From what I understood, it doesn't require 100% determinism OR a perfect simulation for the thought experiment to hold.
It just needs enough to sort most of the humans into "will help basilisk come into existence" and "won't help basilisk". It probably doesn't even need to be 100% accurate at that.
I don't think being able to imperfectly simulate thoughts requires Godlike ability, either. I could see it happening in my life time.
Assuming I'm not being simulated right now, that is :/
