Consciousness is inherently temporal. Our "AI-s" should not be prompt-based, but have an event loop which is always "thinking" about the things that are encoded

Consciousness is inherently temporal. Our "AI-s" should not be prompt-based, but have an event loop which is always "thinking" about the things that are encoded in it, inputs it's currently receiving, and previous inputs it has received so far.
- nh23423fefe 4y agoDoes this mean anything? What is something inherently spatial or partial temporal?
- hackinthebochs 4y agoA wave is inherently temporal
- nh23423fefe 4y agoWhat does this mean? Waves are characterized as spatially propagating phenomenon. Maybe you mean oscillation? Sure time varying values exist. What work is the word inherently doing? An how does that relate to consciousness?
- hackinthebochs 4y agoThe concept of propagation depends on the concept of duration. The point is to demonstrate an entity that is constituted by duration. The relation to consciousness is that some take it to be also inherently constituted by duration. In other words, consciousness is inherently a process/dynamic. E.g. if you suspend the movement of molecules in a brain such that it contains no dynamics, is the brain undergoing any conscious experience during this period of suspended animation? Some think the answer is no.

- hackinthebochs 4y ago>Every phenomenon is temporal. But not every object is necessarily temporal by constitution. >if you perform an unphysical action then blobs of matter dont have physical properties, ok. And here we pretend thought experiments are uninformative.
