Yes, I should have written "philosophical zombie", sometimes
abbreviated as "p-zombie", an entirely different creature. Daniel
Dennett has called p-zombies an embarrassment to the philosophical
profession. Even their champion David Chalmers has said that they are
probably not physically possible, but holds that they are logically
possible, and deduces from this claim that reductive physicalism is
wrong. On the whole, the Haitian zombies are much more straightforward
and uncontroversial.
