OK. No problem with this. But my interest are in consciousness and qualia, and the
advantage of computer science is that it can handles the computer's truth that the
computer cannot communicate, observe feel, see, etc.
The computer cannot prove some theorems. And it's commonly said people can't
communicate qualia, e.g. perceptions, feelings, emotions (although we manage at some
level). But that doesn't make (unprovable theorems)= qualia.
Yes, you are right. But the qualia is not related to non-provability, but to ~[]p with
[] being an intensional variants of provability.
?? What are "intensional variants of provability" and why should they satisfy the same
incompleteness relations as provability?
