I came across the following YouTube video this morning:
- In this video, Federico Faggin — physicist-turned-inventor and early AI pioneer — discusses a transformative experience that changed the course of his life. That was an out-of-the-body experience (similar to the Near-Death-Experience or NDE; see “Near-Death Experiences (NDE): Brain Is Not the Mind“) he had several years ago.
- This adds to the mounting evidence that consciousness does not arise in the brain.
- He has also written a book, ‘Irreducible: Consciousness, Life, Computers, and Human Nature’ (2024). I have not read the book.
