[Bruce] Not really comparable. The probability of what ball you get is
distinct from the fact that the ball exists. MWI is not a theory about
what you will see. Any theory about that is necessarily a single world
theory since you only see one ball. MWI is a theory about what exists,
and its claim is that many worlds all exist with probability one.
Principle of least information? Omniverse -> Multiverse -> Universe?
"/Jaynes' followers propose a profound connection between action and
information, such that the principle of least action and the laws of
thermodynamics both derive from basic symmetries of logic itself. /
I'd like to see that derivation.
/We need only accept that all conceivable universes are equally likely, /
That figures; they are zero likely.
/a principle of least information. Under this assumption, we can
imagine a smooth spectrum from metaphysics to physics, from the
omniverse to the multiverse to the universe, where the fundamental
axis is information, and the only fundamental law is that you can
never assume more than you know./" -- David Dalrymple
Just scienecy speak.
