Title
Biological naturalism is compatible with substrate independence
Abstract
Seth’s arguments for biological naturalism are not actually arguments for substrate dependence. Most of the criteria he proposes – including embodiment, embeddedness, active inference, allostasis, and metabolism – could be satisfied by digital organisms existing within a sufficiently detailed simulation running on Turing computation.
