>>12885645I'm not saying they're exactly equivalent, I'm saying the neurons in our brains seem to react to stimuli and stimulate other neurons, which stimulate other neurons, etc etc and that ends up being thought. I'm using a computer more as an analogy.
I don't think computers really think about infinity, they get caught in infinite loops when the code they are defined by gets caught in an infinite loop.
It might just be that our brains are so sophisticated, having been finetuned over billions of years, that our brains don't include such bugs. Or maybe our brains do, but they happen on such a small scale and so infrequently they don't affect the overall thinking process very much at all. Whatever the cause, we really don't know and that's part of my point.
>>12885640I can't. Do you have qualia?
If so, there you go. If not, that's pretty incredible and you should notify some scientists to get studied.
