Belief will be required to achieve GeneralizedAI and Quantum Computing

Until it's understood that conciousness (not matter) is the fundamental unit of existence

The world will not achieve Generalized AI or Quantum Computing

Belief must play a central role in your processes if you want to win those games

The scientific method \ controlled studies are based upon disbelief, so it can't win any games that require "will of consciousness" (faith) as a starting point.

The alchemists understood this.
