What, linking to Conscious Entities again? ...

[alexr_rwx]

Probably the best blog in the whole world, Conscious Entities, has now switched to WordPress, meaning now Peter (the CE dude) now has a feed, meaning...

consc_entities. Which you should friend. Probably right now. Go on, I'll wait.

His description of the site:

What is consciousness, and how does it work? Is the problem of qualia the real 'hard problem', or is that the mystery of intentionality? Is 'strong AI' a mirage, or should we surrender ourselves to the robots? Have we actually got any selves to worry about, or is selfhood illusory - and is consciousness itself just another illusion? These are the issues argued over and (I hope) clarified in these pages.

(also: fairly similar conversations happen in comic book form over at Halo and Sprocket, which is about a young lady, an angel, and a robot)

Ooh. Thanks!

I only know what qualia are because a few weeks ago at Wednesday Night Dinner Club, we got into a discussion of consciousness. We talk about a lot of interesting things at WNDC.

That has got to be the greatest link you have ever posted.  I am forever in your debt for showing me this site.
