I checked the "bidirectional search" over a year ago when it was first
trotted out as what my optimal path algorithm does.

But the actual algorithm applied to TSP has a backwards Traveler, who
is going backwards in time to meet himself along the optimal path. In
order to calculate that path the backwards Traveler has to communicate
with himself in the past--or you can say the Traveler moving forward
in time has to communicate with himself in the future.

It's not mystical. It's an integral part of the actual algorithm,
where the optimal path once calculated collapses to a single traveler
moving forward in time.

And you don't mention communication between the two travelers.

Now I've had over a year to ponder this thing and it scared me for a
long time, and still unsettles me, as it changes how you look at just
about everything we think we know as human beings.

But I have a simple analogy: to get, say, a college degree, when
you're a kid it can help to SEE yourself in the future getting that
degree. And from the perspective of gaining that accomplishment you
can make decisions like not to go out partying on the night before you
take your SAT's. Your imagined future self helps you make a decision
today.

What we see as conscious decision making may just be a rather basic
algorithm built into fundamental reality.

I have read up a lot on issues in this area. But I'm also considering
an idea I have which seems to answer a lot of questions. From a
purely intellectual perspective it's a fascinating algorithm to
consider, and the implications are world shaking if true.

Then in physics optimal paths are taken by information transmission
from the future to the past and vice versa. Continually. All the
time.

So to physics information transfer backwards and forwards in time
would be just a normal way of doing business.

It's how physics even knows which way forward in time is!

I've checked it before.

The scariest part of the optimal path algorithm I've merely hinted at
here. The scariest thing is that it may be why you think you're
conscious. Then human beings actually live in a different state
relative to time than they realize, slightly, out of phase, always
partly in the future in some sense. But to us, we're merely seeing
ourselves in some possible future.

What this algorithm says instead though is that we may be seeing
ourselves at times IN THE FUTURE, and it's not just your imagination,
but physics.

Not mysticism, but a weirder reality.

Sanboz - it is very hard to see what you wrote and what you are quoting.

Please quote properly. Turning off HTML may help.
