Bi-Sapient Structures for Intelligent Control

Abstract

The control of autonomous systems requires provision of at least a synthetic form of intelligence or sapience. While descriptions of these are common, there is no current model which relates their definitions to the physical structure of an information-processing system. Sapience is a direct result of hierarchical structure. In this chapter we describe the self-consistent general model of a birational hierarchy, and associate data, information, understanding, sapience and wisdom with aspects of its constitution. In a birational hierarchy there are two sapiences, one associated with each hyperscalar correlation, and their interactions support the most general information-processing relationship – wisdom. One and the same general model applies both to material structure and information-processing structure: the brain is the unique example of material-structural and information-processingstructural correspondence.We attribute the stabilization of dynamic self-observation to anticipative stasis neglect, and propose that neuron mirroring provides a useful metaphor for all of the brain’s information-processing, including the bi-sapient interactionswhich generate auto-empathy.We conclude that hyperscalar bi-sapience is responsible for Metzinger’s ‘illusory self’, for Theory of Self, presence transfer, and Theory of Mind, and indicate how multiscalar access from within hyperscale provides a massive advantage in promoting survival.
