You "just" think, meaning that process is not to be inspected. Also, different physical process can (and probably do) summon different types of consciousnesses. Most of such consciousnesses are to be called demons, and this is operatively useful designation.

Replying to @ovchinnikov @Alrenous and
you're using "consciousness" to mean "cognitive pattern" which is exactly the kind of thing that has been fucking up the ability to actually consider consciousness throughout this entire conversation, but other than that yeah

He would be completely correct if physical processes summoned consciousness. For physics to be associated with consciousness, it is exactly that physics must be able to tell the difference between a cognitive process and a non-cognitive process, and assign minds to the former.

*I* can tell the difference between a cognitive and non-cognitive process, and I’m not sure what I am if not a big mess of physics. Rather, I can’t see non-circular grounds for you to argue that I’m not.

Qualia have the wrong epistemic and ontological properties to be physics. Namely, they -do- go away when you stop believing in it.

You're denying the obvious at this point. If you stop believing the Earth is flat, then the belief the Earth is flat no longer exists. And vice versa. If you stop imaging a cube and start imagining orange, then the cube ceases to exist.

sure, and the fact that i'm experiencing things depends on neither my believing i am doing so nor me imagining myself to do so

Contradicted by the fact you sleep.

Replying to @Alrenous @smudgie_buggler and
son, i am disappoint on the one hand, experiencing something is in no way falsified by not remembering it afterward, and on the other, anybody who's done very much sleeping should know better than to speak as though experience weren't happening during it
