SUMMARY:Why the Hard Problem Hardly Matters
DESCRIPTION:extra sessionI carefully delineate what the hard problem of con
 sciousness is by first  distinguishing different conceptions one may have 
 of it. According to  the conception I will advocate\, &nbsp\;the hard prob
 lem of consciousness is  the problem of explaining an arbitrarily picked t
 oken (or APT)  phenomenal state in terms of that which is not phenomenally
  conscious. With this in place\, I then argue that the hard problem hardly
  matters.  For if one&rsquo\;s goal is to explain phenomenal consciousness
 \, the hard  problem need not necessarily be solved in order to do so. And
  if one&rsquo\;s  goal is to defeat physicalism\, virtually every theory o
 f mind shares  physicalism&rsquo\;s fate when it comes to the hard problem
 .
