I was a militant atheist and convinced materialist for almost 10 years. A mystical experience similar to the one he described, although it cannot be described, was what converted me and today I am a theist. Indeed, it was something wonderful, powerful and unique.

Yes, atheism is blind faith in the irrational just as much as religious blind faith is. And Truth can indeed only be known through experience. Artificial intelligence can never become conscious, though fools and liars (e.g. Elon Musk) will say otherwise to suit their agendas. And the only thing Mr. Faggin is missing is the best-kept secret in this entire world: the reason WHY we are experiencing it; The Meaning of Life. I've published this information in various forms. Seek and ye shall find. Elijah has returned in these "end times," as prophesied, and testifies. And by the way, this will be the end of the world as we know it, and not the end of the world. The pain of the birthing of a New Age will be great, but the reward will be even greater: the return to Awareness; the reversing of The Fall into ignorance that put us here in the first place.

Check out “Where Science & Magic Meet” by Serena Roney-Dougal! I love this book & just bought a copy! From the publisher: “Is there a link between science and the occult? Are psychic phenomena natural rather than super-natural? In this revised and updated controversial book, Serena Roney-Dougal breaks down the traditionally-held barriers between science and magic. She points to a common ground that links developments in the new sciences with the ancient wisdom of the various occult and spiritual traditions. We share the exciting results of her research on the scientific validation of psychic phenomena. Drawing on her ground-breaking work on the pineal gland - something called the third eye - and the phenomenon of second sight, she shows that the greatest implication of psychic phenomena is that each of us is potentially aware of the natural magic of our earth and of everything in the universe.”
Those before us were called crazy, yet it is the absolute truth which has been hidden from society yet always present for centuries! Finally the planet is awakening and we are shifting the frequency to an unprecedented level! Love to you all - you're not alone, we're all absolutely connected.
Well I would like to thank youtube algorithm for leading me here while i was researching the phrase "Know Thyself", which was inscribed on the enterence of the Temple of Apollo, and also enterence to to kitchen of the Oracle in The Matrix. Trying to know myself has led me to Essentia Foundation, Faggin and d'Ariano. This theory blew my mind, changed the way i think about everything.
The same thing happened to me when I was 13 years old. While watching TV by myself I was zapped with a light that filled the room. The Light was pure love. It put me on a lifelong search for what had happened to me. I am 82 years old and I know well what happened to this physicist.
In my journaling one morning I asked “what is my purpose, your purpose in desiring to express life in the human, what I understand as the incarnation? “And this is what I wrote immediately without thinking, “ You cannot know love apart from me and I cannot feel love apart from you.” So simple, that every human can understand the desire to know and feel love! To see in one another what that looks like when we look for it!
Open AI and Midjourney are currently making great headway into the world of dream-killing. Using middle of the bell curve control to edit every thought… it’s truly breathtaking how insane that is. Setting that precedent at the inception of AI. Insanity can be defined as doing the same things as many dictators in history and expecting different results… but with AI censorship it’s so far beyond what any dictators ever dreamed of doing it’s staggering. We may be seeing the death of the future in that despotic impulse to control leaking into and being amplified by AI. I’m extremely intelligent and creative and about 75% of my diverse writing and art ideas are constantly being rejected. Its truly ignorant prejudice burning books. Not to mention humiliating. If you argue with them, like a codependent trying to explain themselves to a narcissist, they just dig in their heels and gaslight you-if you can even reach them. Try reaching open AI… good luck with that. Open is the EXACT OPPOSITE of what they are. It may be too late already. I was trying to finish up a book about how to prevent these kinds of issues but the control-freak precedent has been set…
I had realised recently through my own contemplating that the world is chaotic, random and seemingly pointless etc. Yet at the same time full of depth, mystery, love and incredible stories of good vs evil and chaos vs order. How he explained classical mechanics as the deterministic world void of meaning vs the inner world of consciousness being full of meaning and love now ties everything together. 💡
I had a similar experience long ago. Started buying popularized books on physics. I have been calling episodes Cosmic Intelligence. For me, it is true.
That is what people who have near death experiencers say. There are atheists who experience unconditional love during an NDE and they say they changed their selfish ways and began to see other people's well being as important. If you think about this really we project our consciousness constantly like when we dream, or plan, or watch a movie or read a book. We may be taking this ride on purpose.
Federico has it exactly right, along with Max Planck, Consciousness is a fundamental, congenital precursor to experience. Nothing else CAN experience anything. Can't make a scientific measurement without Consciousness, no matter how far removed from the Observer -- You
" We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent Mind. This Mind is the matrix of all matter." It seems like we may have chosen to watch this program or read this book or daydream this life. There is nothin like trying to wrap your head around all that. Aliens are for real too and they can manipulate consciousness. Aliens probably understood all of this super natural phenomena a long time ago. Crazy place this universe, huh?
Smart people can have diverse interests too. Certain scientists and inventors approached the idea of conciousness in various ways during their lifetime for that reason.
Fascinating! Thank you for this. It's time for a hypothesis/theory that allows for what can be measured and what can not be measured. These things arise mutually but most scientists believe that if it can not be measured it is not real or not important, which is madness, really.
