This paper argues that at least one of the following propositions is
true: (1) the human species is very likely to go extinct before
reaching a "posthuman" stage; (2) any posthuman civilization is
extremely unlikely to run a significant number of simulations of
their
evolutionary history (or variations thereof); (3) we are almost
certainly living in a computer simulation. It follows that the belief
that there is a significant chance that we will one day become
posthumans who run ancestor-simulations is false, unless we are
currently living in a simulation. A number of other consequences of
this result are also discussed.
