Well it wouldn't be a model, and generally speaking that's why. And basically "it's different" is observed by the fact that it just isn't fizzling like neurons and there is more too.

Do you understand consciousness well enough to explain it such that no mystery remains?

No, but at this point there is still a knowledge of difference that could be described at many points of difference from cause and effect which is the important thing. Which is just scientifically knowing a difference in how the "AI" operate and "digital" apposed to what brains do.

And a heavier than air plane will never fly. After all, how can it flap the wings fast enough?

What knowledge, exactly, are you claiming, that lets you be so certain of this?

Because a simulation cannot be conscious, otherwise it becomes semantics.

So, there is no compelling reason that consciousness cannot exist within a digital system?

How can you objectively prove that you are consciousness? Spoilers you cant.

I can't, yet. I do not think that you have sufficient evidence to claim that it cannot be done, merely that we do not yet know a way to do so.

Do you believe that everything will eventually be explained ?

Ratheka_Stormbjorne t1_ivh6xuq wrote

Will? The prior on that is not sufficient to rise to the level that I would call belief.

Can? Yes.

That doesn't matter. Because for fact humans are, so it doesn't need "proving". Because that's just simply a fact.

It would be "settling" ethics at an incomplete place. As by the very nature of what it would mean by a computer simulating a consciousness and relative wording about computations or the math. But by very nature the differences are that itself. An identical system wouldn't be a computer. It should be obvious from cause and effect it scientifically begins from this fundamental difference.

I did not say "simulating". I said consciousness and exist.

Digital systems can only simulate.

Ratheka_Stormbjorne t1_ivh6vbf wrote

That is a claim. What is the evidence for that claim?

Glitched-Lies t1_ivhae93 wrote

That's what simulation means

You are the one who keeps insisting that everything on a digital system is a simulation.

I keep asking how do you know everything on a digital system is a simulation?

Can you please answer my question, instead of reiterating your claim?