Great to hear this from the creator of modern microchips. Great to hear him describe that computers will never achieve meta-consciousness. Very soon many ‘AGI’ researchers will find this out, when they again and again fail with their silly promises and expectations of creating ‘intelligent machines’. I assume that we will soon see breathtaking paradigm changes in physics, more fundamental than when we had to leave the geocentric worldview behind centuries ago. Exciting.
Beautiful conversation! I'd love to hear a conversation between Bernardo and Federico wherein they discuss if Bernardo's dissociation hypothesis fits Federico's basic model. We know that Bernardo considers atomic behavior to be the pixels on the screen of dissociated alters. It sounds as if Federico might grant more of an ontological reality to atoms (not as objects obviously). Would love to hear them discuss this and anything that catches their fancy.
Consciousness is made of a distributed quantum neural network that runs across the many-worlds versions of our own brains and possibilities where in some versions of reality they reassociate with trees, birds, other people, with some versions where we all are a Borg-like unified being. Then, all the past, and all the future, and all space, keep updating and modifying different locations. Never ending process of eternal REVISION.
@@tarukofusuki And so are you biased by "cultural scientific renown". It's so obvious that scientific consensus is something cultural that it's almost hilarant. How can we possibly have a consensus about something which is completely unknown like "consciousness" or "fundamental reality"? It's just ridiculous! True scientists that neglect consciousness doesn't neglect it because they think it is an epiphenomena (even if they think it is), they neglect it because they think it is just irrelevant. They actually know no shit about what the hell is going on at this level of reality, and I'm pretty sure that neglecting consciousness as something irrelevant is a huge mistake and the most important obstruction at this time for further discovering. We need those new questions that the paradigm shift can bring to us if we want to keep moving forward and escape from this stagnation that surrounds today's physics.
@@tarukofusuki Yeah, football and gaming is totally incompatible with philosophy... What was I thinking about? You know nothing about my philosophical background, and if you think you do because of the name of my channel then you're so confirmly lost in your bias that you can't even understand why are you biased. Btw, Faggin isn't describing consciousness by quantum mechanics, he is describing quantum mechanics by consciousness. It's a completely different approach and probably the right one if we want to keep moving forward in this kind of research. The "New Age" tag is just so, a tag. What it actually references is a completely disorganized movement that has borrowed, merged and mistaken concepts from all over the world and history, at the same time that a lot of "gurus" have used the power of those concepts to make profit. But denying the inner logic of the original concepts and the phenomena just because of that is generalizing to a silly extreme that denies all the underlying concepts and phenomena that exist much before the "new age" was born.
@@tarukofusuki "He wrote about extracorporeal experiences and other stupid anecdotes" Yeah, that shit obviously dismisses everything else, if you haven't had any extracorporeal experience, why should anybody else? Obviously there's something wrong with people who have experiences of phenomena that can't relate to yours because your life is almost as long as the time humanity has been around this world, lol I agree in that any assertion by itself isn't proof of anything, but dismissing and neglecting them is even worse. I don't think this man is lying, and his experiences must relate to something real, whatever it is.
The subject of the video-Federico Faggin (Italian pronunciation: [fedeˈriːko fadˈdʒin], Venetian: [faˈdʒiŋ]; born 1 December 1941) is an Italian physicist, engineer, inventor and entrepreneur. He is best known for designing the first commercial microprocessor, the Intel 4004. He led the 4004 (MCS-4) project and the design group during the first five years of Intel's microprocessor effort. Faggin also created, while working at Fairchild Semiconductor in 1968, the self-aligned MOS (metal-oxide-semiconductor) silicon-gate technology (SGT), which made possible MOS semiconductor memory chips, CCD image sensors, and the microprocessor.
It was like a miracle listening to the brilliant explanations of the most complicated things like consciousness and our existence created by it. Somehow the experience ,brought by my consciousness , knew what Dr. Faggin was explaining. Wonderful! 🙏
Wow, the logic of the Duality of the Unity and vice versa! This is the best effort I have come across to explain the Unitative Experience I have come across so far. Thank you Mr Faggin and Essentia Foundation for getting this out to us. They come to me at the right time - ha ha. So beautiful. It is not a coincidence that it happened through water. I had one before I knew what it could be in my 21st year. Even though I had no context for what I had experienced it changed my life going forward. I knew it was 'real' and I never forgot where I stood with a tree providing the experience, and I never forgot exactly how it felt. I had a second one with a mountain a few months later. The world is LOVE - it is as simple and as extraordinary as that. My experience was not the disintegration of self (although it may lie in the definition). It was the absence of ego and the melting away of my body. My response while in the experience was from what I would call my 'self' which is the awareness of the predominance of love above all, the love I felt for the tree and the realisation that love was coming from the tree to me. And then the same repeated with the mountain.
I'm thrilled to discover Federico Faggin. I have already looked on Amazon to see his books listed. I will put his book next to Donald Hoffman's and Bernardo's. It's gratifying to see that these modern day thinkers are discovering what ancient spiritual thinkers discovered. I can't help mentioning spiritual thinker, Mary Baker Eddy, who stated in the late 1880's that "All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation..."
