• General anesthetics are gap junction blockers.finding0.791
  Gap junction blockers function as anesthetics across plants, Hydra, and humans, consistent with GJs being critical for high-level Self maintenance.
• Gap junction blockade as general anesthesiaconcept0.773
  The observation that gap junction blockers anesthetize diverse organisms, supporting the hypothesis that bioelectric networks implement the unified Self.
• General anesthesia works by blocking gap junctions, thereby dissolving the higher-level Self while leaving individual cells functional.claim0.759
  Suggests that the unified self emerges from bioelectrical network coherence, which can be reversibly disrupted.
• General anesthetics are gap junction blockers, consistent with the role of gap junctions in scaling consciousness.claim0.751
  Links anesthesia mechanism to the bioelectric binding model of higher-level Selves.
• General anesthesia works by blocking gap junctions, thereby disrupting the higher-level cognitive self.hypothesis0.751
  Explains why anesthetics abolish consciousness in diverse organisms, including plants.
• Artificial General Intelligenceconcept0.746
  Target phenomenon; paper seeks unified understanding via world models and life-mind continuity.
• Googleinstitute0.731
  Murray Shanahan's part-time employer and provider of LLM technology.
• Generalizationconcept0.731
  Ability to apply learned solutions to novel circumstances.
