Consciousness as the Core of Self-Organization
Self-organizing systems may require different algorithms than current GPU-based learning models, as imposing a global structure is ineffective. Consciousness is posited as a fundamental component of a meta-learning algorithm essential for the self-organization of information processing systems in nature. This perspective suggests that every human's ability to learn and engage in complex behavior is inherently linked to consciousness, which is not a product of higher cognitive evolution but is present from an early developmental stage. The notion of consciousness here transcends conceptual thought, existing at a pre-cognitive perceptual level, where the act of perceiving is recognized without fully formed concepts.
