> "consciousness is quantum!"
Amused by this particular choice as an example of ["fuzzily emotional pseudoscience"], given Roger Penrose (Hawking's peer in Nobel-winning black hole astrophysics) wrote a book -- The Emperor's New Mind -- detailing his theory of how consciousness relates to quantum mechanics. Wondering if you had that book in mind, w/ your comment a critique thereof.
- whatshisface 7y agoI'm not sure about the names involved but "quantum consciousness" is not a very good theory or really a theory even.
- joycian 7y agoThe theory makes little sense, see also Max Tegmark article on it.
