Hi John Clark
Unless computers can deal with inextended objects such as
mind and experience, they cannot be conscious.
Consciousness is direct experience, computers can only deal in descriptions of
experience.
Everything that a computer does is, to my knowledge, at least
in principle

I know that, but his theory of electromagnetism is a physical theory,
even if it's hard to pin down the extension property.
Physical theories can tell us nothing about philosophy or mind or God,
since they cannot deal with meaning. Physics is meaningless.

Subjectivity is
the view from within, looking out, not the view from outside
objectively looking in.

Roger,
If human consciousness comes from attached monads, as I think you have claimed,
then why could not these monads attach to sufficiently complex computers
as well.

But that programmer is far removed from us.

Stephen,
I'm not sure that there is any real disagreement between your view and
Bruno's. It seems more to be a language thing, if anything. When
Bruno refers to a physics, he means the appearance of a physical world
from the perspective of observers.
