Mitchell Porter is unquestionbly the most knowledgable on this site when it comes to quantum physics and all theoretical physics in general really and the philosophy surrounding it.

I don't believe you.

If you disagree with him, fine, point out his errors, but don't call it "bullshit" just because you dislike it

He called the non-reductionist qualia bullshit "bullshit" because it is non-reductionist qualia bullshit.

Ok, if you don't believe me, then let me know who this other person is? I wont have a lengthy discussion about whos more knowledgable in a comment section, but I'd really like to see who you think knows more physics than Porter. Please don't say Yudkowsky, that'd be a joke.

I know Porter mainly from other place where physics is dicussed and not AI
