This school equates simulation with being, so that if consciousness is simulate-able then it exists as consciousness. The interpretation of simulations is as far as we can tell in the mind of a beholder, but simulation hypothesis has come to accept that anything which can compute, can create realities on equal footing with the common reality which our consciousness seems to help connect us to. On one hand it is a wonderful outlook where computation and imagination creates universes as real as our universe feels to us (or rather as real as each creatures individually experienced universe seems to them). On the other hand, it does concern me that our own and fellow creatures experiences are perceived by this school as formally attributable to controllable processes, distinguished in "reality" only by beholders individuated interpretations, be they someone, a convincing replication of someone, or anything really which any individual decides to treat as conscious or not.
