   Close your eyes and count to 10. [music] Do it clean. 1 2 3. All the way to 10. Now do it again, but this time hold your breath. Now do it again, but this time picture something embarrassing you did 5 years ago. Now do it again, but this time listen to a fast song and tap [music] your foot. Your 10 seconds just mutated. Your internal clock stretched, [music] shrank, tripped, rushed, dragged. And here's the point. Nothing flowed differently out there. The universe didn't change gears because you got anxious. The second didn't become shorter because you remembered your cringe moment. The only th…

   [Music] don talk to me about psychophysics because i mean this incorporates experimental psychology um evolutionary biology and so much within the field tell me about some of its limitations perhaps and maybe some of the assumption psychophysics makes that some of the work you've been doing or you prakash singh etc that might be changing the way we think about this field so psychophysics is typically thought of as a study of the relationship between a physical stimulus and a psychological or perceptual response to that stimulus and so you can think about for example the intensity of light in t…

   It is usually admitted that states of consciousness, sensations, feelings, passions, efforts, are capable of growth and diminution; we are even told that a sensation can be said to be twice, thrice, four times as intense as another sensation of the same kind. This latter thesis, which is maintained by psychophysicists, we shall examine later; but even the opponents of psychophysics do not see any harm in speaking of one sensation as being more intense than another, of one effort as being greater than another, and in thus setting up differences of quantity between purely internal states. Common…

   AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE] in terms of your writing, I-- it seems to be that there is both sides of the argument, both sides of it. But [INAUDIBLE] it seems [INAUDIBLE] in that-- I can well imagine is lack of representation. You have representation of self and representation of your mind. But then you say, there's no self or no consciousness. Why can't you think about consciousness as just a process that is reasoning about your own mind? MARVIN MINSKY: Well-- AUDIENCE: Is there a problem with that? I mean, I understand you don't want to talk about-- MARVIN MINSKY: No. AUDIENCE: --soul, 'cause that'…

Accordingly, Bore declared that I quote words like contemplation and valition or we can use more words. Words like contemplation, reflection, thinking and valition, instincts, spontaneity feelings.

   I love that chapter you dedicated a whole chapter to feelings and I'd love to cover that in depth in part two of this episode of this of this series, Mark, as well. I absolutely I was telling you before we came on air, so many aha moments. That's why why fears often happen before we're you know, in our childhood states and they're so hard to remove because it's before the brain is fully formed. All that all that kind of stuff. So many great moments. Play, for example, why do children why do play always finish in tears for children? All those kind of things were were magnificent to read about. …

   What is more, we apprehend it in accordance with its dual nature insofar as it has the sound as content within it, and insofar as it has itself as content at the same time.” ( PES , 98) [“ Die Vorstellung des Tones und die Vorstellung von der Vorstellung des Tones bilden nicht mehr als ein einziges psychisches Phänomen, das wir nur, indem wir es in seiner Beziehung auf zwei verschiedene Objekte, deren eines ein physisches, und deren anderes ein psychisches Phänomen ist, betrachten, begrifflich in zwei Vorstellungen zergliederten. In demselben psychischen Phänomen, in welchem der Ton vorgestell…

   For me, it would seem a a great error to to quickly assume one is in real conversation with an LLM. Now, in some sense, quite obviously, but in another sense, it seems to me that we are already and I can imagine our capacity to notice that decrease that we can find ourselves in cultivating in quotation marks relationship with that which doesn't care fundamentally isn't of that which cares. Now that is a that is a wild phenomenon just to point to but I'm wanting to locate I'm wanting to to presence it in the context of how it is that being comes to is it dissociate shy away from what you know s…

   If I see a blue entity that creates a certain impression on me and somebody else looks at the blue thing and does that person have anything that you could say is the same as my experience? I would just say, we don’t know. It could well be that there is something indeed to tell, which isn’t to say. We certainly don't know enough about that. I find very curious things like synesthesia, where you have parts of the brain, if they get mixed up, then one sensation gets sort of confused with another sensation. It does seem to be there was something different between one kind of sensation and another …

    I'm not denying what appears to perception and measurement as matter as atoms. These things are empirically verified. We can measure this stuff. There is something out there that goes by the name of atom and metal and aluminium and so forth. None of that is denied. I'm not denying that there is an external world beyond my mind. What I'm saying is that these external world beyond my mind just like my mind is also made of mental states. And just as my mental states appear to you as matter, my brain, the atoms of my body, you know, the very measurable, very physical stuff. So the mental states th…
