Summary - Alex advocates - for a nonmaterialist perspective on consciousness and argues - that there is an urgency to educate the public on this perspective - due to the transhumanist agenda that could threaten the future of humanity - He argues that the problem of whether consciousness is best explained by materialism or not is central to resolving the threat posed by the direction AI takes - In this regard, he interprets that the very words that David Chalmers chose to articulate the Hard Problem of Consciousness reveals the assumption of a materialist reference frame. - He used a legal metaphor too illustrate his point: - When a lawyer poses three question "how did you kill that person" - the question is entrapping the accused . It already contains the assumption of guilt. - I would characterize his role as a scientist who practices authentic seeker of wisdom - will learn from a young child if they have something valuable to teach and - will help educate a senior if they have something to learn - The efficacy of timebinding depends on authenticity and is harmed by dogma

for - quote - Alex Gomez-Marin - I don't see that education is going on in schools. - I don't see that knowledge is being produced in universities. - I don't see a lot of healing happening in hospitals. And - I don't see a lot of food being sold in supermarkets

comment - we need to flip civilization - we do not live in a wellbeing civilization - one future alternative is commons-based, with tools such as the Indyweb, that can allow life-long learners to build up their own private store of information - individual, yet connected through interpersonal trust networks for social learning

for - adjacency- transhumanism - consciousness - quote - dark force of transhumanism - The transhumanist agenda to me is a very dark force. - It's a force that wants to extinguish humankind while telling us it's going to be great. - Consciousness is going to be key here

for - quote - straw man panpsychism - I see problems with panpsychism too - but when you make consciousness a fundamental property - this idea of oh so these glasses are conscious. - Come on we can be more sophisticated right? - So you don't need to straw man panpsychism in that way.

for - quote - We shouldn't have called it the hard problem of consciousness - By calling it a hard problem, - Yeah. Hard problems you can still solve and we shouldn't have called it a hard problem. - We should have said okay materialism just died.

Comment : insightful observation!

for - quote - materialism crime scene - Alex Gomez- Marin - the hard problem was I would say a covering up of the crime scene where materialism had died

Summary - Interesting adjacency with another video I've been watching, that focused on a Western monk's practice of Tibetan Buddhism, who after 12 years, entered a 4 year retreat and panicked - His demons emerged in the first 2 years of the retreat and he left but returned - This monk emphasized accepting the relationship with his demons instead of averting them and how craving and desire emphasized by Western civilllization is the cause of modernity's meaning crisis - to - Youtube - Diary of a CEO - Your brain is lying to you - Interview - Gerong Tupton - https://hyp.is/go?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DvIbLQQ1i56Y&group=world
