There is always the option that humanity eradicates itself into oblivion before the technology for building a simulation has been developed.
Looking at how green/co2 certificates work, looking at politics and misinformation, looking at escalating wars out of stupidity, looking how many countries have been far-right-winged lately into Sharia law,...I think that's the far more likely option.
Humans are petty, humans are irrational, humans forget too quickly.
Always bet on humans acting like psychotic apes wanting more bananas even when their belly is so stuffed that it almost explodes.
Whether you want to admit that this is how the planet works or not doesn't matter. In the end, right wing populism always wins because they bet on stupidity and irrational beliefs, not on compromise and rationality.
