I do believe that there's very little if any evidence for a simulated universe. The question is essentially, since we also have little evidence against a simulated universe, what's our prior for the idea?
I believe that even if this argument is fundamentally irresolvable on empirical grounds, that does not preclude an effective resolution on logical grounds. So I think that throwing up your hands and making it just an arbitrary matter of priors — if that was your intention — is premature.
Well, I have nothing more to say at the moment.
