Excerpts

Most human reasoning is not algorithmic. That is, it does not (overtly at least) proceed in

accordance with rules of logic and/ or mathematics and/or probability, or any other rules that could be incorporated into a computer program.”

 

material interaction can only convert quantum possibilities into other quantum possibility,

never actuality. … So von Neumann suggested that an observer’s consciousness must be

a nonmaterial dual entity.”

 

“… as we move more deeply into the biological sciences, and as we get more and more into the fundamentals, we will run into deeper puzzles that will change our views too.”

— Roger Penrose
