Do you believe the human brain has magic components?
If not, why do you believe AI cannot one day replicate what the human brain does?
Or do you mean that you think this is a long way off, or not achievable with current hardware and algorithms?
- jplr8922 6y agoWhat do you mean by ''magic components''? One of the core point of EGB is that human consciousness has a property of spotting ''unintended symbolic patterns'' created by an underlying system (ex: a piece of music written by Bach). EGB also touch the point that consciousness might itself be one of these pattern, overlying the mechanical biological machine which is the brain. '' the brain == consciousness '' is a risky statement, since consciousness also appears to act as an an intermediary between the ''outside'' reality and the brain (ex: placebo effect, being scared during a nightmare, being stressed after a nightmare, etc). Does the brain has magic components and can AI replicate it? If you write a pseudo-code program which replicates consciousness, will a brain appear? Programing languages are languages. Can languages replicate reality? I do not think so, and there is no ''magic'' in my opinion.
