Deep Dive: Consciousness vs Brain Activity with GPT

This is a conversation log
Had a fascinating conversation with GPT about the fundamental question: if thought is just brain activity patterns, what is consciousness? The response covered emergence theory, IIT, the hard problem, and global workspace theory. What struck me most was the clear distinction between neural computations (thoughts) and subjective experience (consciousness). The 'wetness of water' analogy for emergence was particularly helpful - consciousness might emerge from neural interactions like wetness emerges from H₂O molecules..

What do you think?
