The map is not the territory. Just because descriptions of our brain states won’t help us figure out what subjective experiences are like (either currently or in the foreseeable future), doesn’t mean that those experiences aren’t a part of the physical world somehow
OK. I am not arguing for duaism. I am arguing against the claim tha adopting reductionism, or materialism, or m/b identity constitutes a resolution of any of any Hard Problem. What you are saying is that m/b identity might be true as unintelligible brute fact. What I am saying is that brute facts aren’t explanations.
