Yeah, I mean, I don't know where all of this is going, but I do think that the ancients cared WAY more about "embodied knowledge" than we do, and I suspect we're about to find out a lot more about what that is and why it matters.

There's a lot of definitions of bodies. Though I'm unconvinced one is needed. A brain in a box is capable of interacting with its environment far more than such a thing could even a decade ago. Is it the body or the interaction?

As we advance we always need to answer more nuanced questions. You're right that the nature of progress is... well... progress
