Dive into the mind-bending thought experiment of philosophical zombies—beings physically identical to humans but lacking consciousness. Explore how this concept challenges our understanding of consciousness, identity, and death. Through examining these hypothetical beings who act like us but lack inner experience, Liv investigates profound questions about what makes us truly alive and conscious, and what that means for our understanding of death. A fascinating intersection of philosophy, neuroscience, and mortality that challenges listeners to reconsider what it means to be conscious—and what it means to cease being so.
