Unless I am mistaken, the best theory of how to make FAI ultimately points back to my (and all y'all's) ideas and preferences.

So I guess we should taboo FAI.

I'd argue that you have no better idea of what physical properties correspond to consciousness than I do, you've simply chosen to ignore the question, because you believe you can rely on your own intuitive consciousness-detector.

I am worried about bias. Shouldn't we all be?
