The top isn't in one part of the brain, it's the product of multiple parts working in concert, PFC, basal ganglia, cerebellum, etc... The same goes for the other levels of the hierarchy, on the input and output side.
Well, for what it's worth I think that the 'screen of cognition' is actually an affine separating hypersheet composed of an aggregation of hyperplanes generated by massive assemblies of small world networks applying differential and integral calculus, (classification and regression) rather like SVM. . .. . I put it to Dr. Hannah Fry a few years ago. She replied 'possible'. This fits well with the Dr.Eric Berne SA/TA transactional analysys psychological model . (PAC). . but that's just my view. I'm probably wrong.
Great talk thanks. Are concepts such as: "Autonomous" and ""Autonomic", inherent and or emergent in this approach. I can appreciate that with the hierarchical and coarse graining considerations that a cognitive agent might have some potential for both. I'm curious about the value of come "cross cutting" capability ( possibly context aware ) in the policy selection that might be triggered Autonomically in the face of a threat and therefore interrupt a currently executing plan. Similarly but higher up in one's hierarchy of needs one might decide Autonomously to switch plans from the growing cascading wight of the underlying predictive coding errors coming from below.
Hello Maxwell, would you be happy with a description of what is within the Markov blanket as a "weakly asymmetrically connected system?" Can you recommend any grad/postgrad lectures on the subject? Is there anybody in the field interested in autistic spectrum behaviour disorders? My guess is, this might be systems getting stuck in some "free energy landscape traps", if you will. Thanks for you work Suav
From the FEP perspective, are the phenomena of conscious experience computations or are they non computational. like muscle, bone, or ligaments? Explanation?

The write only Markov blanket is more like a Schopenhauerian will, rather than a Cartesian rational agent.
