higher evidence and I'm not sure that reality is stable enough that I'm going to give it a sigma 5 probability that it exists. Although if you think about it, we kind of live in a sigma 2 or sigma 3 reality ourselves. I mean, sigma 1 is like one third probability that something is real. Sigma 2 is more like hundreds to one against it not being real. And then sigma 3 is I think about 10 or 20,000 to 1. So it was 1 in 10,000 probability that something is not what we think it is. And then sigma 5, the gold standard is like it's a billion to one. It's like a billion times more probable that something exists. But statistics, it's like gravity. It just is. Don't you believe in statistics? It's like I don't believe in statistics anymore than they believe in gravity. Oh no, but we know what gravity is.
