In this series in three parts:
Can a computer have its own mind?
Is your mind just a computation?
We will see what Computer Science has to say. Don't worry, it's beginner level!
DIY experiment so that you can verify what I say.
The proof appeals to logic and experiment, not to phenomenal experience ("what is like", the "hard problem of consciousness", qualia, the experience of feelings, emotions, pain or pleasure etc)

Based on O.C. Stoica (2023). "Does a computer think if no one is around to see it?" http://philsci-archive.pitt.edu/22880/

In Episode 3, we will see that there is a way to know if your mind is just a computation.
