#89: Consciousness, Perception & Reality - Donald Hoffman, PhD
The FitMind Podcast: Mental Fitness, Neuroscience & Psychology
Is There a Massive Filter of Information That Is Available to Our Conscious Awareness?
i want to run it by you, and you can please correct me. But my understanding is there's a bunch of energy out coming in different forms. And due to evolutionary constraints, we don't have the energy of the calories to take in all that information that might be useful. So we evolve, through our five senses and other senses we might not even really be aware of,. We evolve to take in a small fraction of all that information and use what was useful to get our jeans into the next generation. Is that more or less in line with your theory? That's pretty as, pretty accurate. Absolutely.
