This. I’ve been pointing to Serle for months now on this and soo many people who have never bothered to study philosophy seem to want to weigh in on this it’s maddening.

So, so many bad/shallow takes that don’t seem to realize that people have been debating this for hundreds of years already

The chinese room is rubbish lol. Your brain is a chinese room by that analogy. Individual neurons (forget atoms or even cells) don't understand chinese any more than an arbitrary parameter from an artificial neural network.
