What is this world? What does it consist of? What is doing the

Whatever it is, Bruno's UD will eventually do it.
THe UD will emulate all mind states. This we can say (assuming comp).
But he will never emulate the physical reality/world, a priori, unless
the physical world is little, finite, essentially material or
substantial, constitutes my only brain, ... which prevents me from

I don't know what is a world, to be honest.
