Because of the current hyperbole about Artificial Intelligence, an extract from the yet unpublished chapter of the book, The Entanglement of Being, has been brought forward, as an extract.
The advances in AI are spectacular but I am convinced that the human consciousness, though painfully slow in
Computation, mimicking Language and many other rational tasks is intimate with and integral to a substrate of the existence that we (so far) recognize as a generative consciousness .
Me too. Ha.
Heavy stuff.. perhaps the quote from Albert Einstein does sum it up well:
“I didn’t arrive at my understanding of the fundamental laws of the universe through my rational mind.”

Thanks. I will have to think about what exactly you mean.
