“Computers study these phenomena and hope to come up with artificial intelligence programs. However, at best, these merely imitate certain limited logic processes. The multi-faceted complex processes of the total mind are nonlinear and unable to be encompassed within the Newtonian paradigm to be suitable for computerization. Its primary content is best described as seemingly random or chaotic, with interspersed runs of logic, reason, or intelligence which just as quickly fade back into the noise of endless chatter again”.
“The periods of intelligent logic sequences seem to appear chaotically. Like reveries, fantasies, or daydreams, the mind just as randomly selects short periods of reality-focused, sequential processing. Intuitive leaps occur with no warning. Just as likely are periods of thought blocking, lapses, forgettings, and various fragments lost in an endless maze”.
“One thing is obvious —— the mind is totally unreliable. It cannot really be depended upon at all. It is not able to be consistent and its performance is sporadic as well as erratic. It will forget to take the keys to the office, forget telephone numbers and addresses, and be the source of frustration or annoyance. The mind is contaminated by emotions, feelings, prejudices, blind spots, denials, projections, paranoias, phobias, fears, regrets, guilts, worries, anxiety and the fearsome specters of poverty, old age, sickness, death, failure, rejection, loss, and disaster. In addition to all the foregoing, the mind has also been innocently and erroneously programmed by endless propaganda, political slogans, religious and social dogmas, and continual distortions of facts, not to mention falsifications, errors misjudgments and misinformation”.
“Even carefully orchestrated and disciplined traditional social institutions, such as the law and legal proceedings, trials and legal processes, are rife with error as starkly revealed by DNA testing. Even eyewitnesses are dead wrong over and over again. Above all else, the primary defect of the mind is not only its content, usually irrelevant or in error but it has no means of telling truth from falsehood. It is merely a game board”.
