Unfortunately it was just a response to a prior assertion that a new type of physics was involved in consciousness. <BR/>Rick Grush And Patricia Smith Churchland take the time to address all the poor assumptions this line of thinking is based on. Here is a link to the html version:<BR/><BR/>http://mind.ucsd.edu/papers/penrose/penrosehtml/penrose-text.html<BR/><BR/>Secondly and perhaps more importantly even if quantum effects formed the basis of consciousness they would still represent a physical process that could be emulated. <BR/>And finally am I the only one who gets annoyed at the use of quantum effects to substitute for magic? If anyone uses the word quantum who is not a physicist I just assume whatever follows is complete bs.<BR/>nsUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14115701778503291078noreply@blogger.com
