The Alchemist's Equivalence: a dialogue. Dr. John Computationalist, a computer scientist, sits across from Dr. Marcus Doubtful, a physicist turned philosopher. John: Look, Marcus, I think you're being way too doom-and-gloom about where we're headed. Yeah, sure, we don't have all the
You check your blog and realize it's been eleven months since your last post—ironically, that post was itself a reassurance that you were still around after a previous silence. Time has a peculiar way of dissolving when you're immersed in work. Eleven Months In that
The truth is, I've been busy with a significant breakthrough: the first implementation of a Geneosophic expression. Specifically, I've been working on the conceptual expression of a neuron, which can be verified in the third person and executed on a computer.
This article suggests that the scientific community is far from reaching a consensus. While I concur with the premise that our current paradigm falls short in answering this question, I part ways with the view that we are at the beginning of our journey. In fact, we have developed Geneosophy,
Today, I was having a conversation with one of the individuals I collaborate with on Geneosophy. As is often the case, I asked him if we haven't collectively lost our minds with Geneosophy. This question arises because when you delve into Geneosophic comprehension, you enter a realm where
This is an unusually long post, but also quite interesting in my humble opinion. Given the extraordinary success of large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, how should their capabilities be evaluated? Will LLMs eventually replace humans in their jobs, or will they primarily serve as productivity tools, similar to
I am currently working on Formal Geneosophy, which deals with the practical applications of Theoretical Geneosophy. I was tempted to describe the tools developed within Formal Geneosophy as the Algebra of Possibilities. However, algebra deals with actualities or the manipulation of numbers and equations. The term "algebra" comes
It seems that Milan is going through a period of renaissance, unlike in 2014 when I left and some friends are moving back to Milan as well. I am not moving back, I will be there for just one month.
I find it useful to be able to compare Geneosophy with the thought of other thinkers. It is a bit like being able to discuss with Bergson, at least as close as it gets.
Consciousness is the holy grail of our quest to comprehend who we are. We feel conscious, there is no doubt about it. But understanding consciousness has been outside our reach so far. It is a strange state of affairs, we have elucidated so many mysteries about the world, thanks to
Science is considered to be at the pinnacle of human achievements, a truth seeking enterprise of rationality and objectivity, based on the scientific method introduced by Galileo. Given the innumerable successes of science, one does not feel the need to take a leap of faith when embarking in the scientific
We are brought up communicating in language, but language fools us into thinking that we do know what THINGS ARE, that we comprehend what the abstract THING IS. Thus we conceive of our minds as being the cognitive THING that can be understood and implemented within the computer metaphor: input
The following sentences should convey a concept: * If YOU comprehend but do not understand, YOU have an intuition. * If YOU comprehend and also understand, then YOU can explain. * But if YOU understand without having comprehended YOU can only parrot. Do you only understand or understand and comprehend the concept? As
Metaphorically speaking, understanding Geneosophy requires embarking on a voyage to explore a previously unknown continent and dedicating oneself to learn the habits, customs and laws of the local population. It is an impossible journey for those who do not like to travel, those who are happy with their beliefs, those
The Vitor is possibly the last description tool that is required to complete the Geneosophic toolbox; together with its enliving, it allows the comprehension of the behaviour of life. To sum it up: * the conceptor allows the Geneosophic description of the expression and modulation of a behaviour in enliving within
The metaphor of the puzzle can be applied to any of the sciences, although in neuroscience it is more evident. In neuroscience, we are faced with many objects that are considered part of the field: the neuron, the organs such as the cortex, the hippocampus, basal ganglia, etc. Going down
I spent the last four months imagining the reasoner, a Geneosophic projection that, together with the conceptor, can be used to comprehend the behaviour of evolution. The reasoner can be thought of as three conceptors interacting in a very specific way. While developing the reasoner, I applied it to the
It seems like all the bits and pieces of the formal Geneosophic approach are in place. We are now able to seamlessly move from Conceptual Geneosophy to formal Geneosophy in an essential and coherent way. Formal Geneosophy is extremely simple, once you have developed your own Geneosophic concepts. And yet
Once theoretical Geneosophy was complete, we felt like the theory could be applied to a case study. It turns out that moving from theoretical Geneosophy to formal Genesophy was not straightforward at all. It required us to develop a new framework. The framework was developed using the neuron as a
I have seen a concept in action, it is the enliving of a conceptor. First time a Geneosophic description has been implemented.
Plato had a strong intuition, but he did not turn it into a rational way to define concepts. Aristotle settled for a way to describe objects. Geneosophy deals with concepts.
