Scientists outline what AI consciousness would require

Original: Scientists identify what it takes for AI to become conscious

Researchers have put forward a set of criteria describing what would be needed for an artificial intelligence system to become conscious, drawing on current theories of consciousness from neuroscience and philosophy. Physicist and science commentator Sabine Hossenfelder has broken down the findings for a wide audience, and the work is fuelling debate online about whether today's large AI models could ever meet the threshold, or whether consciousness remains out of reach for machines.

Why now: Rapid advances in AI have made questions about machine consciousness newly urgent and widely debated.
