With the rise of brain-interface technology and artificial intelligence that can imitate brain functions, understanding the nature of consciousness and how it interacts with reality is not just an age ...

In grammar, we learn about the past, present, and future tenses from an early age. This shapes our understanding of time as a one-way arrow. Eggs break, but don’t un-break; we grow older, but never ...

Understanding the interplay between consciousness, energy and matter could bring important insights to our fundamental understanding of reality. With the rise of brain-interface technology and ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: As a quantum physicist, my work has led me to believe we could drastically enhance human consciousness, the inexplicable machinations that make you ...

For centuries, the question of what consciousness is—where it comes from, and what it does—was left to philosophers and mystics. But now, scientists across biology, neuroscience, and physics are ...

Modern physics has been shaped by great minds, yet somehow physics hasn’t explained what the mind is. For decades consciousness was not a respectable area of inquiry in physics, yet the great quantum ...

Consciousness is the ultimate question of existence. Nothing is more essential than our experience. Yet we have no consensus, and perhaps no clue, about what it actually is. The trouble, in part, is ...

For more than a century, physics has steadily shifted away from the idea that solid matter is the bedrock of reality. At the deepest levels, what once appeared to be particles are described ...

Here's what you'll learn when you read this story: In my view, there are certain biological limitations to human creativity, and if my theory is correct, we could one day create "enhanced humans" that ...
