I've wondered for a while, if someone were able to develop a real live human brain without any physical body whatsoever, would a self aware person still develop or would it be just a clump of cells no more intelligent than a plant? This brain would at no point in its life have access to experience the outside world through the five senses. What do you think would be going on in such a brain?
