It's actually not that complicated

How do the impossible geometry DMT shapes come into play in the big picture of reducing suffering at scale? I know they're implicated. It's a long story. I'd need five hours to get to the bottom of it. But they matter. That much I can tell you.

Consciousness is a biophysics problem, not a computational one.

As an undergraduate, I switched tracks from Physics to Buddhist Studies precisely because Buddhist epistemology has a precise and fine-grained vocabulary for discussing "observables" (meya, jñeya, viṣaya, artha, etc.), "observer" (grāhakākāra, svābhāsa, etc.), and so on.

Well, is the "observable" the thing the observer measures, or not?

The appropriate credence for illusionism about consciousness is 0. If you notice that it’s like anything at all to be you, then you know that consciousness is not an illusion; case closed.

I think @davidchalmers42 has a higher credence in illusionism since then, as have I, mainly due to conversations with @keithfrankish . Still very confidence it's false though!

Agree with Luke (former grad student at Harvard) - This feeds the most damaging anti-science narratives.

Vector potentials (spin 1) yield a force that repels like charges and attracts unlike charges; so not what Newton had in mind Technically that can be changed by switching the sign of the kinetic term, but then the Hamiltonian is unbounded from below (no ground state)
