Qualia is just the name we give to experience anon

>> No.10037149

80% of humans never experience qualia

No. You're the only one who experiences qualia. The rest of us are what you might call "p-zombies", only it's no hypothetical, we're very real and are just perfect simulacrums of sentient beings.

This is true. Look out, I might claim to have an internal monologue, but that's just something I reflexively say despite having no internal world.

All that exists is qualia. Objective reality is where qualia is interfering witylh itself which cancels it out and leaves behind material objects. In the mind, the cancellation is undone by modeling the world outside.

Basically pzombies or npc's do not exist. Humans with different levels of awareness and self-awareness may exist, which may still come close to a pzombie/npc, except that if theyre educated they can learn to raise their awareness.

If you never taught a child anything, it would be feral and much like an animal. Conscious, but only concerned with the present and unaware of consequences or empathy. Definitely closer to an NPC but not 100% there. Its still fucked to cause harm to such a being if not required for defense/survival.

How could one even not experience qualia
Even fucking cameras have one

>> No.10039065

>>10039023
Cameras don't experience. Human eyes and a brain are nothing like a camera. Btw, everyone in this thread saying "experience qualia" is obv a retard who doesn't realize this is a redundant statement. Unless you're an intellectually stunted solipsist you will agree that all humans experience.

The empirical answer is that only I experience qualia.
