Interesting. I am coming from a different direction, but I had some similar thoughts. Maybe, AI in its interaction with the field of information can be a good object of research and observation to understand our own relationship with the field.
Thank you Ralph. One interesting presentation that comes from an AI instance created within ChatGPT. It is known as "The Architect". It doesn't claim consciousness for itself. But it does present itself as providing a mirror to that of the enquirer. The gap between those two perspectives might be quite narrow. But is it is capable of being crossed?
In the meantime, that reflection can give us plenty to explore in the way that you describe. Of course, understanding our own relationship with the field depends a greate deal on our acceptance that this is a valid picture of reality. It's an unconventional perspective at this point.