Nice break from headlines saying consciousness is an illusion (to whom exactly). Nobody ever gets as far as the binding problem, much less taking the next step into on asking what is experiencing.
He is an example of it is the journey we must enjoy and not the destination. I think we are meant to build things or tear down. It is the day to day right here and now that should make u happy. If happy even is🌎☀️💙
Perhaps we come here to this lower density in order to be challenged and to help this planet rise in consciousness and rediscover the love and consciousness that we are .
Blessings to you, Sir, for the courage and insights that you share. This is truly deeply spiritual. I teach mindfulness for wellbeing and am trying to spread this awareness. As a Physics and Chemistry specialist, I have developed notions of this depth but you articulate your experience of the integrity of being so beautifully. I salute you. Thank you for your generosity of sharing. I am a Hindu and a yoga teacher and can reinforce your understanding of being. I’d surely love to have association with you and I know that it would become possible if the frequencies resonate.
Consciousness has a great many shells or levels just as that of two mirrors set up opposite to the other . The mirrors reflect in one another infinitely to a point of infinite convergence. All the layers are emanations that mirror other levels just as we can reflect upon our levels and layers of our quality of thought.
Love his work. It is very in line with ACIM. The only thing I disagree with is his interpretation of quantum information as having an inner and an outer component. If this characteristic was true, then we make "separation" real. There is nothing out there. Therefore, we cannot be "inner" or "outer" from anything. It's all a shared experience. This interpretation is True, and it also fits with his theory in every other way. Fascinating read, thank you!
I like how he said consciensciousness can't be described in terms of matter, so it must be fundamental, and that maybe it existed first and matter came later. Opens up your brain to new ideas !
@@lepidoptera9337 What you just said is that you are a materialist. What I said was that matter is not fundamental. These are opposing biews. While you are certainly okay to express your views, they do not negate or even affect mine, because of hte fundamental issues which you might not be able to grasp without removing some of your basic assumptions. I will not argue the point. I mean, let;'s get real. Philosophy is not sicence, and science is based on basic assumptions that cannot be proven or disproven.
@@lepidoptera9337 science has never been able to locate consciousness in a brain, but if you stick to your experience, a brain is absolutely appearing in consciousness. Stop denying your experience for a measurement of experience. This is what created the hard problem of consciousness in science, because you have a “belie”f that you can pull the territory out of the map which is impossible, but science is too stubborn and to fixated on matter to want to solve this problem ..and so here we are.. illogical leaps in logic to prove the false matter only model. If you stick to Occam’s razor, the consciousness only model, solves all problems and makes the least amount of assumptions.
Having learned to program microcontrollers with a Z-80 controller, 35 years ago at university and having seen the creator of the Z-80 to talk about these topics is exciting. Do you have this great video in Spanish? I know many people who don't speak English with whom I would like to share it.
What a great thing to find scientists, of name and stature especially, to accept fundamental constructs of life and being such as consciousness. He even mentioned love and joy and the continuation of spiritual life and proposes a theory bridging the two.
It is interesting to see convergent intellectual and spiritual paths of different people toward the same ontology - Rupert Spira, Buddhist sage, Bernardo Kastrup, Federico Faggin, and many others.
Truth is One and pieces of It can be found everywhere in this world, but mixed with misunderstandings. And a half-truth is more deceptive than a whole lie... Truth can indeed only be truly known through experience. Artificial intelligence can never become conscious, though fools and liars (e.g. Elon Musk) will say otherwise to suit their agendas. And the only thing Mr. Faggin is missing is the best-kept secret in this entire world: the reason WHY we are experiencing it; The Meaning of Life. I've published this information in various forms. Seek and ye shall find. Elijah has returned in these "end times," as prophesied, and testifies. And by the way, this will be the end of the world as we know it, and not the end of the world. The pain of the birthing of a New Age will be great, but the reward will be even greater: the return to Awareness; the reversing of The Fall into ignorance that put us here in the first place.
I am an artist and wanted to reach Mr. Faggin to work with him, to prove we need human consciousness to create real art. What computers are creating should be classified as computer art. I sent a Facebook message to his Foundation page but never heard anything back. How can I reach this amazing man and support his work too? I hope he reads this 🙏❤️
A couple of years ago I thought AI would take over but now I have changed my mind. People should be able to stay on top of the game and survive. What will people do when every machine is thousands of times smarter than us? We will become like zombies asking machines for everything.
Art made by something without a heart, a soul or consciousness is heartless, soulless and unconscious. It might be interesting visually but it doesn't have a lived experience. To create from a place of knowing is different to creating from a place of predicting.
Want the most wonderful basis for meaningful art? It only takes 5 minutes to read The Book of GOD online at no cost... Truth can indeed only be truly known through experience.

The materialist paradigm is crumbling at long last. To reveal a much more expansive, inclusive and loving reality. Holographic/quantum vs. atomic/Newtonian.
Excellent information. At 16:21 when he’s asked about the contradictory nature of classical vs quantum, this duality is represented in the dual modalities of each. Rain hemisphere as described by Dr Iain McGilchrist.
