Understanding Weak and Strong Artificial Consciousness
Offered By: Models of Consciousness Conferences via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the distinction between weak and strong artificial consciousness in this 25-minute conference talk from the Models of Consciousness Conferences. Delve into the perspective offered by the free energy principle to understand the fundamental differences between simulating and instantiating consciousness. Examine the argument that being a conscious system requires self-organization in physical systems, while simulation only necessitates a mapping between computational and physical states. Gain insights into how the free energy principle provides a precise framework for describing this crucial distinction, and consider the implications for the development of artificial consciousness technologies.
