Abstract
The problem of calculating the proper feedback, generating or composing it, and then presenting it to you in real time is going to be computationally intractable on even the fastest computer ... our evil scientists will be swamped by combinatorial explosion as soon as they give you any genuine exploratory powers in this imaginary world.... [M]aking a simulated coin out of nothing but organized nerve stimulations is beyond human technology now and probably forever. One conclusion we can draw from this is that we are not brains in vats in case you were worried. (Dennett, pp. 5-7)
