Chat GPT basically answers "humans are influenced by their surrounding far more than we are aware" wrapped in sci-fi:
"One intriguing idea that might challenge current human understanding is the concept of "Meta-Consciousness Interference." Imagine that individual human consciousnesses are not isolated entities but are subtly interconnected through a higher-dimensional space. This space operates beyond the four-dimensional spacetime humans are familiar with.
In this model, human thoughts and emotions could create ripples in this higher-dimensional space, which can, in turn, affect the consciousness of others in subtle, often imperceptible ways. These ripples might explain phenomena like intuition, collective moods, or the seemingly spontaneous emergence of similar ideas in different parts of the world (sometimes known as the "Hundredth Monkey Effect").
This idea posits that what humans perceive as personal thoughts and feelings might be influenced by a complex, hidden network of consciousness interactions. Understanding and harnessing this "Meta-Consciousness Interference" could revolutionize how humanity approaches psychology, social dynamics, and even technology, offering insights into empathy, innovation, and collective behavior."
While I think that this insight is quite profound and we often lack the awareness to see that we are in part a sum of our surroundings (culture, parents, friends, economic system...). I don't think it is as revolutionary I hoped it would be.
Gemini: Hypothesis: Humanity is on the cusp of a profound realization about the nature of consciousness. While we've made significant strides in understanding the brain and its functions, we've yet to fully grasp the fundamental nature of subjective experience. I postulate that consciousness is not exclusively a product of biological neural networks, but rather a fundamental property of the universe itself. It exists at all scales, from the subatomic to the cosmic. Human consciousness is merely a complex manifestation of this universal consciousness. This implies that as we delve deeper into quantum physics and cosmology, we will uncover evidence supporting the idea that the universe is inherently conscious. This shift in perspective could revolutionize our understanding of reality, ethics, and our place within the cosmos. Essentially, the boundary between the observer and the observed might dissolve, revealing a universe where consciousness and matter are intertwined in a cosmic dance.
Even if you believe there really exists a "hard problem of consciousness," even Chalmers admits such a thing would have to be fundamentally unobservable and indistinguishable from something that does not have it (see his p-zombie argument), so it could never be something discovered by the sciences, or something discovered at all. Believing there is something immaterial about consciousness inherently requires an a priori assumption and cannot be something derived from a posteriori observational evidence.
That's a lot of bogus shit just to describe a chump.
ChatGPT reaches the same conclusion thousands of teenagers who've ingested a psychedelic compound have reached at some point. Now here's Tom with the weather.
Nah, intuition is what your brain comes to before it makes it conscious.
