🌱 The emergence of the #self#mind & #body united 🧠 🙋‍‍

What if our self arises from the living #organism and not from the separation of mind & body? 🤯

Thomas Fuchs shows how #embodiment, #consciousness & AI shape our sense of self.

The Complete Consciousness Iceberg | 2 Hours of Obscure Consciousness Theories Explained

YouTube

Imagine if you can, a jockstrap suddenly becoming conscious.

Then imagine said jockstrap hosting a YouTube channel.

Hold that thought in your mind.

Now, think of Steven Crowder.

Ok, that's all.

Contra reductionism:

If qualia are epiphenomenal (casually redundant) yet strongly emergent features, in the form of the qualitative features of conscious experience. e.g., the way that the salty sweetness of a pussy tastes to a particular subject on a given occasion, then some form of epistemological pluralism is in order.

Takeaway: What if AI has sensory phenomenology but lacks cognitive phenomenology?

Would they not be partial zombies?

And would partial zombies be entitled to all the same rights, protections, and privileges that human beings possess?

Perusing some of the literature on the study of the neurobiological events/processes/mechanisms that underlie consciousness, there are five words you will see repeated over and over, all of course taking place in the incredibly complex and sophisticated exchange of CODED INFORMATION between different parts of the brain nodes/regions/neuronal processor networks:

-Recurrent
-Loops
-Amplify
-Reverberatory
-Feedback

Let that sink in.

What is the brain's G-spot, and how do you find it?

What higher level neural properties are necessary and/or sufficient for generic consciousness of a given state?

Perusing some of the most prominent theories our there, I surmise It will have to involve recurrent information processing performed by a critical area/neural networks of the brain.

The question is: What area/network in humans is the sweet spot?

Or should i call it: The G-spot?
