(July 6, 2025 at 1:47 pm)Disagreeable Wrote: They (scientists) aren't touching the hard problem though. That's not something that can be solved by science. How consciousness or subjective experience could emerge from non-consciousness isn't something science can answer.

I definitely agree with that for now. I suspect there is a whole new body of knowledge that is currently over our horizon. With that yet to be learned knowledge, the scientific method might then be applied. But it might be as far beyond us as modern physics is to a cave man.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
