Nick_Tarleton: Then that would be different part of my post you're now objecting to. First, you denied that there was an "interface" between the amplitude distribution and our cognitive architectures. Now, the part of my post you deem ill-posed, is the part where I ask about the brain "inferring objects". And that's a fair point, but at least try to be consistent about what part you deemed in error.

So, yes, it was perhaps too specific, or too anthropomorphic (!) to talk of the brain "inferring objects". What I mean is, what is the mapping between amplitude distributions and my conscious experience of an object? I'm guessing Eliezer is going to answer that in later posts.
