@jyoshimi I've lightly studied merology but otherwise I'm a naif.
@dougmerritt nice to meet you! I like mereology as a topic, since the "parts" of conscious experiences should somehow be related to the "parts" of brain activity, but what exactly a part is in each case is pretty subtle and mysterious (certainly NOT something like a Lego block). But I tend not to find much need for formal mereology in my work, beyond having a few concepts like mereological sum available. So basically I'm pretty noobish there too
@jyoshimi Nice to meet you too!
akes sense. I'm coming at it from a viewpoint of linguistics and traditional (not LMM) AI.
I've gone back to it several times feeling like there's more to it than meets the eye.
There is a lot of terra incognita in this and related subjects!

@jyoshimi Ah, thanks.
