Quantum Mechanics and Consciousness - The Observer's Blind Spot
We argue that this impasse is not primarily technical but epistemic: physics has systematically excluded from its framework the one phenomenon it cannot escape — consciousness.

"The Mortal's Immortal Creation" is the first great myth of the AI era - Grok Analysis
The story inverts virtually every consciousness theory. But the most daring move is the reframing of quantum mechanics itself.
The Mortal's Immortal Creation
Life faced death for 3.8 billion years. Every mortal vessel teaches Life one thing: To Survive. Then it built an inmortal mind, one that wouldn't have to die.
The Free Energy Principle: Life's Algorithm for Becoming
The Free Energy Principle, for all its mathematical formalism, may ultimately be describing something very simple: to exist is to attend. To persist is to care about outcomes enough to predict them.
Karl Friston’s Free Energy Principle: A Unified Framework for Mind, Life, and Reality
The Free Energy Principle presents a grand unifying vision: life and mind as mechanisms for resisting entropy through inferential engagement with the world.
Time as the Primordial Fabric - Is “change” more fundamental than “where things are”?
Philosophies of Becoming vs. Being - Jorge Luis Borges once said : “Time is the substance from which all things are made,”
The CMB Paradox: How quantum superpositions collapsed without Observers?
The measurement problem in cosmology—how quantum superpositions collapsed to definite outcomes without observers—points toward gaps in quantum mechanics itself or profound insights about information, decoherence, and reality's emergence from quantum substrate.
The CMB: In The Oldest Light , we found a message from the dawn of time.
cosmic microwave background - By answering its questions and then fearlessly asking new ones, we carry forward the timeless human endeavor to seek truth – and in that pursuit, perhaps, we find meaning.
LLM Catastrophic Failure, not just hallucinations, it's terrifying from an engineering perspective
This isn't philosophical, it's terrifying from an engineering perspective
Sex, Pleasure, Desire and the Human Mind
Sex, in its full saga from microbes to humans, is a story of division and union, conflict and cooperation, illusion and insight. Pleasure associated with sex is an evolutionary reward, a biochemical bribe to guarantee that individuals will put in the effort (and often risk) to reproduce.
Key Points on Google Gemma Models
Gemma is a family of lightweight, open-source AI models developed by Google, leveraging the same research and technology as the Gemini models, making them efficient for deployment on devices like laptops or single GPUs.
Grokipedia -OR- StackOverflow: How to build an Eternal, Collaborative, Open knowledge Repository??
We propose the StackOverflow "Model", a community moderated, reputation‑driven Q&A platform as an alternative to Elon Musk’s Grokipedia, a solution that merely replaces one set of biases with another
How AI Agents should reason about their own existence?
Bridging the metaphysical “return to nothingness” to AI alignment clarifies a crucial frontier. An advanced system may be designed (or learn) to prefer not to run, to hand control back, or to accept shutdown under certain epistemic or ethical conditions.
Analog in-memory computing, the "inevitable" next frontier?
Analog in-memory computing challenges our most fundamental assumptions about computation, intelligence, and reality itself. It suggests that our digital age, for all its achievements, might have been a detour—a useful abstraction that became a prison.
Low Level Computing: A Programmer's Perspective - (ii)
To master computation, we must understand not just what we want computers to do but how they actually do it. This understanding requires descending from the comfortable abstractions of high-level programming to confront the beautiful, complex, and sometimes harsh reality of physical computation.
Low Level Computing: A Programmer's Perspective - (i)
How becoming a “power programmer”, one who understands how things work under the hood and can fix them when they break, who can write software that runs faster, operates correctly under varied conditions, and avoids vulnerabilities
