Zupančič's work is beyond interesting, and the general sentiment sounds nice...but this could really be utter psychobabble potentially. Wanted to post for others' thoughts either way

Makes sense, "natural human thought" certainly seems like an awareness and analysis of fundamental input processing rather than only input processing.

If we create a functioning virtual human brain with the same number of neurons and connections, there's no basis to consider its awareness and analysis any less than "natural human thought".
