I personally favour the Ruliad hypothesis, my intuition is that platonic structures can’t be separate and will interfere with each other leading to the ruliad.
Another Question:
Do you think literal infinite minds (i.e., minds with access to infinite processing power) exist? The optimistic scenario is there is some kind of Infinite Mafia (or Government) that tries to enforce some kind of law. Perhaps this only applies to beings that are provably “fair”—and humans do not satisfy the cut. I feel intuitively like there should be a variety of different infinite minds that exist and should be able to interfere with our universe (p-value around 20%).
Lately, I’ve started assigning higher probability to solipsism (around ~10%) and think perhaps I’m being simulated alone and this is some kind of PlayPlanet where other people are not real. (ex: not sure why the Holocaust is allowed if there are infinite minds that can interfere). Perhaps all humans are grown in their natural habitat like some kind of zoo.
In the ideal scenario, I think maybe they calculate the limit of what you will become if you could modify your brain (your CEV mind architecture if you will).
There are two aspects of interest from a CEV mind architecture:
Dust Theory vs Ruliad
I want to get feedback and comments on the following:
Dust Theory (by Greg Egan or alternatively the Mathematical Universe Hypothesis by Tegmark)
Ruliad (by Wolfram)

There are two aspects of interest from a CEV mind architecture:
what part of the idea space you choose to compress (see No Free Lunch Theorem)
how you want to modify the environment (the ruliad)
In Dust Theory, of course none of these questions matter much since no matter what you do, all realities with a mathematical description exist.
