So there is a certain tongue in cheek air to the video, but it's serious stuff. Watch as a prominent, intelligent and articulate advocate defines consciousness to encompass thermostats. Then using a definition that matches thermostats, proceeds to try and debunk an argument that I seriously don't think he understands. Sorry Stephen! I'd be happy to help you out though. This is what I try to do in this video.
