The idea that the human mind is not simply a very complex thinking machine is simply a hypothesis. You can come up with examples and arguments all you want but it doesn’t change the fundamental question about the nature of intelligence and consciousness. Unlike most spiritual questions it is falsifiable, which is exciting. Scientists need only emulate a sufficiently complex brain on a computer. Small worm nervous systems have already been simulated, so the real question is how big do we need to go. My guess is that by the time we have a mouse emulation behaving like a mouse within a physics simulation there will be little question left that intelligence and consciousness are computable.
