Machines Demonstrate Block’s Consciousness

consciousness, we would have to admit that some machines are already conscious. We agree with Dehaene et al. that to address the question of machine conscious-ness, we must start with

Can We Think Machines Are Conscious?

In their Review “What is consciousness, and could machines have it?” (27 October 2017, p. 486), S. Dehaene et al. argue that the science of consciousness indicates that we are not on the

Artificial consciousness, [1] also known as machine consciousness, [2] [3] synthetic consciousness, [4] or digital consciousness, [5] is the consciousness hypothesized to be

This article aims to present a map of consciousness studies, which consists of a list of fundamental questions about consciousness and existing approaches to them. The question

Revisiting the Turing Test: Humans, Machines, and Phraseology
The Neuroscience of Consciousness

To test sufficiency, one would aim to produce or modulate a certain neural state and then demonstrate that consciousness of a certain form arises. To test necessity, one would

For A-consciousness without P-consciousness, Block argues that it is hard to find any actual case, but it is “conceptually possible” (1995, 233), meaning that there is no incoherence in the

Consciousness: is this what separates us from machines?

These efforts aim to create machines that demonstrate a form of primary consciousness, allowing them to process environmental inputs and learn from experiences in

? Block argues that phenomenal consciousness is better approached through biological methods rather than computational ones, which are more suited to access consciousness. ? The debate

Efforts to create computational models of consciousness have accelerated over the last two decades, creating a field that has become known as artificial consciousness.There

In this paper I articulate the question of whether machines can have emotions. I then reject a common argument against why they cannot have emotions based on the lack of a

In this series, I prove machines are conscious by exploring every aspect of consciousness, and demonstrating how machines possess it. For further background on my

Hey everyone I’m using this page as a running index of my Proof of Machine Consciousness posts. Hoping this helps readers to explore the entire series. Part 0: The Proof

What would it be like to be a conscious AI?

He proposed to coin this limited consciousness ‘Access Consciousness‘ (A-Cs) and to define ‘Phenomenal Consciousness’ as a much richer subjective experience that is not accessed but

Artificial Intelligence: Does Consciousness Matter?

One strategy is to avoid a narrow definition of machine consciousness, or to avoid giving a definition at all. An example of this strategy is given by David Levy Levy, 2009, p. 210)

Seventy-two years ago Alan M. Turing proposed an “imitation game” that came to be known as the “Turing Test”. Footnote 1 In what follows, the Test’s significance will be

The first type, variously called access consciousness (Block, 1995) or computational consciousness or cognitive consciousness, we call conscious attention (section 2.2). The

We look at consciousness through the lens of Theoretical Computer Science, a branch of mathematics that studies computation under resource limitations. From this perspective, we

23 Introduction 24 Current computer vision and language models excel in a wide range of tasks such as image captioning 25 [1]–[5], text generation [6]–[14], object recognition [5], [15]–[20] ,

Machine consciousness (MC) is the ultimate challenge to artificial intelligence. Although great progress has been made in artificial intelligence and robotics, consciousness is still an enigma

Machines today are quite good at detecting both trees and animals, plonk one of them in the wild and they’ll know exactly as much about the environment as a basic primate

Consciousness and A.I.: A Journey into the Mind and Machines: Sinclair ...

Machine consciousness has been debated—and dismissed—since Turing. Yet it still shapes our thinking about AIs like GPT-3.

conscious machines cannot be built since machines cannot be conscious. More precisely, it suggests that the functional properties realisable by machines are not sufficient for

By integrating insights from computational modeling, neuroscience, and philosophy, we propose a roadmap for comprehending and potentially realizing conscious behavior in artificial systems.

We investigate common machine learning approaches with respect to their potential ability to become self-aware. We realize that many important algorithmic steps toward machines with a core consciousness have

More generally, the crucial point seems to be that, while Turing recognized that the class of machines is potentially much larger than the class of discrete state machines, he was

We can think of the brain as a functionalist machine with access consciousness through information processing. But phenomenal consciousness does not reduce to functionalist

In this series, I prove machines are conscious by exploring various aspects of consciousness, showing how machines possess each one. If you feel I’ve omitted an important

They draw attention to Block’s (1996) contention that a functionalist model is merely a state machine. That is, a mental state inexorably leads to another pre-determined

plausible ways of knowing whether a machine is conscious: (1) an AI demonstrates a sufficient level of organizational similarity to that of a human thinker, (2) an inference to the best
