Experiments performed on subjects who had the corpus callosum (the connection between hemispheres of the brain) severed, sometimes to treat chronic epilepsy, suggest that once the human brain is effectively divided in two, consciousness is also divided between the left & right hemispheres.
The result is two distinct perspectives and sets of understanding observable within one body, each controlling their respective side of the body, the two sides sometimes disagreeing or fighting each other. This challenges the idea that consciousness exists as an indivisible 'soul', a supernatural phenomenon existing outside of and independent from the matter that makes up the brain. https://www.psychologytoday.co...
You're right of course. We'll swiftly invent new jobs catering to a new height of luxuriant consumerism. That way we can avoid having to actually reduce anyone's working hours. God forbid we allow those evil AIs to grant us any free time!
Huh, I had trouble working that out from the Kickstarter. So if I wanted to put a Pi2 board into one of these, I'd have to get a keyboard from an original 1200?
