It's a questions that has baffled humans long before The Matrix; do we exist and what if we are living in a simulation?

While we have yet to have a definitive answer, one expert has waded through this philosophical quagmire to explain arguments about whether we are just a brain in a vat.

Writing for the Converation, Laura D'Olimpio, Senior Lecturer in Philosophy, University of Notre Dame Australia, said we can at least be certain we exist.

Consider this: right now, you are not where you think you are.

In fact, you happen to be the subject of a science experiment being conducted by an evil genius.

Your brain has been expertly removed from your body and is being kept alive in a vat of nutrients that sits on a laboratory bench.

The nerve endings of your brain are connected to a supercomputer that feeds you all the sensations of everyday life.

This is why you think you're living a completely normal life.

Do you still exist? Are you still even 'you'? And is the world as you know it a figment of your imagination or an illusion constructed by this evil scientist?
