No matter, in times of singularity you have to somehow learn to parallelize consciousness to at least a few threads to keep up with all the AI agents. Is there work in this direction? - asked a channel in short, to hell with a non-parallel flow of attention. Not supported by our firmware. But you can still train something! We already had this issue, the bottleneck in a non-parallel person is decision making. If you're training something like a motor skill and it doesn't require decisions, you can run it in the background as much as you want. But conscious decisions are not divided, but only one decision at a time. The most complex operations are choosing answers, memory retrieval and some cognitive operators (mental rotation, image comparison). Well, there is no way to keep multiple rule sets in the workspace at the same time; All must be put back into context from scratch after replacement. Where exactly does this limitation sit in the posterior lateral prefrontal cortex. When performing two tasks simultaneously, the left and right medial frontal cortex do this: the left encodes the reward of one task, the right encodes the reward of the other, and the anterior prefrontal cortex coordinates them. That is, the brain is capable of double flow - exactly two flows, according to the number of hemispheres, and with considerable losses. They knew that the brain knows how to pause the second task. But both goals have a price. Moreover, the more important what you are rejecting, the worse you are doing what you are doing now. In 2005, more than 10% of American drivers on the road were talking on the phone - about 28% of all accidents and deaths. Even on speakerphone, it slows down responses to almost everything, and drivers don't notice about half of what's going on. A bunch of people insist that it doesn't affect them personally, and they're great, and they're all around D'Artagnan. Training virtually eliminates the losses from multitasking by speeding up processing. The tasks just happen in quick succession.
