Interesting way to define consciousness, the thing that goes away when
an a general anesthetic is applied. That can be quantified.

There's a lot of quantum nonsense about. This is just one example.

Well, explain how we can name one image out of maybe a million stored

I don't recall invoking religion here, or calling myself a believer. I
was asking about image storage and high-speed matching. It's even more
amazing when you consider all the optical distortions and viewing
angles and changes in illumination and motion effects in real life; we
don't match nice flat photos.

I don't know how it works. Let's find out. AI seems to be
getting there, and it requires no quantum theory. Just loads
of data and a lot of matrix math.

It would be pretty good packing, storing one bit of data per atom.

or maybe more than one.
Nice possibilities for quantum correlation, pattern matching, too.

It does all the time in RNA DNA
I was reading this stuff this morning:
Explaning DNA organisation in chromosomes:
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/09/240912135801.htm http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/sstr.202400203 there is still a lot to learn
design something, write some code, show us.
plenty of broken records around, not interesting.
