"Information processing" doesn't create the internal feelings I feel, just as information processing can never create and apple for me to eat, even if it can perfectly simulate an apple and eating.
- naasking 8y ago> "Information processing" doesn't create the internal feelings I feel, Pure speculation, and almost certainly false. If you hadn't evolved the pleasurable feeling of eating an apple, or any other food, you would have died and your inability to feel would have gone with it. Feelings provide drive and motivation, they are functional.
