Summary

Professor of Cognitive Sciences at the University of California Donald Hoffman does a lot of thinking about the nature of reality - and he says our current scientific understanding of that fundamental question is all wrong. In his latest essay on the subject, entitled: 'Consciousness and its Spacetime headset' Hoffman writes: "The probability is zero that what I see resembles anything in objective reality, whatever that reality might be” So, what might that reality be?

Who created this avatar world you're talking about?

0:38.5

The way I'm trying to approach this mathematically is to have a mathematical notion of consciousness,

which can vary in its size to infinity, and a logic on the space of all Markov chains

that allows me to say, we can all be projections. Interesting, what traces is the technical term, traces of this higher
