Came for Zizek. Remained for her ideas.

Good to hear, my friend!

[@mattiafabbri8944]

I just heard her critique of psychoanalysis. I don't think she understands the concept of unconscious processes overdetermining our declarative/conscious acts.

Still quite confused about her points of defining a representation and why it’s the wrong way to go about developing tech and approaching certain scientific issues

[@RahulSam]

Could you be a bit more specific, my friend? Perhaps give me a timestamp? Here's the paper we're referring to for a more detailed analysis: researchers.mq.edu.au/en/publications/an-alternative-to-cognitivism-computational-phenomenology-for-dee

@@RahulSam my criticism was regarding a literal correlation between the mathematical definition of representations and connecting that with computational phenomenology… I was very lost with why there are problems with representations… as I find representations to be very difficult to understand myself… representations can be leveraged as algebras or more commonly as Lie algebra/Lie group structures? I’ve been struggling to understand this area of maths.
