Multiway minds with Stephen Wolfram

Can you hold in your mind two different threads of experience? In this five-minute excerpt from my conversation with Stephen Wolfram, he introduces the strange idea of a multiway mind. Most of the time, we as observers succeed in weaving multiple different paths through the multiway graph into a single thread of experience. In some circumstances, however, we’re unable to do this. If we’re unfortunate enough to find ourselves on the surface of a black hole – at the event horizon in physical space, at the entanglement horizon in branchial space – we might find ourselves frozen, unable to form a classical thought. In just five minutes, Stephen not only introduces the possibility of multiple threads of experience in a single mind, he also succeeds in weaving in diverse topics from quantum computing to societal decision-making. — Stephen Wolfram Stephen Wolfram The Wolfram Physics Project Wolfram Institute Wolfram Institute Community Discord Concepts mentioned by Stephen Quantum computing Distributed computing Event horizons and entanglement horizons Branchial space — The Last Theory is hosted by Mark Jeffery founder of Open Web Mind I release The Last Theory as a video too!