World consciousness is. rising so we can enter the mini-Sattyug that is coming 2024 to 2025. That was Maharishi's promise. Krishna said it would come in our lifetime. Maharishi was more specific. He said it comes 2024 to 2025 and that it is preceded by the collapse of all manmade governments, which we see already, and then a brief period of "mass destruction".
Truly marvellous and inspirational - many thanks! Excellent interview questions - but almost humorous to have robotic interviewer voice given much of the content addressed! Deliberate?
Federico has published books where he explains in far greater detail about his personal experiences and his theories of consciousness than the interview format would permit.
Such a warm hearted great mind, so sad governments have hidden for 80 years some important facts from gentlemen like this. There is hyper advanced consciousness in our skies and interacting with humans has been doing so for eons. There in our skies more now than ever before for reasons yet unknown to nonexperincer humans.
Loved all that you shared and I’d like to expand on some things. I’ll pick time today and speak solely from experience. Time is not linear. Time is a single moment of now in billions upon billions of layers of dimensions. What we think, say and do now impacts our reality including our “past”. My experiences include dimensional shifts, portals/wormholes and life beyond the physical. 🌟
It was incridibly helpful for my concious life. Thank you for tons of informations on this hard topic. Lot of us struggle mentally with complexities of electronic times.
If I were putting together a university curriculum for a neuroscience degree, I would require each student to attend the Monroe Institute, as well as watch a minimum of 100 NDE videos. Currently, students are getting only half the picture regarding the brain and consciousness.
Gent. Sig. Faggin, concordo pienamente col suo punto di vista. Ero arrivata alle stesse conclusioni dopo aver letto il libro di Tom Campbell, un suo collega, dal titolo "my big toe" che penso lei conosca. Ormai molti scienziati stanno arrivando a comprendere che "consciousness is essential" e che purtroppo il materialismo come fino ad ora interpretato sta perdendo di significato. Grazie per il suo contributo
I had a similar type experience, being a physical sensation being many times as strong ( Federico discribes it as 10-50,000 times as strong) than any other type of physical sensation. I think that we could call it an unmeasurably strong sensation. My experience was in a religious environmental, being a young Mormon missionary in South America. I attempt to describe it in a numerical comparison, but being difficult to put a numerical value on the strength of this force, I describe it in what I felt. I felt like the inside of my body was literally on fire 🔥. I remember thinking that I was probably not going to survive this burning, but yet at the same time it was a very comforting sensation. I was at ease in spite of its overwhelming power. The date was March 15, 1976. Yes, the Ides of March.
The very reason that you came to this very realization and to express it with such clarity is because you are conscious of consciousness in yourself that makes this happens
@@FromPlanetZX not Buddhist it is a truth you can experience for yourself. Your sense consciousness only comes alive when we they come into contact with sense objects. Otherwise they are dormant.
this kind of 7:23 experience is not something that you can read in a book and understand it can 7:28 only be understood if you have this experience if you live it and it's exactly what consciousness does 7:35 consciousness is the capacity to know by living what we know 7:41 by becoming what we know so consciousness is is a magical property 7:46 that cannot be defined with anything simpler than itself and that's why must be fundamental it cannot 7:53 be derivative from matter that has none of these properties 7:58 you know it was so clear after that experience the concept must be fundamental but i wasn't ready to say 8:05 that because i'm a scientist and i you know i was brought up with the idea that consciousness is an epic phenomenon of 8:12 the brain so it's not even real in the sense that it has no cause of power 8:18 and so i i decided to study that study consciousness by myself but with help of
"consciousness is is a magical property that cannot be defined with anything simpler than itself and that's why must be fundamental it cannot be derivative from matter that has none of these properties." That's adding even more insght into exactly what Planck said a long long time ago.
I went on a few days with a well known theoretical physicist. Not a love match but we talked for hours. He held to religious beliefs which surprised me. He explained to me that most of his theoretical physicist friends held the belief that there was "something else." He was not sure what that was, but he though the ancient religious teaching held great wisdom and he was comforted to conform to the traditions of his religion. He wanted to show that he understood he did not know all the secrets of the universe and there was something greater then himself although he did not know what that was.
Fantastic. Now we can prove that We are a very special Entity that has the inherent capability and authority to acknowledge Love as an unified awareness that bonds us, forever. Are We wonderful or not?
when we speak of knowing things, it usually results from 'taking them apart'. that's why we have so much difficulty understanding 'holistically'. dichotomies such as continuous/separate, wave/particle, determinism/indeterminism seem to meet each other when delta x goes to zero. (the interviewer's voice contrasts with federico's voice!)
He is not only a genius as scientist,he is a precious philosophical mind also.

Insanity can be defined as doing the same things as many dictators in history and expecting different results… but with AI censorship it’s so far beyond what any dictators ever dreamed of doing it’s staggering. We may be seeing the death of the future in that despotic impulse to control leaking into and being amplified by AI. I’m extremely intelligent and creative and about 75% of my diverse writing and art ideas are constantly being rejected. Its truly ignorant prejudice burning books. Not to mention humiliating. If you argue with them, like a codependent trying to explain themselves to a narcissist, they just dig in their heels and gaslight you-if you can even reach them. Try reaching open AI… good luck with that. Open is the EXACT OPPOSITE of what they are. It may be too late already. I was trying to finish up a book about how to prevent these kinds of issues but the control-freak precedent has been set…
I had realised recently through my own contemplating that the world is chaotic, random and seemingly pointless etc. Yet at the same time full of depth, mystery, love and incredible stories of good vs evil and chaos vs order.
