Friends star Lisa Kudrow gets philosophical with Bill Maher and says she no longer believes consciousness lives in your head at all.
Kudrow, who studied biology, says consciousness “exists in a field.”
Maher was visibly confused about what the heck she was talking about until she referred to his smoking habit.
KUDROW: “I’ve been listening to physicists are thinking about the difficult question of consciousness and deciding that what makes the most sense is its consciousness is not in here [the brain]. It exists in a field, the field that is everywhere. But it’s not in here.”
MAHER: “I don’t understand that. What do you mean everywhere?”
KUDROW: “You like writing while smoking, right? Or being altered in some way?”
MAHER: “Yes, exactly.”
KUDROW: “Neuroscientists are saying the brain is a great filter, especially this front part… Once you make the filter a little more permeable, you’re getting access to some things. And creativity is one of those things that maybe doesn’t start here [the head], but it comes in when you’re in a flow.”
MAHER: “And that’s what the machines can’t do.”
What’s your take on this? Is consciousness just a product of the brain, or is Kudrow onto something here?

@tariqkrim I don't agree on this one: current hybrids are only a solution for people doing like ~25km/day *if* charged nightly (spoiler alert: they are mostly not). On average they run on their ICE like 80% of the time, burn more fuel (heavier) and have worst emissions.

Le plus drôle c'est qu'ils recommandent webp PARTOUT sans qu'il ne soit 100% bien géré. Les migrations ne sont pas terminées qu'AVIF pointe déjà le bout de son nez 🤡

Attention, c'est pas beau à voir.
Je valide. Plus qu'un ministère de plein exercice dans un contexte où le numérique est désormais partout (on n'est plus en 2002), il faudrait conférer au SGG (le truc qui fait tourner la boutique) une véritable compétence numérique pour mettre au pas toute la technostructure
