When you hear a person play violin in a subway-analog. When you hear a violin played over your cell phone while on hold—digital. Biological neural systems allow for an infinite level of tuning due to their analog nature. ANNs have a limit defined by their processors.

Weird stuff happens at the quantum level. When photons are entangled space and distance have no effect on the communication. It happens everywhere and anywhere simultaneously. If you mess with one photon you can tell with the other. We will be able to encrypt and verified and decrypt all with 100% guaranteed non refutability and tamperproof.

I’m really interested in AI in part because I think we need an “other” to help see the world in ways our biology can allow for. The unfortunate thing is, however, that these systems are created by us and modeled upon us so it may be that they are incapable of escaping the same “prison” we are in.

The other person I’ve been hearing about is Robert Hoffman. Dude is seriously interesting in that his studies are showing that humans (and all animals) evolved not to see reality as it is, but in a manner that helps them to survive. He likens out “perception” to a user interface on reality. It isn’t reality or objective, it is just useful.

Time seen as passing from past to future and with a line of causality may just be an evolutionary trick to help us survive.
