• Abstract: This paper presents a novel paradigm of the local percept-perceiver phenomenon to formalize certain observations in neuroscientific theories of consciousness. Using this model, a set-theoretic formalism is developed for artificial systems, and the existence of machine consciousness is proved by invoking Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory. The article argues for the possibility of a reductionist form of epistemic consciousness within machines.

  We argue how machine consciousness literature lacks scientific rigour, being impossible to falsify the opposite hypothesis. We also show how phenomenal consciousness is not computable, independently on the complexity of the algorithm or model. Given all those arguments we end the work arguing why the idea of conscious machines is nowadays a myth of transhumanism and science fiction culture.

  We examine algorithms for conducting credit assignment in artificial neural networks that are inspired or motivated by neurobiology. We organize the ever-growing set of brain-inspired learning schemes into six general families and consider these in the context of backpropagation of errors. The results of this review are meant to encourage future developments in neuro-mimetic systems and their constituent learning processes.

  This report argues for, and exemplifies, a rigorous and empirically grounded approach to AI consciousness. We survey several prominent scientific theories of consciousness, including recurrent processing theory, global workspace theory, higher-order theories, predictive processing, and attention schema theory. Our analysis suggests that no current AI systems are conscious, but also suggests that there are no obvious technical barriers to building AI systems which satisfy these indicators.

  Resource theory of imaginarity has been introduced, allowing for a systematic study of complex numbers in quantum mechanics and quantum information theory. We investigate imaginarity quantification, focusing on the geometric imaginarity and the robustness of imaginarity, and apply these tools to the state conversion problem in imaginarity theory. Our study reveals the significance of complex numbers in quantum physics, and proves that imaginarity is a resource in optical experiments.

• Formalizing Falsification for Theories of Consciousness Across Computational Hierarchies [0.0]
  Integrated Information Theory (IIT) is widely regarded as the preeminent theory of consciousness. Epistemological issues in the form of the "unfolding argument" have provided a refutation of IIT. We show how IIT is simultaneously falsified at the finite-state automaton level and unfalsifiable at the state automaton level.
