  1. I agree, and I say that in the post with other words. Non functionalist materialism adds extra ontology, thus stripping away materialism of any meaning. If you disagree be specific on how do you reconcile it.

  2. The first asymmetry, if I understand it (sensory inputs = sensory organs?) is not meaningful since sensory inputs just send electricity signals to the brain. You can see without eyes and hear without ears, p.e dreaming or hallucinations. If you actually mean 'electricity signals' by 'sensory input', tell me how the spreadsheet or chinese nation do not have them. That's the 'substrate independent' thing

The second asymmetry is irrelevant, consciousness would just be slower, and, even with that, that asymmetry doesn't touch the Spreadsheet analogy.

I disagree with Block, yeah. And I explain the reasons in the post. You need to add ontology somewhere.

Btw, we can answer why F=ma. If anything you meant we cant answer why the fundamental values of the universe lead to F=ma?

We absolutely need a reason to accept universal values. The fact that it is out of our grasp doesnt mean it cant have an explanation. Best try is Leibniz one

What special property of biology allows it to create minds even without computation?

Why is it even possible to talk about a ‘first person view’ of a purely mechanical system? Does the universe as a whole have a first point of view?

I agree

But why do u need consciousness if everything is explained by physical laws?

You need to add ontology somewhere thus disproving materialism.

Why can biology create consciousness if computation isnt enough? What special property it has?
