A lot of people seem to be dismissing this as "not a problem" or "not well defined". Can you expand on this so I can understand it?
It seems to me that there is a disconnect between:
- the standard scientific view of reality as consisting of fundamental particles and the laws relating them - and,
- the experience of being somebody, an experience that all of us have.
The standard view may well end up providing a good explanation of the experience (and some people seem optimistic that it will), but I don't understand how it can be dismissed. That's like saying that the EM spectrum of hydrogen cannot be explained by classical electrodynamics, and so is a non-problem.
