Or that there is some physics that can’t be described by computation. It seems vanishingly unlikely, but there is no actual proof that everything physical is computable. And even if there was, it probably has nothing do do with minds.
- naasking 5y agoRight, not an escape hatch for human specialness though. We haven't seen anything that's uncomputable in physics yet either. Quantum computation "only" gives polynomial speedups so far.
