What differentiates the brain and the computer
Most likely complexity
Do cats have brains?
Yes, but ones that don't have language
Brain doesn't have formal logic circuits I'm pretty sure
Then the brain does not require language
Well until you have language
You’ve disproven yourself
Yeah and a brain without language doesn't make categorizations
Which was my claim
Literally
It does. The cat acts
Ergo it must recognize differentia between objects
They act according to relations in their memories yes, calling this categorization is intellectually dishonest
There is an order of magnitude difference here
Even such memories being distinct from current reality is a categorization
It's not
...
So memories are current reality?
Categorization is definitionally systematic
Well done
Applause
Categorization is not just differentiation, it requires logical systematization, that means a linguistic framing
We both agreed to the definition, no such systemacy was agreed to
What's up hegelians
You are being intellectually dishonest now
It's in the definition
It's implicit that there is systematization to categorization
It’s the verb in question regardless
The verb need not be systemic
You are making a massive leap in logic here and I really am not sure if I disengage at this point
Let me make that easier for you
Go away
I mean use words however you want, but no one will know what you mean
Fuck off
Either address me or don’t
I'm sorry you don't understand the importance of linguistics in the development of abstract thought
I’m sorry you can’t recognize how basic cognition works
But sometimes it do be like that
