Consciousness seems so elusive because it is not an ‘intended’ product of the connectome directly recognising sensory patterns, consciousness is an extra layer. The interacting synaptic networks produce harmonics because each is using a specific frequency to communicate with its logical/ connected neighbours. The harmonic/ interference patterns travel through the synaptic network just like normal internal/ sensory patterns… it’s an interference bi-product that piggy-backs/ influences the global thought pattern.
It’s similar to hypnotism or deep meditation…cortical regions learn the harmonics… our sub-conscious is just out of phase, or to be more precise, our consciousness is out of phase with the ‘logical’ intelligence of our connectome. Our consciousness is like… just the surface froth, reading between the lines, or the summation of interacting logical pattern recognition processes. Consciousness is just the sound of all the gears grinding… I need a better description lol. :) ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T9c94dabb0436859d-M4c430aca5b2983b2994fbea4 Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
