Chalmers's computationalism

Chalmers’s computationalism is the idea that the mind works similarly to a computer, processing information through algorithms and computations. He argues that mental states, like thoughts and feelings, can be understood as information processing activities. This perspective suggests that understanding the brain's operations may help explain consciousness and how we experience thoughts. In essence, just as a computer uses data to produce outputs, our brains process sensory input to form our experiences, leading to a deeper comprehension of how we think and perceive the world.
