Amethyst posted:if we build a machine that can classify any input stimulus one million times faster than we can, and react to it based on an evolving expert system several times larger and with much better efficacy than a human brain, can we really say it's not "true" intelligence just because it's not aware congratulations, you just discovered p-zombies

echinopsis posted:also studies on consciousness show for example that things happen before you're aware of them, implying that consciousness perhaps is a projection of what's already happening in your brain, meaning consciousness can't affect, it's only a display, and therefore perhaps unnecessary i don't believe that this implies that consciousness is unnecessary; i think the ability to construct a rationalization itself is an expression of consciousness. my operating assumption is that our conscious experience is a collection of both post-hoc rationalization and higher-level executive planning/desicions/thoughts. this implies that zoning out while doing something boring and repetitive is what it feels like to be conscious, but not really, like, conscious, you know
