After the death of the universe, over an infinite amount of time, all there will be left is dark energy. In this dark energy there will be quantum fluctuations that will cause objects to randomly occur (including your brain). Given an infinite amount of time, the probability that you are one of these Boltzmann Brains becomes 99.99999%. Furthermore, it is exponentially more likely for a smaller object to materialize than a large object. The probability of a planet or solar system materializing is exponentially less likely than a single human brain. It is exponentially more likely that only your brain exists versus anything around you existing, in fact, this probability is almost 100%.

In that case for everyone I perceive to be in my life there is at least one Boltzmann brain that materializes at some point in space and time such that they perceive me identically as in the case where we are both born as full people who lived at the same time and really interacted

eventually time will reverse and we'll do all this again backward
hope you're jacking on here and there to forgot yourself what jacking off felt like for the reverse go around

This is similar to what Mario believed before he killed himself.

I never quite understood this, so happy to be corrected, but surely the probability of our reality being the way we understand it, and for us to exist as the product of evolution, has a much higher probability than a brain to spontaneously assemble with all the perceptions we current observe?

The Boltzmann brain is a litmus test, not a real theory, popsci midwit. If your hypothesis fails the Boltzmann brain test then it needs to go back to the drawing board.

Like half of peoples *actual, literal* belief systems fail the boltzmann brain test.

And of the half that "pass", half of those are cultic and schizo theories that defeat themselves on logical grounds.

> infinite monkey theorem

The joke of the Bolzmann brain is to show why we are evolved beings and not a Bolzmann brain.
A solution is e.g. that something like a Bolzmann brain exists, but big bangs or the like arise spontaneously more often.

You don't know what that word means.
