Other communities that share members with this one — cross-cutting threads or papers that sit at the seam between two themes.
Claims (2)
- It is highly implausible that all sentient life in the universe achieves felt states using the neural circuitry underlying human Consciousness on earth.Reinforcement of substrate independence: Earth-like neural circuits are unlikely to be the sole substrate.
- Current research examines distributed cognition and AI consciousness separately rather than as integrated phenomena where machine consciousness emerges from inter-agent cognitive processes.Main interpretive assertion of the search result; identifies the gap between existing literature domains and the novel research direction.
Findings (1)
- Greater multiscale scale-integration distinguishes wakeful conscious states from anaesthetic states.Empirical evidence (Milinkovic et al., 2025b) supporting scale-inseparability as consciousness correlate.
