Yes. I think that as long as there is any chance of you being the simulated agent, then you need to one box. So you one box if Omega tells you ‘I simulated some agent’, and one box if Omega tells you ‘I simulated an agent that uses the same decision procedure as you’, but two box if Omega tells you ‘I simulated an agent that had a different copywrite comment in its source code to the comment in your source code’.
This is just a variant of the ‘detect if I’m in a simulation’ function that others mention. i.e. if Omega gives you access to that information in any way, you can two box. Of course, I’m a bit stuck on what Omega has told the simulation in that case. Has Omega done an infinite regress?
