What is there to define? These are basic Philosophical ideas. I thought this was a Philosophy forum. You can try to beat to death the definitions of things but it only serves to distract from the issues. Do you reject the Hard Problem of Consciousness?

It is a Philosophy forum, although there aren’t credentialed philosophers here AFAIK. I don’t reject anything, but if you are going to discuss something this complex, something without scientific consensus, then you need to be aware that some people do reject it. You can find that out with the simplest of searches. In a Philosophy forum, I expect language that doesn’t sound like I’m talking about whether or not Rodgers is the GOAT.

“The hard problem isn’t a hard problem at all. The really hard problems are the problems the scientists are dealing with. […] The philosophical problem, like all philosophical problems, is a confusion in the conceptual scheme.” – Peter Hacker
