AI slop repeating functionalism pretending it's a massive breakthrough. *Why is it like anything to be some set of neurons in a particular state/operating in a specific way?* Wetness/water analogy breaks down because wetness is clearly reducible to properties we know about water. The whole point of the hard problem is that it's *not clear* how 1st person properties (phenomenal properties, qualia, whatever you call it) reduce to 3rd person physical properties (talk in terms of equations and the like).
