Hi Jason Resch
Where is the aware subject in the computer ?
Where is the aware subject in you?
What color eyes does he have ?
A blind and deaf person still has a subject, no?

Your proof is missing a step: showing why computers cannot have an
aware subject
Another problem is that your assumption that the ability to choose
requires consciousness means that deep blue (which chooses optimum
chess moves), and Watson (who chose categories and wagers in燡eopardy
) are conscious. 營 don't dispute that they may be燾onscious, but
if they are that contradicts the objective of your proof. 營f you sti
ll maintain that they are not conscious, despite their ability to ch
oose, then there must be some error in your argument.
