The first topics discussed IS THERE A CENTRAL PROBLEM OF CONSCIOUSNESS? Minsky disagrees with Pinker... 21:00 What is going on in Joan's mind? 21:50 Minsky asserts that there is no hard problem of consciousness. 24:00 There are lots of hard problems. 26:00 the central problem is qualia 30:18 Why do the philosophers pick on colour? 32:00 Diagrams of inside Joan's mind 33:00 two mental activities 34:46 "the processes that we lump into consciousness involve lots of different activities" 39:00 IS THERE something "simple, indescribable and absolute" about certain qualities? 48:50 They want to... say that they can't imagine how anything that has an explanation... could feel pain or sorrow or anxiety... And I think this is a curious idea that is stuck in our culture, which is that: If something is hard to express, then it must be because it is so different from everything else that there's no way tl describe it. 51:46 What is pain? Pain is a reaction of some very smart parts of your mind, to the malfunctioning of other parts of your mind. 53:30 Why "The Emotion Machine" only mentions qualia once. 54:40 Causal Diversity idea. If there's a phenomenon going on (e.g. being in pain), how do you explain it?

It's easy to draw false impressions about a thing from someone elses interpretation of the thing. Most ideas are garbage. From that to me naturally follows that most ideas in even valid fields are garbage. That doesn't make the entire field garbage. I hate with a passion those philosophers who think they can just think about something and arrive at the truth. Someone, I can't remember who, has described philosophy as "thinking about thinking" and as this age of unreality has dawned, I can't think of anything more important than that.

The idea of free will has that important to law but to ignorant people. You can punish ppl committing crime, and the reason is to protect yourself. The real question isn't "Was this meditated?" but how likely this is to repeat. And after all, if all has a cause and we don't have a choice, then even without the idea of free will, that crime was un-avoidable. Anyone has a different idea?

@MarianneExJohnson

2 жыл бұрын

Punishment and lack of free will are perfectly consistent with each other. Consider: if you're arguing that a person is nothing but a product of their environment, well, the criminal justice system can become a part of that environment. In other words, if it's all about conditioning, just think of punishment as conditioning as well.

In the process of growing, the main concern is how to overcome egoism and dig up the roots of evil.

Well, this was kind of an informal treatise of the philosophy of mind relying on his popular book (the emotion machine). This was also done when he was 83, only a couple of years before he passed away. This was not a traditional class and he surely wasn't like what when he was younger but was very articulate and much to the point.
