Me, too.
Mine is: a response to relations we get to know about. Nothing more. Not
human/elephant/dolphin, not universe, not awareness, not nothing, just RESPONSE.
Just *any* response? Doesn't the response have to be something we can identify as
intelligent or purposeful?
By anything on anything. You may even include the figments of the Physical World into
the inventory.
So do you agree that if we build a machine, such as a Mars Rover, that exhibits
intelligence in its response then we may conclude it is aware/conscious?
