Ep. 14: Worship Lord Zero COVID, 4th Booster, Dumb Policies

Can AI open new portals into consciousness and create new awarenesses? Why does the universe seem to have limited resources? What happens when we die? ARE WE LIVING IN THE MATRIX?

We have no clue how consciousness emerges from 3 pounds of wet goo. Cognitive scientist Don Hoffman takes us deep into his research suggesting we're attacking the problem backwards. The implications of his theories just may change everything you think you know about reality and our place in it. Take the Red Pill and see how deep the rabbit hole goes...

In this extended interview we dive into the Interface Theory of Perception (how evolution hides the truth about reality in favor of a dumbed down user interface that only shows us "fitness" payoffs that help us survive), the "Hard Problem of Consciousness" and how we simply have no idea how consciousness could emerge from physical matter, the theory of Conscious Realism (how reality is really a social network of conscious "agents" and our perceptions are simply the interface by which we exchange experience with other agents), the math behind conscious agent theory, implications  for artificial intelligence (AI), psychedelics, spirituality, and much much more.
