The heart also performs endocrine functions, it can react dynamically to the brain, it can grow, it can heal, it can become infected, etc...

Yes, OK, I understand that. But this also means that COMP relies on the assumption that whatever is not emulable about our brains (or whatever else) does not matter at all to what we (locally) are, only what is emulable matters. I find this assumption completely unwarranted and I have yet to see evidence for it or a reasoning behind it. benjayk -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Simple-proof-that-our-intelligence-transcends-that-of-computers-tp34330236p34389041.html Sent from the Everything List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
