the other book on this site claiming reality is engineered rather than merely observed, and beside Knowledge Filter as an account of why such a claim would be hard to see from inside.
