Emergent Language as an Approach to Conscious AI

arXiv (Cornell University) June 4, 2026 Zengqing Wu, Chuan Xiao preprint

The question of whether artificial systems can be conscious remains open, in part because existing approaches either evaluate systems against theory-derived checklists (discriminative) or engineer consciousness-inspired modules directly (architectural); both leave open whether observed structures are artifacts of human language priors. We propose a generative methodology: emergent language (EL)...

Structural basis for psilocybin biosynthesis.

Nature Communications March 22, 2025 Chunyan Meng, Wenting Guo, Chuan Xiao et al. 4 citations

Psilocybin shows significant therapeutic potential for psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy in addressing various psychiatric conditions. The biosynthetic approach promises rapid and efficient production of psilocybin. Understanding the enzymes that contribute to the biosynthesis of psilocybin can enhance its production process. In this study, we elucidate the crystal structures of...
