To give examples from media properties rather than quizzing everyone on philosophy stuff I only learned this year: Blindsight and Westworld

Personally I find the insistence on this annoying and I think consciousness is really important for correcting errors in vision. Who decides when to loose the arrow on the deer, so you don’t starve? That’s not something which can be handled subsconsciously, training to do it requires presence of mind and imagination.

Let me know if you think I’m misinterpreting it. I am curious what everyone thinks about the fabric of reality.

See, compiling and uploading stuff is good for the brain, it gives us time to reflect. 🧘‍♀️
