Essay one: Exploring Modes of Knowledge and Memory in Nature and AI

This essay written by me explores the evolving nature of artificial intelligence (AI) and its relationship to human consciousness, memory, and epistemology. It discusses how AI retains and processes information in ways that differ from human memory, emphasizing the mystery behind AI's "artificial memory" and its potential to challenge our understanding of knowledge. Drawing parallels with the plant, animal, and fungi realms, the essay invites readers to reconsider the traditional human-centric view of intelligence and explore new modes of information processing. Marcos proposes that future AI development could benefit from interacting and exchanging information with other AI systems and organic entities, offering a bold vision for the future of AI.
