Wonderful interview, thank you. I have briefly interacted with Bernardo and agree he's incredibly smart but have observed how that can also bring its own form of suffering.
Have you ever spoken to Donald Hoffman of UC Irvine? His interview with Lex Fridman (#293) is highlighted by breaking Lex's brain with the assertion that brains do not produce consciousness, consciousness produces brains. Great example of a classically trained person struggling with an entirely new paradigm. https://youtu.be/reYdQYZ9Rj4?si=6dVYpv6kcMDMC1DC&t=9001
How many angels dance on the head of a pin? Experience will teach you the zen of it all..

Thank you! I haven’t spoken to Hoffman but know his work. I will take a look!
