+Neven credited Oxford University physicist David Deutsch for proposing the theory that the successful development of quantum computing would, in effect, affirm the 'many worlds interpretation' of quantum mechanics and the existence of a multiverse. Starting in the 1970s, Deutsch had walked backwards into becoming a pioneer in the field of quantum computing, less out of interest in the technology itself, than his desire to test the multiverse theory.<ref>James Dargan, ''Multiverses, Turing Machines & Quantum Headaches: David Deutsch Explains It All''

 Astrophysicist turned science writer Ethan Siegel blasted Google over the claim, accusing them of 'conflating unrelated concepts, which Neven also ought to know.'

 Michael Pravica, a physics professor at the University of Nevada, has proposed an intriguing theory that human consciousness may stem from hyperdimensional realms. This concept suggests that our brains' consciousness might originate from dimensions beyond the familiar four (height, length, width, and time). Pravica's theory is influenced by the idea of hyperdimensionality, which posits the existence of more spatial dimensions than those we encounter daily. Pravica's proposal has sparked debate within the scientific community. While some see it as a groundbreaking perspective that could shed light on the mystery of consciousness, others, like Stephen Holler, an associate physics professor at Fordham University, caution against attributing gaps in our scientific understanding to supernatural cause. A new theory to explain human consciousness has suggested it comes from hidden dimensions and is not just brain activity. A physicist claimed that we plug in to these invisible planes of the universe when making art, practicing science, pondering philosophy or dreaming, and this could explain the phenomenon that has evaded scientific understanding for centuries. Michael Pravica, has based the wild idea on hyperdimensionality, the idea that the universe is made up of more dimensions than just the four we perceive: height, length width and time.<ref>Ellyn Lapointe, ''Scientist says human consciousness comes from another dimension''  Daily Mail 2024-09-19 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-13869507/scientist-human-consciousness-comes-dimension.html</ref>
