Never heard that and do not know what it means.
May 23, 2022 at 18:35
Says Nagel. But what else does the word "like" mean?
May 23, 2022 at 18:25
Okay, I was thinking of deliberately constructed machines.

What if an artificial system can be productive, isn't that real intelligence? Further: The distinction between natural and artificial is the problem.
May 23, 2022 at 18:07
Can you further explain this? What is "mimicking" intelligence mean.
May 23, 2022 at 18:02
Do we jail people for burping?
May 23, 2022 at 17:56
Well, I am much smarter than you, I guess.
May 23, 2022 at 17:50
Stay on topic.

If CNN reported that Trump insurrectionists seriously injured 200 cops, then yes.
May 23, 2022 at 17:41
FOX talking point. 200 cops seriously injured. Is this funny to you?
May 23, 2022 at 17:39
Attempted violent coup.

He's still not in prison.
May 23, 2022 at 17:32
Trump is a fascist.
May 23, 2022 at 17:28
What do you mean by Supernatural? I would think that means actions of God.
May 23, 2022 at 17:11
This is also Hegel's dialectic. In simple terms, all opposites are defined by a shared property.
May 23, 2022 at 17:07
My understanding of paraconsistent logic, from Graham Priest, is that things can contradict each other and still be true
May 23, 2022 at 16:52
Intelligence. I don't agree with Searle on the Chinese room.
May 23, 2022 at 16:42
We're done. Another time maybe.
May 23, 2022 at 15:32
What other way would it be real?
May 23, 2022 at 15:31
Then consciousness is not the same as intelligence. A system can be intelligent without be conscious.
May 23, 2022 at 15:01
You should start reading Hegel and quit pontificating.
May 23, 2022 at 14:50
Bashing Hegel as an idealist is the Analytic way to dismiss him without taking him seriously. The analytic school simply refuses to treat history as a...
May 23, 2022 at 14:44
I find the term "idealism" to be virtually meaningless.
May 23, 2022 at 14:40
Fine.
May 23, 2022 at 14:39
So, Hegel is not saying its materiality is meaningless.
May 23, 2022 at 14:38
That person is who I mean. Just saying, using him is not a good way to have a discussion with me.
May 23, 2022 at 14:31
Exactly. Look how often we conflate "objective" with "objectively true" and subjective with "my opinion/perspective."
May 23, 2022 at 14:24
Modern science invented the idea of subjectivity. Brief comment, but I can defend it.
May 23, 2022 at 14:19
My Hegelian dander is up. In his Philosophy of Art and Philosophy of Right, Hegel gives specific analyses of art and politics. He describes actual pai...

Then, every human being has a unique consciousness and the problem of a bat is just the problem of every single life form having unique consciousness
May 23, 2022 at 13:44
Just so you know, anyone who writes personal attacks is off my list.
May 23, 2022 at 13:37
Consciousness is always consciousness of real objects and events. Your reading of this passage is not accurate.
May 23, 2022 at 13:34
Yes, quite familiar with Pippin. I do not agree with his reading at all. He is just a Kantian giving a non-metaphysical interpretation of Hegel. So, t...
May 23, 2022 at 13:32
Hegel is not saying the materiality of the world is fake. Like Aristotle he is say the form of objects is what we conceive and therefore the intelligi...
May 23, 2022 at 13:27
Never mentioned realism. I think many bad readers of Hegel use the very categories of idealism/realism he is actually critical of.
May 23, 2022 at 13:14
I think Nagel puts a lot of weight on "like" and never really defines it. In the end, "what it is like" does not really mean anything.
May 23, 2022 at 04:04
There is a world. Not sure what you refer to as "overwhelmingly agree" about.
May 23, 2022 at 03:53
I think so.
May 23, 2022 at 03:47
Ok, thanks for clarifying.
May 23, 2022 at 02:09
What is this "game?"
May 23, 2022 at 02:03
Yes, agree with that.
May 23, 2022 at 01:53
Why mention my name? I said nothing about quale.
May 23, 2022 at 01:15
Yes, but not as a function of subjectivity.
May 23, 2022 at 00:43
When I read his article my reaction was, why am I supposed to know what it is like to be me? Familiarity is not knowledge.
May 23, 2022 at 00:41
The concept of the subject is a modern notion. Aristotle uses the word "subject" only in the context of grammar.
May 23, 2022 at 00:32
I've studied a lot of his work and see that nowhere. Please cite something by Hegel.
May 23, 2022 at 00:24
