PersimmonCatshark Hello PersimmonCatshark. Thanks for your reply. Your “…potentially fertile” response is all that I hoped to gain from this essay. Am I correct that the “trans-
abstractable” aspects you refer to are how to use the fundamentals of successful creation in religion, philosophy, mathematics, etc.? If so I think you will like the successful creation potential to do so.
In response to follow up, I will address your direct questions and then try to address the measurement problem, Consciousness and subjectivity. It may take more than one reply.
Cs and their relationships to Plank actions are addressed in a previous fqxi essay. Just go to google search and type in fqxi Clarification of Physics and you should get the essay that introduces Cs, Planck actions and the creation of space, time, mass and their relationships. Also, in this same creation process, the quantum creativity becomes repeating quantum “mechanical” processing with all of its seemingly hard to understand idiosyncrasies. After reading that article we can discuss its implications. That same article introduces successful creation mathematics and its elimination of infinitesimals, infinities and zero (nothing). Basically it invents a “new” system of changing and and a new way to calculate it. So the calculus based on infinitesimals, infinities and zero (nothing) no longer apply. It simplifies the mathematics of physics.
Now to a discussion of the measurement problem - does the Schrödinger equation really collapse? In successful creation, the consciously directed, creative, Bayesian progression creates and try’s all of the possibilities, selects those with a continuing probability (eliminates what is not working), continues the trials and selects the one (best) result. In this progression, the full extent of all of the possibilities and probabilities are never realized. There is not a “collapse” of the possibilities but a progressive creation of the result that best satisfies consciousness (and overcomes entropy - i.e. continues to live and progress).
What is it about consciousness that allows it to direct creative activity and select the best progression? C*s contain the ability to sense/feel deviations in its normal(preferred) composition and trigger a creative response that returns the deviation back to normal. That capability is inheritable and improvable as it progresses in successful creation. If we put that in “human terms” the deviations cause pain (the greater the deviation the greater the pain) and the return generates equivalent and opposite “pleasure.” As it progresses the Bayesian progression can feel if it is generating pain or pleasure, Stop the painful processing, Continue the pleasure producing processing and eliminate a lot of useless and time consuming trials. It is like an AI trainer telling the system if it is getting closer or farther away from the desired result. This improves the by chance aspect of “as it is” science science and allows successful creativity to occur faster than what would be expected “as it is” science. The goal of consciousness is to balance pain and pleasure and minimize the duration and intensity of the pain. The consciously directed, creative, Bayesian progression satisfies consciousness by developing the shortest, fastest, most efficient processing that emerges from its source, develops the processing that continues to live (overcomes entropy) and returns to its source and repeats. In ancient terminology, it became an ouroboros - an eternally, repeating, overall unchanging, every component is changing, conscious, circulating process in which everything is connected. That original processing created the fundamentals that were adhered to in each step of the Bayesian processing of successful creation. I am sure you will have questions that I can try to answer and use tha answers to improve the essays. Regards
