i’ve recently read the book „gödel, escher, bach: an eternal golden braid“ by douglas hofstadter and had some tidbits from it in mind while listening to one of the recent episodes of the mindscape podcast by sean carroll. that‘s where the ideas for this post came from

"A team of scientists has identified areas of the brain that are activated when a person becomes aware of themself and their thoughts."
Scientists Think They’ve Found the Region of the Brain That Regulates Conscious Perception
"A new experiment suggests that the thalamus plays a key role in humans becoming consciously aware of stimuli their brain receives."

I finished reading Consciousness Explained by Daniel Dennett last night. I liked the author’s interdisciplinary approach to his theory of consciousness. He accomplished his aim of causing me to think differently, and I expect to continue thinking about what I read when I’m less sleepy. One trivial way the book influenced me is by changing my opinion from “hating AI” to “hating how AI is used today.” I think AI can be more useful in research for understanding consciousness, than as a tool for profit. #Consciousness #Philosophy #Psychology #Neuroscience #AI #Dennett #DanielDennett

https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.12188
"Information processing in the brain is coordinated by the dynamic activity of neurons and neural populations at a range of spatiotemporal scales. These dynamics, captured in the form of electrophysiological recordings and neuroimaging, show evidence of time-irreversibility and broken detailed balance suggesting that the brain operates in a nonequilibrium stationary state. Furthermore, the level of nonequilibrium, measured by entropy production or irreversibility appears to be a crucial signature of cognitive complexity and consciousness."

It's insane that we still have no real idea what #consciousness (in the rough meaning of "self-awareness") *is*, while we're debating whether we should/shouldn't build #AI with it.

This is an #acrylic #painting from a few years back. And just as I am posting this, I am reminded of the poem, "Alone" by #EdgarAllanPoe:
From childhood’s hour I have not been
As others were—I have not seen
As others saw—I could not bring
My passions from a common spring—
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow—I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone—
And all I lov’d—I lov’d alone—
Then—in my childhood—in the dawn
Of a most stormy life—was drawn
From ev’ry depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still—
From the torrent, or the fountain—
From the red cliff of the mountain—
From the sun that ’round me roll’d
In its autumn tint of gold—
From the lightning in the sky
As it pass’d me flying by—
From the thunder, and the storm—
And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view—

Scientists have created the most detailed wiring diagram of the brain ever, thanks to IARPA’s MICrONS program. They mapped over 200,000 cells and 500 million synapses in a mouse’s visual cortex, linking structure and function at an unprecedented scale. This breakthrough could revolutionize our understanding of cognition, consciousness, and brain disorders.

The Debrief
Sean Carroll was kind in letting Annaka Harris present her ideas on consciousness, and gently querying them. I think he was too kind. I'm not sure if she's is a devil's advocate - she followed her weakest points with nervous laughter. She was particularly unconvincing in explaining the leap from split brain studies and neurological illusions to everything potentially being conscious. To me it removes meaning from "conscious".
