Neuroscientist: Consciousness didn’t evolve. It creates evolution

Cognitive scientist Hoffman starts by trying to align his consciousness theory with standard evolution theory and then just chucks that and

"...the Big Bang itself is something that has to be understood from within a framework in which consciousness is fundamental. The standard view — and I understand that this is completely non-standard, what I’m saying...

" — the standard view is that the Big Bang happened 13.7 billion years ago. Eventually, consciousness kind of arose accidentally here on Earth and maybe other places and totally accidentally, that’s right? So my story is completely different. (6:54)

"Robert Lawrence Kuhn: So when I asked the question, how did consciousness emerge through an evolutionary process, your answer is it didn’t. (6:59)

"Donald Hoffman: That’s right. Consciousness didn’t emerge from a prior physical process of evolution. Consciousness is fundamental and so we have to rethink the whole history of the universe actually from this point of view, from The Big Bang up through evolution. We have to rethink it in terms of how to rewrite that story, consistent with all of our current science but understanding that it’s … consciousness is fundamental, not the physical universe (7:23)"

Psuedo intellectual pondering about Quantum tunneling fueled by coffee and cigarettes:

If it's such a rare occurrence, and if we leave an atom to just be observed over a very long period of time, does the occurrence of quantum tunneling become a consistent tick?

Or does it require interaction to degrade?

Does the interaction increase the frequency of occurrence of quantum tunneling and therefore increase the rate of degradation?

And would that mean that it could be a measure of an atoms actual degradation?

If this is able to be measured over time (akin to a clock ticking that can be sped up when it's energy is expended), in the case of it being left alone would this "quantum tick" be an indication of a point of discharge of energy?

As in, is this the wave/vibration that fuels the existence of electrons around the nucleus?

My brain is thinking about the theoretical fusion occurring in the Sun; if it can occur that big, it can probably also occur that small

Or am I talking out of my ass?
