Looking for some weekend listening or reading? Check out my recent #TheoryOfChange podcast (or read its transcript).

A fun, very Jaan-like, and inspiring discussion about some principles outlined in our most recent paper on #biological #computationalism.
The clear mind of @jaanaru.bsky.social at it for @thetransmitter.bsky.social
If we want #synthetic #consciousness, the challenge is not to find what algorithm we should run.
But, what kind of physical system must compute it and what are it’s features.
That is the shift #biological #computationalism demands.
8/n
The debate is stuck between two camps:
computational #functionalism vs biological #naturalism.
In our new paper, we propose a third way: #biological #computationalism.

Classic and connectionist computationalism
