Silver bullets and sensory horizons

Michael H. Herzog, Adrien Doerig

Abstract

However, these functions can be implemented without consciousness and may make consciousness epiphenomenal. As with other current theories of consciousness, too much explanatory weight rests on a small number of explanatory factors.
