No, I don’t. I think the argument for their existence is pretty weak at best, and if they exist and are common, so what? It’s the sort of hypothesis for which no possible evidence can be given for or against and no action can be taken in any event.
Even given the (in my opinion pretty unlikely) hypotheses of their existence and ubiquity, what’s the point of considering whether you’re one of them? Such “observers”, stretching the term to cover entities with essentially certain inability to form thoughts, lacking any sort of consistent memories, and hallucinating in their mean lifetime of less than a millisecond, can’t do anything about it anyway.
