Great cast, insightful. A few questions that has recently come up for me : Can we create an AGI based off of our materialistic interpretation of our own consciousness? Should we not have to factor in human biology? Consciousness as we know it is very much tied to the chemistry within our bodies. Our feelings, perspectives judgements., motivations etc. Can we realistically create an AGI without also having to create a "biological framework" to provide these motivations? Modelling an AGI after our own consciousness does not seem possible without also injecting our biology into the equation : therefore instilling the AGI with some sort of sub-conscious in order to drive the conscious