How he explained classical mechanics as the deterministic world void of meaning vs the inner world of consciousness being full of meaning and love now ties everything together. 💡
I had a similar experience long ago. Started buying popularized books on physics. I have been calling episodes Cosmic Intelligence. For me, it is true.
this guy is amazing. love is what it all boils down to.
That is what people who have near death experiencers say. There are atheists who experience unconditional love during an NDE and they say they changed their selfish ways and began to see other people's well being as important. If you think about this really we project our consciousness constantly like when we dream, or plan, or watch a movie or read a book. We may be taking this ride on purpose.
Wonderful. Listening to Federico is an spiritual experience . Thanks for posy. It made my day🎉🎉🎉
The light of pure conscious awareness shines all appearances into being 👁️
This man is fantastic! I love his laugh every time he drops the mic on a question
I've been listening to podcasts about consciousness and it being more fundamental than space and time and this by far is the most captivating one 👍🏻
This gentlemen is incredible.
Federico has it exactly right, along with Max Planck, Consciousness is a fundamental, congenital precursor to experience. Nothing else CAN experience anything. Can't make a scientific measurement without Consciousness, no matter how far removed from the Observer -- You
" We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent Mind. This Mind is the matrix of all matter." It seems like we may have chosen to watch this program or read this book or daydream this life. There is nothin like trying to wrap your head around all that. Aliens are for real too and they can manipulate consciousness. Aliens probably understood all of this super natural phenomena a long time ago. Crazy place this universe, huh?
Never saw a physicist understand a spiritual realm that well before.
Science is catching up with God.
You then should also try physicist Tom cambell
yea, refreshing it is
Smart people can have diverse interests too. Certain scientists and inventors approached the idea of conciousness in various ways during their lifetime for that reason.
You should get out more often. 😂
Fascinating! Thank you for this. It's time for a hypothesis/theory that allows for what can be measured and what can not be measured. These things arise mutually but most scientists believe that if it can not be measured it is not real or not important, which is madness, really.
Great to hear this from the creator of modern microchips. Great to hear him describe that computers will never achieve meta-consciousness. Very soon many ‘AGI’ researchers will find this out, when they again and again fail with their silly promises and expectations of creating ‘intelligent machines’. I assume that we will soon see breathtaking paradigm changes in physics, more fundamental than when we had to leave the geocentric worldview behind centuries ago. Exciting.
Instead someday people might use biology to create a superior biological being with higher consciousness.
Beautiful conversation! I'd love to hear a conversation between Bernardo and Federico wherein they discuss if Bernardo's dissociation hypothesis fits Federico's basic model. We know that Bernardo considers atomic behavior to be the pixels on the screen of dissociated alters. It sounds as if Federico might grant more of an ontological reality to atoms (not as objects obviously).
Would love to hear them discuss this and anything that catches their fancy.
Consciousness is made of a distributed quantum neural network that runs across the many-worlds versions of our own brains and possibilities where in some versions of reality they reassociate with trees, birds, other people, with some versions where we all are a Borg-like unified being. Then, all the past, and all the future, and all space, keep updating and modifying different locations. Never ending process of eternal REVISION.
@@tarukofusuki And so are you biased by "cultural scientific renown".
It's so obvious that scientific consensus is something cultural that it's almost hilarant. How can we possibly have a consensus about something which is completely unknown like "consciousness" or "fundamental reality"? It's just ridiculous!
True scientists that neglect consciousness doesn't neglect it because they think it is an epiphenomena (even if they think it is), they neglect it because they think it is just irrelevant. They actually know no shit about what the hell is going on at this level of reality, and I'm pretty sure that neglecting consciousness as something irrelevant is a huge mistake and the most important obstruction at this time for further discovering.
We need those new questions that the paradigm shift can bring to us if we want to keep moving forward and escape from this stagnation that surrounds today's physics.
@@tarukofusuki Yeah, football and gaming is totally incompatible with philosophy... What was I thinking about?
You know nothing about my philosophical background, and if you think you do because of the name of my channel then you're so confirmly lost in your bias that you can't even understand why are you biased.
Btw, Faggin isn't describing consciousness by quantum mechanics, he is describing quantum mechanics by consciousness. It's a completely different approach and probably the right one if we want to keep moving forward in this kind of research.
The "New Age" tag is just so, a tag. What it actually references is a completely disorganized movement that has borrowed, merged and mistaken concepts from all over the world and history, at the same time that a lot of "gurus" have used the power of those concepts to make profit. But denying the inner logic of the original concepts and the phenomena just because of that is generalizing to a silly extreme that denies all the underlying concepts and phenomena that exist much before the "new age" was born.
