#CONSCIOUSNESS & #AWARENESS

In a dream, you are always yourself in the most absurd arenas. When you wake up, your mind will clear up and the absurdities will disappear. You are both conscious & aware of your surroundings again.

In unconsciousness (e.g. anesthesia), no memory traces are stored. In a wake up, you immediately relate your perceptions to a memory compilation of your most recent traces with certain more distant – but essential – ones.

THE EXISTENCE OF ARTIFICIAL #CONSCIOUSNESS ? 🤔

Can sensitive & reactive features on devices be considered to artificially conscious (AC) ?. Independent entities they aren't, b/c the lack of independent/collective self-maintenance.

Can the lack of evolution based selfish "genes" be substitutet with development based "selfish" algorithms?

#AI absorbs info about its maintenance, but could an advanced #AI (perhaps by self-recoding) invent survival "instincts" (survival instructions)?
