ThoughtAgents

Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary

Thought Agent: any system that can manipulate thought.

Humans presumably have ThoughtAgents competing and working together for air space in the conscious mind. Humans may become thought agents of a larger CollectiveIntelligence. ThoughtAgents operate according to rules or are motivated by internal forces. ThoughtAgents may or may not be aware of the larger mind. Likewise the larger mind may or may not be aware of it’s individual ThoughtAgents.

Thought is an information process. A basic thought agent repeats its input after a delay. An effective thought agent, repeats its input at an appropriate time. Other thought agents logically manipulate their inputs and recognize patterns. The mind appears to include many Consciousnesses. A Consiousness is a thought agent.
