We are going from bad to worse on this list, first measuring consciousness, then the soul, I dare not think what you guys will measure next in your reckless pursuit of science :)
But no, Matt's calculations are unlikely to be correct because it is unlikely the brain is a one trick pony. From that point of view Penrose is right looking for "more", while the actual theories are weak and I think he knows it too. Now, about any fallacies, I think the issues of computability etc are too subtle to be resolved conclusively anytime soon, but few people are as qualified as Penrose to address them. After all, I too know some things that are not ready for the public domain, eg that objects heavier than air cannot fly ;) AT ------------------------------------------- AGI Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/21088071-f452e424 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21088071&id_secret=21088071-58d57657 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
