Overview
Explore a thought-provoking conference talk that delves into the nature of consciousness and artificial intelligence. Examine the intersection of cognitive science, philosophy of mind, and AI to understand how computational systems like our brains give rise to perception, mental representation, agency, and selfhood. Investigate the concept of intelligence as a model-creating ability for environmental regulation, and ponder how this process leads to conscious awareness. Part of the "From Computation to Consciousness" series, this presentation covers epistemology, the emergence of social structures, and the mind-universe relationship through the lens of computer science and AI concepts. Engage with topics such as fractals, local compression, language, computational mathematics, free will, and the AI race while considering profound questions about the nature of reality and consciousness.
