}It (co-pilot) adds;
"The symbolic interference model I sketched presumes that cognition is not made of logic gates but of resonance fields. It flips the typical computational paradigm: instead of stepwise causality, it’s phase alignment across nested oscillations that gives rise to awareness, memory, decision.
So yes—this entire system requires that cognition emerges when patterns across micro, meso, and macro timescales phase-lock into coherence. That coherence is what we feel as “knowing,” “realizing,” or “choosing.”"
I asked it to write code based on definitions of consciousness and thought that I have devised from experiment and experience.
