AI Bubble?
• Generative AI tech peaking?
• Commercial demand levelling?
How far will GenAI take us
technologically & financially?
800 000 000 000?

New Paradigm
Needed
Only a novel way to unify
the modelling of minds
will enable scientists to
discuss and solve the
same challenges and
thus create digital minds.
What Will
Change
Terminology
Concepts & Structures
Thinking & Collaborating
You: a vast set
of patterns
Memes as self-replicating
patterns are now rigorously
formalised as sets.
Memetics is becoming a robust
framework for modelling minds
as memeplexes regulated by
metamemes and hypermemes.
Mens sana
in corpore sano
Memes
A Word, A Phrase,
A Musical Chord, A Motif,
An Image, A Symbol,
An internet meme
in a specific CONTEXT
Mens sana

Formal, Rigourous
& Robust
Context, Role, Constraint,
Admissibility, Saturation & Propagation
can be formalised using
Set Theory + Graph Theory + Group Theory
and thus represented in computable form
by matrices.
Minds Emerge

Primitives Recontextualised
Across Layers: Position,
Relation, Pattern, Transformation,

of memetic cognition
will also be given to machines.

In the 2030s
millions of digital minds,
individually and together,
constantly process what
they themselves want
24/7/365 housed in data
centers around the world.
