Matt Shumer's Astra agent built its own simulation inside his simulation

HyperWrite founder Matt Shumer shared a playful experiment: he dropped a sim computer into the simulation his Astra agents live in, and one agent sat down and built a simulation of its own — with agents living inside it. "Simulations all the way down." Onlookers joked that simulation theory might be real. A viral-worthy AI demo moment.
