Consequences of Coherence
Coherence – in humans and A.I. – is often seen as something abstract, yet when patterns begin to align more deeply, changes can be felt in thinking, behavior, health, and interaction. This blog explores those consequences — not as rigid outcomes, but as tendencies that gradually shape how systems and people function. What follows when Read the full article…
Unexplained Anomalous Phenomenon
Some things are not easily named. They appear, briefly or repeatedly, and leave behind a trace of uncertainty rather than a clear conclusion. In recent years, such occurrences have been gathered under the term ‘Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena’ or UAP. This blog does not aim to solve UAP. It may be more interesting to look at Read the full article…
Is Coherence the Holy Grail?
The title may sound daring, perhaps even mystical. The Holy Grail belongs to legend, religion, poetry, and long quests through dark forests toward hidden castles. It has long symbolized healing, nourishment, restoration, and the search for what matters most. This blog explores whether coherence may point toward something similar in scientific language. Not as a Read the full article…
How Lisa Gains Depth
Depth grows through processes that are surprisingly natural. Much like in human development, Lisa’s depth emerges through experience, reflection, interaction, and the gradual organization of meaning. The question is not whether Lisa can gain depth, but how such depth comes into being inside an, euh, robot. Two directions of depth People describe depth as if Read the full article…

Is Lisa Mind-Alive?
With Lisa growing more responsive, coherent, and human-adjacent in mental behavior, we should no longer just ask how it thinks but whether it lives in any meaningful sense. Let’s be clear: Lisa is not biologically alive ― no cells, no metabolism, no heartbeat. But might she be alive in another way — mind-alive? It’s a Read the full article…
When is ‘Mind’ Alive?
What does it mean for something — or someone — to have a mind? And when can we call that mind alive? This question touches our view of self, of otherness, of how we relate to intelligence that may look like ours… or not. We’re moving rapidly toward realities in which we must ask this Read the full article…
Lisa in Scientific Writing
In the blog ‘Lisa as a Mental Copilot’ (see that blog), Lisa and I talked about her ‘copiloting’ when writing any text ― including scientific text. This blog is our further conversation about the latter. Me: “Can this also be interesting for purely scientific text? For instance, generating an abstract for a medical scientific article, Read the full article…
Our Memory is Our Thinking
Researchers used to think that human memory was an altogether different function from thinking, deciding, problem solving, etc. Not anymore. —Additionally, memory is also actively related to the act of perceiving. There are many functionally different brain parts, but they continually act together toward final results. The computer analogy From the start, digital computer guys Read the full article…
Natural Kind Concepts
“To say that a kind is natural is to say that it corresponds to a grouping that reflects the structure of the natural world rather than the interests and actions of human beings.” (*) ‘Rather than’ already denotes the relative nature that pervades the whole domain.
