Despite the inherently probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics, do you think the universe is deterministic?

No, but I think we’re statistically likely to be in a simulation of the universe. Suppose a sufficiently advanced civilization is able to create an advanced machine capable of simulating the universe. It stands to reason that they’d be able to simulate it multiple times, as their technology improves, they can simulate it more times. There could be nearly infinite simulations, but only one real universe. What are the odds that this universe is the real one?
