The problem of consciousness has been largely trated by David Chalmers, Daniel Dennet, Thomas Nagel, and others. This is not something i’m inventing.
If you assume that matter possesses the necessary properties for first-person experience to emerge, the first consequence is that you must also assume these properties are present in all matter in the universe. The second consequence is that science has so far failed to detect these properties, as none of the known properties of matter currently allow for first-person experience or suggest the potential for it to emerge.
On the other hand, if you assume that matter does not possess the necessary properties to produce first-person experiences, then you must consider that such experiences are generated from a source other than matter, arising under specific material arrangements.
If there are any other options, I would be interested to know.
