Is it surprising? It seems likely you could build a complete working model of the universe with no provision for consciousness at all. As far as modern science goes, it's an intractable problem
- squigz 6mo agoIt doesn't seem likely to me that in, just a couple hundred years, humans have developed such a thorough understand of every natural process as all that.
- GoblinSlayer 6mo agoYou can do it with no provision for molecules too.
- ryeights 6mo agoThat wouldn’t be complete though. I mean that an outside observer could view a simulation of the universe by your model, down to the subatomic particle level, and find no differences with the real world. There is no measurable “consciousness field” as far as we know, so how can our science even begin to approach the topic?
- GoblinSlayer 6mo agoWhat do you mean by "wouldn’t be complete"? If no differences with the real world are found, then the model is complete.
