Re: Any human who has played a bit of Arimaa can beat a computer hands down.

If you see the image in the mirror and interact with it, then there has to be something conscious somewhere. Just like a human controlling a remote control car. The consciousness might exist somewhere else, but the car can behave as intelligently as a human. Jason On Fri, Apr 5, 2013 at 10:55

The Platonic basis of Relativity, quantum entanglement, and superluminal communication

The Platonic basis of Relativity, quantum entanglement, and superluminal communication The relativity of spacetime and the evidence of quantum nonlocality are aberrations fom classical physics, which is based on Newtonian physics, where space and time are absolute quantities. But these

Re: The world is in the brain

I like that diagram, and I think its a step in the right direction... but... it does not explain why phenomenal consciousness should be considered to resemble space-time. It really doesn't. To the contrary, spatiotemporal memories merge seamlessly with imaginary places and times, or non-places
