Yeah -- empirically EM theories of phenomenal experience are definitely not perfect. > Another thing I read recently that I found interesting is on platonic maths and complex algorithmic complexity in simple algorithms. > the hypothesis they're working on is there are many more algorithms that life discovered over the past view billion years at higher orders via random walk and chance. We just have to pick apart these biological structures and discover the behaviors and figure out how to use them. This is very interesting. I think there is a lot of valuable research that will come out of trying to figure out what classical computations brains, neural nets, etc. are instantiating. How you get from computations to phenomenal experience is still not something that I have a very clear understanding of.
