​How on earth can both have *THE *1-p view, or have anything else for that
matter, if that thing is *UNIQUE*?   ​

I just saw a black cat.
I have become The Black Cat Seeing Man.
Why am I The Black Cat Seeing Man and not The White Cat Seeing Man?
Because I just saw a black cat.

I just saw Moscow.
I have become the Moscow Seeing Man.
Why am I the Moscow Seeing Man and not the Washington Seeing Man?
Because I just saw Moscow.

I believe both though experiments are of equal philosophical profundity.
Zero.

This? It's true Neither the Washington Man nor the Moscow Man could have
guessed "this", and they couldn't have guessed anything else either because
before the duplication neither the Washington Man nor the Moscow man even
existed. However the Helsinki Man could most certainly have predicted that
the copy of himself who saw Moscow would become the Moscow Man and the copy
of himself who saw Washington would become the Washington Man.  What else
is there to predict? What is "this"?

​Yesterday somebody predicted that today a male would see Moscow. I am a
male and yet today I don't see Moscow. Therefore the prediction has been
refuted and no male saw Moscow today. ​

This gets to the
​very ​
key of the issue! If true then it's not a people duplicating machine, there
is something about consciousness that no arrangement of atoms can produce
and computationalism is
​
dead wrong.

But
​then ​
you're assuming the very thing you're trying to prove,

​Yesterday in Helsinki the HW-guy couldn't know anything at all because
until H-guy saw Washington the HW-guy didn't exist.​
