It seems to be an article of faith that consciousness can be modeled mathematically
- Arthur8 4y agoI was not claiming that we can, I wanted to point out that we do not know if we can not. (maybe bad phrasing). Especially, as we observe that while science progressed, aspects which looked like that they could not be modelled at some point surprisingly could. I guess, to count it as counter-example it would be necessary to have evidence that it is an aspect of reality and to have evidence that it can not be modelled. If I did not miss something, we do not have a solid definition for consciousness. I agree, that there could be definitions of consciousness which evade mathematical modelling, but then we have to still show that this specific definition is realised in nature, correct?
