Based on the fact that people speaking different languages can lack basic abstract concepts or reason about them very differently, I think thoughts do have a language or at least often follow a language. Here's a link to a transcript o

My point was that the original comment is a low-level view with missing details that gives little insight on the complexity of the phenomenon, not a support for dualism. It's all brain tissues and the information they encode. I think w

Anecdotal experience but most of the people I've seen being fired in one of the big ones are senior people working in customer facing roles, where the expectation is that they will be replaced by AI and wishful thinking. Newly hired pe

They might be doing that already by acting as scalpers. I don't see why the solution isn't simply what airlines are doing where you register a ticket to a name and it's non-transferable.
