My reply to him:
Great post, though I’m still digesting it. Agree that the lack of “chinks” seems to suggest things are as they appear (ie we are an evolutionarily designed animal made from mechanistically defined matter and energy.)
However I don’t agree *at all* that a simulation would require such an extravagant computing device. Dreams are often indistinguishable from reality and only require 3 pounds of largely repetitive neocortical columns combined with a ton of interconnections of various strengths.
