Somehow this sentence is self-contradictory, but I can't quite lay my finger on the exact spot.
- andrewflnr 2mo agoThe contradiction is the notion of having hardware to support metaphysical dualism. It's an oxymoron. I think what they're actually trying to say is that the physical reality of LLMs doesn't leave any metaphysical space for dualism, which is required in their view for "mind". Ed: or maybe not, based on their other comments.
