In that case I agree...

Hey Guys

Phil, I agree. Nothing with present architectures can be conscious in a human sense. But there's a lot of clever robot stuff that has been done over time that might be a close mapping of insect consciousness.

I don't think serial computers can be conscious, but I do think that consciousness is a PHYSICAL process, definitely deeply tied to information and quantum physics.

Can we EVER 'build' a conscious 'machine'? Isn't that reproduction?
