RE: Are there 3 worlds that are fundamentally different ?

in #philosophy7 years ago

You could be a philosophical zombie https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophical_zombie , that can perform all the functions of a real organism, but doesn't require consciousness. The "random electrical signals" that deal with our environment can function perfectly well without needing someone to experience them .

Sort:  

But we are philosophical zombies copying things that others have left before us. We don't do anything different other what our DNA does throughout its replication and consequent variations. All life follows the same path.

Where does the "subjective" world fit in if you're a zombie?

"A philosophical zombie or p-zombie in the philosophy of mind and perception is a hypothetical being that is indistinguishable from a normal human being except that it lacks conscious experience, qualia, or sentience.[1] For example, if a philosophical zombie was poked with a sharp object it would not feel any pain sensation, yet could behave exactly as if it does feel pain (it may say "ouch", recoil from the stimulus, and say that it is feeling pain)."
