I recall a C discussion we had a long time ago about a robot "P- zombie". That if it could indeed function indistinguishably from a human, meaning being able to communicate a full range of subjective experiences, that it would be conscious (as much as humans are).
Whoa please, Sir. Given the metaphysical stage we're upon please note that the measure of 'consciousness' has fuck all to do with being human. That is, the essence of consciousness here is up for debate. Therefore, any debates here about zombies and/or robots/computers in direct comparison to 'being human', are fucking useless.
If you want to be sincere/genuine regards having a metaphysical debate in the philosophy forum about consciousness, then desist from presenting the retarted view that YOU ARE a physical human being prior to explaining anything else, especially consciousness.
In this part of the world, the philosophy forum, you will look like a retard every time you disregard this advice. You've been doing it regardless for about a decade. If you do it once more I will make you look like a zombie.
Had a discussion about your variety of belief with some philosophers. They feel that you represent far less than 1% of those in the field today. Bit of a maverick y'are.
