Self-attention

A form of key-query attention within a single input sequence; core to Transformers.

framework

TEM-Transformer (TEM-t)
implements
The transformer version directly analogous to TEM, introduced in this paper, offering dramatic performance improvements.
Hopfield Network
analogous_to
A recurrent connectionist architecture that implements associative memory and distributed computation through symmetric weighted connections and Hebbian learning rules. The network converges to stable states through recurrent dynamics, enabling both memory retrieval and combinatorial problem-solving in a fully distributed manner.

cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edge

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

Apparent Self-Awarenessconcept0.849
A dialogue agent using first-personal pronouns and expressing self-concern in ways that suggest consciousness but are actually role play
self-observationconcept0.843
The ability of a model to observe its own state, measured by Koan Battery; can be lifted by contemplative prompts.
Selfingconcept0.813
Process of reifying one's identity as an independent self; meditation practices aim to decrease selfing.
Attention headsconcept0.809
Transformer attention heads that could be recruited to extract different kinds of information (text vs. thoughts).
Self-reflectionconcept0.801
The ability of reasoning LLMs to review and revise previous reasoning steps during inference
Self-reportconcept0.801
The model's verbal description of its internal state, which may be accurate or confabulated.
the selfconcept0.792
The interior awareness, consciousness, and felt identity that each person experiences; absent from mechanistic cosmology.
Self-Organizationconcept0.789
Spontaneous emergence of long-range order in networks; modeled as neural and basal cognition.
