Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

I feel like for qualia to exist, it must be processed.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

I will even grant that the processing is simply the Markovian dynamics of moving from one thing to another, the switching of states, fine.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

But it is moving from one state to another, which I will call that processing.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

Yeah, I try not to kill the audience with the things I just can't remember.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

Do you have an example of something that's non-computational?

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

I think you gave one earlier, but I forget.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

Yeah, that's right.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

By its nature.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

In fact, probably most.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

So the question is- So when you say non-computational, you mean something that ends up in that loop?

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

So the halting problem is- And most things are like that.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

There's no Turing machine that will know which one is going to halt?

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

When somebody says it's Turing complete, does it mean that it halts appropriately or is that something else entirely?

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

That's something else entirely.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

Got it.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

Okay, that's crazy.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

Persistence.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

So this is, I think, a key part of my thesis, which is persistence is the hard problem for AI right now.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory
Is Reality Real? - New Science On How The Universe & Consciousness Aren't Real | Donald Hoffman PT 2 (Fan Fav)

And when I look at the thing that holds AI back from being something that people can implement into their workflows today, it's because it can give you really amazing stuff, but it cannot give you really amazing stuff over and over from different angles and different setups.

Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

People are working on it and
