Reply To: Questions about Model 2, Brains and Consciousness

[Lucas]

Hello. Reading this topic, brings up some doubts in my mind.

However, first I want to thank once again Auburn and everyone else is involded in the project for the project itself and for the opportunity that you are giving us to participate in the discussion.

So, let's go to the doubts.

P+ has to do objects management and Se actually manage objects, forming real mental objects from visual processing,  on the other hand Ne forms only caricature-like/intersected objects from visual processing. Then, because every human beings forms mental objects  independently of his/her type, how Ne forms mental objects ?

If  instead Ne forms real mental objects too, then it has, at least partially,  the same function of Se, so there  could be an overlap between the two and, because we constantly form real mental objects , this would results to be a big overlap.

If Ne come after a sort of real mental object already exists in the brain, then other doubts can follow, in my opinion.

If a real mental object already exists before Ne activation, then :

• it has to already exists in Se people, so what could be the Se function?
• if doesn't exists a similar route in Se people,  then their brain should be considered differently wired.

At this point, if my doubts are valuable to the CT theory aim, it would follow that Ne and Se could be reduced to one single Function.

Thanks.
