Emergent multiscale organisation of neural dynamics fragments in anaesthesia https://direct.mit.edu/imag/article/doi/10.1162/IMAG.a.1364/138384/Emergent-Multiscale-Organisation-of-Neural I'd like to see the ideas linked to perceptual #qualia and extended to study of sensory substitution with altered subjective (visual or vision-like) experience.

I'm not saying that the concept of #personhood is not valid or useful to #moral #decision-making.

I am also aware that this can be emotionally triggering, much the same as discussions of #PersonalIdentity or #Consciousness or #qualia, etc.

But I am saying that 'personhood' has served as a simplified placeholder for a more general and abstract way of looking at moral decision-making—a better view that avoids the bumps and discontinuities at the limits of the 'personhood' view, and provides extensibility to allow for moral (right-in-principle) decision-making applied to non-person objects such as our environment, animals of various types and degrees of sentience, actions against 'persons' but with no measurable consequences, and moral consideration of potential artificial agents to the extent that they act within a shared context of #meaningmaking
