"How Words Shape Consciousness: New Research Reveals the Deep Link Between Language and Awareness

Most, if not all, of the leading theories maintained that what entered our conscious awareness was perforce important. It concerned competing for work, say, or staying safe in a crisis.

But how do our theories of consciousness account for the banalities, the trivialities and all the seemingly arbitrary bits and bobs of mental flotsam that have no bearing on our survival, yet occupy so much of our waking thoughts?

A neuroscientific perspective on consciousness might tell us something about its neural correlates, but it is unlikely to tell us much, if anything, about the nature of thoughts or the textures of inner experience; it’s the wrong tool for that job. So what might we learn about consciousness if we gave more weight to the view from inside the experience – the phenomenological viewpoint?

I think I am not far from the truth if I state that the natural faculty of our brain to follow reason step-by-step is a natural development of our sense of causality which itself is based on how we perceive time as a flow.

Michael Pollan on the nature of conciousness. A fascinating thing to think about, with my conciousness. [gift link]

There's also a part near the end about needing a sort of conciousness hygiene in a time when our thoughts are so polluted and hijacked by one horrendous human being.

Anyway, I'm going to have to get this book.

Before I present my counter thought experiment, I just want to be upfront and declare that I don’t know if a digital machine can ever have mind or conciousness, but it seems to be me, it can have understanding.

Chinese Room, Version 2.0

In this version of the experiment:

This process can continue for as long as possible, say 2^10^100 times.

Somewhere during this process, the rule book of R has become large enough, that R, who didn’t understand Chinese at first, now understands Chinese and can always return the correct O for every I.

In fact, R can associate a probability number to each entry in his rule book, and randomly choose the most probable answer as O or responsd to each I with multiple correct (i.e. high probability) answers/interpretations as O.

In short, this is, analogous to reinforcement learning (RL).

Hence, digital machines, given enough time and capacity for memory, can eventually understand things. That’s, the semantic meaning of those things—those symbols.