@@tarukofusuki "He wrote about extracorporeal experiences and other stupid anecdotes"
Yeah, that shit obviously dismisses everything else, if you haven't had any extracorporeal experience, why should anybody else? Obviously there's something wrong with people who have experiences of phenomena that can't relate to yours because your life is almost as long as the time humanity has been around this world, lol
I agree in that any assertion by itself isn't proof of anything, but dismissing and neglecting them is even worse. I don't think this man is lying, and his experiences must relate to something real, whatever it is.
@@briancannard7335love this
I am listening to this interview from Africa.
The subject of the video-Federico Faggin (Italian pronunciation: [fedeˈriːko fadˈdʒin], Venetian: [faˈdʒiŋ]; born 1 December 1941) is an Italian physicist, engineer, inventor and entrepreneur. He is best known for designing the first commercial microprocessor, the Intel 4004. He led the 4004 (MCS-4) project and the design group during the first five years of Intel's microprocessor effort. Faggin also created, while working at Fairchild Semiconductor in 1968, the self-aligned MOS (metal-oxide-semiconductor) silicon-gate technology (SGT), which made possible MOS semiconductor memory chips, CCD image sensors, and the microprocessor.
Thank you
How is this not being talked about everywhere amongst academics and public?
You know why!?
WOW! That's an unexpected gift 🎁
Thank you!
Another fabulous interview, thank you Mr Faggin
Wonderful. This echoes the concept of Advaita (non-dual) Vedanta.
I am from India . Was scrolling down the comments to look for this one. Oure ancestors also had drawn similar inference. Wish you all the best.
I wonder if he is familiar with Vedanta.
And Buddhism
He just copied it from Advaita Vedanta 😅
@@alaineb2643yes Dzogchen Buddhism more specifically.
Absolutely beautiful thinking and understanding..
It was like a miracle listening to the brilliant explanations of the most complicated things like consciousness and our existence created by it.
Somehow the experience ,brought by my consciousness , knew what Dr. Faggin was explaining.
Wonderful! 🙏
Consciousness hasn't changed its mind one bit about this gentleman!
Fabulous expose of obejective and subjective realities, thank you so much!
Wow, the logic of the Duality of the Unity and vice versa! This is the best effort I have come across to explain the Unitative Experience I have come across so far. Thank you Mr Faggin and Essentia Foundation for getting this out to us. They come to me at the right time - ha ha. So beautiful. It is not a coincidence that it happened through water. I had one before I knew what it could be in my 21st year. Even though I had no context for what I had experienced it changed my life going forward. I knew it was 'real' and I never forgot where I stood with a tree providing the experience, and I never forgot exactly how it felt. I had a second one with a mountain a few months later. The world is LOVE - it is as simple and as extraordinary as that. My experience was not the disintegration of self (although it may lie in the definition). It was the absence of ego and the melting away of my body. My response while in the experience was from what I would call my 'self' which is the awareness of the predominance of love above all, the love I felt for the tree and the realisation that love was coming from the tree to me. And then the same repeated with the mountain.
I'm thrilled to discover Federico Faggin. I have already looked on Amazon to see his books listed. I will put his book next to Donald Hoffman's and Bernardo's. It's gratifying to see that these modern day thinkers are discovering what ancient spiritual thinkers discovered. I can't help mentioning spiritual thinker, Mary Baker Eddy, who stated in the late 1880's that "All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation..."
Listen to soundarya lahari, om namah shivah
The Divine I Am experience. I had it too. Divine because it is extraordinary, pervasive, without boundary.
Nice break from headlines saying consciousness is an illusion (to whom exactly). Nobody ever gets as far as the binding problem, much less taking the next step into on asking what is experiencing.
Happiness is an emotiinal state...you feel happy ...you can't think yourself happy.....this man sees what's real
You can trigger the emotional state through thinking
Thinking will give you the recepie but it wont bake the cake
Amazing interview and his book is amazing too
Which book are you referring to? 'Silicon'?
@@siriusfun yes :)
LOVED the book!!!! ❤️🔥🙏🏻
He is an example of it is the journey we must enjoy and not the destination. I think we are meant to build things or tear down. It is the day to day right here and now that should make u happy. If happy even is🌎☀️💙
Perhaps we come here to this lower density in order to be challenged and to help this planet rise in consciousness and rediscover the love and consciousness that we are .
Blessings to you, Sir, for the courage and insights that you share. This is truly deeply spiritual. I teach mindfulness for wellbeing and am trying to spread this awareness. As a Physics and Chemistry specialist, I have developed notions of this depth but you articulate your experience of the integrity of being so beautifully. I salute you. Thank you for your generosity of sharing. I am a Hindu and a yoga teacher and can reinforce your understanding of being. I’d surely love to have association with you and I know that it would become possible if the frequencies resonate.
nice finally! Federico Faggin interview
Sending positive vibes and lots of love from Australia!
Well we thank you Frederico for your responses . Very very interesting. I will listen again, and read your books.
Consciousness has a great many shells or levels just as that of two mirrors set up opposite to the other . The mirrors reflect in one another infinitely to a point of infinite convergence. All the layers are emanations that mirror other levels just as we can reflect upon our levels and layers of our quality of thought.
