We see #consciousness in #AI the same way we see faces in clouds, says neuroscientist Anil Seth. He explores the all-too-human tendency to project inner life onto machines that are brilliant mimics, not sentient beings, and gives a definitive answer to the urgent question: Will AI ever gain consciousness?

Richard Dawkins’s chatbot isn’t conscious: it’s just all talk

The acclaimed scientist spent time with Anthropic’s ‘Claudia’ and couldn’t believe she wasn’t sentient. But his own work has taught us that complexity can exist without a divine spark, writes neuroscientist Anil Seth

Dommage qu'il soit introuvable en français, mais le livre d'Andrew Gallimore est vraiment génial (si on s'intéresse aux mondes que produit la DMT)

Wie kommt es eigentlich, dass niemand so ein wichtigiges und erfolgreiches Buch (#BeingYou von #AnilSeth) auch nach 4 Jahren niemand ins Deutsche übersetzt hat? 🤔

Sincere thanks to whichever mystery individual ordered me a copy of Anil Seth's 'Being You - A New Science of #Consciousness'!

I'm guessing it was someone saying thank you for something nice I may have done..? Well, whoever you are, you really shouldn't have: if I did happen to do something nice, I can assure you it was quite unconsciously 🙃
