(July 28, 2014 at 3:21 am)Rhythm Wrote: Is there an issue with qualia seen as a consequence of the machine (if not a feature)? And what is the difference, if perception or experience is the function(rather than just an effect)..between perception or experience and data processing, specifically?

The difference is that data processessing doesn't require the existence of qualia. And since the physicalist model of behavior is physical input--> physical brain processing --> physical output, there's no plausible explanation of why the actual experience of qualia would have evolved, or by what mechanism it exists.
