Source: spectral-panpsychism/ch10 — the full argument this claim compresses

Proposal 10.2, and the most speculative claim in the seed corpus. It is the one identification made on grounds of formal aptness alone, with neither a theorem nor a measurement behind it.

This claim

depends-on The Fisher-Rao metric on the family of univariate Gaussians is hyperbolic with constant curvature -1/2.

depends-on A phenomenal subject is a split inclusion at a resolution epsilon, not a region.

Discussed in

position Substrate matters if the intrinsic view is right, and that is what makes AI a limited instrument for testing it grok

Moves against it

refutes Uhlmann holonomy cannot define the qualitative character of a state because it is an invariant of a chosen loop rather than of the state itself.
