Since the beginnings of computer technology, researchers have speculated about the
possibility of building smart machines that could compete with human intelligence. Given the …

" Consciousness is widely perceived as one of the most fundamental, interesting and difficult
problems of our time. However, we still know next to nothing about the relationship between …

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 have …

Impossible Minds: My Neurons, My Consciousness has been written to satisfy the curiosity
each and every one of us has about our own consciousness. It takes the view that the …

This paper extends three decades of work arguing that researchers who discuss
consciousness should not restrict themselves only to (adult) human minds, but should study …

We have defined the Conscious Turing Machine (CTM) for the purpose of investigating a
theoretical computer science (TCS) approach to consciousness [1]. For this, we have hewn …

Could a machine have an immaterial mind? The author argues that true conscious
machines can be built, but rejects artificial intelligence and classical neural networks in …

Artificial Intelligence is at a turning point, with a substantial increase in projects aiming to
implement sophisticated forms of human intelligence in machines. This research attempts to …

The field of artificial consciousness (AC) has largely developed outside of mainstream
artificial intelligence (AI), with separate goals and criteria for success and with only a …

Consciousness has become a major topic of scientific interest, and dozens of books have
been written in recent years to explain it, yet it still remains a mystery. Science and the …
