By that same token, you could identify any poorly-understood corner of human perception to be evidence of simulation. Moon landing? Simulated. Quantum mechanics? Not natural, entirely simulated. My dog disappearing every week to pester my gereiatric neighbor for Beggin' Strips? He's actually being cached in a localized foveal dimension that ceases to exist when I look away from him.

Causality is convoluted and complex, the urge to ignore it has always overcome the less-curious individuals that are predisposed to hysteria and listlessness. Citing LLMs as the latest reason why we're simulated is not going to precipitate some scientific revolution in the understanding of reality. The underlying mechanics of text synthesis are easy to learn, they just don't want to learn it.
