Do I really need to prove that humans have cognition? Or, more to the point, do you want to challenge that assumption?

- madaxe_again 5d agoAbsolutely you do. I can’t prove that I have cognition. I merely have the impression that I do, and we accept as a general axiom that others do too - but it is not provable. You are examining a system from within the confines of that system. And you’re seriously going with “don’t ask inconvenient questions” as an argument?
- YeGoblynQueenne 5d ago>> And you’re seriously going with “don’t ask inconvenient questions” as an argument? Where did I say that? The conversation you seem to want to have doesn't seem to have any obvious use and you seem to want to debate a point I never made. I don't seem to be needed here so I will now bow out of the conversation.
- calf 5d agoThat commenter was already obnoxious under this thread, and today they are relitigating Searle-Turing via Hofstadter GEB slop, so they are also an ignoramus.
