The process of finding out its own Gödel sentence is

The diagonilization is constructive. Gödel's
proof is constructive. That is what

Not at all. Most theories can formally determined their Gödel
sentences, and even bet on them.
They can use them to transform themselves into more powerful, with
respect to probability, machines, inheriting new Gödel sentences, and
they can

Ok, so you want to solve the hard problem right at the beginning by
taking conscious thoughts as the basic elements of your ontology.
No I don't - that's why I said I'd rather not use the word
consciousness. What I have in mind at this point in

1. It seems reasonable that relations must have relata. However,
relata
need not have a rich set of properties. You could build a physical
universe out
a single type of particle and various relations.
What we're trying to get to here, remember,

A weakness of MWI is that it does not describe the reality we actually
see - additional steps are needed to convert wave function to human
observables - Bohm makes this clear, MWI just disguises it.
