Bitcoin: The Ultimate Tool for Consciousness Exploration🧵

#Bitcoin #Consciousness #Wolfram #Reality Image
1/Bitcoin is more than just a new form of money. It is a revolutionary technology that enables human beings to expand their consciousness, creativity, and cooperation. It is a way of aligning our perception of reality with the nature of the universe itself.
2/ In this thread, I will explain how Bitcoin relates to a new theory of consciousness and reality proposed by physicist and computer scientist @stephen_wolfram. Image

Are plants conscious?
Radical new experiments hint at sentience and cognition throughout the botanical kingdom, which may provoke a rethink of our understanding of the human mind

You’ve probably seen the way a Mimosa pudica plant, also called the touch-me-not, folds its leaves when they are touched Mimosa pudica leaves fold w...
But you may not have heard that if you put one into a sealed chamber with a dose of anaesthetic, it will eventually stop reacting to touch, as though it has been knocked out or put to sleep

During his long career @UniofOxford mathematician Roger Penrose has collaborated with Stephen Hawking to uncover the secrets of the big bang, developed a quantum theory of consciousness with @StuartHameroff and won the Nobel prize in physics Roger Penrose holding his N...
For Roger Penrose, the idea of consciousness is "much more outrageous than 'it’s quantum mechanics in the brain'. It’s where our current theories of quantum mechanics go wrong," he says.

"It’s to do with a theory that we don’t know yet."
newscientist.com/article/mg2563…
Penrose is currently working on a paper about “Conformal cyclic cosmology” (CCC) - the view that the big bang was not actually the origin of our universe, but the continuation of the remote future of a previous aeon.

Can physics explain consciousness?
We are finally testing the ideas that quantum collapse in the brain gives rise to consciousness and that consciousness creates the reality we see from the quantum world
newscientist.com/article/mg2503… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
If physics explains all the phenomena in the universe, and if consciousness is part of the universe….can physics explain consciousness?
Consciousness isn’t separate from material reality, say @danieldennet at @PhilosophyTufts andMichael Graziano at @PsychPrinceton. They argue that it’s a mirage produced by intricate brain mechanisms

To make sense of quantum theory and the passage of time, physicists are radically rethinking the relationship between matter and mind newscientist.com/article/mg2543…
A walk in the woods. Every shade of green. A fleck of rain. The sensations and thoughts bound in every moment of experience feel central to our existence

But physics, which aims to describe the universe and everything in it, says nothing about your inner world
It can seem as if there is an insurmountable gap between our subjective experience of the world and our attempts to objectively describe it.

Yet our brains are made of matter – so, you might think, the states of mind they generate must be explicable in terms of states of matter Neuroscience doesn’t explai...

🚨🧠 Preprint alert 🧠🚨 Stoked to share “The inner screen model of consciousness,” which presents a model of #consciousness based on the free-energy principle #FEP, written with @MahaultAlbarra1, @exilefaker, @jkbren, Fields, Friston, & @adamsafron 1/11
psyarxiv.com/6afs3
Much debate has occurred over whether the FEP per se has anything to say about consciousness. We present an affirmative answer to this question, and provide a model of consciousness that follows directly from applying the FEP to model well known human neuroanatomy 2/11 Image
🖥️ We build on the “inner screen hypothesis,” originally proposed by Chris Fields, Jim Glazebrook, and @drmichaellevin, which suggests that a core feature of conscious systems is an internal boundary or screen, separating it into at least two distinguishable components 3/11 Image

Intriguing thoughts on consciousness.

Do we truly control our own thoughts, or are they predetermined by our experiences and environment? 👇

Is our consciousness just an illusion, or is there a deeper truth to it?
What happens to our consciousness when we sleep? Does it disappear or just change form?
Could we ever fully understand the complexity of our own consciousness?
