Artificial Intelligence (Chat-GPT) and Buddhist Non-Self
What does artificial intelligence have to tell us about the central Buddhist teaching of non-self? We’ll delve into some of the recent advances in AI, focusing in particular on the chat programs ChatGPT (GPT-3 — recorded before the release of GPT-4) and LaMDA. Then we’ll turn to the Buddhist notion of non-self. Finally we’ll look at what one of these artificially intelligent programs had to say about the relationship between Buddhist non-self and AI.

Dr. Rupert Sheldrake – Morphogenetic Fields of Body and Mind – Quantum University
According to the hypothesis of formative causation, all self-organizing systems, including crystals, plants and animals contain an inherent memory, given by a process called morphic resonance from previous similar systems. All human beings draw upon a collective human memory, and in turn contribute to it.
Even individual memory depends on morphic resonance rather than on physical memory traces stored within the brain. This hypothesis is testable experimentally, and implies that the so-called laws of nature are more like habits.
Morphic resonance works through morphic fields, which organize the bodies of plants and animals through vibratory patterns, and underlie their abilities to regenerate and heal after damage. Morphic fields also coordinate the vibratory activities of the nervous system, and are closely connected to mental activity.
Minds are extended beyond brains through these fields, and the effects of attention and intention at a distance can be detected experimentally.

Mind Melds and Brain Beams: The Dawn of Brain-to-Brain Communication
Music students download the technique of their favorite pianist or singer directly into their brains. Medical students download the skills of a seasoned surgeon or diagnostician. And each one of us routinely uploads our thoughts and memories to the digital cloud. While these scenarios still lie in the future, rudimentary versions of the necessary brain-to-brain technology exist today. But the ability to directly influence another person’s brain raises serious questions about human rights and individual freedoms. This program will present the latest technology and explore how the ethical implications of enhanced thinking go to the heart of consciousness itself.
