Without being a dualist, we can say from neurobiology, ecological psych, coord dynamics, neural reuse that meaning isn't simply upstream. Technically it can't be because of the lan…

Words are merely wax fruit metaphors for meaning, they aren't meaningful in and of themselves. That's how dictionaries exist. Any reality understood from words is mere simulation.

Thought is wordless. It's made in action-spatial syntax. As these are the defined states of intelligence, this would have been a far better approach to emulate. Words and images ar…

There's much more meaning than can be loaded into statements, thoughts, etc. And conscious will is a post-hoc after effect. Any computer has far less access to the meaning load we …
