has anyone ever proposed a version of the anthropic principle

to the effect that not only must the universe allow for intelligent
observers, specifically us, but that the universe must allow for
intelligent observers to be able to recreate or emulate their existence?
Maybe a stronger version would be to recreate or emulate infinitely. I
am aware of the final AP, which suggests life, or information
processing, will exist forever. However, thats not quite as strong or
final as what I'm suggesting.
