Eye On A.I. · How Modern Science Got Consciousness Wrong From the Start | Philip Goff · 29 Jun 2026 podcast

It's it's philosophy.

Here here is how I

see the the problem of consciousness.

There's stuff we know about consciousness from the inside.

There's stuff we know about the physical world from the outside.

And the question is, how do we bring them together in a single, elegant, simple, unified picture of reality?

We have to br they're both real.

They're both real.

The physical world we know about from experiments is real.

Consciousness is real.

How do we put them together?

I mean, historically, the um the way to put them together is dualism, you know, that this is what Galileo did, you know, consciousness is in the soul, it's separate from the body and the brain, but it's intimately connected.

Very good recent work on dualism by Ralph Weir, who's very powerfully argued that pretty much everyone in history was a dualist.

until recent times.

Okay, that I think that's a possibility.

I don't think that the more I've learnt about neuroscience and learn actually how little we know, I don't think we know dualism is false.

But there's a simpler option.

Panpsychism is a simpler option, and panpsychism says there aren't two kinds of thing.

There's just one kind of thing.
