Chalmers' conceivability-possibility inference requires 'ideal conceivability,' meaning conceivability under perfect a priori reflection, which ordinary imagination almost never achieves.

A priori reflection(as the method used in ideal conceivability): Thinking something through using only logic and reasoning, without needing to check facts about the real world.
Chalmers: # Chalmers David Chalmers is a prominent Australian philosopher known for introducing the concept of "the hard problem of consciousness"—the question of why and how physical processes in the brain create subjective experiences like the feeling of pain or the color red. His work challenges the assumption that science can easily explain consciousness and has become central to modern debates about the mind and human experience. He matters because he fundamentally shaped how philosophers and scientists think about what makes consciousness uniquely difficult to understand.
Conceivability-possibility inference(as Chalmers' main philosophical argument): The idea that if you can imagine something happening in your mind, then it's probably actually possible in the real world.
