Can #algorithms, #robots, and #artificialintelligence ever develop true #consciousness or the #ability to feel? Or will they forever remain mere #data-processing machines?

🧠💻 The Big #Fallacy: Why Our #Brain Isn't a #Computer

The popular #brain-computer analogy misses the mark entirely. The brain doesn't run on code; it works fundamentally differently from any #computer.

🧠 #Brain vs. #Computer💻: Why this #analogy is misleading 🚫

We tend to view the brain as complex #hardware and #consciousness as #software.

Revolving door
Two people step through a revolving door in Chicago. One in dark blue, the other in light.
Before they move, each already feels the turn. The door extracts their feeling going in and out..

Do we really see the #world as it is – or only as our #brain constructs it?

Western philosophy made a mess of colour by pretending it lives either “in objects” or “in minds.”
In reality, colour happens in the encounter — mediated biologically, cognitively, linguistically, culturally.
I dismantle the old binaries and show why the apple was never “red in itself” to begin with.

🧠 #Cognition is embodied 🫃

Perception, thought, and feeling are inextricably linked to the #body.

In the #Zoomposium with Thomas Fuchs, we talk about #embodiment, #consciousness, and #AI—and ask: Does the #body play a role in decision-making?

Good so far :) I'm currently in Padova, Italy where I was invited to speak about the philosophical implications of the #locked-in-syndrome for #4E cognition and #enactivism in special on Wednesday. Something what would probably interesting for you as well, I assume :) Either way, I hope you're doing good, too!

#introduction
I am a trade unionist at #FNV #NL. My master's thesis in #philosophy (2002) was about #Wittgenstein's #pragmatism and #enactivism. I am currently particularly interested in The Labor Question, then and now.

Do my best to learn #Italian. Papà di 2 ragazzi e 2 ragazze.
