Great read. Such an awesome concept to consider, I wish that I had had a greater appreciation for the relationship between neuro and computer science when I was in school, but perhaps I'll still find a way to pivot toward the industry down the line.

I am very glad that you brought up your support of enactivism, Cartesian duality and representationalism still have strong holds in the public understanding of the cognition and I find that in my current role, updating conceptions of conciousness never really benefits any of my geriatric folks that are just trying to find ways to heal. But as a neuroscientist that also studies philosophy, I am fascinated by the discussions surrounding free will and enactivism.
