💡Consciousness has two mysteries: brain processing and subjective experiences.
🧠Consciousness is an emergent phenomenon of the complex patterns of particles in the brain.
🌌Consciousness is substrate-independent and depends on the structure of information processing.
🔬There is no need to add anything extra to physics to explain consciousness.
❓Understanding the physical properties of the patterns of information processing is key to understanding consciousness.
What are the two mysteries of consciousness?
—The two mysteries of consciousness are how our brain processes information and why we have subjective experiences.
What gives rise to consciousness?
—Consciousness emerges from the complex patterns of particles in our brains.
Is consciousness dependent on the particles in our brains?
—Consciousness is not dependent on the particles themselves, but on the specific patterns and structure of information processing.
Do we need to add anything extra to physics to explain consciousness?
—No, there is no need to add anything extra to physics to explain consciousness.
What should we focus on to understand consciousness?
—To understand consciousness, we should focus on understanding the physical properties of the patterns of information processing.
