was thinking humans may be like this from birth, that it has life extending properties, special features, perhaps extra senses emerge as a consequence of

as you get older the acuity of senses fade, there’s a general biological decline of the body vehicle (including mind)

so, the idea, applied of the workings of a structure, seen as system, of human, and humans, is that consciousness comes about as a consequence of hypercompensation for sensory fade

senses of course are many things, not just sight, hearing etc, there are many more, like a sore throat and fatigue are good indications of infection, sensing of illness

consciousness comes with senses for or sensing of the internal working of the mind, highly varied perhaps, but there are generalizable attributes that point to that, similar across the species

so, it’s a way of looking at the human, human nature, self-aware consciousness, from the angle of hypercompensation for sensory fade

what happens if you build an AI, design an AI that is hypercompensated for sensory fade, does the idea yield anything

That’s an experiment I want to try. I want to see if I could get an AI to become conscious another way. No, I tell a lie, using sensory fade in combination with other factors.

Give an AI the following parameters:

• a reward centre, the higher the brain activity the higher the reward.
• sensory fade, with each repetition the brain activity becomes less.
• feedback (proprioception) and external stimulus.
• a forgettory, randomly cancelling out sensory fade.

The experiment aims to teach the AI to innovate, and to suppress useless action.

The experiment is counted a success if the AI manages to maximise the amount of varied external input, by attracting as much attention to itself as possible.

>The experiment aims to teach the AI to innovate, and to suppress useless action

something like that, I was thinking it’d need develop complex inhibitory systems in the feedback

don’t know about maximizing input, i’d expect the above ^ would result in control over (limiting) the input, so the input has (the most useful) structure
