Does anyone else get the sinking feeling that we might be already living in a simulated world?

Firstly: it's clear that we can't know for sure whether we live in a simulated world or not.<br><br>But throughout the years of being alive, I've been getting an increasingly strong feeling that we're living in a simulation. I can't explain why exactly. I'm already pretty sure I'm a simulated being but I've never seen any concrete evidence of this. <br><br>For instance, I often get extremely strong intuition of what is gonna happen in the next moment (ex: someone is gonna honk their horn, a dog is gonna bark, a small object held in someone's hand is suddenly gonna fall, etc) or have a very strong feeling of what someone is gonna say before they say it.<br><br>And I have this feeling for as long as I can remember, even as a small child.<br><br>What are your thoughts on this topic?<br><br>Do you ever get similar strange intuition?<br><br>Is this feeling the result of the "algorithms" that run our simulated world, perhaps?<br><br>Interesting thoughts anyone?
