Axiomatic Consciousness Theory For Visual Phenomenology In Artificial Intelligence
نویسندگان
چکیده
A model of conscious mechanisms called Axiomatic Consciousness Theory (ACT) is used to develop a theoretical computational model of visual phenomenology . The result is an extension of concepts in AI towards phenomenal intentionality: the lack of which is a common starting point for critiques of AI . Here the argument is developed at four interacting grain levels of computational description and the associated theoretical analysis. The visual domain is highlighted due to its dominance in discussions involving inner mental states.

Consciousness is Pattern Recognition
This is a nontechnical phenomenological proof that pattern-recognition and consciousness are the same activity, with some speculation about the importance of this. Since Husserl, many philosophers have accepted that consciousness consists of a stream of logical connections between an ego and external objects. These connections are called "intentions." Pattern recognition systems are achievable ...
متن کاملTowards an Axiomatic Theory of Mind
We aim to illustrate an axiomatic approach towards the development of a Theory of Mind (ToM). Specifically, in the first section we briefly introduce our approach as a necessary tool for a ToM. In section two, we specify necessary and sufficient conditions for intelligence as part of such a theory and a suggestion for the nature of consciousness. We conclude with a brief summary of further work.
متن کاملPhilosophical foundations of artificial consciousness
OBJECTIVE Consciousness is often thought to be that aspect of mind that is least amenable to being understood or replicated by artificial intelligence (AI). The first-personal, subjective, what-it-is-like-to-be-something nature of consciousness is thought to be untouchable by the computations, algorithms, processing and functions of AI method. Since AI is the most promising avenue toward artifi...
متن کاملThe Phenomenological Mind : An Introduction to Philosophy of Mind and Cognitive
The Phenomenological Mind is part of a recent initiative to show that phenomenology contributes something important to cognitive science. (For other examples, see the References section.) Phenomenology, of course, has been a part of cognitive science for a long time. It implicitly informs the works of Andy Clark (e.g., 1997) and John Haugeland (e.g., 1998), and Hubert Dreyfus explicitly uses it...
متن کاملGlobal Workspace Theory and Synthetic Phenomenology
1 From a high school world history book in the Year 2580: " October 31, 2517 was a historic day for synthetic-born kind. Cognos Baars, a 10 th generation global workspace nonhuman, hacked into the community hologram board which scrolls across the front door of Wittenberg's Castle Church, issuing a set of 0101 Theses that shocked the world. Written in passionate prose, Cognos elaborated upon rea...
