I trust my impression here is because I have information
Then I should update on epigenetics is not supported by evidence. And also about my chances to post nasty and arrogant when my medication change. Sorry about that.
However, I have a question about the large or small amount of bits.
Suppose Musk offers you a private island with a colony of hominids – the kind raw enough that they haven’t yet invented cooking with fire. Then he insists very hard that you introduce strong sexual selection, which led to one of those big monkeys inventing parading in front of the girls with a stick on fire.
Soon everyone is cooking, ensuring so many slack, physiology speaking, that chatting with the girls becomes the main driver of their evolution. So hard, in fact, that if you were a selfish gene living in some good girl, you’d be better off hurting your pussy than refusing to raise babies with the biggest brains possible.
At this point, I would consider that you may have replicated the basic recipe for creating the human mind. Of course, maybe this is just a fairy tale. Or something in between, like a real but less important component than, say, chimpanzee wars. But if you were able to measure the bit ratio in this scenario (number of bits from epigenetics versus number of bits from the genome), what do you think that would look like?
