 So if you go to a bookstore and ask, where are your books on consciousness? They'll show you the shelf and it's like shelf after shelf after shelf and books still being published on that subject You now say, well, where are your books on gravity? Well, it's like three books on one side of one shelf so Evidence that we don't understand something yet is that people keep publishing books saying that we understand When you understand something the book gets written and then you move on to other topics and you're done So we have Newton gravity and Einstein gravity get that in three or four books There's no no one is still trying to explain it Okay, explain it as a mystery to be explained They might explain it because maybe this other method wasn't as successful as you have some new educational Twist that you would put on it, but then it's it's an educational exercise not someone putting their next idea out as an explanation for it, so And by the way, this would be true for almost anything just look around If active researchers are still publishing it, it means we know least about it So That tells me if we don't fully understand consciousness Yet there are people who fear AI becoming conscious I don't see one falling from the other We're afraid it's gonna become this thing. We don't fully understand yet because we're afraid of that Yeah, but like I said, we don't we don't understand our own it In a way to think that just simply having a faster computer is gonna make an id in the computer so But we'll see I remain fearless of AI I said bring it on bring it on bring it on Hey, everyone.
