Consciousness in a Machine

Year: 2024

Type: preprint

Abstract: No issue in neuroscience has attracted more controversy than the phenomenon of consciousness. Common to these debates has been assumption that “only brain matter gives rise to consciousness” (Koch, 2004). Here we forego this prejudice and consider the elements a non-biological machine would need to be conscious.
