Why is it like something to be ourselves and how do physical processes create our subjective experience? These questions get to the heart of the knotty problem of consciousness, and they provided the spark for the latest book from award-winning author and journalist Michael Pollan. In A World Appears, Pollan goes in search of answers about what we do and don’t know about consciousness, and why it has proven such an elusive phenomenon. He tells Ian Sample how thoughts and feelings shape our conscious experience, whether we can learn anything about human consciousness from AI, and why he thinks our minds need to be defended in today’s technology saturated world Order A World Appears: A Journey into Consciousness by Michael Pollan via the Guardian Bookshop Has a 25-year-old bet taken us a step closer to understanding consciousness?

In this article STAN-GB SCBFF Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Pakin Songmor | Moment | Getty Images Gold's sharp selloff may have pushed the metal firmly into bear market territory, but some market veterans are sticking to ambitious long-term forecasts. Bullion extended its slide Tuesday, with spot prices falling as much as 2% before trimming losses to trade down 1.5% at $4,335.97 an ounce. Futures dropped about 2% to $4,317.80, while silver also declined. The move leaves gold — down roughly 21% from its late-January peak of $5,594.82 — firmly in a bear market. For many strategists, the recent slump reflects short-term dislocations rather than any shift in gold's underlying fundamentals. Persistent geopolitical risks, strong central bank demand and the prospect of a weaker U.S. dollar continue to underpin a structural bull case for the metal. Gold is traditionally seen as a safe haven by investors during times of instability. "We are sticking with $10,000 by the end of the decade," Ed Yardeni, president of Yardeni Research told CNBC via email, even as he lowered his year-end forecast to $5,000 per ounce from $6,000 — which is still up around 15% from current levels. The latest leg lower came as investors unwound positions amid a stronger U.S. dollar and tentative signs of easing geopolitical tensions after U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday he had ordered a five-day pause on planned strikes against Iran's energy infrastructure. The U.S. dollar has been strengthening, which might have triggered profit-taking in gold, said market participants. Stock Chart Icon Stock chart icon Gold prices since the start of the year. The dollar index has strengthened around 3% since the start of the war on Feb. 28. Despite the near-term weakness, strategists broadly view the selloff as an opportunity rather than a turning point. Justin Lin, investment strategist at Global X ETFs, said his base case for gold remains $6,000 per ounce by year-end, describing the r...

Iran has not updated its official death toll figures for weeks, while human rights groups outside the country are struggling with chronic communication problems, meaning the number of people killed during the war remains largely unknown. The last time Iran’s health ministry gave a full update about casualties was on March 8, the ninth day of the conflict, when it said around 1,200 civilians had been killed in US and Israeli air strikes across the country. Overseas human rights groups have long been considered one of the most reliable sources of information about life inside the heavily censored Islamic Republic.
