Acausal trade confuses me. Is the following right?
Humanity should simulate other agents who (a) would value being simulated and (b) would simulate us
Because it isn’t clear to me that humanity is the type of agent that would value unconnected copies being simulated. (this is distinct but dependent on the assertion that simulated humans are entitled to moral consideration regardless of whether actual humans are sufficiently causally connected to the simulated humans).
