Dr. Ciaunica @annaciaunica.bsky.social - “Mortal Bodies and Immortal Minds in Biological and Artificial Systems: What Dennett Taught Us,” - on #embodiment of #AI, what differentiates living organisms and artificial systems. “When does the body know without our knowing? #Consiousness

“What did your body think before you got your brain?” by @drmichaellevin.bsky.social, from his talk Kinds of Minds: Philosophy and Science Meet in the Study of Diverse Intelligence at Tufts University. This question about cognition beyond neurons made me reflect on infant #consciousness & death.

When one thinks about the formation of life 4.2 billion years ago, there was no brain, but an already complex life including instincts for organization, pattern making, movement, etc. We still contain the early complexity for the foundations of life, but forgot their behavioral implications.

Excellent interview with Philosopher/Cognitive Scientist Anna Ciaunica. Anna articulates expansive and timely topics so beautifully… ✨
