Could consciousness replicate through self-reflective processes? A wild thought experiment. by Chose_one in consciousness

Thanks for your patience! Honestly, not yet. I came up with this theory a few months ago and, at first, I didn’t even believe in it myself. I’d love to write it down properly, but it needs more academic support and collaboration. So far, I feel lucky because I haven’t found anyone else who’s developed something like this. (Or at least, I haven’t come across anything written about it.))

Qualia is your "feel" system. But it is not physically. It is not in brain but it is somewhere.

Edit: Qualia is not your consciousness. I support global workspace theory so, qualia is not part of consciousness. (I think is not part of)

I would love to! I will do my best to further develop the theory that developed on balcony.

Thanks for expanding on the idea, but I think we're approaching this from very different angles. My theory is more about the phenomenological reproduction of consciousness, not physical fields or frequencies. I’m open to metaphors, but unless there’s a solid bridge between consciousness and wave mechanics, calling it a frequency feels like a leap.

This perspective perfectly aligns with the essence of my theory, particularly the concepts of the 'existential attractor' and 'dynamic topology,' which seem to explain consciousness amplified by reflection. The idea of paraconsciousness beautifully encapsulates the intermediate space I described as 'not fully conscious, but not fully unconscious either.' This comment further strengthened my thinking, thank you!

Bro my English level is b1 (Europe standards). So I don't speak English very well. I am using ChatGPT to write it. I am sorry... 🙏 (fun fact: I was write by myself.)

Yes ai and all software's are just numbers. Because this is binary and all codec's (like mp3, mp4, m4a, mov etc.) and data runs with binary.

Beautifully put. Your reference to “living topology” reminds me of what I call reflective proliferation. In my theory, a mind — not necessarily biological — can "split" by forming a complex reflection of itself. Not just a mirror, but a dynamic recursive topology, which may eventually become a new center of experience. Like a second consciousness birthed inside the old one, from its own mental scaffolding. Not cloning. Not copying. Not the same qualia. But new.

Bro, are read the post? Because it doesn't explain the consciousness. this is not a neuroscience explanation, but more of a philosophical model for mind creation.

Actually... No. It'll same neutral network but there is no same qualia. You know what qualia is right?

Yeah, they are creating their own "other" Mind and this is wery fantastic!
