all of the above

when you get down to it, i don't really understand the point of philosophy, or at least these big questions that a lot of people are obsessed with. like, you could make the argument that in order for a human being to interpret the phrasebook in a way that makes it possible, the book would have to have some level of consciousness in order to filter and intuit that person's needs in order for it to not take an infinite amount of time to learn those rules. that book is, technically speaking, more conscious in that conversation than the human, and the human is really the book's utility, not the other way around

that's obviously not salient to what's really being asked, but the debates i've heard about basically about the same kind of minutiae. stuff to distract yourself with, prove you're thinking about morality or thought or whatever so you can pretend that you're not letting your monster run rampant
