“Start with Noam Chomsky, Deepak Chopra, and a robot that loves you no matter what. Add a knighted British physicist, a renowned French neuroscientist, and a prominent Australian philosopher/occasional blues singer. Toss in a bunch of psychologists, mathematicians, anesthesiologists, artists, meditators, a computer programmer or two, and several busloads of amateur theorists waving self-published manuscripts and touting grand unified solutions.” In The Chronicle of Higher Education, Tom Bartlett attends a conference in Arizona to find out: Has Consciousness Lost Its Mind? (These days, consciousness is overrated.)
