@franco_vazza@mastodon.social You are running simulations of systems with "electro-magnetic fields overlapping in a complex way".
Why is the one simulation possible and valid and the other is not?
(I'm not saying these models of consciousness are plausible.)

@qrios@mathstodon.xyz I am really not an expert of consciousness (TBH: who is??), but I read a lot of what is there. If by chance an Electromagnetic model of consciousness is right (clearly not the mainstream scenario, but a legitimate one as well) consciousness would emerge from the physical overlap of EM fields - not their simulated version, really the fields. Meaning you can produce it only having wires arranged with the same topology of real brains. So.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_theories_of_consciousness#cite_note-10
