>Side question: how do we know if humans possess qualia?
Can you express an opinion? Can you form a judgement? Do you have preferences? Do you like certain foods or dislike others?
Then you possess qualia.

- dreamlessfate 4y agoMaking left turns...stopping at red lights...these are success/failure criteria. In contrast, having a favorite food, or an opinion on politics, or a preference on what should be considered the best movie from the 1990's, or what kind of music you want to blast on your stereo to listen to on your drive as you make your left turn...these are not success/failure criteria. Huge difference.
