A Physics-First Perspective on Minds, Matter, and Meaning. Intelligence isn’t magic, and it isn’t something trapped inside brains or computers. Intelligence is a dynamic, low-algorithmic-entropy structure—a configuration of matter and energy sustained by physical laws and emerging under particular boundary conditions. It is not defined by what it’s made of, but by what it does: maintainContinue reading “What is Intelligence?”

The Universe Thinks
Why the Universe is full of Superintelligence. In my previous post, I argued that the leap from Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)—machines capable of human-level reasoning—to Artificial Superintelligence (ASI)—machines that far surpass our cognitive limits—is not just likely, but inevitable. Just as cars quickly outran the speed of human runners, intelligence too is poised to breakContinue reading “The Universe Thinks”
Gardner vs Carpenter
Life’s Antifragile Nature and The Pursuit of Perfection. In 2018, I found myself listening to an NPR interview with Alison Gopnik, an author and guest on the show. She introduced an intriguing analogy from her book—the Gardener and the Carpenter—that gave a fresh perspective on parenting styles. This concept resonated deeply with me. I’ve expandedContinue reading “Gardner vs Carpenter”
Free Will Resolved?
Computational Irreducibility and the Illusion of Freedom. The free will debate grapples with the question of whether individuals possess the ability to make autonomous choices, or if our decisions are solely the product of external influences, such as the laws of physics and causality. In recent years, the notion of computational irreducibility has emerged asContinue reading “Free Will Resolved?”
