Quantities of qualia.
Thomas, M.S.C.; Atkinson, A.P.
Abstract
We address two points in this commentary. First, we question the extent to which O’Brien & Opie have established that the classical approach is unable to support a viable vehicle theory of consciousness. Second, assuming that connectionism does have the resources to support a vehicle theory, we explore how the activity of the units of a PDP network might sum together to form phenomenal experience (PE).
