It seems the implication is that there is a difference between abstractions and objective reality. But you are not in bad company. Max Tegmark, a physicist at MIT, believes that the fundamental substrate is math, which is just another way of saying that reality is made of mind.
- simonh 6y agoI think that’s getting the cart and the horse back to front. If the fundamental substrate is math then to me that means reality is made of information. I believe mind is a particular form of process on information, but that doesn’t mean all processes on information are minds. This IMHO is the fundamental error at the heart of panpsychism.
