Description
In the mid 70s, Steve Thaler began toying with
rudimentary artificial neural networks. Soon after, he began to
experiment with colonies of neural networks that launched into
brainstorming sessions with one another to produce the equivalent of
stream of consciousness and contemplation.As he
observed these neural architectures developing attitudes about
themselves, he began to wonder if all of the sublime aspects of human
cognition, including feeling and self-awareness, could be captured in
inorganic systems of switches and interconnections. Ultimately, his
answer was yes.
