What if you know the consciousness could be the principle that organizes information processing in brains, could be the same principles or similar principles that work across other cells as well? Then the organism organizes itself. It's information processing. What we noticed is that all

cells can send conditional signals to neighboring cells, right? Not only neurons can do this, and so uh why is it that only brains are able to think and perform operations that allow brains to model reality and interact with it? Maybe other cells can do that too, right? Is this a revolutionary

idea for most cultures? It's not for Neuroscience. It is because Neuroscience knows only neurons can compute, for some reason I don't know why, uh and uh all the other cells that are adjacent to the neurons do not really contribute very much. Uh, on the other hand, we notice that

the ones of the other cells don't run in simulations. So basically, there is no model in neurons. It is complex enough to actually replicate learning and control as it happens in nervous systems. If you put this into a simulator, they're able to uh get abstract features of neurons,

right, and so on. And we see a lot of interesting things that we look at the connectome, but we cannot actually model the brain or a drop portion of it in an adequate way. But we actually have the neurons as switching units. And this could

be because our models are incomplete, but but it could also be because we are missing something. Maybe uh neurons are basically just telegraph cells. I suspect that neurons have evolved for a very particular purpose: to move our muscles very fast. And to do this, we basically

needed to build viruses into our organisms that translate information very, very quickly. They have a higher metabolic cost and they need to speak a specific code so it's stable over long distances. They basically speak in more "qu" to each other in these spike trains and these

spike trains are, uh, have different strains than the cellular communication to neighbors. If you just want to talk to your neighbors, there are many ways of doing this. You can elicit them a mechanical signals just by pushing at the membrane of another cell to can

exchange all sorts of chemicals. You even can send over RNA to send very complicated messages, but the spread of these CES is going to be limited by the jumping from cell to cell, and this means that CLE propagation is going to be like millimeters or centimeters per second at best,

which means it's magnitudes slower than what the nervous system. And so once you evolve the telegraph cells to move your muscles very fast to compete with other animals at a high metabolic cost, you also need to do perception and decision-making at the same rate. So you build an

information processing system out of telegraph cells, and this telegraph network is able to make sense of reality and control the organism very quickly. But this doesn't mean that the other cells do not have opinions as well, right? So it's quite conceivable that if you are a multicellular organism that lives

for long enough, that this makes the model of reality that allows this organism to discover itself and the world and solve problems in the same way as a nervous system would do. It's just going to be a couple magnitudes slower than our nervous systems operate, but

This is a hypothesis that, um, most of our science is very uncurious about, which is weird when you think about it, right? It makes sense that plants have operating systems similar to animals that run on them, but you, they would not need to use specific cell

types, so you don't need to look for nerves in plants. You also, for information transmission in our organism, is not always necessary, uh, dedicated cell types which do this because any kind of cell type can be recruited in sending information towards the organism.

의식은 뇌와 잠재적으로 다른 세포의 정보 처리를 조직화할 수 있습니다.

왜 뇌만 생각하는지에 대한 의문을 제기하며 다른 세포도 비슷한 방식으로 정보를 처리할 수 있다고 제안합니다.

신경과학의 제한된 관점: 뉴런만 계산하고 다른 세포의 기여는 무시합니다.

현재 모델은 신경계의 학습과 제어를 적절하게 재현하는 데 어려움을 겪고 있습니다.

현재 모델에서 뉴런은 스위칭 단위로 단순화되어 중요한 측면이 누락될 수 있습니다.

가설: 뉴런은 주로 고비용의 빠른 정보 전달 시스템을 사용하여 빠른 근육 움직임을 위해 진화했습니다.

뉴런은 다른 세포가 사용하는 느린 방법과 달리 빠른 통신을 위해 스파이크 트레인을 사용합니다.

다른 세포는 기계적 신호, 화학적 교환, RNA 전달을 통해 통신하지만 신경 전달보다는 느립니다.

세포 간 통신이 느리면 신경계에 비해 정보 전파 속도가 제한됩니다.

신경계의 역할과 다른 세포의 잠재력

빠른 근육 움직임은 전신 세포(뉴런)로 구성된 빠른 정보 처리 시스템을 필요로 합니다.

다른 세포들도 더 느리지만 비슷한 현실과 문제 해결 모델에 기여할 수 있습니다.

이 가설은 과학계에서 거의 탐구되지 않은 분야입니다.

식물은 동물과 유사한 운영 체제를 가지고 있지만 정보 전달을 위한 특수 세포 유형이 없습니다.
