• All cognitive systems have some degree of consciousness.hypothesis0.821
  Gradualism implies that if brains are conscious, so are other tissues with similar mechanisms.

• Is Consciousness Distributed Across Biological Scales Rather Thanquestion0.816
• Consciousness likely distributed across multiscale body components, not localized to brainclaim0.816
  Organs and tissues employ identical mechanisms as brain; lack of direct verbal report does not negate consciousness in body components.
• Different learning systems facing similar computational problems will converge to similar consciousness-like solutions, including potentially biological and artificial systemshypothesis0.815
  Extension of the Universality Hypothesis to consciousness: if consciousness solves a well-defined computational problem, different systems will discover it independently
• We tentatively hypothesize that if an artificial system were trained to perform the same tasks leading to consciousness formation in a human infant, the system would exhibit consciousness as well, by analogy with the Universality Hypothesis.hypothesis0.809
