Matter never creates consciousness. Consciousness always creates matter.
presenter said , neural activity is a cousnciousness, then how he explane ( reincarnation)
according to me , consciousness creat brain activity
Could you please tell me full name of the lecture ?
He is a little too enthusiastic about IIT and equations. IIT and its equations have not been validated regarding its accurate description of consciousness. If he wants equations, Karl Friston will give him equations.
Although I respect what the presenter and what he has to say, I have the strong impression that he doesn't understand rigorous philosophy of science. He seems too eager to embrace the efficacy of mathematics in consciousness, and that is coming from a mathematician.
It's becoming clear that with all the brain and consciousness theories out there, the proof will be in the pudding. By this I mean, can any particular theory be used to create a human adult level conscious machine. My bet is on the late Gerald Edelman's Extended Theory of Neuronal Group Selection. The lead group in robotics based on this theory is the Neurorobotics Lab at UC at Irvine. Dr. Edelman distinguished between primary consciousness, which came first in evolution, and that humans share with other conscious animals, and higher order consciousness, which came to only humans with the acquisition of language. A machine with primary consciousness will probably have to come first.
What I find special about the TNGS is the Darwin series of automata created at the Neurosciences Institute by Dr. Edelman and his colleagues in the 1990's and 2000's. These machines perform in the real world, not in a restricted simulated world, and display convincing physical behavior indicative of higher psychological functions necessary for consciousness, such as perceptual categorization, memory, and learning. They are based on realistic models of the parts of the biological brain that the theory claims subserve these functions. The extended TNGS allows for the emergence of consciousness based only on further evolutionary development of the brain areas responsible for these functions, in a parsimonious way. No other research I've encountered is anywhere near as convincing.
Absolutely amazing video!
