      16:52 "I am in the process of a radical revision of my concept of mind, however, ..." Most people would have to stop giving interviews during that phase of their intellectual life.

    Speaking of reductionism.. "bad for the culture, bad for the mind"... he has been proven right (at least for the "culture" part)

    @PlaydoughPlato 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Interestingly enough I was reading Russell’s logical atomism when you posted his earlier talks on qualia (when he was the “brain in a vat” Putnam) prior to this perspective shit and he seemed right on point with that perspective. Now listening to this I’m currently reading Merleau Ponty and he seems to be right on point with that at almost the extreme other end of the spectrum. I don’t think it’s necessarily an either/or

    Does he misrepresent Searle here, does anybody know? It does strike me as odd that he doesn't believe in unconscious processing (like, surely he can't believe that?)

    • @AllenWalker-pk8oo
      @AllenWalker-pk8oo 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You can easily find your answer on specialized websites: "John Searle claims that unconscious mental states (1) have first-person "aspectual shape", but (2) that their ontology is purely third-person. He attempts to eliminate the obvious inconsistency by arguing that the aspectual shape of unconscious mental states consists in their ability to cause conscious first-person states."
