What is the Fermionic Mind Hypothesis?



Journal cover

The Activitas Nervosa Superior published a new manuscript, "Can the Fermionic Mind Hypothesis (FMH) Explain Consciousness? The Physics of Selfhood."

Biological systems must adapt to their environment. The ability to balance and produce intelligent responses depends on a precise mental model of the environment. The superb adaption of the physical laws means that quantum mechanics describes our psychology, such as decision-making. Comparison processes,  the central pillars of intellect, are also utilized by artificial intelligence: Alphazero can learn by comparing game outcomes. The mind's predictive intelligent processing is equivalent to the temporal equivalent of stationary action in physics. As material systems observe the principle of least action when moving in space, biological systems optimize their action repertoire between the past and the future. 

Access to air, water, food, and mating modulates behavior between urgency and relaxation. Conscious focus is not under conscious control but is the function of motivation. We cannot suppress our thoughts or our emotions, nor can we turn them off at will. We say things we do not mean, lie, and commit a crime because we are slaves to our emotions. The failure to consciously guide behavior leads to remorse, shame, and regret. Nevertheless, conscious attention represents just the visible surface of the particle-like isolation of the mental content. 

Despite dramatic changes in perception, field effects maintain a conscious continuum from infancy to old age. Qualia's unique, intractable qualities remain intimately linked with the self. The introspectively accessible, phenomenal aspects of the mind are at the very heart of the mind-body problem. The fermionic mind hypothesis (FMH) recognizes that the mind is a self-regulating system that forms the smallest unit of intellect; consciousness is an awareness of being separate from the environment.

Why is it important?
Understanding consciousness is the next great frontier in the sciences. Recognizing the energy nature of emotions can provide tools for people to achieve their human potential and nspire new, effective treatments for mental diseases, such as depression. Understanding how the mind works can inspire new types of quantum computers and deep learning systems.
