understanding the human brain
understanding the human brain.
The human brain is a very nice example of interdependance.
Everything that our brain percieves is based on everything else
it percieves.
Whatever our brain knows depends on everything else our brain
knows. You cant tell red from green unless you know them both.
BUt if you know only green, then you dont know green. Coz u
cannot identify red, so it will all be green to u, and all look
same, means nothing is really making sense. So you cant even
percieve green unless you are aware of the perception of red.
Hence
Whatever our brain knows depends on everything else it knows.
The problem here is that it makes the brain very self
sufficient. Since the brain relates everything to what it already knows, there is no absolute data in the brain. all the data in the brain is relative. So it can possibly be elevated to any altitude wihtout any change in functionality.
Maybe it might result in changed perceptions (enlightened people) or it might not cause any noticable change.
One thing is quite clear, after certain experiences in life, we think about things in the past and see them in new light. The incidents are a part of the past, they havent changed. We have thought about those incidents but never seen them in the way we see them now. The new experiences in life has given us an edge which throws new light on the same old experiences and now we are seeing it in an entirely different light. Hence, we can safely conclude that whatever we remembered about our experiences in life werent stored at an absolute level. Based on our state of mind, we are able to see them through different points of view.
THis is what gives human minds the extremely superb edge over an AI. We can summarize so well. We can percieve so well. And best of all, we can translate our knowledge to accomodate new insights.
WOW.
thats all i can muster.
Maybe AI is branching forward in this direction. But like the so many other things i want to research and verify, i dont have the time right now to google it.
So the human mind doesnt store anything absolute. Then why is modern science trying to find out the absolute quantity from which everything else is derived. Is ‘c’ really a constant. Maybe its not.
Its said that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. Neither mass, nor impulse, nor any information.
But what about precognition. That does exist. That information gets through BEFORE the incident happens. Negative velocity.
I think faster than the speed of light. Maybe different roles apply to thoughts.
