Ah. Glen. As usual. Like a stiletto to the heart. "dualism", indeed!
I suspect that somewhere in those two sentences hides the answer I have been trying get about what a computer model of consciousness might look like. But that would take another thread. To be honest, I don't have the band width right now, anyway. I barely have the band width to eat breakfast.

That's an unjustified assertion. There's plenty of evidence that our CNS *simulates* the world and reuses components in both interacting with the world and simulating the world. Your dualism will not be tolerated. >8^D There's a branch of xAI where the black boxes are "explained" dualistically with a white box analog that simulates the black box and something like the A/R ε-equivalence is used to build trust/credibility in the fidelity of that simulation. But they don't hot-swap components with each other, which is why (I think) such methods are ultimately less credible than types of xAI where the system that explains IS the system that executes.
