Thomas Nagel ‘Imagine that one has webbing on one’s arm,

which enables one to fly around at dusk and dawn catching insects in one’s mouth; that one has very poor vision, and perceives the surrounding world by a system of reflected high-frequency sound signals; and that one spends the day hanging upside down by one’s feet in an attic. In so far I can imagine this (which is not very far), it tells me only what it would be like for me to behave as a bat behaves. But that is not the question. I want to know what it is like for a bat to be a bat.’

Emotions affect and influence intelligence greatly

Technology/ artificial intelligence lacks a brain

Technology cannot learn the way we/ animals can

Technology cannot create but is created

something without experiencing it
