Space Of Possible Minds Quotes

“The hierarchical structure of conscious systems, I maintain, is a collection of subjects not an amalgamation of objects. In the space of possible minds, entangled minds far separated as actors in a virtual space-time have no true spatio-temporal separation in the computational realm which, just like our world, exhibits non-locality, discontinuity and quantum network non-linearity. The coming Technological Singularity could unravel one of the deepest mysteries of fractal hyperreality: consciousness alternating from pluralities to singularities and from singularities back to pluralities.”

“Biological minds reveal to us just a snippet in the space of possible minds. Building on the tenets of biocentrism, the Cybernetic Theory of Mind goes further and includes all other possible conscious observers such as artificially intelligent self-aware entities... the extended theory could be dubbed as ‘Noocentrism.”
