Currently reading Philip K. Dick's "Exegisis," which are his letters and diary entries about his descent (ascent?) into something similar, before he died of a stroke. I'm reading it because after reading about other great minds chased down a similar theme where they seemed to discover something later in life and retreated from the world to explore it. I wanted to see what a set of reference points might look like. The end of this article references something called "wireheading," which seems to be a deeper explanation of why the article was written. https://qualiacomputing.com/2016/08/20/wireheading_done_right/ https://qualiacomputing.com/2016/08/20/wireheading_done_righ...
