#5040·Dennis Hackethal, 7 days agoA quale can be recorded and replayed later, arbitrarily many times.
How do you know this?
That's what I get for suddenly returning to this discussion after a long gap. I was thinking that any computation can be recorded and re-run at will, in principle. So qualia can too. But indeed, I have suggested in this discussion that it is the evolution of programs that causes experience, and evolution cannot be scripted. This means a quale that is recorded will not "qualiate" if it is rerun exactly as recorded.
TL;DR: I don't.
