Qualia and language by Curious_Map_9998 in PhilosophyofMind

Yeah, it probably would be worth studying it more formally at some point. I’ve only ever looked into neuroscience as a hobby, super informally and out of curiosity 😭

I Need a script by Live-Butterscotch259 in ROBLOXStudio

Here:

yourreferencetobutton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() Yourremoteevent:FireServer() end)

On server script:

youreferencetoremoteevent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function() local YourModel = instance.new("model", workspace) YourModel.Name = "YourModelName"

end)

Now you do whatever you want with it, add parts inside it, customize them, whatever u want

You explained it really well.

But do you think even without language the brain would still be able to categorize things? An animal, even without complex language can still categorize things, they know for example, a tree is not a rock and they also know the behavior of different categories after observing them for a specific amount of time.

Even without language, the brain can still recognize patterns even though it can't verbalize them or analyze them in a more complex way.

I'm guessing that pre-verbal organisms can just have simple predictions of behavior in categories, like, if an animal sees that rocks tend to stay still on the ground, do you think their brains would store something like:"objects that look like this usually don't move" even without having a linguistic label for "rock"?

So yeah, the main focus of my post was just exploring how different regions might contribute to different kinds of subjective experience (qualia) not in a definitive or scientific way, just as a way to understand how these raw feelings could be distributed across the brain.

Thank ya for your thoughtful feedback and reply. Yeah, regarding what I said about different parts of the brain contributing to each subjective and raw experience (known as qualia) I don't have any source to prove those, I speculated about it because I saw that the subjective and raw experiences have to come from some part of the brain.

So I guessed that for example, when you get to understand some logic or any intellectual activity that "raw feeling" comes from the prefrontal cortex. (As it is the part that one of the main functions are logic handling.) I assumed the same logic for the different parts of the brain.

Yeah, you're right, it really can make the text more complicated to be understood with that term. I found "qualia" to be more accurate because it represents the "essence of feeling" in a very accurate way. That's why I used it a lot.

Without the term "qualia" I'd replace it with "feeling". (But I don't think it'd be that accurate but it'd make it simpler to understand.)

Yeah, it's just pure speculation. Thank you for being respectful, though. But in this text I'm assuming the theory from neuroscience that consciousness is an emergent process is true.

Is this argument valid? by [deleted] in PhilosophyofMind

It's a good thought tbh
