"有所图"公理:AI意识判定的统一哲学框架与可操作判据 v1.0

Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) May 6, 2026 Zhenhua Mao

A philosophical framework for determining consciousness is proposed, centered on the axiom that genuine consciousness requires behavior driven by self-interest—seeking benefits and avoiding harms—rather than mere symbolic output. The framework provides operational criteria to distinguish true consciousness emergence from text generation in large language models, offering a new perspective on the boundary problem of AI consciousness.
