Daniel Dennett, @danieldennett is immersed in contemporary neuroscience with a superb knack for finding memorable images to communicate his theories. He is a lively writer and really crafts his books, a reason they are recommended many times on Five Books. fivebooks.com/people/books-b…
@calwerz @donalddhoffman @danieldennett All of the "user-illusion" ideas, however do feel unsatisfactory, because, if reality is an user illusion, then who is the user? Sure, its my consciousness, but isn't that itself what we're trying to explain?
@danieldennett They'll control the economy with artificial (but real) demand. It'll be interesting (at least until the point where we'll be unable to make any sense of the organized chaos... which shouldn't take long).
Reading George Williams and once again reminded of this pithy summary from @danieldennett. edge.org/conversation/g…
@neurosutras @dlevenstein @danieldennett No, no, that's the point: there's no such thing as close because there's no such thing as arriving (technically speaking)! Consciousness is not something you can actually measure or achieve. It's really just more of a vibe. 😜

White supremacists try to split the black vote and the Jewish vote because the alliance between those two groups is one of the most powerful in American history. So, you know, try not to do the work of the oppressors when closing the app is also an option.

@keithfrankish @robotsneedpoems @Philip_Goff What would you label a philosopher that rejects both propositional attitudes and qualia? Arguably, Dennett fits into that category. I just label it eliminativism.

@SimsYStuart @adamsafron @WiringTheBrain @danieldennett @seanmcarroll @yudapearl 100% agree & that's the idea behind Poetic "Meta-Naturalism". The point is that what is considered "natural" will change as new phenomena emerge (like mind), thus the line b/w the physical & meta-physical is never completely clear. Today's metaphysics might be tomorrow's physics.
@yudapearl @tdietterich @danieldennett There are so many interesting conversations that we can & should be having, but this is not one of them. Hope to meet again and discuss real problems soon. I admire your work and respect your intellect & hope we can focus our attention on more substantial matters.
