[Platt] The brain reaches a certain level of complexity and "oops," you get consciousness.
[Arlo] And how do you see the MOQ disputing this? Did "consciousness" exist before the brain reached a certain level of complexity? If so, where? Where was "consciousness" ten million years ago? I gather what this boils down to is "preconceived intent", where any "theory" that does not pay homage to an external, "quasi-sentient" planner/controller is to be ridiculed as being "value-free". If I am right, then the ONLY answer you would accept from science is "a designer made consciousness", worded in various ways but that would be the jist. "Quali-god" or "oops". Sorry, you can have that argument with someone else.
