Welcome to another episode of Conversations with Coleman.  My guest today is David Chalmers. David is a professor of philosophy and neuroscience at NYU and the co-director of NYU Centre for Mind, Brain and Consciousness.  David just released a new book called "Reality+: Virtual Worlds and the Problems of Philosophy", which we discuss in this episode. We also discuss whether we're living in a simulation, the progress that's been made in virtual reality, whether virtual worlds count as real, whether people would and should choose to live in a virtual world, and many other classic questions in the philosophy of mind and more. #Ad The best way to learn anything is by doing it yourself.

Brilliant has lots of great courses for all ability and knowledge levels, so you'll find something that interests you.
