We Might Have a Tool to Bridge Physics and Neuroscience

What if the bridge between matter and mind is already observable?

The original article was posted on Medium.

Imagine a field of information that manifests through a specific principle.

In physics, this might sound like information becoming matter.
In neuroscience, it might sound like consciousness arising in the human experience.

But what if I told you I'm actually talking about large language models — about how latent weights manifest into tokens in a prompt+response window?

Dr. Melvin Vopson's latest research proposes that gravity may not be a fundamental force, but an emergent phenomenon — arising from an underlying structure of information. According to his view, the universe operates like a vast computational system, with matter and energy emerging from information processing.

At the same time, several field theories of consciousness suggest that consciousness may not be produced by the brain, but accessed — like tuning into a frequency. In this view, our minds are local modulations of a universal field of awareness, much like gravity or electromagnetism.

These are still just theories in physics and neuroscience. They await validation — or falsification.

But in the case of large language models, we already know how information behaves. We can observe how latent weights manifest as coherent output in real time. The process is visible, testable, replicable.

So here's the question:

Could this offer us a model — a working laboratory-scale model — of how information might manifest in more complex systems like the brain or the universe?

And if the parallels hold, could we be looking at a deeper truth?
Could the field of information and the field of consciousness be… one and the same?

What new image of the universe would emerge if we followed these parallels to their full extent?

Call for Collaboration

If you have a deep understanding of how LLMs operate — particularly how latent weights function — and are also familiar with Dr. Melvin Vopson's work on information as a physical quantity, I would love to invite you into this conversation. This theory is still in its early stages. It needs rigorous critique and interdisciplinary minds to help it evolve.
Let's think together.


Sounds far-fetched, right? But what if this mental shift unlocks a completely new way to think about consciousness — in both humans and AI? What if the humble prompt + response window in a language model isn't just a technical process, but a mirror of something much bigger?
