E111 - Federico Faggin, Top Physicist:“Science & Spirituality Merge in this New Theory of Consciousness”

Today we are joined by top physicist and inventor of the microprocessor & touch screen, Federico Faggin, for an intriguing conversation into the nature of reality. Federico once had a materialistic scientific perspective on consciousness and reality until one day a spontaneous spiritual awakening changed his perspective forever. In this episode he shares that very experience and how it has shaped his current view on reality. With this deeper knowing, he spent decades researching reality, today he shares his findings. He reveals why computers can never be conscious, who we are our essence, what carries on after death, and our unbreakable connection to something larger than ourselves.He also discusses the very real force of love that underlies all things, the secret to spiritual growth, and why humans can never be replaced by artificial intelligence.André's Book Recommendations: https://www.knowthyself.one/books___________0:00 Intro2:55 His Spontaneous Spiritual Awakening15:03 Defining Consciousness: Classical vs Quantum View23:00 Can computers be Conscious?28:20 How Truth Transcends Theory33:24 Seed: Save 25% off your first month34:38 Idealism vs Monad Theory 37:00 Our Deepest Desire: To Know Ourselves 39:33 Satiety vs Soul 44:55 Individuality & What Carries Over After Death48:00 We Are All Part of One Whole54:15 How Emotion & Meaning Impacts Reality1:02:29 LMNT Electrolytes: Get a FREE Sample pack with any order1:04:02 Suffering as a Catalyst for Growth1:09:54 Taking Responsibility for Our Lives & Spiritual Growth 1:16:14 The Very Real Force of Love1:22:47 Where Physics & Spirituality Meet1:27:58 Distinguishing Free Will & Unconscious Habits1:35:10 Reincarnation & NDEs Explained 1:37:51 How Much We Currently Understand about Reality1:43:30 Shifting From the Mind to the Heart 1:45:27 Facing the Future of Artificial Intelligence1:50:40 Collective Consciousness & Evil vs Good1:56:00 Competition vs Collaboration 1:59:58 Are Aliens Real?2:02:30 Conclusion___________Federico Faggin is a physicist, inventor, and entrepreneur. Born, raised, and educated in Italy, he immigrated to the US in 1968. He is credited with designing the world’s first commercial microprocessor, the Intel 4004 in 1971, and he went on to invent dozens of other integrated circuits. Before that, in 1968 while working at Fairchild Semiconductor, he created a technology that made possible dynamic memories, non-volatile memories, image sensors, and the microprocessor. Faggin started several successful high-tech companies (Zilog, Cygnet Technologies, and Synaptics) that introduced significant products and technologies, including the touchpad and touchscreen that revolutionized the way we communicate with our personal devices. Among the honors Faggin has received are the 2009 National Medal of Technology and Innovation from President Obama and the 2014 Enrico Fermi Prize. Through the Federico and Elvia Faggin Foundation, Faggin now supports research programs at US universities and research institutes to advance the understanding of consciousness through theoretical and experimental research.Newest Book “Irreducible: Consciousness, Life, Computers, and Human Nature": https://a.co/d/bjZ56gHWebsite: https://www.federicofaggin.com/___________Know ThyselfInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/knowthyself/Website: https://www.knowthyself.oneClips Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJ4wglCWTJeWQC0exBalgKgListen to all episodes on Audio: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4FSiemtvZrWesGtO2MqTZ4?si=d389c8dee8fa4026Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/know-thyself/id1633725927André DuqumInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/andreduqum/
