An imposing figure in the philosophy of mind, whose books on consciousness were among the first I read on the topic, always written in his distinctively clear, illustrative, and engaging style. His passing is a tremendous loss to academia.

Figments of Reality: The Evolution of the Curious Mind by Ian Stewart & Jack Cohen, 1997

Peppered with wit and controversial topics, this is a refreshing new look at the co-evolution of mind and culture. Bestselling authors Ian Stewart and Jack Cohen (The Collapse of Chaos, 1994) eloquently argue that our minds evolved within an inextricable link with culture and language.

The Emergence of Mind: Where Technology Ends and We Begin by Jeffrey Kane demonstrates the profound and fundamental limitations of the technology and its use as a model of human thinking. In response, the book offers an emergent model of the human mind rooted in our experiences as living, sentient, social and conscious beings.

It was a long process (more than 2 years since we wrote the preregistration document) but our new study was finally published in yesterday ! The paper itself is rather technical but the central idea is worth sharing in a thread. ⬇️ (1/X)

What's your position regarding consciousness? Broad physicalism (we'll have a scientific explanation one day) or broad anti-physicalism (science can't give a complete account)? Or something else?

Please repost after voting, I'm genuinely curious! 🤔

“I argue that in spite of the ingenuity of Burge’s objections, they fail to show that there is no motivation for taking representational states as reducible to more fundamental natural states or that the core thesis of teleosemantics is flawed.”

I'm fairly confident that I won't be writing on panpsychism again any time soon... My interests switched to reevaluating physicalism again, especially in connection with cognitive science and empirically-informed approaches to consciousness in a broader sense. I don't have a strong opinion on which position is 'true' - and maybe that's bad for a philosopher - I just go by what I find worthy of further investigation 🤷🏻‍♂️

@krishnadeltoso @philosophy @startupnews @cogsci Sounds interesting! I learnt a lot from philosophical entries like Animal Cognition and Animal Consciousness,

https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/cognition-animal/

https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/consciousness-animal/

Maybe AI could help us to avoid excessive anthropomorphic bias in our attempts to learn what there is? After all, it just could be creative, couldn't it,
