    Yeah but the proof was about consciousness, and a really bad one IMO.

    I mean we are probably not more advanced than computers, which would indicate that consciousness is needed to understand context which seems very shaky.

      I think it’s kind of strange.

      Between quantification and consciousness, we tend to dismiss consciousness because it can’t be quantified.

      Why don’t we dismiss quantification because it can’t explain consciousness?

        We can understand and poke on one but not the other I guess. I think so much more energy should be invested in understanding consciousness.
