The first sentence had me thinking that Wisdom and/or Karma could create awareness (being from that idea that "matter is aware of itself"), so then about the Computer: Are you saying that Wisdom Energy, in this context, has an advantage over the AI? Or I'm completely confused...
I wasn't referring to the computer from the series, but just computers in general. Perhaps the AI computer uses wisdom energy?
Being I'm a little more awake than when I wrote that, I think I understand now. From you saying the following:
An awareness has an advantage over any computer we have thus far made in that it is not simply processing through a database, but rather we are aware of the process of thinking and can make intuitive and creative leaps.
In sum, you're saying
because our brains work differently than computers ("processing through a database"), we can make room for innovation whereas computers cannot because computers follow a checklist whereas
we can make changes anytime we wish. Correct?
That being said, where does that fit in Submachine? Unless the point you just made is the point you were trying to make: Perhaps the AI uses Wisdom Energy (if such a thing exists.)
OH WAIT! "intuitive and creative leaps" - The Wisdom Energy's presence is why we can solve elaborate puzzles! Right? Being we may be so exposed to this Energy, thus the benefit of coming out the SubNet.
Understand, if wisdom energy does have something to do with human awareness, then it is not just a property within the subnet, but rather one that perhaps has MORE properties in the subnet, as ancient crystal was saying. Perhaps, however, there is a relationship between the puzzles and the submachines wishing to harvest wisdom energy from humans. I don't know if I buy that as plausible though, just possible.
I'm not so sure of that suggestion either, but I'd like you expand on the "more properties in the SubNet" part. On another subject, when you say "not just a property within the SubNet," you're referring to humans have awareness regardless of surroundings, right?
I just had the thought that perhaps the Subbots were created to give the SubNet awareness...through an evolutionary process, the Subbots were created with that intention.
I never saw it as a VR type of thing, but just figured that was how the thing insured that we shifted layers. But I do like the idea that it is somehow drawing on an energy source within us.
I guess -ak-'s Absorption Theory has another addition to it then:
I think when person died, their body is absorbed into Submachine and become certain type of machine to intergrate their functions to become the whole among other machines in Submachine Net.
Seems all these Theories always go back to the suggestion that the SubNet is taking energy from humans
I kinda tend to think whatever kind of portal energy karma is, it is either incompatible with the subnet environment, or else, as perhaps ancient crystal is suggesting (if I understand him right) Mur is just not using karma in a way that is compatible with the subnet. As for the notes, I'm just not ready to start tossing notes out as blatant deceptions. I wouldn't know when to stop doing that and I don't think there is any precedents for it.
I agree with your first suggestion, although it's a rebuttal to my Theory: Karma may be incompatible with the SubNet.
The laws over karma/wisdom may exist in our world, just have greater effect in the subnet.
Exactly, like how in
Thor -
Your ancestors called it magic...but you call it science. I come from a land where they are one and the same.
On Earth, we regard Karma and Wisdom as non-physical, but, perhaps, in the SubNet, they're real.
