A lot of the criticisms of the Jaynes hypothesis tend to surround the word “consciousness,” which Jaynes defined very precisely for the sake of his argument (internal mind space, analog I, and something else, been a while since I read origin of consciousness).
Either way I’d heavily recommend Origin of Consciousness, it’s an endlessly entertaining piece of work.
