The creator of the universe most likely cannot do/experience things we can easily.
Any sufficiently advanced intelligent being in our universe or another, may be unlikely to waste vast amounts of time and/or money creating (something like our universe) if there were no rational reason behind such creation. For example, for us humans, which so far appears to be the only highly-intelligent species, we typically build things that address problems we cannot solve on our own, or cannot solve with efficiency. A good example of this type of problem solving is AI. We built AI to take over all sorts of intelligent activities that would require either an ungodly amount of human effort/time or require a level of speed/efficiency that is impossible for humans to achieve. On the other hand, there will always be numerous things that humans can accomplish that are not yet possible using AI technology.
If you apply the same logic as above, then presumably, whatever created this universe (e.g. god, a simulator, etc.) created beings that can accomplish/experience something the creator either cannot experience/do firsthand or cannot experience/do without creating something like a universe. That does not necessarily imply that the creator is inherently less powerful. Rather, it is possible that certain types of experiences/emergent behaviors can only occur as a result of independent entities rather than internal imagination by the creator, and they can most likely experience/do things we cannot do.
If simulation theory is accurate, then possibly we are "guard-railed" by the rules of the simulation. Through science and technology, we've been able to identify many of these. Maybe how things work are not limitations, but merely how the mechanics of whatever systems we find ourselves within function, made in such a way that the rules are hard to be broken. But we are able to slowly understand and break/get-past the rules using science and technology, and that could be an example of something they might be learning from us. Not sure how/when they would be learning from us though.
As this began as a shower-thought, it was removed from /r/showerthought and I was recommended to post here instead.
So, I'm curious to know what you think/know. Also, what do you think our creator might not be able to do/experience, that we can do/experience? Or do you think they can do/experience everything we can do/experience and more?
Tl/DR : We usually create advanced systems for a reason. Maybe our creator made conscious beings because we provide experiences or emergent behavior they couldn't get otherwise.
