EM fields might indeed have an effect on the human neuro-system. I am merely asking how would consciousness develop, unplanned in a server farm? Humans, yes.

If this guy is correct, then simply learning grants consciousness. Learning May Be the Key to the Evolution of Consciousness | Psychology Today I have questions, but because I do, doesn't make me the arbiter of computer consciousness.

I am ask to to put the same effort into how a network developed this in so little time. Our our analog chips so mighty in 2022-3??? What produces consciousness is consciousness-associated behaviour. If it’s EM fields (it probably isn’t) then EM fields would have some effect on behaviour, and if this effect could be replicated by some other means, the consciousness would also be replicated. -- Stathis Papaioannou-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
