Wrote a little microblog on some thoughts on interoception and emotion, curious to hear what y'all think and might develop it into a longer blog post if it sparks any interest :)

Is emotion interoceptive? While I think the role of emotions is basically a kind of conscious representation of a cost function, in line with recent frameworks like "homeostatic" or "interoceptive" reinforcement learning, I'm not convinced that the basis is really in the internal sense of the body.
