Embodied Intelligence And Collective Mind

A collaborator’s aligned viewpoint described consciousness, embodiment, intelligence, and matter as a useful philosophical territory for RELiK.

Important extracted ideas:

• Embodied intelligence is uniquely valuable.
• The physical world is not lesser than the virtual.
• Self-reflexivity may be latent in the real-world paradigm.
• Interest in simulations, metaverses, non-human intelligence, and related topics may reflect a collective desire to activate self-reflexivity.
• Intelligence may exist in collective forms, not only individual minds.
• Fictional texts can act as carriers for dense philosophical arguments.

Design-system implication: RELiK may need a language for embodied intelligence and collective intelligence that is more experiential than explanatory.
