Yes, the way we do physics assumes QM and statistical effects are due to the rules of QM. But in a more general multiverse setting
Why should we consider such a thing.
where we consider different laws of physics or different initial conditions, the notion of single universes with well defined laws becomes ambiguous.
Does it? How can there be multiples if there are not singles?
Let's assume that consciousness is in general generated by algorithms which can be implemented in many different universes with different laws as well as in different locations within the same universe where the local environments are similar but not exactly the same. Then the algorithm plus its local environment
Algorithm + environment sounds like a category error. Brent
evolves in each universe according to the laws that apply in each universe. But because the conscious agent cannot locate itself in one or the other universe, one can now also consider time evolutions involving random jumps from one to the other universes. And so the whole notion of fixed universes with well defined laws breaks down.
