>>11957142>there is no actual evidence that we really do thinkyes there is, the fact that you experience thinking in your own brain.
>Kasparov once claimed they Deep Blue computer could not beat him at chess as a ‘conscious’ being would only be able to beat him. He was wrong. He could not believe it and was convinced that Deep Blue must have a human behind it. He was wrong. Humans are demonstrably completely unable to tell the difference between music composed by people are music composed by computers/AI.This statement says nothing about the reality of consciousness. A computer beat a chess master / an AI produced music therefore consciousness doesn't exist ? What kind of though process is that ? It is false to say that consciousness is required to do any of these things, so the fact that a computer did these things does not disprove the existence of consciousness in any way.
I personally believe that it is possible for a simulated brain to subjectively experience consciousness, the same way people experience it. You just have to simulate the inner workings of the brain well enough.

>>11957159>I am just saying there is no reason to be sure that consciousness is not an illusionwhat would an illusory consciousness feel like subjectively ?
