Well, we could reframe the concept of compression and redefine it in terms of consciousness and intelligence. Assume panpsychism, all compressors have non-zero consciousness. And all compressed data is meant for transmission. Storage is transmission, spatiotemporally, to others and oneself. Then “compression” could be reworded as - perceptual information malleation for transfer with qualia utility minimization. Or something like that. IOW decompressors minimize conscious data perception via information re-representation/re-dimensionalization for transmission efficiency by utilizing intelligent exertion. Thus “compression” then is gone… and all of its associated stigma. ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/Tbdfca102d702de94-M50b5f0edba648a036a769023 Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
