Identical restoration ch7 13
Conscious control of behavior problem:
• Defining the problem • No known natural causes for this difference • Introduction of Supernatural influences as a cause • Inability to predict consciousnesses based on physapaths and behaviorpaths (but not the ixperiencitness) • Inability to predict ixperiencitness based on physapaths and behaviorpaths (but not the consciousness) • Devastating to technology if the differences are not predicable or small • The person's consciousness inability to control his own behavior • The continuum of possible degrees of conscious control over behavior from unnoticeable to producing insanity • Do you notice a difference in consciousness and your bodies behavior • Asking everyone if they control their behavior • since behavior will not be a reliable source of information about a person consciousness you can never know if there are predictable aspects of this change • experiments with electronic conscious beings and their behavior • The effect on restoration and replication experiments • After the identical physasection is produced there may be memories of the inability to control the behavior and this then can be expressed or knowledge that the experiences were correct and in alignment with actual conscious desires. • Lacking knowledge of this “not being able to control your behavior” or “to express your actual consciousness” • There can be all sorts of different ways of going into a nearly identical repetition and many different ways to leave the identical repetition. Some of these paths, it seems, will have an awareness of this inability to consciously control one's behavior and then to express this awareness • for this to continue beyond the repetition there would not only have to be lying or continued inability to express ones experiences correctly. •
Defining the problem: Superimmortality predicts that the repetition of identical or near identical physasections in the same body not only produces identical behaviorsections but also identical awaresections and ixpesections. Does the behavior of a body always have to mirror, reflect, indicate the consciousness being produced by the body? How much control of behavior do we consciously have? Can we have two identical physasections produced by the same body, producing identical behavior but not producing identical consciousness?
Will behavior always give evidence about the consciousness produce by a body?
Total discontinuity of consciousness and behavior: an entirely different consciousness is being produced from what the behavior is indicating is being produced for example the body screams in painful agony but the consciousness experiences the screem but does not feel any pain and wonders why the body keeps saying it is in terrible pain. If we trace the nerves signals that produced the scream back to where they are coming, they are coming from the brain. The brain is producing this behavior. How can the brain be producing a behavior different from the consciousness it is producing? Lying, behavior subconsciously being controlled, the consciousness can be accepting of this unconscious control of behaviorpath
How can external observers determine if this or variations of this condition is happening? Gradual expansive approximation, pre examination post examination There can be both the study of physapath and behaviorpaths before and after this physasection with multiple questions and other sensepaths
Gradual expansive approximation: in determining the consciousness (awarepath) produced by a physapath is where the physapath or physasection is slightly changed in different ways to see if more information about the consciousness produced by the physapath can be determined. This is especially useful when the behavior does not reflect the actual consciousness produced. As the physapath is changes the changes may produce an increased ability of the consciousness to more accurately represent itself from information from the behavior. Eventually consciousnesses may be more and more willing to express information about themselves
Gradual expansive current examination,
Gradual expansive pre-examination: In cases where there is a hidden consciousness
Gradual expansive post-examination:
Consciousness seems to reflect the functioning of the brain. One purpose of consciousness might be to simplify the functioning of the brain so that decisions can be made faster and better. Another reason for consciousness might be communication between parts of the brain. If you scream that you are in pain the ears will pick up this information and it will inter the brain in another form in another part of the brain through the ears. Consciousness is the development of concepts that are shared in different ways through the brain in different forms increasing the ability to solve problems. For example, what is a concept like hunting in the brain. As the brain processes the concept of hunting it goes through many iterations of neuron firing patterns. We often need novel solutions to solve a problem. How do we get the brain to produce new solutions? It has to function in different ways. How do you get the brain to function in a way that provides a novel solution to a novel situation? how does a concept get unified simplify and then transmitted through the brain for the different part to add to the solution? Different parts of the brain will add to the complexity of the solution.
Partial discontinuity
Percentage wise divergence or spectrum divergence from the actual conscious being produced
No known natural causes for this difference
What could produce the condition of the behavior not not reflecting the consciousness that it produced before? --- supernatural effects, What natural conditions would produce this situation the person is not going to tell you that he has a different consciousness. There would be no way to see a difference in consciousness between the original and the repetition this eliminates the ability to predict anything about the consciousness produced. Can there even be any limitations to the consciousnesses or awaresections that are produced in the repetition when the consciousness and behavior do not match? There would be no connection between the physapath and the consciousness produced. And no connection between the behaviorpath and the consciousness produced. Would we notice this? If it can not reproduce the identical consciousness, how do you know that you are the first time this physasections was produced? There could be levels of it where we might not recognize the difference in behavior in relation to consciousness. It (the different consciousness) may not happen all of the time. Consciousness my be different but the ixperiencitness might still be the identical.
What could be the advantage of the hypothesis that there is a different consciousness produced with identical or near identical physasections in the same body? Why would we want it to be the case that identical physapaths do not produce identical awarepaths and ixperiencitnesses? You would have to conclude that the brain is some times to always not producing consciousness or that something else is producing consciousness because the brain is functioning identically. How could it be producing a difference in consciousness? In this case it is the same body, so if there is something special in the same body to keep producing the same consciousness and ixperiencitness there should not be a difference in consciousness.
Lets say that a repetition of a physapath in the same body does produce a different consciousness but still produces the same ixperiencitness, less predictive but still very useful you may not know what you are going to experience in a repetition but you will still experience it.
