cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edgeEntities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.
- Consciousness also comes in degrees and kinds, and is fundamentally tied to goal-directed activity.claim0.835TAME's gradualist stance extends to sentience; goal-directedness is the key.
- Core theoretical claim connecting consciousness to biological learning
- CIMC's characterization of the current state of the field motivating its research program
- Extends the gradualist perspective to sentience.
- Inspired by Feynman's dictum; grounds CIMC's constructive methodology over purely philosophical analysis
- Genesis Hypothesis claim that consciousness forms before rather than from cognition
