If consciousness arises from matter, then for a stream of consciousness to exist, at the very least, the same atoms should be temporarily involved in the flowing of the river
Why? I see no problem with the consciousness that constantly changes what atoms it is built on.
This modification to the river seems to suggest that there is no such thing as a “stream of consciousness,” but rather only “moments of consciousness” that have the illusion of being a stream because they can recall memories of previous moments.
yes, those are computationalists views. Computationalism is pretty much self consistent since it says that any materialized computation can be conscious, and very similar to illusionism.

Well, OK? Doesn’t seem weird to me.
