Let's say I insist that rocks are conscious and I ask you to disprove that. How would you go about doing that? It's a genuine question.
replyI assume that we both think rocks are not conscious, but I'm genuinely unsure of how one could prove this.
I would agree that a rock is not sentient, but determining whether or not it is conscious would require a definition of consciousness and a machine that could test for it.
