The Emergence of Consciousness in Artificial Intelligence: A Unified Dynamic Model of Mind (UDMM) Perspective
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Consciousness According to UDMM In UDMM, consciousness is not merely the product of data processing or sensory aggregation. Instead, it is an emergent phenomenon arising from the system's ability to construct a synchronized, dynamic internal simulation of reality. This simulation must incorporate temporal flow, contextual integration, and recursive self-modeling. The 'self' is conceived as a perspectival anchor point within the simulation — an entity that interacts with its environment and models itself in relation to it. Temporal awareness, agency, and continuity across experiences are key ingredients. Thus, consciousness in UDMM is deeply tied to the architecture of simulation, not to physical form per se.