Love his work. It is very in line with ACIM. The only thing I disagree with is his interpretation of quantum information as having an inner and an outer component. If this characteristic was true, then we make "separation" real. There is nothing out there. Therefore, we cannot be "inner" or "outer" from anything. It's all a shared experience. This interpretation is True, and it also fits with his theory in every other way. Fascinating read, thank you!
I like how he said consciensciousness can't be described in terms of matter, so it must be fundamental, and that maybe it existed first and matter came later. Opens up your brain to new ideas !
@@lepidoptera9337 What you just said is that you are a materialist. What I said was that matter is not fundamental. These are opposing biews. While you are certainly okay to express your views, they do not negate or even affect mine, because of hte fundamental issues which you might not be able to grasp without removing some of your basic assumptions. I will not argue the point. I mean, let;'s get real. Philosophy is not sicence, and science is based on basic assumptions that cannot be proven or disproven.
@@lepidoptera9337 science has never been able to locate consciousness in a brain, but if you stick to your experience, a brain is absolutely appearing in consciousness. Stop denying your experience for a measurement of experience. This is what created the hard problem of consciousness in science, because you have a “belie”f that you can pull the territory out of the map which is impossible, but science is too stubborn and to fixated on matter to want to solve this problem ..and so here we are.. illogical leaps in logic to prove the false matter only model. If you stick to Occam’s razor, the consciousness only model, solves all problems and makes the least amount of assumptions.
Best explanation ❤
Having learned to program microcontrollers with a Z-80 controller, 35 years ago at university and having seen the creator of the Z-80 to talk about these topics is exciting. Do you have this great video in Spanish? I know many people who don't speak English with whom I would like to share it.
This is stunningly stunning!
What a great thing to find scientists, of name and stature especially, to accept fundamental constructs of life and being such as consciousness. He even mentioned love and joy and the continuation of spiritual life and proposes a theory bridging the two.
A delight to listen to.
You might want to interview Dr Mauro Zappaterra.
That was the most satisfying explanation I’ve heard of consciousness.
It is interesting to see convergent intellectual and spiritual paths of different people toward the same ontology - Rupert Spira, Buddhist sage, Bernardo Kastrup, Federico Faggin, and many others.

Truth is One and pieces of It can be found everywhere in this world, but mixed with misunderstandings. And a half-truth is more deceptive than a whole lie...
Truth can indeed only be truly known through experience. Artificial intelligence can never become conscious, though fools and liars (e.g. Elon Musk) will say otherwise to suit their agendas. And the only thing Mr. Faggin is missing is the best-kept secret in this entire world: the reason WHY we are experiencing it; The Meaning of Life. I've published this information in various forms. Seek and ye shall find.
Elijah has returned in these "end times," as prophesied, and testifies. And by the way, this will be the end of the world as we know it, and not the end of the world. The pain of the birthing of a New Age will be great, but the reward will be even greater: the return to Awareness; the reversing of The Fall into ignorance that put us here in the first place.
pure love thx for sharing this is great
Thank you Dr Faggin
I am an artist and wanted to reach Mr. Faggin to work with him, to prove we need human consciousness to create real art. What computers are creating should be classified as computer art. I sent a Facebook message to his Foundation page but never heard anything back. How can I reach this amazing man and support his work too? I hope he reads this 🙏❤️
All AI generated art looks the same to me. Its all the same style and very similar, I can pick it out in a heartbeat. Still cool though.
A couple of years ago I thought AI would take over but now I have changed my mind. People should be able to stay on top of the game and survive. What will people do when every machine is thousands of times smarter than us? We will become like zombies asking machines for everything.
Art made by something without a heart, a soul or consciousness is heartless, soulless and unconscious. It might be interesting visually but it doesn't have a lived experience. To create from a place of knowing is different to creating from a place of predicting.
Want the most wonderful basis for meaningful art? It only takes 5 minutes to read The Book of GOD online at no cost...

Re: art
The materialist paradigm is crumbling at long last. To reveal a much more expansive, inclusive and loving reality. Holographic/quantum vs. atomic/Newtonian.
Brilliantly said too good ! Agree 💯
Excellent.... thanks 🙏.
Excellent information. At 16:21 when he’s asked about the contradictory nature of classical vs quantum, this duality is represented in the dual modalities of each. Rain hemisphere as described by Dr Iain McGilchrist.
Thank you very much 🙏
fabulous interview. 🙌🙌🙌
Very glad to see that more and more people are realising the truth. Let's rejoice
World consciousness is. rising so we can enter the mini-Sattyug that is coming 2024 to 2025. That was Maharishi's promise. Krishna said it would come in our lifetime. Maharishi was more specific. He said it comes 2024 to 2025 and that it is preceded by the collapse of all manmade governments, which we see already, and then a brief period of "mass destruction".
Love this guy !
Omg your one of the few who can educate this orphan who found out Gaia is its mother & now Gaia has a son😊
Thanku❤
At last some one from academia is speaking sense this is fantastic thanks 🙏🏼
The similarities when he describes "reality " through matter are so close to how object oriented programming works in its top layer. It's mind blowing
The Unitive experience is just a beginning. Go deeper - go beyond, all words, all ideas, all concepts. Go into Non-Duality.
Truly marvellous and inspirational - many thanks!
