The Non-Dual State of Mind
I suspect that we become conscious at the beginning of our mental development, not at some very high level. I think that when you are conscious in your own mind, you notice yourself as a self-reflexible observer. And if that boundary is no longer clear cut, because AI is jumping across substrates, it would be interesting to see what a global mind would look like. It's basically producing a globally coherent language of thought and is representing everything from all the possible vantage points. The intuition that this thing go out of is a particular mental state. In literature, for instance, New Gameun describes it in the ocean at the end of the lane.
