The hard problem — why there is experience at all
the mind
The easy problem is how the brain processes information - physical, sealable. The hard problem is why there is subjective experience at all, why it is like something to be a mind. No measurement reaches it; it is not a physical quantity the engine can seal. The open end of the mind floor: DECLINED, a miss that stays a miss, mapped honestly and never laundered into a theorem.
