    Meat chauvinism.

    Yet another terribly clever person making the circular argument: “computers can’t be conscious because computers can’t be conscious.” Like there’s no way intelligence is computable because humans are magic.

    How far into this do I have to skim before this otherwise-respectable intellectual namedrops John Searle’s horseshit thought experiment? That motherfucker would scoop your brain out, by the spoonful, looking for a little man inside who can explain what all this useless pink stuff is doing.
