    RE: Global Workspace versus ITT theory. What would be going on in the Global Workspace other than the Integration of Information? And for analysis any non-trivial problem, and one entailing significant fitness stakes to get correct, why wouldn't virtually the whole brain be involved? Moreover, I think it is vital to consider that the brain activity being measured in all these neural correlate studies is likely doing two separate but related things, (1) creating a constantly updated and relatively complete and objective NONconscious model of reality, which by definition generates no easily accessible phenomenology, and (2) creating and much more circumscribed and far more subjective conscious model of reality, which can be presented to social partners - one that is designed primarily for social navigation purposes. The construction of the conscious model would be informed deeply by the nonconscious model and would also be constantly updated mainly to maximize its social efficacy. Note if this is correct, a lot of brain activity devoted to generation of the nonconscious model will not correlate with conscious experience at all, especially over short time frames. Note that these two models may (are expected to) contain enormously contradictory representations of many aspects of reality, because the nonconscious model is trying to build a correct model (limited in scope, of course, by what in the real world is relevant, ultimately, to generating maximum expected lifetime inclusive fitness for the individual in question), while the conscious model is all about making the individual maximally effective within their social niche(s) in garnering, approval, status, help, forgiveness, etc.

    Questions about IIT: 1) Is IIT part of computational functionalism ? In a sense it seems it is, as we could realise a brain with wires or biological neurons and IIT is supposed to conclude the same thing if the function is the same as long as we respect the "connecting structure". In a sense it seems it is not, as IIT seems to conclude that the simulation of a brain on a Turing machine is not something conscious, the function is the same but the physical structure is different. Did I got it right ? 2) Could you confirm that this structural postulate is by definition untestable ? because something like a simulation of a brain (on a Turing machine) will lead to the same external behavior and will have homologous inner workings than a real brain, so observations will be the same but the theory concludes 2 different things.

    OISTの、子供を出張に連れていく必要経費が場合によっては出るという制度はいいですね。女性に限ったことではないのですが、夫婦で同じ国際学会に参加すると、小さい子供は学会に一緒に連れていく必要が出てくるし、日常的にも、休日に職場に行こうとするとやはり子供も一緒に連れていく必要が出てきます。しかし、少なくとも15年くらい前までは、日本ではかなりnegativeに見られていたと思います。「学会に遊びに行っている」だの、「子供にホワイトボードマーカーを使わせている」だのと。加えて、海外出張に子供を連れていって学校を休ませるということの切実さを小学校の担任はよく理解できず、子供が悪い扱いを受けるということもありましたね、学習発表会で悪い役を配されたり、授業中に手を上げても当ててもらえないとか、授業中の課題を先に仕上げても、他の子供達の後にしか受け付けてもらえないとか。そういうことがあると、少なくともウチでは、母親の研究者の方が、父親の研究者以上に、そういうリスクに敏感になりました。「母親が子供の世話をするのが当たり前」という考えを含む、日本社会に根強くかつ広く残る家父長的価値観が、当人の判断にまで影響を及ぼしてしまうのだと思います。ですので、こういう根深い価値観自体をupdateしていくことが、女性研究者のキャリアを考える上では大事ではないかと思います。そういう意味では中田さんの最近のCZcams大学の「日本経済再生計画」(だったかな?)はとても有用に思いました。

    Things feel the way they do because of the biophysics of our nervous system. The way we feel and perceive is likely similar between individuals. If the mechanisms are the same, things feels different to different people because their brains are in different states.

    It sounds like - from your summary - insight vs non-insight solutions depended on the test subjects self-reporting once, after dozens of trials, whether they were using “insight”or not? It sounds like the experiment is actually establishing whether working memory strain during a task correlates with a subject speculating that their solution strategy involved insight overall. How would the authors disambiguate those, I wonder? We can guess from the graph you show (5:17) that [the probability of subjects reporting “insight”] might correlate negatively with [the duration of each correct trial], but I’m curious: did the authors try to look at a correlation between the trial durations near the end of the set of trials to see if it correlated better with what subjects reported? Would the speed of the subject solving the last few trials correlate more clearly with reporting “insight” than the speed of all trials? (Is reporting at the end focusing on the last trials?) Is there reason to suspect that the same strategy was likely to be used across trials for a given subject? And what do we think it means when a subject reports that they used insight? Is there consensus in the field that this sense in the subject matches the notion of insight employed in the literature?

    Funny that they’re talking about the telencephalon yet completely disregard that hydranencephalic children have no cortex whatsoever and are completely conscious beings who react to appropriately to stimuli both pleasant and noxious. Any theory of consciousness that relies solely on the cortex without regard for the brainstem is a bit shortsighted in my mind. Mark Solms’s work has shown that the brainstem is responsible for the conscious state of being. There have been experiments where PAG stimulation has caused the most intense states of affect that humans are capable of producing. Is the cortex at the center of our ability to choose? Absolutely. But the center of consciousness is in the brainstem, not the cortex.

    It seems like "reductive explanations" means something specific? I am completely new to this and appreciate any explanations.

    • @k__k___
      @k__k___ Před rokem

      Hey, this is me presenting, so I can answer. To answer your question, no, reductive here is meant in the philosophical sense, not specific. When thinking about theories or concepts, you can often 'reduce' theories down into "simpler" terms, aka the sum of the theory's parts. For example, you could argue that the field of Chemistry could be 'reduced' into physics, as chemistry deals with the phenomena of atoms interacting (amongst other things). Many biological processes can be reduced into chemical reactions. Many psychological behaviours can be reduced into biological processes (emotions are often results of hormones, for example). The point in this context is that when we talk about consciousness theories, which are far less developed than classic theories of physics are, we can say they can't be fully reduced, because as I present, each theory cannot answer some questions we have about consciousness. For example, there presently exists evidence that the pre-frontal cortex is important, crucial even, for consciousness. There also exists evidence that it does not. In order for a theory to be fully reducible, it must be able to explain phenomena that we presently say proves the theory, and phenomena that we presently say refutes it. This is because we can observe both, so we know both happens, but our theories cannot yet explain why. There needs to be a theory that can account for one side and also explain the other, or somehow prove that one is actually showing evidence for something else, perhaps something we dont even know yet.

  • @astonishinghypothesis

    Hm. Contradictory logic indeed: A claim that nothing can be known about certain things claims to know that about them. Likewise, the claim that no properties can be attributed to something, attributes a property to that something. And the claim that we cannot conceive of something conceives that something to be that way. If it really were a contradictory state that underlies it all, why is the opposite - rule-based logic and math - so powerful in explaining virtually everything we experience?
