On Human Consciousness
We consider the implications of the mathematical analysis of neurone-to-neurone dynamical complex networks. We show how the dynamical behaviour of small scale strongly connected networks lead naturally to non-binary information processing and thus multiple hypothesis decision making, even at the very lowest level of the brain's architecture. In turn we build on these ideas to address the hard problem of consciousness. We discuss how a proposed "dual hierarchy model", made up form of both external perceived, physical, elements of increasing complexity, and internal mental elements (experiences), may support a leaning and evolving consciousness. We discuss the idea that a human brain ought to be able to re-conjure subjective mental feelings at will and thus these cannot depend on internal nose (chatter) or internal instability-driven activity. An immediate consequence of this model, grounded in dynamical systems and non-binary information processing, is that finite human brains must always be learning or forgetteing and that any possible subjective internal feeling that may be idealised with a countable infinity of facets, can never be learned by zombies or automata: though it can be experienced more and more fully by an evolving brain (yet never in totality, not even in a lifetime).

Humanoid Artificial Consciousness Designed with Large Language Model Based on Psychoanalysis and Personality Theory
Human consciousness is still a concept hard to define with current scientific understanding. Although Large Language Models (LLMs) have recently demonstrated significant advancements across various domains including tran…
An affective computational model for machine consciousness
In the past, several models of consciousness have become popular and have led to the development of models for machine consciousness with varying degrees of success and challenges for simulation and implementations. More…

Human consciousness has been a long-lasting mystery for centuries, while machine intelligence and consciousness is an arduous pursuit. Researchers have developed diverse theories for interpreting the consciousness phenom…
SurveyA Disproof of Large Language Model Consciousness: The Necessity of Continual Learning for Consciousness
Scientific theories of consciousness should be falsifiable and non-trivial. Recent research has given us formal tools to analyze these requirements of falsifiability and non-triviality for theories of consciousness. Surp…
Continual LearningIs artificial consciousness achievable? Lessons from the human brain
We here analyse the question of developing artificial consciousness from an evolutionary perspective, taking the evolution of the human brain and its relation with consciousness as a reference model. This kind of analysi…
