There is no experimental evidence , just an interesting idea .

> Whether the universe is indeed a computational construct remains an open question, but the entropic nature of gravity provides compelling evidence that information is a fundamental component of physical reality and data com- pression drives physical processes in the universe.

Using the second law of squirrel dynamics and the mass–energy–squirrel equivalence principle, we show that gravitational attraction manifests as a requirement to reduce the squirrel entropy of matter objects in space
