Hoffman begins with a valuable warning against naïve realism: perception is an evolved interface, not reality unfiltered. But he inflates that insight into a consciousness-first metaphysics his simulations cannot establish. Whatever reality ultimately rests upon, repeatable evidence still reveals a stable world that resists our guesses and corrects our mistakes.

What does the Idea of Ideas say about Hoffman’s evolutionary simulations?

When you lose your temper, act selfishly, or make a bad decision, sometimes you are wrestling with impulses shaped deep in our evolutionary past. Understand them, but do not surrender to them. Take control of your journey. Think well, choose with purpose, and make decisions that help you and others flourish.

You cannot control every situation or every order handed to you, but you still control your part in what happens next. Listen to authority and consider its guidance, but do not surrender your moral agency. Think through your intent, choose the best action you can, and take responsibility for your choice.
