Even from very early philosophy, like Descartes arguing that animals were just machines that mimic the appearance of experience, but they don't have any inner life.
That concept from the 1600s really shaped Western science and philosophy because they were very intertwined back then.
But even that machine metaphor, you know, that's been retreating in the face of evidence for 300 years.
We no longer look at a dog and think that a dog is a soulless, thoughtless being.
We might think it's only thinking about smelling butts and stuff, but it thinks.
The critical distinction is between nociception, which is our ability to detect a harmful stimulus, which is a reflexive, automatic response that requires no consciousness, and pain, which is that subjective experience of suffering, which requires the brain to generate a negative state.
And so with only nocioception, we react to touching a hot plate as a reflex.
You don't think about it.
You have sensed that it's hot and you move your hand.
With pain, we learn not to do that again.
Well, I think this really started back in 1991.
