In many many years technology advances to a point where we can run “ancestor simulations”. These are computer programs that mimic Earth and populate it with artificial minds. They are detailed enough for the minds to be conscious and have experiences like ours. Eventually these simulations can be run on any desktop pc and so there are billions of them all over the world.
Thus, if we do invent this technology, the balance of probability suggests we are living in a simulation.

No, it is not going to happen. Technology is good but nothing on this earth can ever take away our minds. We have a higher power and that is why we have a conscious.
