Comment on consciousness.
Consciousness appears to be the result of neural activity, patterns of neural activity, whether the basis is digital or not is not known. But at least in digital terms we know that all finite patterns are parts of larger patterns, and those parts of larger patterns still. There exist infinite non-repeating digital patterns that are believed to contain all finite patterns of lesser extent, so at least with regards to a particular sequence of patterns, it is conceivable that it is part of an infinite sequence. The nature of the states preceding the present sequence and following it are unknown, but the likelihood that there exists preceding and subsequent sequences seems likely, I would say high.
