Another practical perspective about finding out the "operational definition" of consciousness is to allow combining many consciousnesses from many sentient beings into one consciousness, and then make such consciousness very happy. From utilitarianism perspective, such can produce happiness much more effectively with smaller cost. Just think about there are 1000 unfortunate souls in this world; what if to combine such 1000 consciousnesses into one being, and then concentrate resources to make such one being as happy as possible, instead of making 1000 beings just a little bit happier with the same amount of resources
From practical perspective, the important point is to find out the "operational definition" of consciousness. If the "operational definition" of consciousness can be found out, then consciousness can be transferred from biological brain to artificial A.I. system to live in virtual paradise (with option of being interactive with the real world at the same time of course). "Operational definition" means what "crucial and minimal" continuity of "self" is to be sustained/continued from biological brain to artificial system. I speculate that proceeding in such manner could much simplify the problem as most of the biological brain states are not necessary to be replicated. Functionalities can be designed and recreated at the new system instead of copied from the biological brain, which is a messy, non-designed biological evolutionary product.
Can consciousness truly be operationally defined in a way that allows it to be transferred from a biological brain to an AI system, while retaining the continuity of 'self' and interaction with the real world?
“Con”sciousness is con-substantial but everything in space-time emanates from the “ONE” consciousness. Ergo, everything is space-time is emergent from consciousness…consciousness is primary!
The Universe "giving rise to consciousness" ... how can something without a conscience give conscience.. my awareness "conscience" came from my Creator... When you understand that, you have the answer to most of the questions asked here...
Out of ALL of the garbage you folks have put out, I have gleaned ONE SMALL PIECE: the concept that Consciousness is a sustained event not unlike Physics, Gravity, Time and Matter. Thank you for that insight. Now, please don't ruin it. I really don't need some theatrical nose-scratching in order to feel like a profound thinker. Apparently there are those who do and you are welcome to eahc other. Want something profound? Read Al Arabis' "Bezels of Wisdom". Lets see how far you get applying all this theatre. 😅😅😅
I see you learned something about yourself. And thats powerful. Reality is subjective, no one ones the truth. I WILL follow your advice and take a deeper look into Al Arabis. Maybe I will make a video about it ;)
