As I've posted before, when we know how look at a brain and infer what it's thinking and we know how to build a brain that behaves as we want, in other words when we can do consciousness engineering, the "hard problem" will be bypassed as a metaphysical non-question, like "Where did the elan vital go?" Brent
This is a position expressed by Jeffrey Gray as follows (he does not share it):
«What looks like a Hard Problem will cease to be one when we have understood the errors in our ways of speaking about the issues involved. If the route were successful, we would rejoin the normal stance: once our head have been straightened out, science could again just get on with the job of filling in the details of empirical knowledge.»
