I rarely get the chance to listen to talks (online or anywhere else) - I don't suppose
there's a paper or something giving same ideas?

An excellent talk by Sean Carroll explicating where the gaps are in
Everett's MWI as
applied to cosmology and providing a solution to the Boltzmann brain
problem:

Note that toward the end he seems to require a conscious observer to bottom
out the
epistemology, i.e. to have a measurement actually made. Be sure to listen
to the
Q&A too.
Coincidentally, I came across Lubos Motul's discussion of MWI in which he
has an
extended argument with Ron Maimon. I don't like Lubos's politics or his
style or
argument which is arrogant and bombastic. In this case he is being very
critical of
Sean Carroll whom is a very nice guy and I do like - but I think Lubos
makes some
fair points.
