Woah, I have never seen a paper which proposes that soft- vs hard-ware is a type of "bad" dualism. Haven't read it yet, just skimmed though.

@Abebab@PsychScientists@GraziosiSergio I think you're into this kind of discussions/ideas. -
Well, I haven't seen anything that endorses Cartesianism to this extent before. I also only had a brief look but I'm inclined to think it's a seriously flawed way of thinking.

Yeah, software vs hardware isn't dualism at all IMHO. Marr's levels also are not dualism, etc.

No this is called functionalism i phil of mind. Predominant physicalist metaphysicshttps://plato.stanford.edu/entries/functionalism/

complicated. computers process information. 1

do brains? unless you define information you cant address the problem

That's actually a socratic fallacy. You don't need to be able to define something to know what it is.

Do children know what a cow is? Yes. Can they define it like a dictionary or a biologist? No.

But they can explain why a horse is not a cow. Can produce info of cow and horse essence.
