One person's modus ponens...: Comment on "The Markov blanket trick: On the scope of the free energy principle and active inference" by Raja and colleagues (2021)

원문 초록

In this comment on "The Markov blanket trick: On the scope of the free energy principle and active inference" by Raja and colleagues (2021) in Physics of Life Reviews, I argue that the argument presented by the authors is valid; however, I claim that the argument contains a flawed premise, which undermines their conclusions. In addition, I argue that work on the FEP that has appeared since the target paper was published underwrites a cogent response to the issues that are raised by Raja and colleagues.
