Quotes

• “I believe that consciousness is the way information feels when being processed.”
• “So with each advance in understanding come new questions. So we need to be very humble. We shouldn't have hubris and think that we can understand everything. But history tells us that there is good reason to believe that we will continue making fantastic progress in the years ahead.”
• “If I get a parking ticket, there is always a parallel universe where I didn't. On the other hand, there is yet another universe where my car was stolen.”
• “... I would rather have questions that I can't answer than answers that I can't question. (variation of a remark by Richard Feynman)”
• “Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged.”
• “We have to get away from this idea today with some fact-checking sites which might themselves have an agenda and you just trust it because of its reputation. You want to have these sort of systems [where] they earn your trust and that is completely transparent.”
