Fascinating question indeed :)
> So which instantiations/states of the electromagnetic field experience feelings and desires?
Personally this is why I think that perhaps qualia is not an emergent phenomenon after all, and must come from outside the system. I.e. I suspect that philosophical zombies are possible
- benlivengood 6y agoI find it utterly strange that drugs, hallucinogens, concussions, alcohol, electromagnetic stimulation, etc. could all reliably affect consciousness but that a brain identical to mine might be a pzombie. Like; who or what could possibly be doing the detailed-enough tracking to be sure to give my brain consciousness (but not my sleeping brain) while my molecular twin gets none?
