But, based on current human behavior, I would expect such simulations to focus on the great and famous, or on situations which represent fun game play.
My life does not qualify as any of those. So I heavily discount this possibility.
I would expect that more notable events would tend to get more sim time.
It might or might not be hard to sim one person without surrounding social context.
(Ie maybe humans interact in such completed ways that it’s easiest to just sim all 8 billion. )
But the main point is that you are still extremely special, compared to a random member of a 10^50 person galactic civilization.
You aren’t maximally special, but are still bloomin special.
You aren’t looking at just how tiny our current world is on the scale of a billion dyson spheres.
If we scale up the resource scales from here to K3 without changing the distribution of things people are interested in, then everything anyone has bothered to say or think ever would get (I think like at least 10 ) orders of magnitude more compute than needed to simulate our civilization up to this point.
Hypothetically this is possible.
