Two things: 1) I didn't necessarily mean exactly Solomonoff induction, as what I was describing would be for finding a single good description, rather than making good predictions using a weighted combinations of many descriptions. 2)Well, whether they would have experiences is a topic which is of some debate I think. They would behave as if they did, but, would they? If the simulation is run twice concurrently, are the experiences had twice as much? There are all sorts of potential complications with things like computation with secret sharing schemes, and so I don't think the question is really settled. ____ My point was that even if something describes what occurs, what particles end up in what configurations, that doesn't seem to be a description of what is experienced, even if it predicts how people will self report their experiences, and give causal explanations for their self reporting of their internal experience.
