Ok, so you are rejecting computationalism. Computationalism is the
hypothesis that our mind supervenes on computations (sorry Bruno,
it's
easier to write for the purpose of this discussion :). You are
declaring that mind supervene on the physical brain.
That is not it at all. We've clarified with Bruno many times that
computational supervenience is compatible with physical
supervenience.
It should be if computationalism is correct, and if we are not deadly
wrong in physics.
Which is just as well, as otherwise it would be so much
the worse for computationalism.
But we must do the test, and indeed, if Z1* or X1* differ too much
from Quantum Logic, we get evidences to doubt computationalism, or we
save computationalism by assuming that we are in a malevolent
emulation made by our descendants.
