I suspect some of the people who voted are just pzombies reacting like a real person would, but really don't have anything going on upstairs.

It is a great subject.

Also Dev I never argued that consciousness can exist outside of the body. That would be theoretical

I voted yes. But I don't really understand the question. Mostly, I'm just trying to 'yes' to more things these days.

Are you aware of a voice calculating things considering things etc. It’s a simple question

Like, a voice proposes getting ice cream, and then a separate voice answers?

I also wonder if a lack of inner voice is why some people think out loud

I don’t think thought has to have a literal voice.

I already said I have an inner monologue. I also think out loud. I do it because I like it.

People who think out loud are the most annoying people. What did you just say? Oh never mind I’m just thinking to myself.