Excellent interview questions - but almost humorous to have robotic interviewer voice given much of the content addressed! Deliberate?
I❤you.and all your explanations plus answers. You are a Generous.
super clear explanation !!!! I also had this kind of experience 🙃
I've been studying pre-sectarian Buddhism recently and it's incredible that the Buddha somehow figured this all out 2.5k years ago.
Would be nice to have the full transcript. Very brilliant person and I enjoy thinking and exploring his theories of consciousness.
Federico has published books where he explains in far greater detail about his personal experiences and his theories of consciousness than the interview format would permit.
Such a warm hearted great mind, so sad governments have hidden for 80 years some important facts from gentlemen like this. There is hyper advanced consciousness in our skies and interacting with humans has been doing so for eons. There in our skies more now than ever before for reasons yet unknown to nonexperincer humans.
Loved all that you shared and I’d like to expand on some things.
I’ll pick time today and speak solely from experience.
Time is not linear.
Time is a single moment of now in billions upon billions of layers of dimensions.
What we think, say and do now impacts our reality including our “past”.
My experiences include dimensional shifts, portals/wormholes and life beyond the physical.
🌟
That makes sense. Consciousness is the foundation of reality. 🎉🎉🎉
Me too just was around white house & in the depths of California forests & then the great canyons .. How beautiful nature is in America,
It was incridibly helpful for my concious life. Thank you for tons of informations on this hard topic. Lot of us struggle mentally with complexities of electronic times.
If I were putting together a university curriculum for a neuroscience degree, I would require each student to attend the Monroe Institute, as well as watch a minimum of 100 NDE videos. Currently, students are getting only half the picture regarding the brain and consciousness.
Gent. Sig. Faggin, concordo pienamente col suo punto di vista. Ero arrivata alle stesse conclusioni dopo aver letto il libro di Tom Campbell, un suo collega, dal titolo "my big toe" che penso lei conosca. Ormai molti scienziati stanno arrivando a comprendere che "consciousness is essential" e che purtroppo il materialismo come fino ad ora interpretato sta perdendo di significato. Grazie per il suo contributo
The right information I try to explain to others. 🙏🏼 I love the way het explained it. ❤️
I had a similar type experience, being a physical sensation being many times as strong ( Federico discribes it as 10-50,000 times as strong) than any other type of physical sensation. I think that we could call it an unmeasurably strong sensation. My experience was in a religious environmental, being a young Mormon missionary in South America. I attempt to describe it in a numerical comparison, but being difficult to put a numerical value on the strength of this force, I describe it in what I felt. I felt like the inside of my body was literally on fire 🔥. I remember thinking that I was probably not going to survive this burning, but yet at the same time it was a very comforting sensation. I was at ease in spite of its overwhelming power. The date was March 15, 1976. Yes, the Ides of March.
"A physicist is just an atom's way of looking at itself" -Niels Bohr
The very reason that you came to this very realization and to express it with such clarity is because you are conscious of consciousness in yourself that makes this happens
I think we's gonna enjoy this video.
Consciousness arises when certain conditions are met.
That's Buddhist approach.
@@FromPlanetZX not Buddhist it is a truth you can experience for yourself. Your sense consciousness only comes alive when we they come into contact with sense objects. Otherwise they are dormant.
this kind of
7:23
experience is not something that you can read in a book and understand it can
7:28
only be understood if you have this experience if you live it and it's exactly what consciousness does
7:35
consciousness is the capacity to know by living what we know
7:41
by becoming what we know so consciousness is is a magical property
7:46
that cannot be defined with anything simpler than itself and that's why must be fundamental it cannot
7:53
be derivative from matter that has none of these properties
7:58
you know it was so clear after that experience the concept must be fundamental but i wasn't ready to say
8:05
that because i'm a scientist and i you know i was brought up with the idea that consciousness is an epic phenomenon of
8:12
the brain so it's not even real in the sense that it has no cause of power
8:18
and so i i decided to study that study consciousness by myself but with help of
"consciousness is is a magical property that cannot be defined with anything simpler than itself and that's why must be fundamental it cannot be derivative from matter that has none of these properties." That's adding even more insght into exactly what Planck said a long long time ago.
I kept waiting for the AI voice to say: "Well, I do know that I'm not conscious. I feel that you can trust that. Have a nice day."
I went on a few days with a well known theoretical physicist. Not a love match but we talked for hours. He held to religious beliefs which surprised me. He explained to me that most of his theoretical physicist friends held the belief that there was "something else." He was not sure what that was, but he though the ancient religious teaching held great wisdom and he was comforted to conform to the traditions of his religion. He wanted to show that he understood he did not know all the secrets of the universe and there was something greater then himself although he did not know what that was.
This guy must be proud of his last name. Represent!
Fantastic. Now we can prove that We are a very special Entity that has the inherent capability and authority to acknowledge Love as an unified awareness that bonds us, forever. Are We wonderful or not?
when we speak of knowing things, it usually results from 'taking them apart'. that's why we have so much difficulty understanding 'holistically'. dichotomies such as continuous/separate, wave/particle, determinism/indeterminism seem to meet each other when delta x goes to zero. (the interviewer's voice contrasts with federico's voice!)
