What would it mean for an artificial system to possess a “first-person” perspective? Consider an embodied AI architecture that interacts with its environment through sensors and actuators, develops wo...

Neuroscience of Consciousness (NCON) is a peer-reviewed, fully open access journal that provides a unique forum for the interdisciplinary fields of consciousnes

A common objection to artificial or simulated consciousness is that a simulated brain is no more conscious than simulated water is wet. We address this from the perspective of Intrinsic Computational ...

Anti-computational arguments show that externally imposed computational interpretations cannot ground consciousness, but they do not establish that all computational organisations are observer-relativ...

Computational functionalism about consciousness is often criticized for relying on observer-relative interpretations of physical systems. This paper proposes a mathematical refinement of functionalism...

Many systems of interest exhibit nested emergent layers with their own rules and regularities, and our knowledge about them seems naturally organised around these levels. This paper proposes that this...

Today UNESCO’s Member States took the final step towards adopting the first global normative framework on the ethics of neurotechnology. The Recommendation, which will enter into force on November 12

As wearable devices begin to tap into our mental states, UN experts warn that without ethical safeguards, the right to freedom of thought could be the latest casualty of unchecked innovation.

Abstract. In this study, we explore how the notion of meta-representations in higher-order theories (HOT) of consciousness can be implemented in computatio

Can machines ever become conscious? A central debate in this context concerns the question whether consciousness requires biological states. Within this debate, there exists a fundamental dispute betw...
