Lulie asks David Deutsch probing questions about the 'fun criterion', and they explore why it's necessary for rational thought.
They also discuss:
- Difference between mindless fun and fun-criterion 'fun'
- What about conflicts between explicit theories and what seems fun?
- What is suffering?
- Is anger good?
- Debating whether anger is an appropriate response to external suffering
- Creativity, conflicting theories and problems
- Do we need bodies and feelings to think?
- What makes the difference between enjoyable and suffering situations?
