 You have doubts about whether I am a person without empathy. I can sense your doubts. The truth is that you will never know the whole truth. We think we know others, but we are actually deeply mistaken. It’s like congratulating someone on their birthday, believing you are surprising them, but in reality, that person doesn’t even know when their birthday is, and no one remembers it; their birthday in their passport is fictional. Knowing someone is entirely an illusion. To perceive me as lacking empathy is a good sign. What matters is who we are when no human can distinguish what we truly are 
 I had and have no opinion on you, whether you are with or without empathy.  I was referring to the person acting in the video clip.  The person is acting a role in a story created in the mind or minds of others.  They don't have any empathy in that story, they may feel something similar, but that's different.

I agree, cannot capture entirely what is inside of another person mind.

Knowing what is real and what is not real and what real actual is, well that is entirely held within the mind of the beholder and what is in the mind is entirely unknowable.

The reality is that the human brain, at the Quantum level, observes the word and our internal feedback from it.  At the Quantum level the brain goes to record a measurement of the cluster of experiences. 

Just as with the Quantum Erasure, this creates nothing. A similar cluster of experience that overlaps, will enhance that nothingness.  

This is similar to a black and white photographic negative.  Nothing (black the absence of light information) is white and white (full information  from all sources of light at the highest intensity) is black being nothing.

Whereas, a negative is flat 2D unchanging, the human brain is a 3D dynamic Quantum Erasure where memory is nothing and experiences create more nothingness.  

Consciousness, as such, is like a, large language model of a dynamic Quantum Erasure where only nothingness makes sense of every experience of the brains previous experiences, including those that got transferred within our DNA.

So it's the nothingness in our DNA that starts the process of experiencing nothingness.

When you consider that the Quantum level is mostly nothing and when you try and measure what is there, then it turns to nothing.  Then does the Universe have Memory and Consciousness and every event and human thought (as our brains are part of the Universe) change it's Memory and therefore it's Consciousness.

Nothing is real, as such and nothingness is what everyone and everything is made of and will experience.

 
 I’ve always dreamed of having a quantum conversation like this, and I’m glad I finally achieved my dream. You seem very knowledgeable and intelligent, and you’ve opened my quantum awareness. Now I see reality in a five-dimensional way with a quantum perspective. This leads me to reflect on quantum feelings and to explore the idea of quantum delusions. 
 Assuming that there is no sarcasm intertwined within your words, but I don't mind if there was, I like to laugh too.

If I can understand the human brain, Consciousness and the Immutable Truths of the Universe.  I will better be able to fully understand what human Empathy is fundamentally and how it's exchanged and how Bitcoin maybe the start of a Hive Mind (but without a man behind the curtain) dictating and  curating.

I've written a number of Title Notes.  This is one of them below.  I'm researching for future ones, so I can achieve a Unified Theory of all Human Constructs.

It might be worth a read, any feedback would be much appreciated.

 Ok 👍🏻 
 Very good my fren. I think the replacement of money with Bitcoin, or the purchase of goods with Bitcoin, will not restore any empathy among people for one another. 
 I agree it's hard to see why it would.  It's a very difficult thing to imagine.

This is what I did and it's hard to get to that mental state, well it was for me anyway.

I had to try and forget about Money, I also had to try and forget about numbers.  Then I had to imagine being engaged in barter 12,000 to 600 years BC.

It's very hard to explain, but the person selected to barter for the family, group, village, tribe etc had to exchange Pure Human Empathy or they would face violence and likely death.  An individual would not survive and a family would have to be very large to survive too.

In that situation, globally, the levels of Empathy sharing had to be perfect.  So there would be a balance between people, the environment, the local groups and spreading out more globally.

Violence would reign, because there was no Immutable Record of what Empathy was indeed shared. 

Key to this is also a lack of numeracy.  Even if you had back then a perfect form of Money, Humans did not have the numeracy to test whether it was fair.

It is important to recognise that people's numeracy didn't start to improve until into 1900's.  Well after Money had been introduced gradually since 600 years BC.  The parity between Money use and Numeracy of people didn't happen until circa 1950's.  Globally only now are we getting close to all people, not just having numeracy but also the ability to apply that numeracy to the real world.

So I believe that Empathy from Barter can now be recaptured by Bitcoin.

I also wrote this below, if you're interested.
