RE: The Robots Are Coming: Synthetic Ascension - Conceiving A Digital Mind
@xist, are you mixing that class with moral philosophy as well? 😁
mind, body and spirit are inseparable.
I was going to say at the moment, however Melissa Loomis is controlling a robot hand that isn't actually attached to her, so that statement doesn't ring true for her.
The mind is the spirit. Spirit is the name we give to our own acknowledgement of ourselves... if you wanna get philosophical about it! 🤣
ya the mind/body is for a class called Historical Narratives: Foundations of Modern Psychology. I'm interested in cognition, not into morals but some metaphysical philosophy.
i more modern terms the body refers to physical reality and the brain while the mind refers to the internal subjective experiences of intangible intellectual things like rationality and logic or imagination. how they come to interact isn't fully understood by science.
i like your definition of spirit. i think of it as energy or awareness.
I'm guessing Melissa Loomis still has an entire body and nervous system.
thanks for helping with my assigment ;p
