Revisiting the idea of thinking in code - Neuralink

 

I had posted that it's possible to think in code in a previous post.

Picture Neo in the Matrix. He was able to overcome the limitations of "reality" by realizing it was a game.  In the same way, you can free your mind of the limitations of what is currently produced into a purer form of code, that being thought itself.  Code is thought and thought is code - it's bi-directional.

Flows of thought in your head can be directed into verifiable reproductions in code.  Knowing this fact, it is then possible to connect thought patterns into larger systems at a much higher velocity and, with some degree of predictability, assess the likelihood of success.

As it turns out.  We are closer to this than I thought.  Now with Neuralink : Thought IS code.

One thing that might help in this transforming thought to code is gamification.  It's much easier to visualize a house with several rooms each containing furniture than its is to "visualize" a software system comprised of sub modules.  I think the path to converting thought into actual code will be through representing code with physical well known objects.  This will make it much easier to organize thoughts.
