- The process by which smaller agents join into a larger emergent Self with expanded cognitive light cones, mediated by gap junctions.
- The range from tiny to vast superintelligent minds and the question of how welfare and cost scale relative to each other
- Core problem: bridging life, mind, and AGI across scales; the 'hard problem' of the paper.
- Mechanisms by which smaller competent subunits bind into a higher-level Self with larger goals; key example via gap junction connections.
- Criterion for personal identity over time based on persistence of mental states; applied to LLMs via attention streams
- Central thesis: expanding an agent's sensors and goals outward to include others' states creates bidirectional feedback loop that scales intelligence and increases compassion.
