Embodied artificial intelligence in science fiction

Prometeica August 11, 2022 Andrea Pace Giannotta

In this paper, I explore the fruitful relationship between science fiction and philosophy regarding the topic of artificial intelligence. I establish a connection between certain paradigms in the philosophy of mind and consciousness and the imagination of possible future scenarios in sci-fi, especially focusing on the different ways of conceiving the role of corporeality in constituting...

A Transmissive Theory of Brain Function: Implications for Health, Disease, and Consciousness.

NeuroSci August 9, 2022 Nicolas Rouleau, Nicholas Cimino

Identifying a complete, accurate model of brain function would allow neuroscientists and clinicians to make powerful neuropsychological predictions and diagnoses as well as develop more effective treatments to mitigate or reverse neuropathology. The productive model of brain function, which has been dominant in the field for centuries, cannot easily accommodate some higher-order neural...

The Enactive and Interactive Dimensions of AI: Ingenuity and Imagination Through the Lens of Art and Music.

Artificial Life August 4, 2022 Maki Sato, Jonathan Mckinney 6 citations

Dualisms are pervasive. The divisions between the rational mind, the physical body, and the external natural world have set the stage for the successes and failures of contemporary cognitive science and artificial intelligence.1 Advanced machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) systems have been developed to draw art and compose music. Many take these facts as calls for a radical...

Can the Integrated Information Theory Explain Consciousness from Consciousness Itself?

Review of Philosophy and Psychology August 3, 2022 Niccolò Negro

In consciousness science, theories often differ not only in the account of consciousness they arrive at, but also with respect to how they understand their starting point. Some approaches begin with experimentally gathered data, whereas others begin with phenomenologically gathered data. In this paper, I analyse how the most influential phenomenology-first approach, namely the Integrated...

Enactive and simondonian reflections on mental disorders.

Frontiers in Psychology August 3, 2022 Enara García, Iñigo R. Arandia 18 citations

As an alternative to linear and unidimensional perspectives focused mainly on either organic or psychological processes, the enactive approach to life and mind—a branch of 4-E (embodied, embedded, enactive, extended) cognitive theories—offers an integrative framework to study mental disorders that encompasses and articulates organic, sensorimotor, and intersubjective dimensions of embodiment....

On the independence between phenomenal consciousness and computational intelligence

arXiv Preprint Archive August 3, 2022 Eduardo C. Garrido-Merchán, Sara Lumbreras preprint

Consciousness and intelligence are properties commonly understood as dependent by folk psychology and society in general. The term artificial intelligence and the kind of problems that it managed to solve in the recent years has been shown as an argument to establish that machines experience some sort of consciousness. Following the analogy of Russell, if a machine is able to do what a...

Vom Problem zur Befreiung

Deutsche Heilpraktiker-Zeitschrift August 1, 2022 Matthias Ennenbach

Summary Immer mehr Menschen öffnen sich für die östliche Philosophie und Spiritualität und wünschen sich die Aufnahme dieses universellen Bezuges und entsprechender Methoden in die psychotherapeutische Behandlung. Die buddhistische Psychotherapie geht davon aus, dass Probleme sehr stark durch unseren Verstand mitgestaltet werden, und nutzt – im Anschluss an die allen Verfahren gemeinsame...

Unconscious information integration: A replication and the role of spatial window in masking experiments.

Cognition August 2022 Filip Van Opstal, Molly Rooyakkers

Consciousness and high-level information integration have commonly been closely related to each other (Baars, 2002; Dehaene & Naccache, 2001; Tononi, 2004). Different results, however, have challenged this assumption by showing that information integration can occur for stimuli presented outside of conscious awareness. More recently, a re-examination of some of the data and different...

Cognitive States while Mind Wandering and Associated Alterations in Time Perception

August 1, 2022 Megan E. Kelly

Time perception is a fundamental aspect of consciousness related to mental health. One cognitive state related to time perception is mind wandering (MW), defined as having thoughts unrelated to the current task. Little research has directly assessed the relationship between these two constructs, despite the overlap in clinical significance and the shared importance of attention for healthy...

Phenomenologists on Perception and Hallucination: Husserl and Merleau‐Ponty

Philosophy Compass August 1, 2022 Søren Overgaard

Abstract There is a chasm in current analytic philosophy of perception between disjunctivists (and naïve realists), on the one hand, and ‘conjunctivists’ (intentionalists), on the other. For more than a decade, scholars of phenomenology have debated how classical phenomenologists such as Husserl and Merleau‐Ponty are to be located vis‐à‐vis this chasm. While there seems to be an emerging...
