Dennett's theory of consciousness explanation is based on the intersection of disciplinary development and the scientization of consciousness research.On the basis of the traditional dualism and the analysis and criticism of Cartesian theater,Dennett gradually constructed and explained his own theory of consciousness.Although in the traditional research path of consciousness,the human mind has the characteristics of "privacy","ineffable","directly understandable",etc.,but its so-called "first-person perspective research method" ignores the The phenomenon of hallucination,that is,the essence of introspective technology is a form of arbitrary reasoning.Specifically,Dennett advocates "heterogeneous phenomenology";opposes the dualistic tendency of "behaviorism";criticizes "pure phenomenology";and finally realizes the scientific study of consciousness through the textual interpretation of heterogeneous phenomenologists.Dennett's explanation theory of consciousness contains many scientific achievements such as evolutionary biology,computer science,contemporary neuroscience,as well as profound philosophical connotations such as memetics,phenomenology,and naturalism.The philosophical path to solve the puzzle of consciousness lies in: widely absorbing the research results of various disciplines;establishing a new theoretical picture of consciousness in clearing the Descartes legacy;exploring the evolutionary phenomenon of consciousness in the bubbling picture;and then deriving the mechanism explanation of consciousness.Exploring the core content and research path of Dennett's theory of consciousness interpretation has certain theoretical significance for the debate on the qualia of contemporary philosophy of mind and the development of the philosophical position of strong artificial intelligence.First,Dennett's dispelling of qualia and difficult issues is both a contemporary expression of a focal point of contention in philosophy of mind,and a means of attempting to reconcile the nature of scientific research and consciousness;second,in the philosophical standpoint of artificial intelligence,with Following Dennett's attack on the theoretical foundation of the "Chinese Room Demonstration",the theoretical support for the feasibility of strong artificial intelligence and the research direction of the virtual machine of consciousness are also more extensive and solid.
