So not an ongoing computation performed by the universe,

What does that mean?

Actually I think I got confused, it isn't Max T who suggested that, but didn't someone like John Conway suggest the universe could be something like a game of life?

It is many people. It is called digital physics, and it is a priori incompatible with both comp, and QM.



as suggested by, say, Max Tegmark?

Can you give a reference? Thanks,

Well for Max T it would be the mathematical universe hypothesis paper but I imagine you know of that.

Yes. Actually, I told Tegmark (notably on this list), that the mathematical universe hypothesis is too much fuzzy, and that comp provides, thanks to Church thesis a precise mathematicalist thesis (indeed arithmeticalist), which makes possible to explain the emergence of consciousness and matter from the difference between the povs, inheritated from incompleteness and its intensional (modal) nuances. It seems to take this in consideration, except for the key FPI.
