From skimming through the actual paper, it seems that quantum gravity is a theory of physics, more general than general relativity, where spacetime itself is something that’s generated by a formal system of a formal language, a finite or small infinite set of axioms (fundamental physical laws) and rules for the creation of algorithms. What’s seemingly proved in the paper is that there are theorems in this system which cannot be proven, because they are too complex. But theorems in this sense mean states of spacetime or energy or whatever, meaning that ultra-complex states cannot be modelled with this model. And allegedly these kinds of ultra-complex states occur in high-energy situations.
I’m not saying it’s gospel but the article isn’t as absurd as it first seems. Still I doubt this actually proves us not living in asimulation.
