Because you identify a world with something generated by a program, like
Schmidhuber. But as I try to explain I suppose only that minds are
generated
by programs. Worlds does not "really" exist, they will emerge from a
measure
on all comp histories and a priori this can not be generated by a
program.
Remember (or read my SANE paper) that your first person pov are
dispersed
in the complete deployment of the universal devetailer.
