Philosophy of Mind 4.1 - Functionalism

In this video, I explain the basic ideas behind functionalism. I look at how functionalists face a circularity problem, and then explain the two main methods they have used to solve it: Turing Machines and Ramsification.

I will deal with objections to functionalism in the next video.
