关于意识问题能否解决，历来有两种意见：乐观派认为能解决，悲观派则认为不能解决。

但是近期世界上最聪明的物理学家Edward Witten也成了悲观派。

爱德华·威滕（Edward Witten），犹太裔美国物理学家、数学家，菲尔兹奖得主，普林斯顿高等研究院教授。他是弦理论和量子场论的顶尖专家，被美国《生活》周刊评为二次大战后第六位最有影响的人物，当代物理学中H指数最高的一位。有人认为他堪比爱因斯坦和牛顿。(Witten is regarded with awe by his fellow physicists, some of whom have compared him to Einstein and Newton. He is largely responsible for the popularity of string theory over the past several decades. String theory holds that all of nature's forces stem from infinitesimal particles wriggling in a hyperspace consisting of many extra dimensions.)
