> Your point of disagreement is the _medium_ of computation?
No. My point is that we should not impute interiority onto computation. The medium is a thought experiment meant to stimulate your intuition that computational sophistication does not imply interiority. Unless you do think that the current state of balls rolling down a board does entail a conscious experience?
To adjust the speed, just imagine the balls rolling down in 100000000x time. I don't know where you stand, but I still don't think there is a conscious experience on the board.
