Mysteries of Consciousness: why do we know we exist?
from Lights Out Library: Sleep Documentaries · host Olimpia Pérez
What is this subjective experience, this awareness of existence, that we call consciousness? In tonight's episode, we will examine some of the aspects of this philosophical, scientific, and spiritual question. Is consciousness a binary thing, or is it a kind of continuum with different "levels"? Do animals experience a degree of consciousness and how can it be inferred or measured? Is it reducible to biology, is it the product of the treatment of information, is it something immaterial and detached from the physical world? Could an AI acquire consciousness from a silicon substrate, and if yes, what would be the pre-conditions and consequences? These are some of the questions we will try to answer or at least try to understand better. #sleep #bedtimestory #asmr #sleepstory #consciousness #philosophy #science Welcome to Lights Out Library Join me for a sleepy adventure tonight.
