Intelligent life can only appear in Universes, whose physical laws support sufficient complexity to make evolution of intelligent beings possible. Even inside those Universes, intelligent life does not appear randomly, but in parts with realized complexity, e.g. around stars in our Universe. As a consequence, the observational point of an intelligent observer cannot be assumed to be random and one must correct for this selection effect. In this paper we calculate how direct measurements of the Hubble parameter are affected when subject to the condition that they are observed from a Milky Way-like galaxy.
