To be more precise (I hope) - assuming that thoughts, experiences etc are a form of computation at some level, the output (or trace) of the UDA, which I seem to recall is designated UDA*, will eventually generate those thoughts, experiences etc. Though if run on a PC it would probably take a few googol years to do so (and require many hubble volumes of storage space too, I imagine). However, arithmetical realism assumes that the trace of the UDA already exists timelessly. > Similarly, all of the known laws of physics could fit on a couple sheets > of paper.
