If you want an example of genuinely valuable philosophy, I found "Kinds of Minds" by Daniel Dennett to be a compelling discussion of the origins of consciousness. It's not "fact" but it does provide interesting ways to think about the issue; ways that could drive experiment or further enquiry. So under a "pragmatic" theory of knowledge I would say that there is information there. But of course that's a philosophical stance that you should not feel compelled to debate me on ;)
