The simple questions cracking the hard problem of consciousness Do we all see the same red? Or feel joy and sadness alike? Mapping how our inner experiences relate to one another could finally reveal how physical processes in the brain give rise to consciousness

Very readable! Thanks, George! @gmusser

We are very excited to share this new preprint @yutogashi.bsky.social @oizumim.bsky.social with the excellent video providing the idea! The paper explains how this approach actually goes into more details in revealing subtle individual difference and complex structures of color qualia.

Excited to share our new preprint w/@yukoy.bsky.social , Chihiro Hiramatsu, @naotsuchiya.bsky.social & @oizumim.bsky.social ! We present the world’s first empirical evidence supporting that "my red" is "your red", through an unsupervised alignment of color qualia structures at the individual level.

We have achieved our long-held ambition of aligning the similarity structures of color experience at the "individual level". This study addresses the fundamental question from the structure perspective: Does my red correspond to your red?
