Evaluate panpsychism as a solution to the hard problem of consciousness.
📝 Konten Prompt
Construct a theoretical argument evaluating the merits and flaws of panpsychism in addressing the 'hard problem' of consciousness. Compare the panpsychist view that consciousness is a fundamental feature of all physical matter against physicalist theories and emergentism. Discuss the 'combination problem'—specifically, how micro-conscious entities might combine to form macro-conscious experiences—and analyze whether panpsychism offers a more coherent ontology than competing theories.
