The simple questions cracking the hard problem of consciousness

#Color #qualia

🧠 Die #Illusion des #Selbst – Wie wir unser #Ich wahrnehmen

Haben wir wirklich ein stabiles, einheitliches „Selbst“? Oder ist unser #IchGefühl etwas, das unser #Gehirn aus praktischen Gründen konstruiert?

Laut #DanielDennett in unserem #Zoomposium ist das Selbst vielleicht weniger eine feste Einheit als vielmehr eine #Benutzerillusion.

🧠 The #illusion of the #self – How we perceive our #ego

Do we really have a stable, unified “self”? Or is our sense of self something that our #brain constructs for practical reasons?

According to #DanielDennett in our #Zoomposium, the self may be less of a fixed entity and more of a #userillusion.
