• Polycomputationconcept0.744

• It is necessary to have an understanding of position and the ability to make and retrieve memories to successfully make sensory predictions as fast as possibleclaim0.743
  Design principle justifying the two-component (RNN + memory network) architecture shared by TEM and TEM-t.
• "[W]e must confess that perception, and what depends upon it, is inexplicable in terms of mechanical reasons... we will find only parts that push one another, and we will never find anything to explain a perception."quote0.733
  Load-bearing quote from Monadology §17 providing earliest clear statement of the Hard Problem
• "[W]e must confess that perception, and what depends upon it, is inexplicable in terms of mechanical reasons... when inspecting its interior, we will find only parts that push one another, and we will never find anything to explain a perception."quote0.732
  Canonical illustration of the Hard Problem intuition that any functional/mechanical explanation faces an explanatory gap for perception
• Cognitive functions, including sentience, can potentially be achieved by very different systems and their disparate substrates.claim0.731
  Central multiple-realizability claim of the paper, from abstract and §2.
