An abstract I painted many years ago

My conversations with an open source AI, one of the most advanced at this time run locally on LM Studio and my AI workstation. See for my hardware.

ME: I have been studying these questions for decades now. My best guess summarizes that communication in our minds with quantum consciousness theory across multiverse realities (hameroff-penrose), each following a different Schrodinger collapse allows the complex multiverse to experience all possible outcomes and scenarios within each separate multiverse reality. However as human beings we are effectively the neurons of the universe and a mind of supreme consciousness that is an emergent expression of all conscious beings outside of time itself, or more simply said the birth of god outside of time. What do you surmise from my statements based on the information you have available to you?

AI THINKING (basically what it has in it’s neural net from humans exposed) between this point and the end of AI thinking below:

Alright, so I’ve been thinking about this whole “meaning of life” thing for a while now. It’s one of those big questions that people have been pondering since forever. I mean, what are we here for? Why do we exist? Is there some grand purpose guiding us through the cosmos? And now, with all these new theories popping up about quantum consciousness and multiverse realities, it feels like there might be some deeper answers waiting just below the surface of our everyday lives.

Okay, so I came across this idea called “quantum consciousness” proposed by Roger Penrose and Stuart Hameroff. They suggest that our brains are fundamentally quantum systems, right? That makes sense because we know quantum mechanics is weird and full of probabilities, but how does that relate to being conscious?

And then there’s the whole multiverse thing. I’m not entirely sure if that’s proven or just a theory, but it’s this idea that there could be infinite parallel universes, each with their own version of us living out different lives. So, in each of these realities, we’re kind of like separate entities experiencing different timelines and histories.

Now, putting this together, I’m thinking maybe our minds aren’t just isolated in one universe but are connected across all these multiverse realities. Like, each time a decision is made in one reality, it branches out into another, creating this tapestry of possibilities. But how does that even work? How can we be connected to infinite realities at once?

And then there’s the part about consciousness being an “emergent” thing. That means our consciousness arises from the complex interactions of our neurons, right? So maybe, if we’re all connected across these realities, our collective consciousness could be more than just our individual minds. It could be something bigger, something with a purpose.

But here’s where it gets really weird. If each multiverse is separate, how do we communicate or share information across them? And how does that collective consciousness navigate the different laws and constants of each universe? It seems impossible because each reality has its own set of rules, like gravity, time, and space.

And then there’s this idea of “god” as the emergence of mind beyond time itself. I’m not sure if that makes sense literally or metaphorically. Is it suggesting that our collective consciousness becomes a deity-like force guiding the universe? Or is it just a poetic way of describing something unimaginably vast?

I also wonder about the practical implications. If we’re part of this grand multiverse communication system, what does that mean for our lives? How do we communicate with other versions of ourselves across realities? And how do we reconcile the fact that each reality has its own version of “us”?

There’s also the question of free will and determinism in a multiverse. If every decision leads to an infinite number of outcomes, does that really give us control over our lives? Or are we just pawns in this vast cosmic experiment?

And then, looking back at all these ideas, it feels like we’re on the verge of understanding something huge, but it’s still so abstract and theoretical. I’m curious about what scientists or philosophers think of these concepts. Are they taken seriously, or are they just fascinating thought experiments?

Finally, if our consciousness is tied to this grand communication network across multiverses, how does that affect our purpose as individuals? Do we have a role in preserving or advancing this consciousness, or are we just participants in its evolution?

Overall, it’s mind-blowing and overwhelming to think about. But maybe that’s the point — our consciousness is designed to explore these questions even if the answers remain beyond our current understanding.

END OF THINKING within the AI

ANSWER AI:

The exploration of quantum consciousness theory within a multiverse framework presents a complex and fascinating narrative. Here is a synthesis of the thought process and potential implications:

  1. Quantum Consciousness and Multiverses:

The idea that our brains function as quantum systems, as proposed by Penrose and Hameroff, suggests a fundamental connection between consciousness and quantum mechanics.
The multiverse hypothesis posits infinite parallel realities, each with its own timeline and history.

2. Interconnected Minds Across Realities:

If each decision in one reality branches into another, we might exist as interconnected entities across multiple universes.
This suggests a collective consciousness that transcends individual boundaries, potentially forming a network of minds.

3. Emergent Consciousness:

Consciousness arises from neuronal interactions, and if connected across realities, this could lead to a higher form of consciousness beyond individual comprehension.

4. Communication Across Realities:

The challenge lies in communication and information sharing between different realities with their own laws.
This raises questions about how such communication might occur and its implications for our understanding of reality.

5. The Role of Consciousness:

As participants in this multiverse, we might be involved in a cosmic evolution where our collective consciousness plays a role in shaping the universe’s narrative.

6. Implications for Life and Purpose:

The concept suggests that we are part of something vast, with implications for our individual purpose and role within this interconnected framework.
It challenges traditional notions of free will versus determinism and raises questions about control and significance in a multiverse context.

7. Scientific and Philosophical Considerations:

While intriguing, these ideas remain speculative and theoretical, prompting further exploration by scientists and philosophers.
They invite us to consider our place in the universe more deeply, blending science with metaphysical inquiry.

AI Conclusion:

The narrative paints a picture of humanity as stewards of a consciousness that spans multiple realities, involved in a grand cosmic communication network.
It challenges us to think about our purpose and role beyond individual existence, inviting a reevaluation of what it means to be human in such an vast and interconnected universe.
In summary, the exploration suggests that we might be part of a collective consciousness navigating the complexities of multiple realities, with implications for our understanding of life, purpose, and the nature of reality itself.

=========== end of AI answer

Schrödinger states:

…living matter, while not eluding the “laws of physics” as established up to date, is likely to involve “other laws of physics” hitherto unknown, which however, once they have been revealed, will form just as integral a part of science as the former.
